Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 6, 2024

Living in a society where all is greed and false is not pleasant, but when this is worst among the religious class, it is especially wicked. Jeremiah faced this problem. The arrogance of today’s western world is almost unbelievable. Serious problems are addressed superficially.

Creator Series

Contributed by Sean Harder on Oct 3, 2012

My hope in this series is that we can come to a good understanding of who the God of the Bible is so that we can share this truth with others, and help those who doubt or wonder. But here’s what we can’t do. We can’t just tell people this is who God is b

Billions of people in our world are asking, is there a God, and if so who is he or what is he. Is there one or are there many? If you have grown up in the church, you probably haven’t been exposed to these questions very often, probably never had to wrestle with the thoughts, but the majority ...read more

Be Alert (1 Thessalonians 5)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 30, 2024

What is the biggest message in prophecy? Is it prediction addiction, figuring out times and dates and personalities? Is it to simply be alert? Let's find out in 1 Thessalonians 5.
