How Do I Measure Up To God's Standard? Series

Contributed by Chad Bolfa on Apr 14, 2009

Herod - The King Who Couldn't Kill Jesus Series

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Apr 1, 2009

Bid Him Come And Die Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 6, 2021

Following Jesus is an all or nothing proposal, and far too many so-called "believers" are riding the fence, playing a game, or trying to look devout when their character shows otherwise. Either follow and obey Him, or be honest in your unbelief and leave.

In today's social set-up, especially here in America, the prevailing philosophy seems to be, "I want it, and I want it NOW!" Young people are crying out for this at a pace that is bordering on the ridiculous, petty, and unrealistic. I do not see even the slightest awareness in most ...read more
