    Muslims, believe that the Torah of Moses, the Psalms of David, and the Gospel of Jesus have been corrupted by Christians and Jews to the point where they are not fully reliable. They believe the Quran is God’s most recent and final work, and that it supercedes all others.

    After many years of waiting and character preparation, God has finally promoted Joseph from the Dungeon to the Palace. In the same manner, we have to be ready when the Lord will promote us. There are three important things we need to remember.

    Could anything be a stronger encouragement to faith than the unalterable evidence of what God has already done for the salvation of His people of faith? God who gave so amazingly to provide salvation will certainly give continued & final salvation.

    Salvation - In Three Tenses

    Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 16, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,277 views

    Salvation is to be experienced by us in three tenses- past, present and future. We have been saved from the penalty of sin. Now we must be saved from the power of sin. Then finally, we will be saved from the very presence of sin.

    It is a good saying that half-truth is even more dangerous than a lie. A lie we can detect at some point of time in the future. But if we believe a half truth, there is a possibility that we would never come to the full truth. Gospel is the gospel of God. It doesn’t need any human touch on it. It ...read more

    The Day Of The Lord, Already, Not Yet.

    The day of the Lord is also the day of Christ’s coming. It refers to his first coming and his second coming. There is an already and not yet aspect to the day of the Lord. Christ has come. The return of Christ and final judgement has not yet come.

    When Joel wrote about the day of the Lord it was understood that this was some dreadful event coming like the invasion of a foreign army or a natural calamity like locusts destroying the crops and causing a famine. There was also a hopeful expectation to the day of the Lord that in the end it ...read more
