"Not Guilty"

Contributed by David Henderson on Sep 9, 2013

Guilt can be self-inflicted. Not all guilt comes from God. And there can be times when you or I have committed a sin and we feel guilty so we pray and ask for forgiveness and we still feel guilty.

“Not Guilty” Psalm 32:1-11 I have noticed in the last year or so that on certain menus in restaurants and on certain items in the grocery store that they now offer certain food items that are “guilt free.” This also may mean they are taste free. I mean let’s face ...read more

Why Did God Send Jesus? (John 2:23-3:21) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 9, 2022

When we look at Judeans' rejection of Jesus, it's an open question. Did God want his people to be condemned, or not?

Are You Paying Attention?

Contributed by Mike Hays on Oct 24, 2000

Few people make a conscious decision to reject God. Most people just never get around to making a commitment and drift right by the safe harbor of Heaven.

“Are You Paying Attention?” Hebrews 2:1-4 Moms and dads are accustomed to dishing out advice. To try and guide a son or daughter through the narrow straights of life is part of the responsibility of a parent. Some guidance, if not heeded, will cost, but the price is not too severe. “Brush your ...read more

Agape Love

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 29, 2022

The mother said, “Your friend has been very kind.” “Yes,” said the child, “She gave me more; but I gave some away.” When her mother asked who she gave ...read more
