Old Dogs And New Tricks Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 2, 2021

If we take them as stating a truth of a segment of reality, and not all of reality, we will see there are ...read more

This is the last of four messages on the alternatives of creation often presented to skeptics and the scientific community apart from what is described in Genesis 1. This final message deals with "progressive creationism", another example of the futility of man's "wisdom".

The Gift Of Mercy - Understanding Mercy

Contributed by Efe Oluwatosin on Nov 11, 2025
