    Achan discovered the reality that sin has no hiding place and carries with it dire consequences not only for the offender but that are widespread. One man’s sin can destroy a family, a church, and even a nation.

His attitude may have been the same as many today: what I do is nobody’s business but mine. Achan ...read more

    Should evil be done because God can bring good out of it? No, before God a good end does not justifies an evil means or method. For God is always true & He cannot be faithful to the unrighteous no matter who they are or how they think.

Paul has just demonstrated that these securities on which most Jews relied are false or ...read more

    It's not difficult at times living in a world of absolutes, that something is either right or wrong. The challenge comes in the so-called Gray areas, or the subjective areas of our faith. How do we decide what is right or wrong in these areas?

    THE GRAY AREAS OF FAITH ROMANS 14:1 – 14:23 THE PASSAGE THAT WE ARE LOOKING AT TODAY, IS ONE THAT MANY PEOPLE FIND CONFUSING.
