"why The Gospel May Cause An Uproar"

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on May 31, 2022

Have you ever thought about why someone would attempt to burn down a church? Bomb a Church? Persecute Christians? Or Why the Gospel may cause an uproar? This gospel message is a disturbing message because it calls us to a lifestyle of love and self denial.

Subject: "Why The Gospel May Causes An Uproar" Text: Acts 16:16-24 “One day as we were going down to the place of prayer, we met a slave girl who had a spirit that enabled her to tell the future. She earned a lot of money for her masters by telling fortunes. 17 She followed Paul and ...read more

The Name Above All Names At Which We Bend Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 9, 2025

The Son of God was divine already, but He thought it unfair to glom onto that identity. He became the face of the divine compassion and enduring love, God’s hesed, by emptying Himself of all His divine glory, all His divine dignity.
