Unfinished notes on the doctrine of the resurrection for a Bible study that I am teaching on Wednesday evenings.

Compromised Gospel

Contributed by Samuel M on Jul 10, 2023

More than Satan compromised Gospel is destroying most Christians. A compromised gospel is one that merely discusses a portion of God’s nature and character. They put too much emphasis on this part. They don’t cover about all of God’s attributes and traits.

How To Spread The Good News Of The Gospel

Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 17, 2015

We are to be good shepherds, servant leaders whose job description includes leading others to God. God empowers us as leaders and as followers to build up, to influence and to persuade others.

When we spread the good news of the Gospel, we can expect to face opposition. The apostle Paul was no exception. He boldly preached the Gospel to the Thessalonians in spite of suffering and mistreatment. First Thessalonians 2:1-8 is a model for all Christians to follow, especially when they are ...read more
