    There are two contradictory attitudes among Christians in responding to the war between Israel and Hamas: Pro-Israel or Pro-Hamas. How should we see it objectively and biblically? And what does this war relate to the signs of Jesus's second coming?

We hear of families who are in distress, because the husband or wife chose to walk away from home leaving their spouse and children in a state of abandonment. ...read more

    A New Year’s Examination

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Jan 10, 2024
     | 3,034 views

    With a new year comes a time for self-examination of your life and your relationship with Jesus Christ. Have you ghosted Him? Have you friend zoned Him? Or do you have a loving relationship with Him?

Paul’s admonition to the Corinthian Christians is especially appropriate as one begins a new year: “Let a man examine himself.” Being that this is the first ...read more

    Misguided zeal is dangerous. The things that most threaten the Gospel and the abundance and freedom in Jesus Christ are caused by misguided zeal. Some things may appear to be good, maybe even seem godly, yet stand in the way of the gospel.
