Debate Over The Sabbath Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 19, 2017

Jesus remained under attack from the Pharisees. Their demands for adherence to unbiblical standards clouded their vision and desire for Christ. Sadly these attitudes remain today. While we must adhere to doctrine, the Lord affords liberty through grace.

Revelation 3__4-22 The Lukewarm Church

Contributed by Charles Scott on Aug 2, 2008

Lack of zeal for the Gospel and Christian faith is a danger for those who are possessed of wealth and feel self-sufficient. Christ calls us from the cares of the world and deceitfulness of riches to restored spiritual vision, real safety and true wealth.

Revelation 3__4-22 the Lukewarm Church "Blessed are the Lukewarm." Christians profess to follow religiously Jesus Christ. If that is so, then surely "Blessed are the Lukewarm" must have been one of his sayings for there are so many, many professing Christians who show no enthusiasm or service. ...read more
