It's All About Jesus, It's Not About You

Contributed by Jerry Falwell on Apr 12, 2002

Much of our Christianity is concerned about me. Christians emphasize my forgiveness, my answered prayers, my blessings, and my spiritual gifts, and my Christian service. But at Easter, Peter had to learn, "It’s about Jesus, it’s not about you."

Hell

Contributed by Lee Houston on Jun 25, 2021
