    It is easy to want to give up and drop out of the running. God does not want us to become weary and lose heart. Brethren, We have come too far to turn back now. How are we to run the this race of life?

    In Hebrews 11:1-12:4, we learn that all God¡¦s children go through trying times in life. God uses those trying times to make us more like Jesus. This passage uses three different words to describe God¡¦s discipline in his children.

Are they a sign of God¡¦s anger or displeasure? Do they happen by chance? How should we react to them? Certainly some of our sufferings and ...read more

    As much as our culture, or we, might try, to remove it as a barrier...as much as the world might like to make it into only a symbol, and rob it of its eternal meaning, the cross is irreducible. It’s irreducible in time. It’s irreducible in eternity.

    REMINDING BELIEVER WE ARE CALLED TO BE HOLY UNTO THE LORD. GOD EXPECTS EVERY BELIEVER TO SHOW FORTH THE GLORY OF GOD IN OUR WALK WITH HIM; IN PURITY OF HEART.

    Holiness is the very nature of God. It is impossible for God to sin. It is not about Him not willing to sin; but in His nature He can not sin.
