35) Confirming Another's Salvation In Jesus Christ Series

Contributed by Brandon Max on Feb 27, 2022

Religion often makes things confusing - but people can not afford to be confused about the Gospel. Salvation is through Jesus Christ alone. We should all learn to take the time to confirm a persons salvation in Jesus Christ before just assuming they are saved.

Acts Of The Apostles (12 Of 39)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022

Remember that we read in the sixth and seventh chapters of Acts, about the life and death of that great deacon, Stephen.

The church lamented his death, and probably wondered who could take his place. They did not need to wonder, because when the Lord takes a saint home, He always raises up someone to take up where that saint left off. When we got to chapter 8, by the time we got to the fifth verse, we found that ...read more

Some For A Reason, Some For A Season, And Some For A Lifetime

Contributed by Anthony Sosa on Jan 14, 2025

Have you ever wondered why God places certain people in your life or calls you to a specific task? Some callings are meant to fulfill a specific purpose, others to last only for a season, and a few are designed to span a lifetime—all serving God’s greater plan for His kingdom.
