    Sin Leading Unto Death

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 9, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,038 views

    The Bible tells us that there is a sin that leads unto death - one single sin - and it might not be what we expect. In fact, this one disqualifying sin will exclude us from ever going to heaven and receiving eternal life. So, what is this sin?

    If there was a crime worthy of death, what would it be? Would it be murder, rape, spouse abuse, adultery, theft, gambling, or perhaps lying? Many of us would say that murder is worthy of the death penalty; and if any of us had a child that were raped, we would probably believe the person who ...read more

    The True Measure Of A Minister Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jul 18, 2023
     | 2,204 views

    Paul addresses his critics directly and highlighted a few lessons. A true ministry does not draw attention to himself, commits to the work God assigns and lives for the audience of One, his Lord.

    2 Cor 10:7-18 The True Measure of a Minister 2 Cor 10:7-18 – Paul addressing his critics 7Look at what is before your eyes.

     | 7,813 views

    The chief religions of Paul’s time included Gnosticism, stressing gnosis as essential to salvation, viewing matter as evil, and combining ideas derived from mythology, ancient Greek philosophy, ancient religions, and, eventually, Christianity.

     | 2,307 views

    Part 2 continues the examination of Psalm 1, the Psalm of The Two Ways. One is either in Christ or not in Christ; in the camp of the saved, or the camp of the unsaved; living with a glorious hope, or living with a fearful expectation. We draw out lessons from this Psalm.

    The Joseph Principle

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Nov 22, 2023
     | 1,902 views

    But that principle does not apply to the story of Joseph in Genesis. In fact, the example of how Joseph succeeded and was used by God is the opposite of the Peter Principle. It is enough different that it deserves its own name. It can be called the Joseph Principle.

    Grace Versus Works - Saved By The Faith Of Jesus

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Aug 20, 2025
    based on 4 ratings
     | 140 views

    In the Bible, Jesus is often referred to as God's "free gift" (Romans 5:15 NIV). A person is free to reject that gift just as they are free to reject the offer of friendship and love from another.

    Works-based Christianity is similar to the principle of Karma, which is the "law of the deed," a centuries-old worldwide belief that if you do good things, good will come back to you, and if you do bad things, bad will come back to you. It is believed that suffering is a result of a ...read more
