The Christian And Sin

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 1, 2014

So what is to be the Christian's relationship to sin? Strictly speaking, he should not have such a relationship!

THE CHRISTIAN AND SIN. 1 John 3:1-10. “Behold,” says John. Pause for thought and reflection.

God's Call To The Poor Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Oct 12, 2009

Poor Christians are special people to God. He saves each of us on the basis of the work of Christ on the cross & not because of anything that we are or have. But the poor are more receptive to the gospel message therefore they seem favored by God.
