The Stairway To Heaven

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on May 3, 2021

Have you ever noticed that? The Bible is not simple, and it's not man made. It's all interconnected. The first verse of the Old Testament says "in the beginning God created" it all. Of course we know from Genesis chapters 2 and 3 that things went wrong.

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Jul 10, 2017

worldly possessions can blind people of heaven and living a godly life

Let us continue our worship of God by listening and learning from His Word. But let us never forget that we can be so smart and know the Bible but not actually live out, we would be just fooling ourselves and mocking God. James 1:22 tells us, “do not merely listen to the Word but live it out!” So, ...read more

Citizens Of Heaven

Contributed by Craig Condon on Mar 28, 2015

Our citizenship is in heaven. We need to know which realm we are citizens of, because the answer ...read more
