God's Message To Us Series

Contributed by Guy Glass on Mar 4, 2005

Without the divine intervention of God in the death of Christ, and His resurrection, man would be destitute spiritually, and following Christ would be little more than a glorified Boy Scout Troop. So here in these verses, Paul seeks to explain what it is

And the other extreme tends to see the Christian life as basking in the warm glow of salvation ...read more
