Show Me That Our God Is In The Camp

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 21, 2012

Today, I will attempt to show you how often, and in how many ways men try to find a cure for what ails them, rather than take the only treatment that will work, to take the case to God.

What The World Hates...

Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Nov 12, 2023

How did we get to a point where there are those that sit in a church who don’t believe what is necessary to be saved, let alone what it is to be a true Christian? Well, this is a problem of leadership.

I always try to make the distinction between what the Bible calls a church, and what we think a church is…the Bible speaks of the church as the collected body of true believers in Christ Jesus, while we think the church is a building like this and all the people contained within it. This I say so ...read more

Weaponised Narratives

Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 6, 2019

We must guard against creating a narrative as a mask of the truth of God's Word.

For then how could God judge the world? But if through my lie God’s truth abounds to his glory, why am I still being ...read more
