You Are The Salt Of The Earth Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 23, 2022

Are You Mma Read? Series

In spiritual warfare there are no rules, no rounds, no countouts, no one to stop the fight. Whoever fights the hardest, the meanest, and lasts the longest will win. There is no draw. You either win the battle or lose the battle.

This week I caught a glimpse of the MMA. Has anyone seen these matches? They are brutal. They take place in a cage where two opponents fight three to five rounds. Every round is 5 minutes in duration with one-minute rest period in-between rounds. Non-title matches must not exceed three rounds. ...read more

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Feb 7, 2025

Why do you suppose it is that people find it so difficult to understand that real freedom only comes when we obey God?

It’s a risky thing to mix politics and religion. It’s too easy to confuse the two.
