The Rejected Savior Who Will Be The Final Judge Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 9, 2021

The name and mission of the Lord Jesus Christ either brings about revival or riot, happiness or hatred, personal rage or personal redemption. It has been this way ever since His first appearing but all will bow to Him when He returns, whether they like it or not.

There are a lot of people today who want nothing to do with the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ, and that attitude has been around since He departed this world (Acts 1:8-11). Every nation in the world (America included, unfortunately) hates Him and He is not even welcome in a number of ...read more

The Judgmental "Thou Shalt Not Judge” Diversion

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jan 28, 2017

Jesus said to “Judge with righteous judgment” (John 7:24). The Bible clearly gives every Born-Again Christian the authority and right to humbly discern and make the distinction between truth and error, right and wrong, good and evil.

In the pluralistic culture we currently live in the greatest 'sin' is intolerance and self-contradictory moral relativism runs rampant as judgments are suspended so that each person can define what is morally right or wrong for them. The Bible verse most often taken out of context to condemn those ...read more

Does Israel's cycle of falling into sin mean that we in the church are also guilty? Let's look at Judges 10.

Make Us A King To Judge Us

Contributed by Jose R. Hernandez on Apr 9, 2011

There is a very popular saying that states, “those that ignore history are doomed to repeat it,” and this is the theme that we will explore today. Today we are going to learn a very valuable lesson from a terrible decision.

As I have said on numerous occasions, no one is perfect. The truth is that all of us make mistakes, and are guilty of making decisions based on impulse. In other words, we allow ourselves to be led by our feelings, and the worst part is that we allow ourselves to be led by the things of this ...read more
