Permission From God

Contributed by Rev. Duraimony Dickson on Oct 3, 2020

Stupid Is As Stupid Does - Why People Reject Common Sense, Sound Doctrine, Facts, And The Truths Of God

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jun 4, 2022

We are living in an insane world. People hold political power and make stupid laws and mandates. A person who uses reason, logic, and common sense often feels isolated amid all the madness

Even when the choice is clear it’s not always so easy to make the right one. When I’ve made the wrong choice it’s not always easy to admit my sin to God. Nor ...read more
