We have one student who’s going away to college next week, and school’s going to start before long. I’m sure you’re all excited, ...read more

    It is the “final story in Jesus’ public teaching ministry” and only Matthew shares it with us. There are two groups in this passage: those who go into eternal life; those who go into eternal death.

     | 2,124 views

    As I stated earlier, when a preacher preaches on the resurrection of Christ he is preaching on the most important topic of the Bible.

As we focus in on this most important topic again today, with all the Easter traditions we have in this country ...read more
