    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 13, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,056 views

    When we believe in the God who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, our faith also will be accounted as righteousness.

    NOT THROUGH LAW. Romans 4:13-25. The Apostle Paul has already established that Abraham was not justified (made righteous) by works, otherwise he would have grounds of boasting - and who can boast before God? (Romans 4:2). Neither was Abraham justified by circumcision, since that rite was not ...read more

     | 4,640 views

    I dislike the term “born again”; being asked regularly; I mean, just how do you answer this question? I personally find it intimidating and off putting, but I don’t disagree with the logic nor the reasons why it is done, and I will now tell you why.

    Word Count: 2655 Genesis 12:1-4a Romans 4:1-5, 13-17 John 3:1-17 Psalm 121 Prayer. In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit let these words bring honour to you so that your will may be known and understood. Amen. Summary: I dislike the term “born again”; being asked ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 21, 2015
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,901 views

    I don’t watch a whole lot of television anymore, but when I do get a chance to watch, one of the shows I get a kick out of are shows that talk about what we would call “dumb criminals.” Usually these are stories about people who commit crimes for rather unusual or illogical ...read more
