  • "but Is It In The Bible?"

    Contributed by David Nolte on Jul 6, 2022
     | 2,063 views

    Many people teach and practice things that are not in the Bible. Here is a sample of my book, "But Is It In The Bible?"

    At the outset, let me assure the reader that I believe that we are saved by grace through faith. We do not earn, merit, or work for salvation. It is a free gift, paid for and delivered by Jesus. But it is appropriated by faith. Faith is always more than mere head stuff. It is more than assent to ...read more

     | 2,508 views

    Have you ever heard of a “promise box”? They were once very popular among Christian people. They were little boxes containing rolled up verses of Scripture, and each verse contained a promise of God which you could select and think about during the day.

    The Refining Fire of God Scripture: Malachi 4:1–3, especially verse 2 But to you who fear My name The Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings; and you shall go out and grow fat like stall-fed calves.

     | 9,142 views

    The Christian life is like running a race. It is not how you start it is how you finish.

  • Abusive Acts Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Nov 2, 2023
     | 948 views

    Here we have two pointed statements in this verse, one referring to the reviles at dignities, the other to the defilers of the flesh. Brute beasts can be smart but they obviously do not have spiritual knowledge. Their reasoning was no more advanced than that of animals' instincts.

    Jude 1:10 - Abusive Acts Jude 1:10: “But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.” KNOW NOT & KNOW The word Know means to gain a firm mental grasp of something or to become acquainted with ...read more
