You can't give your soul to God, your spirit to the devil, and your body to the world. Our God is a jealous God, but He is also a gentlemen. He is not a ...read more

    Greed is listed as one of the worst of sins - right up there with lewdness, adultery, and murder. But how likely am "I" to be plagued by greed? And how can God cure me of this terrible sin?

    As the days draw nearer for the Lord's promised return, more people are choosing the wealth of the world rather than taking care of the most precious commodity they have, and that is their soul. Nothing of this world is worth the loss of eternal life with Christ.

We put off important decisions at our place of work, or filing tax returns, buying your family Christmas presents on or near Christmas Eve, or asking that ...read more
