    We love the great times, don’t we? The times when we feel God’s Spirit flowing through us and when others recognize the Lord in us and rejoice. Wouldn’t it be great if every day was like the baptism of Jesus—with the Spirit of God descending like a dove on us and God telling us He is pleased with ...read more

    Repentance: The Forgotten Fruit Of God's Grace

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Oct 31, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,624 views

    People look at the church and cry superficial. Why is that? I believe because it is we have forgotten that saving faith leads to repentant lives. One fruit that has fallen off the faith tree is repentance.
