The Universal Gift Series

Contributed by John Sears on Dec 3, 2013

In a culture where tolerance is the highest virtue and where sincere belief is the only thing important to faith, are Christians too exclusive in believing that Jesus is the only way to eternal life? What does that salvation look like?

All Glory And Honor To The Son Of God

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 1, 2022
