    It is not what you do but who you are that counts!

    Who Are You? When people think of God, church, religion or things of that nature they usually think of a code of ethics, rules or rituals. When asked what is important to God they will quote several "thou shalts or thou shalt nots". They may mention baptism, membership or giving. ...read more

    Jesus said we’d know false prophets by their fruit. Do you know what that fruit is?

    My sermon to you from these verse may seem at first to be rather dark in focus and content, but the message from our Lord’s own mouth in these verses is a dark one, for those who practice lawlessness. Let’s read them first, and keep them before our eyes and our minds as we study them. “Beware ...read more

    Lesson 33

    It’s sad to say, but many in our society today have bought into the notion that truth is relative. In other words, truth depends on how you define it. What is true for one individual may not necessarily be true for another. What is true today may not necessarily be true tomorrow. Consequently, ...read more

    Don't Accept Any Substitutes

    based on 34 ratings
     | 7,468 views

    There is no substitute for salvation through faith in Christ. There is no substitute for those who clearly teach such truth!

    We live in a world of substitutes from substitute teachers to sugar substitutes. We’d agree that as useful as they are substitutes have their limitations – there’s no substitute for the real thing. For example, soybeans don’t make very good hamburgers. Saccharin doesn’t really taste like sugar. ...read more
