Sermon # 33 - God's Unchanging Laws Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 31, 2023

We are indeed saved by grace, but does that mean that the laws of God given in the Old Testament are no longer applicable to us? God’s word gives us clarity, and helps us to understand how God’s grace and God’s laws apply to us today.

No, not at all; instead, we uphold the Law.” (GNB) There is a lot of teaching on the grace of God and faith that we must place in Him. Grace and faith are fundamental for our walk with God, but it is important ...read more

The Three Places

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 1, 2025
