     | 7,636 views

    Milk is a wonderful, but only till age 5. To grow past that, we must have solid food. The same is true in the spiritual realm. But many Christians live in perpetual infancy. They want only milk. They're geriatric spiritual babies. See God's directions!

    Resolve A Better Relationship With People Series

    Contributed by Mark Jones on Feb 15, 2014
     | 3,796 views

    Last week we discussed what it meant to love with a testimony. This week we will talk about one major obstacle to loving biblically. Below is the outline notes to the message.

    In our relationship to God, we were challenged in a resolve to repent of our sins, to fear God more, to surrender our idols, to think with a godly mindset, to remember His sacrifice for us, and to love biblically. Loving biblically is not a feeling or an erotic passion. To love biblically takes ...read more

    I'd always thought Moses just told Pharaoh "Let my people go." But Moses never said it quite that way. What did Moses actually say... and why should it matter to us?

    Sin Is A Disgrace To Any People

     | 10,287 views

    Now it would seem ridiculous to ignore sin & Satan completely, so they don’t. But what God calls sin in the Bible isn’t necessarily what they consider to be sin. And the idea of a real Satan is hard for some to accept.
