Contributed by Paul Andrew on Mar 18, 2021

The trial reveals a political theology where resistance and resilience are faithful Christian practices

Pilate questioned him, “Are you the king of the Jews?” He said to him in reply, “You say so.” Meaning, “is this a personal discovery? Or are you just repeating what others have told you?” In a famous sentence Plato said, “The unexamined life is not worth living.” We may also say the ...read more

Historical Heresies Alive And Well In The Church Today - A Multi-Part Message

31. Romans Chapter 7 Verses 15-25 - Messages In Romans – Gentiles Are Not Part Of Chapter 7 – Not The Battle Of The Two Natures - Message 31 Part 3 Of 3 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 17, 2025

We conclude Roman 7 - the experience of a devout man under the Law trying to keep the Law - but always being defeated. Finally, victory in in the Lord Jesus. Chapter 7 is not a Christian battling sin. The Christian is NOT in this chapter. To say so has confused the whole matter.

Sola Fide - Salvation By Faith Alone Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 27, 2017

Over the past few of weeks we have been taking a look at the five “Solas” that were reestablished after the Protestant Reformation came along in 1517.

Overwhelmed Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 12, 2004

Right Theology, if embraced and allowed to permeate our minds and hearts, produces right worship, a right attitude toward God. The Spirit can then use the right theology and the right attitude toward God to coax us along to surrender ourselves to Him.

Overwhelmed (Romans 11:33-36) 1. The subject of living for God is important. But a lot of times, we want to rush Christians into the Christian life without helping them understand the God they serve. 2. The study of God and His works is called “Theology.” The Greek word for God is “Theos,” which ...read more
