    Paul gives us a couple of shocking truths that greatly impact our lives. He tells us from what we are saved and what to do when we are suffering. Absolutely shocking but totally life-changing!

    -We talk in the Christian church, especially the protestant church, about salvation -However, I don’t think that we really know what we are talking about sometimes -Salvation means that we were in danger -What was the cause of our danger? -Or maybe better yet, from what did Jesus save us? -Most ...read more

    A look at two short verses where Jesus says He wasn't appointed a judge. Why did He say that? This leads us to a larger discussion of the dangers of coming to Jesus with a pre-existing agenda.

    A CONFUSING STATEMENT: Why does Jesus say He’s not a judge? - Luke 12:13. - This is an odd statement by Jesus. Why does He say that He was not appointed a judge between them? - It’s important to read the full sentence. Jesus doesn’t say, “I am not a judge” or ...read more
