    There's a Pharisee in me just waiting to come out.

    As I continue to grow and understand the gospel of Jesus Christ and learn more of God’s grace, I have become more conscious of a struggle that rages within me. It’s a struggle between the man I so desperately want to be and the man I have the tendency to be. I struggle, because I know ...read more

    Who Is The Holy Spirit? Series

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 14, 2013
     | 7,537 views

    There are many different views in the religious world about who/what the Holy Spirit is. Some believe the Holy Spirit is an impersonal force while others believe He is a personal being and God. What do the scriptures say?

    These lessons on the Holy Spirit of God are meant to just “whet your appetite.” I am attempting to condense a good bit of what we see mentioned about the Holy Spirit into 4 lessons. This series could very easily be expanded into 15-20 lessons, if not more. I pray that these lessons will ...read more

    Getting to know the Lord up close and personal seems like it should just be a natural thing that evolves with time. I mean after all, if someone were going to take you to the most wonderful place ever known to mankind and you were going to spend eternity

    Jesus, Take The Wheel! 2nd Corn. 5:17 HCSB. 17. Therefore if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation; old things have passed away, and look, new things have come.

     | 12,171 views

    The doctrine of the Trinity is a distinctive mark of Christianity. Though there are “triads” of divinities in many of the world’s religions and philosophies, none of these carries any similarities to the Christian teaching concerning the Trinity.

    Title: What the Bible Says About the Trinity Scripture Reading: 1 John 5:7 Text: For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one (1 John 5:7) The doctrine of the Trinity is a distinctive mark of Christianity.

    Why The Bible Shows The Holy Spirit In Symbols? Series

    Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Jul 7, 2023
     | 1,314 views

    A symbol is like a picture that speaks volumes about things that words cannot describe.

    Sometimes people inadvertently deploy iconic expressions to cut short the necessity of employing so many words in tactful discussions. For example, people often say a picture is worth a thousand words. This expression immediately brings up the image that a picture can reveal more intimate details ...read more
