    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 30, 2021
     | 2,305 views

    The Christian faith is not mere ideas, not a series of facts or depictions of reality, no, it's more. It's alive, and burning brightly like a fire. It's not mere emotions either, there's daily practice to it, a true walking and living of it.

    SEEING THE BIBLE'S TEACHING THAT GOD IS UNCREATED

    "IN THE BEGINNING GOD...." BEFORE THERE WAS A UNIVERSE, THERE WAS ONLY GOD. YOU SEE GOD IS THE ONLY ETERNAL. THAT MEANS HE HAD NO BEGGINING NOR WILL HAVE NO END!

The church at Corinth struggled with purity and spiritual consistency. While they had embraced the Gospel, many continued to walk according to the flesh, and the ...read more

    Are you feeling caught between worlds? Are you feeling troubled by an emotion you can't quite name? Are you desperately lonely? Cut off? Perplexed? Amazed?

    "The loneliness of the Christian results from his walk with God in an ungodly world, a walk that must often take him away from the fellowship of good Christians as well as from that of the unregenerate world. His God-given instincts cry out for companionship with others of his kind, others ...read more

    Well whose to judge, to slander those lost in sin, those who don't know the Father. How do we treat the alien and the widow? Slapping them up the side of the head will not win souls for the kingdom of God.
