Not By Any Other Name Series

Contributed by Nathan Johnson on Nov 29, 2007

Purity By The Cross Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Oct 5, 2022

How do we get pure? How can we relate to God? We find out in Hebrews 9:14. That purity comes by the cross. Nothing can compare to the power of Christ in cleaning up a life.

The mud puddle water will contaminate the Himalayan snow. Then how do we get pure? How can we relate to God? We find out in Hebrews 9:14. ...read more

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Feb 20, 2025
