Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 26, 2021

The Day Of Judgment Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

We must open our spiritual eyes and recognize that there are thousands of victories being won everyday around the world. We are referring to the victories of light over darkness. The Christian must balance his pessimism concerning the world with his optimism concerning the kingdom of God.

The Christian realist says they are both right, because there are two kingdoms of reality. There is the world order, or that realm in ...read more
