    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Mar 1, 2025
    based on 4 ratings
     | 605 views

    What a person believes about God is the most important thing contained in their mind. It affects everything about them. Specifically, what they believe about God shapes them spiritually, emotionally, and physically.

    Far too many people feel God is remote, impersonal, and unknowable. Because of that, many Christians suffer from an inability to feel forgiven and live with nagging doubts and fears about their relationship with Him. Failure to love and trust God often comes from picturing God as unlovable and ...read more

    What Happens To Those Who Have Never Heard About Jesus?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jun 24, 2024
    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,133 views

    Since Jesus is the only way to salvation, then what does that mean for those who have never heard about Him or the Gospel message that only through Him can a person find salvation?

    INTRODUCTION The Bible tells us that no human being is basically good and willingly seeks after God and His holiness because of the sinful nature passed down through the DNA of Adam and Eve after the Fall (See Genesis 3 – also Romans 5:12,18-19). As a result, all of humanity is dead in their ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,848 views

    This passage tells us that every person ought to walk like Jesus. He is to be the standard for which we are to all reach. Just as Jesus was the manifestation of God to the world. We are to be the manifestation of Jesus to this world.

    1 John 2:3-6 NKJV “How is your walk?” January 14, 2024 A little over a decade ago George Barna wrote a book about trends of Christians in America called “Futurecast,” where he tracks annual changes starting in the 90’s for about 20 years and shows that all the major trend lines of religious ...read more

    Did Judas Do Any Good? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 5, 2023
     | 1,117 views

    Judas got nothing good–not pleasure or honor or power. He ended up being the only person in the Bible whom God judged as being better off never being born.

    Wednesday of Holy Week 2023 It does not seem terribly fair what happened to poor Kerioth-born Judas, as Matthew records it. He sells out Jesus for what in today’s currency would be about $260. Then, seeing Jesus condemned to death, he changes his mind and attempts to return the money to the ...read more

    Spiritual death doesn't always come suddenly; it often begins gradually as a person drifts away from intimacy with God, ignores the Holy Spirit, and embraces sin or spiritual complacency.
