Jesus said to his disciples and to the crowd following him, “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me” (8:34).

Always Choose God's Grace Series

Since we will cover much Scripture today, we will first briefly look at the character of the 2 men, ...read more

God's Zeal For His People

Contributed by Efren V. Narido on Apr 9, 2009

Will God save everyone? Others believe and teach that everyone will be saved. They argue that those who reject God during this present age would choose to follow God in the next life.
