    A Litmus Test Of Spiritual Well-Beng

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Mar 5, 2022
     | 1,280 views

    Using the analogy of a litmus test, this sermon juxtaposes the traits of arrogance over against the traits that reflect the DNA of love. It explores the inclusion of 1 Corinthians 13 sandwiched between chapters 12 and 14.

    “Litmus test” is a process used to determine the nature of something. In the 14th century scientists discovered that litmus, a mixture of colored organic compounds obtained from lichen, turns red in acid solutions and blue in alkaline solutions and, thus, can be used as an acid-base indicator. ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 26, 2021
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,183 views

    The subjective ever-changing cultural mores continue to creep into the church to replace the Bible as the final and absolute authority in the life of the Born-Again Christian.

    The mother of a high school student told me that a few kids in the youth group said they were non-binary (also known as ENBY or NB) and were questioning the Bible about its two sexual gender emphasis. That disturbed me deep in my spirit which led to this message. I started ministry decades ...read more
