    Adopted By God

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Feb 1, 2023
     | 1,084 views

    Can we be adopted by God? How? What does that even mean?

    In ancient times there was often no difference between an adopted child and a natural born one. An adopted child received all the rights and privileges of a biological child.

     | 1,937 views

    We do not deserve any good thing from God, but He is a giver. Indeed, it is “by grace (we) have been saved through faith, and that not of (ourselves); it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast."

    Alba 2-6-2023 THE GIFT OF GOD Ephesians 2:8-10 A tired stay-at-home mom opened the front door of her home to find the preacher from the church, who said, "I’m collecting donations for the new children’s home we’re building. Just asking you to give what you can." "Absolutely," ...read more

    Are all Christians saints? Are we to be holy?

    Sanctify means to set apart as holy, or to dedicate for special use. Did God sanctify a people? And Moses went down from the mount unto the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes. (Exodus 19:14 KJV) Does truth sanctify people? Would that make studying the Bible ...read more

    Contributed by Eric Hanson on Feb 15, 2023
     | 1,975 views

    Many people, including Christians, struggle greatly with the Goodness of God. They get their ideas about Him from circumstances and difficulties, rather than from the life of Jesus Christ. This message can help refocus people to the considering the proper evidence.

    The Goodness of God Pastor Eric J. Hanson January 29, 2023 Read Matthew 19:16-17a. One of the first childhood prayers that many of us learned, went like this: “God is good. God is great.

     | 2,388 views

    The evil and wickedness we are seeing in the world is breaking God’s heart. And He’s looking for a people to work with Him to give those who don’t know Jesus an opportunity to avoid the lake of fire.

    Turn with me to Genesis 18. I want to look at Genesis 18, but probably not for the reason that it was written. Oh, so you are going to take scripture out of context? No. You are getting ready to make scripture mean something that it doesn’t mean? No. It’s just that there so much that we can learn ...read more

     | 2,324 views

    Even though the English word “hope’ may have an element of uncertainty in it, the Greek word in the New Testament always speaks of a sure expectation of some good outcome or positive result. There is a certainty in the hope given in the biblical record.

    God's Word is truth in a world of contradictions and falsehood. We must, as followers of Jesus Christ, stay firm in what Scripture teaches and demands of us, regardless of what the world, the flesh, and the devil say and do.

    The Lord Jesus taught that the end times would be characterized by deceit, hatred of God, lies, malevolence, lack of love, and an intense persecution of believers. False teachers would plague the church (Matthew 24:11-12), and many who claim to be "Christians" will fall away from the ...read more
