    I choose not to argue with the words of God found in the Quran, Torah, or Holy Bible because the truth must be spoken whether it offend our sinful souls or not.

    I proclaim a much-overlooked truth in this statement. Allah, Jehovah, God, or however you chose to call Him is the the same God. He is the God found in the Torah. He is the God found in the Quran as well as the Holy Bible. Now in all of the aforementioned books, the reader digest versions of God ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 14,660 views

    Maybe the reason we love our sin more than we love our God is that we don’t really understand how much our God loves us! Paul describes God's love as wide, long, high, and deep. Each of these words will help us grasp more of God's love for us.

You have that one little temptation that keeps getting you, no matter how hard you try? You feel like you could have written Romans 7, where Paul says, “I don’t do what I ...read more

When you dig into them a little, it’s interesting to see how deeply counterproductive they are. There ...read more
