Oil In Your Lamp?

Contributed by Scott Nichols on Feb 27, 2011

In Matthew 25:1-13, Jesus tells the Parable of the Ten Virgins, this message from the text asks the crucial question are we ready for Christ's return?

He Overcame Series

Contributed by Richard White on Oct 20, 2012

I gleaned this from a book by RC Sproul by the same title "12 Promises Christians struggle with". The question is Do we believe God or Not?

He Overcame John 16:33ff One of the main reasons we have a problems accepting the promises of God is SIN. Sin comes so naturally to us that our default position is not to believe God. Adam and Eve failed to believe God, when the Father of lies told them “You will surely not die, you ...read more
