    The Problem Of If Series

    Contributed by Ken Henson on Sep 21, 2017
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,165 views

    I don’t like “if”. If if requires me to do something in order to get something good, I’d rather depend on the certainty of God’s work. God doesn’t require much-all I have to do is continue in the faith Paul serves. That’s easy, right?

    A few days ago we talked about our security in Christ. Our salvation and acceptance before God are secure because it is based on Jesus and His work and sacrifice, not on ours. Here Paul presents the other side of the coin of security. If That’s a conditional word. We’re reconciled to God through ...read more

    A look at the reliability of Dreams versus the written Word of God

    I have personally had dreams that were quite profound and insightful on a supernatural level. I have also had some pretty crazy dreams where I was watching from the sidelines as an observer to see where it was going. All that was missing was a bag of popcorn! I am a strong believer that God ...read more

    Alternate Theory Of Creation No. 4 -Progressive Creationism

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 25, 2023
     | 1,419 views

    This is the last of four messages on the alternatives of creation often presented to skeptics and the scientific community apart from what is described in Genesis 1. This final message deals with "progressive creationism", another example of the futility of man's "wisdom".

    We have looked at four alternative theories that some Christians use to either defend or explain to a skeptical world how everything came into being instead of what is clearly presented in Genesis 1. The world system took advantage of our withdrawal from the scientific community soon after the ...read more

    Neglecting to regularly thank God is a sin, but thanking Him frequently blesses His Name and blesses our walk with Him.
