Hard Work And Providence Series

Contributed by Christopher Lanham on Jun 18, 2011

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 3, 2022

What's That Smell?

Contributed by Dr. Robert Crowder on Apr 9, 2021

Peter understood the defilements that the world holds. The ways of the world are an “entanglement” to living the Christian walk. THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF THE GOSPEL MESSAGE IS NOT THE SALVATION OF THE BELIEVER. THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF THE GOSPEL MESSAGE IS TRUE FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD!

WHAT’S THAT SMELL? 2 Peter 2:20-22 For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first. 21 For it would have been better for ...read more
