Rewards Of Repentance

Contributed by Mike Hullah on Apr 23, 2003

Repentance is a positive word. As we walk in repentance we can expect three rewards: Refreshing, Restoration and Revival.

THREE REWARDS OF REPENTANCE Matthew 3:1-3 “Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is near” Beyond salvation probably one of the greatest gifts God has given man is the ability to repent. Without an ability to repent man would be unable to enter in to the Kingdom of God. Repentance always leads to a ...read more

The Compassion Of Christ

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 18, 2015

Back To The Future

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Dec 20, 2009

Although much of Jeremiah prophecy was about impending judgment upon Judah and Jerusalem, they also included a call for national repentance and the promise of possible restoration. It is easy to sit around and talk about the good ole days, especially, whe

Exhaustion: Finding Rest In Taking The Sabbath Seriously Series

"hate Speech" According To Jesus: A Refresher Course

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 5, 2022

The Lord Jesus warned His disciples that they would be hated for telling the truth about sin, spiritual death, and the need for redemption found only in Him (John 14:6; Acts 4:12). This message is still hated by the world today. Some things never change.

I want to begin with defining a term describing the attempts of Christians who, no matter how well-meaning their intentions, somehow believe that they can make friends with a worldview that hates them no matter what they do, say, or imitate. They bend over backwards trying to "fit in" ...read more
