The God Of Christ Paid Back

Contributed by Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid on Dec 14, 2014

Christ Jesus saved but God warns those who sin of the lake of fire and scripture tells us that Christ Jesus will judge. It is right for Christ Jesus to judge us since he saved us (God saved us through his Son Christ Jesus).

Contributed by Jack Graham on Nov 16, 2016

This is from a transcript of a sermon preached by Dr. Jack Graham on June 5, 2016 Hebrews, chapter 1, verses 6 through 9: 6) And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.” 7) Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Dec 30, 2022

More Than A Prayer (1) - "our Father"

Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on May 31, 2021

The Lord's prayer is one of the first prayer a christian learns to recite. It is a prayer guide given by Chris to his disciples. A careful consideration of it shows that it is much more than a prayer guide. It points us to who God is, from the mouth of his son.

I wish to begin by sharing some of the history behind Memorial Day; however, I have encountered two separate versions of the story on how this holiday began, and so, I am going to present both ...read more
