Sin Leading Unto Death

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 9, 2022

The Bible tells us that there is a sin that leads unto death - one single sin - and it might not be what we expect. In fact, this one disqualifying sin will exclude us from ever going to heaven and receiving eternal life. So, what is this sin?

If there was a crime worthy of death, what would it be? Would it be murder, rape, spouse abuse, adultery, theft, gambling, or perhaps lying? Many of us would say that murder is worthy of the death penalty; and if any of us had a child that were raped, we would probably believe the person who ...read more

Three Ways We Sin

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on May 28, 2022

The Man Of Sin And The Second Coming. Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

The fact that Christians fall for so much makes it clear why all the warnings are in the Bible to be cautious in following any other authority than the Word of God. There is no other foundation which is safe, for even the most godly and intelligent have demonstrated their ability to be deceived.
