Are You Set "Under Authority"?

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Mar 19, 2016

Most Christians truly want to live the kind of life that Jesus requires but often find it difficult to do so. Why? They don't understand what it means to be in submission? This is something Jesus understood and we need to also.

Are You “Set Under Authority”? We know that Jesus operated in faith. He had complete trust in who he was as God’s Son and he knew that all of the resources of Heaven were available to him. If we have the same life in us that Jesus has in him, then why do we not have complete ...read more

We Are Individually Responsible

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 15, 2021

An idea is being floated in our nation that citizens must pay for the sins of the past in something called "reparations." This message asks if this concept is biblical. Praise be to God that He does not require reparations from us!

Across our nation, people are talking about something called “reparations.” ...read more
