    Many people choose to live in the valley of indecision. Deciding not to choose, is still a decision. Unless you are willing to cross over Jordan, we cannot become who God is calling us to be and never possess what God desires for us.

    Scripture: Joshua 3:1-11 “And Joshua rose early in the morning; and they removed from Shittim, and came to Jordan, he and all the children of Israel, and lodged there before they passed over. 2 And it came to pass after three days, that the officers went through the host; 3 And they commanded the ...read more

    God’s wonders are supernatural acts beyond human understanding. Through extraordinary signs, the God of wonders demonstrates His limitless power, His inescapable presence, His divine protection, and His sovereign purposes.

    "GOD DOES GREAT THINGS" “Who does great things, and unsearchable, Marvelous things without number” (Job 5:9) The Only Living God is a God of wonders. We see God's wonders in His miraculous acts and His mighty deeds, which were recorded in the Bible. Moses proclaimed: "Who is ...read more

    28. Romans Chapter 6 Verses 19-23 - Messages In Romans – Dead To Sin; Slaves Of Righteousness. Sanctification, Eternal Life And Death – Message 28 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 7, 2025
     | 687 views

    Chapter 6 ends the contrasts we had been looking at. We must not use our bodies for impurity but slaves for the Lord in righteousness. Paul ends with being freed from sin with sanctification leading to eternal life. BUT for the unsaved he states the wages of sin is death. A rich chapter indeed.

    28. ROMANS CHAPTER 6 VERSES 19-23 - MESSAGES IN ROMANS – DEAD TO SIN; SLAVES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. SANCTIFICATION, ETERNAL LIFE AND DEATH – MESSAGE 28 [1].

    As intelligence expands through AI and knowledge explodes, reason gives way to cynicism, revealing confusion about meaning, limits, and where trust belongs.

    We live in an age that is quietly intoxicated with intelligence. Not wisdom—intelligence. We live with the assumption, often unspoken but deeply embedded, that if a problem can be solved, it will be solved by someone smarter than us… or by a system smarter than them. We trust models. We trust data. ...read more
