Human Responsibility And Israel: The Other Side Of The Coin Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 10, 2004

Although God’s Sovereign Grace is a sure thing, it is also true that we are responsible for all of our decisions. We can look at the rejection of Jesus as the Messiah by most of the Jews as a choice they made, even though this was in the plan of God.

Human Responsibility and Israel: The Other Side of the Coin (Romans 9:30-10:13) 1. I love British English, particularly their figures of speech. 2. Some friend of ours leant us some DVD’s of "Jeeves and Wooster." We love that show. 3. Anyhow, in one episode, they referred to marriage as "both ...read more

Contributed by Mark Hall on Sep 23, 2023

A Return To Civility: 4 Keep The Sabbath Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jul 20, 2024

In this crazy world, where it's rush, rush, rush, the idea of a day set apart for rest and reflection seems almost impossible. But, is it?

Israel Inherits Promises Of Old (3 Of 3) Series

Contributed by Eddie Snipes on Sep 2, 2002

Part 3 of 3 Many claim that the church is now Israel. After examining the scriptures, we cannot draw that conclusion without denying the accuracy of the Bible. This section looks at the promised and fulfilled inheritance of Israel.

Israel Inherits Promises of Old (Part 3 of 3) For every curse against the sin of Israel, God follows it with a promise if they repent. It is frequently claimed that once Israel rejected Jesus as their Messiah that God cut Israel out of His plan. From this point of rejection, those who believe this ...read more
