Free From the Law Romans 8:1-11 Romans 6:14 contains these words "...for ye are not under the law, but under grace." This words have become, as John McArthur, points out "a sort of an open door for all kinds of misdeeds and misbehavior. This statement, "You are not under law," has been ...read more

Voice Recognition

Contributed by Joe Dan Vendelin on Jun 8, 2024

Learning to hear the voice of the Lord is paramount to being led by the Spirit of God. God promises to lead us by His Spirit, speaking spiritual truths, Spirit to spirit. May we be sensitive to His leading as we recognize His voice and follow Him without hesitation and in full obedience.

New Holy Life

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Apr 18, 2023

Absolutely not! All of us died to sin. How can we still live in it? (Romans 6:2 CEB) May we return to living ...read more
