Mercy In Judgement

Contributed by Martin Ellgar on Dec 14, 2014

A perspective on John 3: 14-21. Impatience is the symptom of not trusting God to fulfil his promises to us. As a result, we try to make our own plans, go our own way, and hopefully avoid the 'snakes' on the way.

I make promises all the time … and I always intend on keeping them every time I make them. But you know what? I don’t always keep them … not all of them … try as hard as I might.

False Conversion And Its Rotten Harvest

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 7, 2021
