    Prophets, to be legitimate, must stand the test of time.

    (If it misses—it’s a lie) Prophets, to be legitimate, must stand the test of time. If the prophet was not completely correct 100% of the time he is a false prophet. Prophecy, to be valid, must predate the event; must be precise enough so as to not be vague; must have enough events described to be ...read more

    Righteousness has always been by grace alone, even Abraham was justified by his faith apart from works

    It might be good to stop for a moment and think again about what it was that occasioned this letter from Paul. Remember that he’s planning to visit Rome but has so far been prevented.

    Against All Odds

    This sermon shows how Abraham believed God in spite of a hopless situation. It also shows how we can believe God when things look hopless to us.

    It is easy to believe God when we can see a physical answer to our situation. Such as believing for : A job when unemployment is low, Healing when your doctor has prescribed medicine, God’s provision when you just inherited $1 million. On the other end of the spectrum, some things are ...read more

    The Choice Of Faith

     | 8,827 views

    Faith is a choice we have to make, even when life disappoints us. We can choose faith, or discouragement. The choice of faith is what God is pleased with, and responds to.

    Life is not always easy. It’s not always fair, nor is it always kind. Life can take some twists and turns that we are simply not prepared for. And although we know that life can be cruel and disappointing, it seems that we are rarely ever prepared for things to go wrong. One of the facts of life ...read more

    Genesis 15 shows that God’s plan for salvation has always been salvation by grace through faith.

    Genesis 15 April 6, 2003 One of the biggest mistakes I believe the early dispensationalists made was calling the OT age Law and the New Testament age Grace. I prefer Israel and the Church.
