It seems like a list of very important but mostly common sense ...read more

The Futility Of Religion

Contributed by Michael Stark on May 14, 2022

Religious exercise can become a snare if in our efforts we fail to seek the Lord. Religion for the sake of religion is a dreadful snare.

We Are Made Righteous By Faith (Second Sunday Of Lent, March 5, 2023)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 3, 2023

How would you like to take a test that had a different rule for success? Instead of so many points for an “A”, so many for a “B” and so on, the success of the test would be based on an “all or nothing rule”. So you would have to get a 100% to pass on every test every single day.

WE ARE MADE RIGHTEOUS BY FAITH Text: Romans 4:1-5, 13-17 Romans 4:1-5  What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this matter?  (2)  If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not before God. ...read more

Talking In Church

Contributed by Greg Nance on Nov 21, 2002

Did you know that God has rules about talking in Church? There is an entire chapter in the Bible that addresses this. It is 1 Cor. 14.

Stop Chasing Shadows! Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 9, 2006

Keeping religious rules and observing religious rituals in order to be close to God are only a shadow of the "real thing," a relationship with Him through Jesus.

Contributed by Russell Brownworth on May 30, 2006

Now the question – was Mary really Jesus’ wife and mother of Sarah, the child Jesus supposedly fathered to establish a royal bloodline to rule the earth?
