The Other Sheep

Fruit Of Evil Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021

This is the test that Eve failed, and then Adam followed. The first sin of man, like the first sin in the life of most everyone, was very simple and not sensational.

We have seen in our study of verse 6 that the fall of man was brought about by Satan’s subtlety in getting Eve to gain a good end by a bad means. The danger of allowing the end to justify the means is a real danger all of us need to be aware of, for none are immune to the virus of this danger. We ...read more

Looking For Comfort

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 31, 2023

God's coming does not depend on us. In fact, He has already come. And the only things we have to do to receive him are the same three things Isaiah told the people of Israel so long ago.

That was the summer after I dropped out of my first college; I was living at home getting ready to go to my second one and trying to make some kind of sense out of my life.

The crowds were given the chance to replace him with Barabbas, a known murderer, but they screamed that Jesus Christ had to die. So Jesus ...read more
