     | 1,204 views

    Jesus met a young man who thought he kept the entire Law. Most people believe they are going to heaven when they die, and they base their conclusion on being a morally good person. But, is anyone really good enough to go to heaven?

    I have entitled our message this morning “Are You Good Enough?” And the question for us to consider today is this: “Is anyone good enough to go to heaven?” An article from the Los Angeles Times says, “An overwhelming majority of Americans continue to believe that there is life after death and ...read more

For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin.” [1] “So that ...read more

    The Law Or Christ? Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 5, 2026
     | 41 views

    God desires His people to live uprightly before Him. We are expected to seek the ways of God, fleeing the lusts of the flesh, and resisting the temptations of the enemy. However, our salvation is not dependent upon our ability to do these things.

    The Law or Christ? Galatians 3: 23-29 Our text today continues the theme Paul has discussed throughout the letter. He continues to argue against the doctrine of the Judaizers. Granted, some who embrace this doctrine would argue that faith in Christ was essential for acceptance to God and ...read more

    Through this passage one can understand that Abraham was justified before he was circumcised and before the Law was given. Circumcision and legal obedience are not necessary conditions of justification

    ROMANS 4:9-15 THE FATHER OF THE FAITHFUL Paul has proven that Abraham was not justified nor forgiven on account of his good actions. But what was the nature of the Covenant made with Abraham? Was the promise made on the condition of faith, or on the condition of circumcision, which was the ...read more
