Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Oct 12, 2020

Every genuine believe is a steward of the christian faith. When men of dubious character rise to teach false doctrines, you must speak the truth and defend the faith.

TEXT: Jude 1:3 - 4 (NLT) "Dear friends, I had been eagerly planning to write to you about the salvation we all share.

Childlike Faith

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Aug 16, 2020

Everyone keeps saying and we keep hearing over and over the phrase, “this is the new normal!” There is an old saying, “if it walks, talks and acts like a duck...it’s a duck!” What we are witnessing is not the new normal, what we are witnessing is the devil getting all of his ducks in a row!

As we look around the world in the day and age in which we live, we find ourselves questioning everything we’re told. The truth is we have never had more access to information, but have never been more weary of the information we are being told as truth. The go to response for knowledge and truth ...read more

The Importance Of Faith Series

Contributed by Greg Powell on Aug 19, 2020

Paul anticipates the Judaizers next objection since they were huge fans of the law of Moses. In general, they recognized the importance of the Abrahamic covenant, but they gave priority to the Mosaic covenant. This led them to emphasize law over faith.

INTRO: We have seen the interrogation of faith and the illustration of faith and today we’ll see the importance of faith. Next week is the identity of faith. What Paul has been hammering home in Galatians is that we are saved by faith and not by works. This is the distinguishing hallmark of ...read more
