Obeying God's Commands Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Sep 21, 2011

For all those who reject God, they must know that the day will come when they will have to stand before God and face His holiness and justice. They will have to face His judgment. So we must know God. But how can we tell if we really know God?

How do we know if we really know God? We live in a day when many people are not even interested in knowing God. They want to live like they want. To know God is the furthest thing from their minds.

Contributed by James May on Apr 19, 2016

In a world gone mad with sin and depravity, what should the true church of Jesus Christ be doing? We should not fear what man may do, we should bend the truth of God's Word, and we should not bow before the "gods" of political correctness.
