We Believe In The Cross Series

“But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it—22 the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 ...read more

The Standard Of Justification

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 1, 2021

I’ve entitled our message this evening “The Standard of Justification.” So, what is the standard by which we are justified before God and made free to enter heaven when we die? There are actually two standards that we’ll discover: One is our standard of righteousness (or right living), which is ...read more

Contributed by David Western on Nov 19, 2025

Just as a general once showed me a car I thought was spotless still carried an odor, Leviticus 14 reminds us that God sees what we cannot—and through cedar, hyssop, and scarlet, He reveals the only cleansing that reaches the heart.

Covenant Before Culture

Marriage is God’s covenant design from creation, not a cultural contract, and only the new heart given by Christ can overcome hardness, restore faithfulness, and display His love to the world.
