The directive to “work out” salvation is to let the new birth in Christ manifest itself in one’s actions. Believers should serve God without complaining or griping as part of ...read more

    Did you know that a huge addiction is sweeping across our nation? People are addicted to their smart phones! They have to constantly be checking facebook, Twitter, their email, YouTube, Pinterest, or texting. Listen to these startling statistics: —The National Safety Council reports that cell ...read more
