    Jesus has finished everything for us. He sacrificed Himself so that we don't need to face punishment and we may have eternal life. When we accept Him, He would also love to transform our lives, to make our lives meaningful.

    Knowledge of God’s Word and doctrine is an important part of Christian growth and maturity; it is not enough, but it is foundational. We vary, one from another, in our relationship to it.

    Missing Pieces (Acts 18:24-28; 19:1-10) 1. A not-so- bright gal calls her boyfriend and says, “Please come over here and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle, and I can’t figure out how to get it started.” He asks, “What is it supposed to be when it’s finished?” The girl says, “According to the ...read more
