What Is Truth? Series

Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 18, 2012

We may either adopt the cynicism of this dying world, dismissing truth when it stands before us, or we may embrace the Son of God who is truth.

“Pilate said to Jesus, ‘What is truth?’” [1] Cynicism best describes the governor’s demeanor when the True Light stood before him. Arraigned before Pilate’s judgement seat was Jesus of Nazareth who testified of Himself, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life” [JOHN 14:6]. Someone has ...read more

Guilty But Not As Charged Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021

This passage makes it clear that man does not need to be totally depraved to be totally out of God's will, and that he who stands must beware less he fall.

A close study of the account of the fall of man has done more to open my eyes to the danger of tradition than any other study I have done. Those who profess to take it literally have done much in making it mythological by using it to teach lessons that have no basis in the text itself. Those who ...read more

The Rewards Of Repentance

Contributed by Mark Opperman on Sep 29, 2015

The sinner must repent before they receive salvation. Those who are saved must practice repentance if they are to enjoy unbroken fellowship with God. Repentance is both negative and positive – turning away from sin – turning to God.
