Trust Me

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Sep 8, 2015

TRUST ME In my last series, I focused on the places where Jesus said, “I tell you the truth”. But in order to accept what Jesus said we need to trust that he knows what the truth is. Jesus said to Pilate, “Everyone on the side of truth listens to me”, to where Pilate ...read more

Concentration Commanded Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 6, 2021

This First Commandment is a law of love, for God knows we cannot be happy in split-level living with dual or multiple gods demanding our devotion. The law is God's preventative love, whereas the cross is God's redeeming love.

Tale Of Two Fathers (Father’s Day)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 18, 2022

Abraham and Lot were both saved men, but Lot was like many of the fathers today. The way Lot lived his life, it is difficult to believe he was saved.

Abram had been accompanied by Lot in all his wanderings. But a separation must take place between them. Abram and his seed were to be kept distinct from all other races, as from him the promised Messiah was to spring. This also was brought about by what seemed a series of natural circumstances, ...read more
