What Does The Bible Say About Sex Before Marriage?

Contributed by Robert Irvine on Aug 2, 2024

Sex outside of marriage is so commonplace (inside and outside the church), and many people do not even consider the idea of getting married, that it appears that no-one actually knows what God wants for us.

“Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a ...read more

Reclaiming The Blueprint Series

Contributed by Apostle Dr. Ruben L. Broadnax Jr. on Oct 24, 2024

Many believers feel that something vital is missing from today's church, yearning for the vibrancy seen in the early church of Acts. God is calling us back to that original blueprint, to be a church devoted to Him, to each other, and to the mission of spreading His hope and redemption.

There is a growing sense among believers today that something essential is missing. We attend church services, participate in programs, and go through the motions of faith, yet we long for the vibrancy, the power, and the authentic community described in the book of Acts. It’s like we have ...read more

In Pursuit Of Portion

Contributed by Joe Dan Vendelin on Mar 23, 2024

Our life's pursuits ultimately define us. King David was a man after God's own heart. King Solomon ultimately pursued other things. Being in pursuit of God as your portion will lead you into the fullness of His goodness today as well as for an eternity.

It’s used 14 times. In most of these instances, it refers to the portion of an ...read more
