When Heaven Opens

Contributed by Darrell Jones on Mar 1, 2003

I recently saw a sign for a store advertising a grand opening. The store manager boasted of great give-a-ways and all sort of wonderful prizes. However, none of these things compare to what we gain when Heaven opens.

Lent Is Not In The Bible

Contributed by Jonathan Campbell on Mar 31, 2009

Four reasons why the church of Jesus Christ should have nothing to do with Lent.

1. LENT PROMOTES A SALVATION OF WORKS Lent is ultimately a list of dos and don’ts. The focus is on the individual not Christ.
