The Stone Is Rolled Away

Contributed by John Lowe on Dec 6, 2012

"WHY WAS THE STONED ROLLED AWAY?" AND "FOR WHOM WAS THE STONED ROLLED AWAY FOR?" Was it rolled away for Jesus? No, he was already gone. And besides, the risen Son of God doesn’t need anyone to do anything for Him. So who was the stone rolled away for?

The Prophet And The Prostitute Series

Contributed by Matt Black on Oct 18, 2019

Why would God ask a prophet to marry a prostitute? What a shocking love story that ultimately points to the greatest love story in God’s Son laying down his life on the cross for an unworthy and unfaithful bride. In the symbolism of Hosea, God is the Prophet and we are the prostitute. What grace!

Holiness - What Is It?

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 29, 2015

Can we even live holy lives? Or are we condemned to live in the shackles of sin until we are glorified at death? Are we a new creation or does the Father just see the blood of His Son covering our sins as we commit them once we're saved?

Romans 6:22-23 “Now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Three categories of ...read more
