First, we must operate on ourselves, seeking out the sin that hinders us and leaving it with the Lord; and then, and only then, are we in a fit state to help the other.

What Would Make Heaven Hell?

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 26, 2025

Heaven is joy only for hearts transformed by Jesus. Without holiness, God’s presence becomes torment. Christ alone gives us a heart fit for heaven.

If you asked the average person today what they believe about eternity, most would say something like, “Oh, sure, I ...read more

The One Thing
