Dealing With Sin

Contributed by Robert Sickler on Mar 15, 2017

Whether ignorant or evil, they are working for Satan who spread the lie that all ours sins, past-present-future, have already been forgiven; thus, we do not have to worry about sinning.

Dealing With Sin Illustration It is remarkable what people will do in response to hearing what they want to hear, or in response to getting their own way. For example: there is a TV show called ‘Big Bang Theory’ and in this show there is a wimpy nerd, named Leonard, who will say and do ...read more

Who Was Cain's Wife?

Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 6, 2015

Some have adopted the viewpoint that Cain's wife belonged to a separate group of people with little or no connection with Adam and Eve. However, the Gospel message requires that all have descended from Adam and Eve..

Joseph's Monologue - A Christmas Play Series

Contributed by Eduardo Quintana on Oct 29, 2021

This is a powerful Christmas monologue. Christmas from the eyes of Joseph. A proper production can be very powerful.

With that in mind, I want to take some creative liberties and put some words into Joseph's mouth. It's important to let you all know that this piece is just a creative ...read more

We Are Made Righteous By Faith (Second Sunday Of Lent, March 5, 2023)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 3, 2023

How would you like to take a test that had a different rule for success? Instead of so many points for an “A”, so many for a “B” and so on, the success of the test would be based on an “all or nothing rule”. So you would have to get a 100% to pass on every test every single day.
