True Repentance

Contributed by Denise Raterta on Oct 14, 2009

Backsliding itself is of course horrendous. But it gets doubly shameful and we’ll end up dishonoring God even more when we repent without fully knowing exactly how we have offended God.

Seeing and hearing the reactions of different people in the midst of the recent calamities in the world, I find myself grieving because most of us, even the supposedly veteran believers, do not fully understand and recognize God’s clear message behind the events. We just hear and do what we like to ...read more

The True Light Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021

REVIEW Paul wrote this letter from a Roman prison along with letters to the Jesus Followers at Ephesus and Colossae known as the “Prison Epistles (letters).

True Freedom

Contributed by Morris Guiendon on Jul 6, 2022

I am convinced that there are people that are walking around thinking that they are free when they are not. It has been said that the hardest prison to escape from is in your mind.

Introduction We were blessed to be born in a free nation. A place that does not restrict its citizens to believe in a certain way, or to live under oppressive rules. The truth is, our freedoms are not what they once were here in America. Even though freedoms are being eroded in our nation, it is ...read more

We are often tempted to sin as well as tested in our faith. This part of the prayer is a reminder for the source of our power to overcome such temptations.

True Success

Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on May 27, 2024

Many Christians understand success unbiblically. They have been deceived into chasing success according to the world's standards. They should know that the measure of success according to God is very different from the world's.

Today, I will discuss success. I have been reluctant to discuss this topic because I do not want to be associated with the teaching of "Theology of Success" or "Prosperity Gospel," which is not based on the complete teachings of the Bible. But two weeks ago, I felt the Holy ...read more

The True Vine Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 16, 2021

Jesus the True Vine is the Only source of spiritual life. For us to know if we are a true disciple or a fake disciple we need recognise the difference between the Father bringing us through a difficult pruning process, or the Father cutting us off.

Message John 15:1 I Am The True Vine There are seven “I am” passages of Jesus … the last of which is found in John 15:1-6 (read) I suspect there are plenty of us who remember the “I am the vine; you are the branches” part.
