    I wish to submit to you that this teaching is doctrinal nonsense, and that there is no such thing as “God’s permissive will”.

    When bad things happen – God is not allowing it The Myth: There is a popular Church teaching that God has two wills, which are: 1. A perfect will – meaning what God actually wants; 2. A permissive will – meaning what God allows even if its not His perfect will; I wish to ...read more

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Feb 8, 2016
     | 6,316 views

    Even though nearly 2,000 years have gone by, Jesus wants his disciples of all time to understand how this era of human history ends. And that includes you. Let’s answer three basic questions that arise from a reading of this text.

    Never Surrender Your Authenticity

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Apr 6, 2020
     | 2,117 views

    Jesus says let "yes" be yes and "no" be no. Righteousness must exceed the Pharisees. They surrendered their authenticity to appear more religious. This sermon is an encouragement to live in the opposite manner.
