"He Showed Himself Alive …” 2 Of 2

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 6, 2022

| 2,050 views

As I stated earlier, when a preacher preaches on the resurrection of Christ he is preaching on the most important topic of the Bible.

That statement was the truth when I said it and it is the truth now! I vehemently want to state again, it is not one of the most important, but THE MOST IMPORTANT topic of the Bible. As we focus in on this most important topic again today, with all the Easter traditions we have in this country ...read more

Salvation - In Three Tenses

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 16, 2024

based on 1 rating

| 1,084 views

Salvation is to be experienced by us in three tenses- past, present and future. We have been saved from the penalty of sin. Now we must be saved from the power of sin. Then finally, we will be saved from the very presence of sin.

It is a good saying that half-truth is even more dangerous than a lie. A lie we can detect at some point of time in the future. But if we believe a half truth, there is a possibility that we would never come to the full truth. Gospel is the gospel of God. It doesn’t need any human touch on it. It ...read more
