     | 2,352 views

    Scripture plainly states that salvation is of the LORD (Psalm 3:8; Isaiah 12:2; Hebrews 5:9) and that we have absolutely no power in and of ourselves to say or do otherwise. This teaching is not popular nor welcome today, but must be proclaimed regardless of what we think, say, or do.

    What I am about to say will not be welcome in many of the pulpits of America today and certainly will not be offered as the solution to the ills, sins, and woes facing our nation and the world today. All of the talk we have heard from "experts", "scholars", ...read more
