    Why Christ Is Insulted And Mohammed Is Honoured

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 25, 2014
     | 4,899 views

    A religion without a saviour that has suffered cannot endure insults to win those who mock. A religion that cannot bear insults must bear the impossible load of upholding the honour of one who did not give his life for others.

    “Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves. Beware of men, for they will deliver you over to courts and flog you in their synagogues, and you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them ...read more

    Satan’s Limitations: Satan Is Not Omnipotent Series

    Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Sep 12, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,467 views

    Job 1-2 reveals Satan’s limitations. Satan is not God’s equal opposite. Unlike God, Satan isn’t omnipresent (everywhere), omnipotent (all-powerful) or omniscient (all-knowing). This session’s focus: Satan is not omnipotent; he can only do what God allows. So why does God allow suffering?

    ************* Satan Is Not OMNIPOTENT (All-Powerful) The Lord asked Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job; there is none like him in the earth. He is a perfect and upright man, who fears God and avoids evil?” Satan asked, “Haven't you made a hedge on every side about him and his house ...read more
