Israel Identified Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 28, 2019

The Jews make a case for failure on God’s part to fulfill His promises. This is the first step toward Paul's argument concerning the righteousness of God in calling the Gentiles into the blessing of salvation.

(31) Israel Identified Romans 9:6-13 6 But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect.

Are You A Believer Or A Receiver?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Sep 29, 2019

There is a growing belief within the church that a person who is a believer in Jesus is considered a Christian and has therefore been given eternal life after they say the "sinners prayer." This is an in-depth multipart message

It is true that Judas was one of the multiple disciples Jesus ...read more
