    based on 74 ratings
     | 43,533 views

    There’s an old saying "God hates the sin, but loves the sinner." But the Bible actually tells me God hates sinners. How can that be?

    God's plan of Redemption for man seems like foolishness to the lost man but makes sense to the believer.

    Intro: In our text there is a statement that should make us stop in our tracks. For the novice in Scripture or a skeptic, that statement could be misunderstood. In context it is clear. The Bible is not saying God is foolish, but that the most simple thought of God is greater than the greatest ...read more

    How Wise People Build Wealth Series

    Wealth is not just the accumulation of money. That would be the wrong target. Wealth is not solely money. In fact, this is not a message of how to achieve your financial dreams. This is a message about how to live right.

    Raised Poor A lot of our perception about wealth and riches comes from the way we were raised. If you were raised in poor conditions, you have a very different view of wealth and what it means than someone who was affluent. Building wealth was always a mystery to me! I grew up in the poorer part ...read more

    Disgrace Of A Hanging

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Aug 13, 2022
     | 1,606 views

    There is no other disgraceful form of death than to be sentenced to death by hanging on a pole, by a tree or any other device to suspend a person between heaven and earth. Our Lord died in that manner. Jesus knew the type of shameful form of death he must endure; yet he went to the hanging anyway.

    When we find ourselves in a position where we disagree with other Christians, it’s good to remember that God has given us room to disagree but not condemn and help for how to handle our differing opinions.
