Trust In God, Not Man
Trust is a serious issue to the Lord. He invites us to “Trust in the Lord” with all our hearts (Proverbs 3:5). I find Isaiah 2:22 to be a wonderful reminder to me to always place my trust in the Lord rather than man. It is easy to look to others for strength and help....
Victory! How Christ Triumphs Over Satan

An Accommodating Gospel: Why Jesus Will Not Accept Your Sin
The story of the rich young ruler has a striking parallel to culture today. What wealth and possessions were to him, sexuality has become to us. When he was confronted by the Gospel, he was unable and unwilling to accept what Jesus said. The Bible says, “He walked...
