The true gospel of Christ is being buried beneath more deception and garbage every day. The new age doctrines say that salvation is for everyone, that it's not personal; we're all saved and headed for Heaven and no one is guilty of sin because Jesus' death on the cross showed us that love rules—and that we're saved if we … Continue reading Salvation IS Personal!

Truth or Comfort Zone
Much of “Christianity” today has digressed from a commitment to follow Christ to an “everything goes” attitude that gives false spiritual security.

It’s no wonder that this deception … Continue reading Truth or Comfort Zone

The Object of the Cross
As Christians, we all know that Jesus is the Christ who came to take away the sins of the world. But did you know that salvation is not just a general observation— that it’s really personal?

Can We Earn God’s Forgiveness?
Many religions will have us believe that we can “earn” God’s forgiveness through works - give financial aid, support those who come to us for help, and pray for those in need. And these good deeds for this purpose should stay with that religion because it is NOT a prerequisite from the Lord for forgiveness, … Continue reading Can We Earn God’s Forgiveness?
Love Your Enemies
