Blessings of Faith
(Galatians 3:4-9) We see today so many Christians and so many churches who are bound up under the confines of the law. They believe that they MUST keep the law and worship under the law to be saved. This is in spite of the fact that most of them also give praise to God and…

Gospel Truth Is Not From Men
(Galatians 1:10-17) One of the things all Christians need to do is to examine themselves and try to understand who it is they are listening to and learning from because the gospel truth is not from men, but from God. There is only one truth of the New Covenant, just as there is only one…

We Walk By Faith Not By Sight
(2 Corinthians 5:6-7) There is a blindness on the people of this world that causes them not to see the truth of God.

Problems With Trinity
(1 Corinthians 12:4-6) These verses teach us many things and one of the most important is about the nature of the person of God.
