The Gospel of Jesus is his death, burial, resurrection. Unfortunately many are in rebellion, having rejected the application of the gospel. Jesus said to Nicodemus in John 3:5 "...Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom...

One of the tragedies of Christendom that so many have isolated the Ephesian passage from the larger body of redemptive information. They emphatically declare that this text excludes water baptism as one of the constituents of the plan of salvation. Does that logic also eliminate the requirement...

Ephesians 2:8-9 proclaims, “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” This means salvation is a free gift from God. The death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ made this free gift of salvation...

Jesus said, “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned” (Mark 16:16).

Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. The key to "saved by grace" is obedience. God gave Noah specific instructions on how to build the ark. God gave Moses specific instructions on...

With the media spreading a pandemic "fear" today, many have already surrendered to that spirit... 2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Yes we must take precautions, but not "fearful"... Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and...

Jesus himself addressed this very issue... Luke 20:41 And he said unto them, How say they that Christ is David's son? [42] And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, [43] Till I make thine enemies thy footstool. [44] David...

Perhaps we are seeing the precursor of the talking beast image, in that of the Virgin Mary statues speaking over seas. Note: I'm not a Catholic hater, but am only making observation of "Talking Image".
