Salvation, part 2

Catching up on what we learned last week Last week we began looking at the vital subject of salvation. We shared the story of a king and his subjects, and we left off at the point where the king declared you a criminal.

Key Bible subjects: Salvation, part 1

The neglected leg of the salvation stool

The convicting ministry of the Spirit We don’t want to talk about it. I don’t like to talk about it. More to the point, I don’t like to even think about it. But we have to talk about it. “It” is judgment. The Lake of Fire. The wrath of God. In John 16:8-11, Jesus tells us...

No longer a slave but a son

How to make your daily life meaningful  We have been listening to what the Lord has to say to us in Colossians 3.  This chapter of the Bible teaches us the basic three-step of daily Christianity.
