Gutless Gracers’ Easy-believism

March 20, 2012

24

Before and shortly after God saved me in March 2009, most of the websites I followed were primarily concerned with biblical prophecy. Naturally, most of these sites are dispensational and unfortunately have an unbiblical view on the doctrine of salvation (known as soteriology). Of course, these sites have a very unfavorable view (at best) of […]

I got a chance to listen to Jesse Johnson’s message from the 2012 Shepherd’s Conference titled The Way(s) of the Master this morning, and I must say it was challenging and gave me a lot to chew on.

John Samson answers those questions with a pastoral heart, yet with biblical fidelity. –Dr. James White, Alpha & Omega Ministries, on John Samson’s new book, Twelve What Abouts There is no greater joy than […]

God’s Wrath Is Coming – Repent and Believe!

In the following video, Pastor Jorge Mendoza warns, Many people hear this and don’t respond. Maybe you’ve heard it all your life and haven’t responded. And you think you’re being neutral….”I’m not saying no” but by not saying “yes”, by not turning, you’re saying “no!” You’re actively deciding against Him. In fact, you’re worse than […]
