Comments Off on An Atheist Responds to Everlasting Hell
PersonalFailure This morning I discovered through blogger stats that my article from yesterday, Hell Is Real, It’s Forever, and It’s No Party, was posted by a lady who calls herself PersonalFailure at her Forever in Hell blog.

Comments Off on Do Not Serve Needy without Gospel
In this postmodern world and subsequent postmodern church age, the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ has been greatly reduced to a missional or social gospel, casting the core and essential message of the true Gospel to the wayside.
