Do You Need to Forgive Someone?
By Justin Edwards Is there someone in your life you need to forgive? Are you holding a grudge against someone and need to ask forgiveness? Is there someone with a grudge against you? Forgiveness is the epitome of the Christian walk – whether we need it or need to offer it. We grieve the Spirit […]
My Desire

Comments Off on My Desire
By Justin Edwards What is our purpose? What are we here for?

Comments Off on Do Not Let Sin Reign in Your Mortal Body – Part 2
By Justin Edwards In Part 1 of his series on Romans 6:11-14, John Piper explained the seditious power of sin able to take our God-given desires captive and turns our bodies into instruments of unrighteousness.

May 18, 2010
By Justin Edwards There is not one living person who does not have a yoke. One either has the yoke of Christ, or a burdensome yoke of the world. Jesus says in Matthew 11:28-30: 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My […]

Comments Off on Can Christians become too heavenly-minded?

May 5, 2010
The Judgment Seat of Christ – Leonard Ravenhill Oh God, stamp eternity on my eyeballs! But you know if God should stamp eternity or even judgment on our eyeballs or if you’d like on the fleshy table of our hearts. I am quite convinced we’d be a very very different tribe of people, God’s people, […]

Paul Washer continues in the book of 1 John in Part 4 of this 5-part series on assurance of salvation.

In Part 3 of Paul Washer’s series on Biblical assurance of salvation, he again opens with 2 Corinthians 13:5: Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves.
