“We are to know” what is going on around us. A different way to think about Eschatology. Matthew 24.

In Him, there was life. A study in the gospel of John 1:4,5.

What’s the advantage of being a Jew? Romans 3:1-8.


We have made it to Romans chapter three, and immediately there is a sense that something is missing, as though we drop into the middle of a conversation. Based on this introduction if you were to say to me, I … Continue reading

Doctrines of Demons, false teachers, and other foolishness. Revelation 3:9
