Love The Sinner God’s Way – Revisited

Mr. Jon Ardis     01-21-2023    (from 12- 21-2013)

So few today really know what sin is, and each of us are sinners. Being proud in heart is an abomination to God and this is a way of life for some, while others strive to be more carnal and are proud of their sins. We need to use Godly wisdom, and the other fruits of the spirit, to help others when appropriate, and to do good especially to those of the faith.

Fruit Of Joy – Revisited

Mr. Wallace Lawton   08-01-2020    (from 11-09-2013)

How can trials be a joy? Trials affect development of character leading to spiritual maturity. The true church will be protected and fed until spiritual maturity is reached. At this place and time we must go to God for wisdom of what to do in trials. This is “active” faith, and gaining wisdom is the “principle thing”!
