Good Morning! I think today we are ready to make a summary about my friend’s question. Let’s look at that again. I want to believe she cried out to Jesus right before she died and is now in heaven. But I get this sinking feeling that that was not the case. The thought of her … Continue reading 2019-02-15 The Death of an Unbeliever – Part 16

Happy Valentine’s Day! Let’s look at how all this teaching affects the way we share the gospel. First, God is the one who makes the rules, not us.

Good Morning! Let’s finish up on Romans 8 today and wrap this up next week. This is a huge topic, as you can tell. Honestly, the more I dig into this, the deeper I want to go.
