FALSE TEACHERS HATE TO BE EXPOSED »

“The preachers of false doctrine dislike nothing more than the premature detection of their doings.

You are those who have stayed with me in my trials. (Luke 22:28)   When life is done and role is called up yonder, what will be the words that every disciple will want to hear? Perhaps, the most famous words men want to hear are, “Well done good and faithful servant.”  Certainly these would […]

DOCTRINAL TRUTH BEARS THE IMAGE OF CHRIST »

NO CONDEMNATION FOR CHRISTIANS »

In those days, and in that time, saith the Lord, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve. (Jeremiah 50:20)   A glorious word indeed! What a perfect pardon is here […]
