There are several hundred denominations in the world today, all of whom claim to be following the same Lord and living by the same Bible. The problem is they all wear different names, teach different doctrines, and practice different works. People in the world are turned off by this and tend to reject God and […]
No one denies that we are saved by grace. The Bible makes this abundantly clear. Ephesians 2:8-9 (ESV) 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. It is […]
This is one of the saddest truths in the Bible. Jesus spoke this truth in His Sermon on the Mount. Matthew 7:13-14 (ESV) 13 “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate […]

In Matthew 16:18 Jesus promised to build His church. Matthew 16:18 (ESV) 18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
