What’s the difference between “Denomination” and “Non-Denominational”? What are you?
There are many false beliefs where is the true church ? Thank you for the GREAT question! It has become somewhat "trendy" for churches to claim that they are "non-denominational." This is part of the Community Church trend that started several years ago. However, most of those so-called Community Churches are simply denominations that have dropped the denominational name. They are still teaching and practicing, pretty much, the same things they did before they dropped the denominational … [Read more...]

Is The Bible For Everyone?
Jesus said, in what we call the great invitation, “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light” (Matt. 11:28-30). While there are many lessons we can draw from that great text, the one most relevant to the question, “Is the Bible for everyone?,” is that Jesus said “all” could come to Him, “all” could … [Read more...]

What Was In “This Cup”?
Sean B. asks, When Jesus prayed in the garden of Gethsemane, “…let this cup pass from me…,” was He praying for more than the physical suffering He would endure to include the spiritual implications of the Cross? Jesus prayer in the garden of Gethsemane is recorded in three of the four Gospel accounts (Matthew 26:36-46; Mark 14:32-42; Luke 22:39-46). Before He went about a stone’s throw from Peter, James and John (Luke 22:41), He said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death” … [Read more...]

Do People Have A Sinful Nature (part 2)
Last week we began answering the question, “Do people have a sinful nature?” In that article we saw that the foundation for the mistaken idea of “sinful nature,” the doctrine of total depravity, is not something that is taught in the Bible. Since the foundation of “sinful nature” is wrong, so is the teaching of “sinful nature” itself. This week we want to go on and show how the idea of man’s “sinful nature” actually contradicts what the Bible does say. The Bible says that we are created in … [Read more...]

Do People Have A “Sinful Nature”? (part 1)
Andrew P. asks, “You said that we don't have a sinful nature. Could you explain that to me in more depth? To understand the idea of “sinful nature” it is first important to know from where that idea comes. It is most closely associated with the doctrine of Total Depravity, which teaches that people are born with inherited sin all the way from Adam. It says that when Adam sinned, his nature became corrupted and that corrupted nature got passed on to all Adam’s offspring. However, that is not … [Read more...]

John chapter 20 v 17, did Jesus ascended to heaven to his father?
when he told mary touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my father . after saying that did he ascend to heaven. John chapter twenty records the resurrection and early appearances of the risen Lord. It was early on a Sunday morning (John 20:1), “while it was still dark,” that Mary Magdalene discovered the stone sealing Jesus’ tomb had been rolled away. Thinking that grave robbers (a common crime at that time), or possibly the enemies of Christ, had taken his body; she ran to tell the … [Read more...]
