Converted, Healed, Filled and Raised Acts Chapter 9 If we chose four words to describe the life of a believer–that is, what the Lord Jesus does for the believer from before the first hour we believe until we come into final glory–these four words might sum it up: converted, healed, filled, and raised. In the […]
SURE INDICATIONS OF SALVATION Acts 9: 5, 6 Before the Lord saved Saul he was a pride-filled, ambitious, sinner lost in religion who would heed no one’s voice but his own. After Christ appeared to Saul on the road to Damascus and knocked him off his high horse the Lord called him by name and […]
‘Holier than thou’ or ‘Chief of sinners’? The Lord judges the self-righteousness in Is. 65 for believing themselves to be “Holier than thou”. In contrast, the Apostle Paul confesses himself to be the “chief of sinners”. The truth is that all men believe themselves to be one or the other. Which one we believe ourselves […]
Christ is the way Isaiah 35: 8: And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; Earthly Zion was where the city of Jerusalem was. It was the place where the one altar and the one mercy-seat were. That […]
Power To Prepare Acts 8: 26-31 In power, the Lord of glory prepares lost sinners to receive the messenger and the message of salvation.

The Problem Of Evil Psalm 76:10 The question is often raised, “How did sin and evil arise in God’s creation?” If God is absolutely sovereign, absolutely holy, and absolutely good, if he created all things good, how is it that pride was found in Lucifer’s heart?
