… and were by nature children of wrath, even as others. Eph.3:3 Are you a believer? Are you what is called a saved person, a child of God? If so, how did that come about? Why did God save you? If your answer is, “because I believed in Jesus,” then you are over-qualified to be […]
If my wife asked me if I loved her, and I replied that I did in a sense, it would not be received well. I hear preachers speak of God loving all men in a sense, and sincerely offering mercy and forgiveness to all men – that is quite simply not true! The apostles never […]
Sovereign or Superior Grace? Many, I have found report to believe in Sovereign Grace. They speak of their love for a God who sovereignly elected a people, a Christ who sovereignly atoned for those particular people alone, and a Spirit who sovereignly and successfully regenerates the same chosen people.

The Gospel is not an offer from God. He does not offer His mercy and grace so that it is up to your acceptance or rejection of what is offered as to whether or not you will have it. He does not offer anyone the forgiveness of sins. He does not offer salvation, and then […]

Ignorant men like to boast of their free will. Free from what? Free from God? Truth is we are always servants subject to another. We are either the servants of sin, walking “according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in […]
WHAT ABOUT YOU? I can imagine the day of judgment. All are gathered before the throne of God. Those who are robed in the perfect robe of Christ’s righteousness are gathered to His right hand.
