Being faithful to Jesus Christ is the most difficult thing we try to do today. Our Lord is dethroned more deliberately by Christian workers than by the world. We treat God as if He were a machine designed only to bless us, and we think of Jesus as just another one of the workers. The…More
The Right Kind of Help
“And I, if I am lifted up…will draw all peoples to Myself.” – John 12:32 (NKJV) Very few of us have any understanding of the reason why Jesus Christ died. If sympathy is all that human beings need, then the Cross of Christ is an absurdity there is absolutely no need for it. What the world…More
