4.20.25 – "The Power of Prayer"
Believing in God means that my prayers matter! We should believe God will answer when we ask Him and will act in ways He would not have acted if we had not prayed. God can do great things when the faithful pray.

11.2.25 – "Not Biblical"
There are numerous things in popular religion among Christians that have no foundation in the Scriptures. True Christianity is rooted in the written word delivered once for all by the apostles and prophets of the first century.
11.9.25 – "The Restoration Plea"
We strive to speak where the Bible speaks and be silent where the Bible is silent. We reject many beliefs and practices because they cannot be found in the New Testament. Pure Christianity holds fast to the words of Christ.

Just like the Pharisees of old who believed in human traditions, so many Christians hold fast to beliefs and practices that do not come from God but from councils and creeds that fail to remain in the teaching of Scripture.

True Christianity remembers what God has done for us in Christ and shows gratitude. We do not desire a thankless faith that seeks more to please ourselves than to remember the manifold blessings of Jesus Christ.

12.21.25 – "Jesus and His Promises"
If I could stand on the highest hill and speak with the loudest voice, I would say, “God keeps His promises!” I am thankful we have a God who takes His words seriously. This means we too need to take His words seriously.
12.28.25 – "The God of the Bible"
People have many views of God, but often those views of God are manufactured rather than the revealed God of the Bible. We need to know the word of God in order to the true God who created us and saves us from sin.
