Is there Life after Death?
Is there an afterlife? What happens when we die? At death, the souls of Christian believers are made perfect by the power of God and immediately pass into heaven while their bodies rest in the grave awaiting the resurrection on the earth’s last day. When Christians die their soul immediately enters into the presence ofContinue reading “Is there Life after Death?”

By design the church is a “mixed body” of both authenticContinue reading “The Church is full of patients not hypocrites”
A “Hypocrite” or A “Work in Progress?”
A 2008 U.S. survey of unchurched adults found that 72% of them believed that the church ‘is full of hypocrites.’ I blogged yesterday, (see The Church is full of Hypocrites) that the design of the church is a “mixed body” consisting of both the righteous and the unrighteous like wheat and tares growing and coexistingContinue reading “A “Hypocrite” or A “Work in Progress?””
Did God Create Evil?
This past week the Lord brought me to a place where I had to answer some questions about God’s relationship to evil: Where did evil come from? Did God create it?
