1 Cor 6:20 says that people Jesus saves are bought with a price. The price is the blood of Jesus shed on Calvary. No matter what we were before we were saved, 1 Cor 6:9-10, Jesus washes us in his blood and cleanses us from our sins. He sanctifies us to be clean for his […]
That They Might See, Ecc 3:16-21

A Sinner’s Mind, Eph 4:17-19
I have been thinking lately, “How is it that whole societies degenerate into sexual perversion and things as horrible as baby killing?” You read about these things over and over in the Bible. 2 Ki 16:3 Ahaz made his son to pass through the fire, 2 Chr 28:3. According to 2 Ki 23:10, this was […]
