I readily admit that this study of ours is basically doctrinal – it is theological. It is an attempt at a literal exposition of the Word of God. There are a lot of churches and a lot of pastors, whose preaching begins with a problem, or with an everyday...

We begin today to look at one of the greatest chapters in the Word of God. This is not necessarily the most important chapter, the most profound chapter, or the most Heavenly. It may not even be the most important in the Book of Romans. Chapter 5 may exceed chapter 8...

Do we have anyone here who is unfamiliar with the subject of debt? You may THINK that you know what the debt is in this chapter, but debt in the 21st Century is different from debt in the 1st Century. The Lord Jesus lived in a kinder and gentler society than in the...

Let’s pretend that you are young and deeply in love. You have found the person with whom you’d like to spend the rest of your life. You two seem perfectly matched and compatible in every possible way. You have the same kind of faith and the same Saviour...
