When it comes to my sin and your sin, God is in a bit of a quandary. We are without a doubt sinners, and our sin rightly deserves the wrath of God in hell forever. And because God is holy and just judge, that sin cannot go unpunished. If God just overlooked our sins, He…

When it comes to ethics, which is the topic of what is right and wrong, people sometimes argue that the ends justify the means. Have you heard people say that? In other words, it doesn’t really matter how you accomplish something as long as you accomplish something good. From this viewpoint, the means are not…

Apostle Paul has a line at the beginning of Romans 3 that I absolutely love. By the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, he exclaims, “Let God be true and every man a liar.” That’s a very Paul way of saying, God can be trusted. What He says is true. What He has promised, He’ll make…

If you are a Christian, have you ever considered that how you live reflects on God? That’s absolutely true.

Do you know somebody who struggles to believe in the existence of God? Perhaps that somebody is you. People often say, I would believe in God if He would just give me a sign that He exists. But Romans 1 says that the signs of God’s existence are all around you. And what’s more, it…
