Claiming To Be Wise, They Became Foolish

In late November, Cambridge researcher Joshua Heath delivered a disgusting "sermon" at Trinity College, which left many worshipers in shock. I do not have access to his full script. But according to Daily Mail and The Economic Times, Heath suggested that Christ had had a trans body. One of the pieces of the evidence he … Continue reading Claiming To Be Wise, They Became Foolish

The One True Messiah: Jesus

This, however, is a perfect teachable moment for myself: Ask this "What if" question: What … Continue reading The Certificate of Debt Canceled

Welcome | ようこそ

The gospel (εὐαγγέλιον) is the good news for us fallen humanity (both Jews and non-Jews) that Jesus Christ, the Righteous One, died in our place for our sins and was raised again, conquering the power of sin and death, so that whoever believes in him will be freely given forgiveness of sins and a right standing with God for them to have eternal life and everlasting joy. Therefore, we are justified (made right with God) by grace alone through faith alone in the finished work of Christ alone.
