That's the reason we're being told it's SO IMPORTANT to get this CoVid19 thing right! With a mortality rate of 2-5% of those infected, they say it is 3 or 4 times more deadly than the seasonal flu. But I can't help but wonder, where's the concern for the "virus" with a 100% mortality rate that has infected the whole human race? Nichols and Wiseman wrote a song several years ago that country singer Tim McGraw used as the title cut for...

(Hebrews 12:29). Meditation Here we meditate on the holiness and the power of God; we dare to expose ourselves to holy fear. Holy fear has somewhat fallen out of fashion these days, and Christians are all the poorer for that. Certainly, we have the immense privilege of being able to approach God...

We are not a separate church in that sense at all and never will be. Don't look for us as one, you won't find us; and any new, separated Christian faith group or church that claims to be us, or claims to be newly created because of anything we've said here, is lying. Forming any new, separated Christian faith group is the very furthest thing from everything we stand for. We're trying to...

We want to encourage you, as soon as you're ready, to find a local Christian faith group in which to worship, and learn more about Jesus. You should let them declare for themselves what it is they believe in and teach, rather than go strictly by the labels or names of different Christian groups, or go by anything we might be able to tell you about each one of them. We have plainly stated on...

We're not set up for it here, and we don't intend to be. We believe that's best left for the various Christian faith groups to explain to you. We're just trying to help you get started here believing that God is real in Christ, and that faith in what Jesus did on the cross for us all is the one way out of sin. If you're trying to believe in Jesus for the first time, we hope you learn here that Jesus is the way to escape...
