Aug 25, 2019Straight To The HeartAs Christians, we must constantly be asking ourselves how we view people. Because of our love for Christ and obedience to Him, we no longer look at people in worldly, surface level categories, but we give everyone the respect they deserve as image bearers of God. And it is in this respect and love that we are compelled to preach the full gospel to all people.Takeaways:
- If you embrace this, it will transform the way you view and interact with all kinds of people
- Don’t let who they are stop you from giving them what they so desperately need

Jul 14, 2019Law and GospelIn 2 Corinthians 3, Paul makes a distinction between the Old Covenant and New Covenant, between the law and gospel. What is made clear is that the law cannot save anybody and was never intended to save anybody.

The law and the gospel are both necessary for our salvation.
