Proverbs 14:20 Do they encourage me to do evil or to do what is right? Proverbs 1:10 Proverbs 27:17 Do they agree2022-05-16T21:43:01-05:00May 15th, 2022|

We cherish the First Amendment because it protects our freedom of speech, but do not forget that there is a higher law than that of this land -the Bible. God has the right to dictate what we say, how we say it, and when we say it. We live in an age when most people believed that they are not only entitled to have an opinion but that their opinion must always be shared. There are times that we should bite our tongue. The world would be a better place if everyone followed God's guidelines for speech. Let's learn a little bit2022-04-03T19:23:09-05:00April 3rd, 2022|

Bible Text: Ephesians 6:10-17 | Dave Olson
Today’s piece of the armor is the helmet of salvation. Why would saved people be told to put on the helmet of salvation? God is not implying that we have to get saved over and over again. So what does it mean to put on the helmet? Salvation provides much for a Christian, but many believers live without those benefits. It’s as if they don’t put on their helmet. Let's consider what the helmet of salvation offers us.
