Though their first child, a daughter, came after just a few years of trying, the second child, another daughter, […]
By Laurence M. Vance And Jesus said unto them, “I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst” (John 6:35). Calvinism Calvinism is the teaching that man is so dead in sin that God has to irresistibly call him and regenerate […]
By Mike Lii Back in the early 1990s, the subject of Lordship Salvation had arisen in the college fellowship that I was attending.

From The Grace New Testament Commentary (Revised Edition) By Zane Hodges Our Union with Christ in His Death and Resurrection (6:1-11) 6:1-2. Paul dismisses a false conclusion.

Mark 1:14). However, the only such event reported in the Synoptics occurs at the end of Jesus’ ministry […]
