Good Friday is Coming
As Good Friday approaches, please consider examining the claims Jesus made about Himself. Friends, if His resurrection didn’t happen, Christianity isn’t a viable worldview…it would be futile and misleading. Christianity’s existence hinges entirely on Jesus’s resurrection (1 Corinthians 15). “For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died … Continue reading Good Friday is Coming

Philippians 2: What Does “Emptied Himself” Refer To?
Per GotQuestions: “Christ’s ‘emptying’ of Himself was the laying aside of the privileges of divinity, not divinity itself. In heaven, the Son of God possessed infinite honor and glory and adoration.

When He came to earth, He veiled His … Continue reading Philippians 2: What Does “Emptied Himself” Refer To?

Prior to “being made alive together with Christ” (Eph 2:5), we were spiritually dead (separated from God)…disobedient to God, carrying out the desires of our fallenness. … Continue reading The “One Another” of Philippians Two
