In all relationships, as in marriage, including our marriage to Christ, forgiveness may be granted. Yet, without true repentance, there can be no reconciliation.

The Remnant Are Never AWOL
All you who profess to be God’s remnant: What are you doing? Why leave the wall? Where, when, how else can you sound the warning? Are you preaching and teaching the gospel in your words and deeds?

More Than Just a Day
Keeping the Sabbath holy, according to God’s commandment, requires a spiritual heart transplant. That means being born again. Being born again must involve thorough repentance and conversion. That means knowing that you did wrong, making the necessary efforts to rectify the wrong, and living so that you do not repeat the wrong. Yes. That typicallyContinue reading “More Than Just a Day”
