When We Sin

Steve Durkac Posted on June 26, 2017 by Steve DurkacFebruary 4, 2024

We had a conversation Sunday during our study of James about what to do when we have sinned, and I want to share those Bible promises that I referenced again here. First, I mentioned a verse that I couldn’t locate right away, but the verse is Jeremiah 17:9  and it says, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: … Continue reading →

Steve Durkac Posted on June 16, 2017 by Steve DurkacFebruary 4, 2024

The angry expressions of violence are easily acted upon when the Holy Spirit … Continue reading →

Tree of Life?

Q: So when we get into heaven, will we have to literally eat of the tree of life to keep living forever, or is the tree of life a metaphorical object meaning we already have eternal life? A: In Genesis 2:9 and Genesis 3:22 we see that the tree of life seems to offer Adam and Eve a perpetual sustenance … Continue reading →

Who is the Anti-Christ?

Steve Durkac Posted on June 2, 2017 by Steve DurkacFebruary 4, 2024

Last Sunday at CrossHope Chapel we spent a little more time on 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 and the subject of “the man of lawlessness” and who this man could be. I shared a thought I had, but I couldn’t recall if it was from the book of Daniel or a commentator, but the thought I shared was that there is a … Continue reading →
