John Mark Allen

Would you willingly die & allow your friends & family to die for a made up story? Many of the first Jesus followers did give up their life because they know it was more than a story!

Sheol, Hades, Tartarus & Gehenna can all be translated Hell in the Bible. Sheol is the place of the dead consisting of 2 parts, Paradise and what we would consider Hell. Tartarus could be the same as Hell but is only mention in connection with fallen angels. Gehenna is probably the same as the Lake of Fire which was prepared for Satan and his demons but unrepentant people will end up there too if they refuse the free gift of salvation through Jesus.

Miracles happen by faith (Gal 3:5) so if you want to see more miracles in your life, either believe or hang around others who believe.

God commands the disobedient but to this who love Him, He whispers His invitation in their ear. The person who accepts all God’s invitations is joyful & content.

Knowledge & wisdom are both important to succeed in life. The Bible is the best place to find wisdom!

Grace is defined as undeserved favor. It can also carry the idea of a piece of jewelry or clothing given to show favored status. It carries the idea of influence, similar to how someone in love is influenced by the object of that love. The Bible says that everyone has been given grace. Will you wear the free gift of grace.

We are headed to Evangel University in Springfield for the CBC Centennial Celebration. I wanted to share some of Oshiana and my memories as we head that way!

Everybody draws the line somewhere about how far to let your bodies desires go. But God knows the right place to draw them because He is the designer of them. Let Him show you where to draw the lines!
