Evil Is Real (Part Five)

CGG Weekly by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Abstaining From Evil

You Have Not So Learned Christ

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

While the truth of Christ has the power to elevate, our worldly orientation blinds us, dulls our minds, and pulls us downward to abject slavery to sin.


Preventing Deception

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Religious hucksters use the bait of self-gratification, selling non-essential or even heretical ideas. The elect resist deception by knowing the real article.

Sermon by David F. Maas

Biblical meekness brings strength under control, enabling God's called out ones to tame the temper, calm the passions, managing the unruly impulses.


Principled Living (Part Seven): Enduring to the End

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh
