Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

The best weapon against the evil of our human nature is to develop the mind of Christ within us to displace our carnal nature.

We should continually live and think on the same wavelength as God does, maintaining a close relationship with Him as we continue in the sanctification process.


Many Are Called, But Few Are Chosen (Part Eleven)

Like a boxer, we must exert ourselves with a broad spectrum of skills to subdue our carnal bodies, mortifying the flesh with maximum self-discipline.

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Job had not achieved spiritual maturity, but had assumed the arrogant stance of attempting to debate the Creator on his own level.

Sermonette by Ryan McClure

Many believe that God is unable to look on sin, yet many scriptures show that God's eyes run to and fro through the earth, observing the evil and the good.


Conspiracy Theory (Part Eighteen)

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

The meteoric rise of immorality in this country has made it dangerous, leading people to select charismatic tyrants to lead them into dependency.


How God Deals With Conscience (Part Two)

We may have guilty consciences like Joseph's brothers and self-pity like Jacob, but we can break through if we acknowledge God as Jacob and Elisha did.


Homosexual Marriage?
