Rightly Defining the Word of Truth

CGG Weekly by Charles Whitaker

Where 'dispensation' appears in God's Word, it never means 'a period of time'. Nor does the Greek word behind it carry the notion of a segment of time.

The Gift of Discernment and Godly Love

'Ready Answer' by Ronny H. Graham

Scripture warns about end-time deceivers who will seduce church members to ungodly beliefs and ways. We must make righteous judgments to reject what is false.

Commentary by David C. Grabbe

Patterns That We Live With

Sermon by Charles Whitaker (1944-2021)

God works in patterns and God has wired our minds to think in patterns. We need to be thankful for them and be careful that we don't misuse them.

Why do so many nominal Christians reject works and obedience to God's law? Largely because they fail to gather God's whole counsel on this subject.
