  8. Can we have an impact on how much sin Christ had to bear on the cross?

    I’ve been contemplating this idea wondering can we have an impact on how much sin Jesus had to bear on the cross by how we live our lives today? Jesus’ sacrifice paid for all sins for all time. God’s omniscience saw how much sin Jesus would have to bear. Part of what God saw is what we are doing...

  13. Do You Agree?

    As brothers and sisters in Christ, how should we be treating one another? Does it matter what we say, or how we say it? Should we think before we speak? Should we speak in anger?
