John 8:31,32 (KJV)
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

Jesus’s Name Examined In The Book Of Mormon
In the Bible, you will see that there are no references to the Name, Jesus, Christ or Jesus Christ, until Matthew 1:1.
Galatians 5:22-26
Galatians 5:22-26 (KJV)
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
Book Of Mormon Contradiction: Mosiah 4:2,3
The Book of Mormon claims that if we lived before the birth of Jesus, we can be forgiven by the blood of Jesus. This is contrary to the Bible.

David taught that those that love God “go from strength to strength”. They may have been shy in certain areas but God gives them boldness.
Prayer For The Persecuted
Lord, if the hearts of our enemies cannot be softened, I pray that a greater affliction may also come upon them.
Jesus And The Father Are One
Psalm 82 starts off by saying, “God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.” Who are these people that are called gods?
Those That Don’t Hearken To God
Those that trample on God’s laws will be dealt with harshly. Now is the time to repent or else the wrath of God will be felt.
Come To Jesus For Salvation
David explained how we can escape God’s wrath and anger. He said, “Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.”
The Spirit Came As The Baby Leaped
Blessed is Mary to be the mother of the Son of God. She declared, “he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.”

After talking with Herod, the wise men “departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.”
Mary’s Visit From The Angel Gabriel
Mary wondered how she could be pregnant, being kept modest in all things before the Lord. She had waited till marriage for any sexual relations.

Unto Us A Child Is Born
Many centuries passed but this sign of the baby Jesus’s birth was not forgotten. People anxiously awaited the coming of their King.

Persecution Of The Saints
The blood of the saints will cry out against the evil men and women of the world. At the same time, God’s people will never stop praising the Lord.

Many things we are attached to in life are idols and must be forsaken to be in His will. Look at the second commandment, for instance.

Led By God Versus Yourself
Being led by God is much different than being led by your own self and hoping or thinking you are saved.

Watch Your Tongue
I have met so many people that call themselves Christians, however, their life is not for the Lord. They live apart from His will.

What the Lord can do through us in prayer is more than we will ever know. Until we have given our hearts to God we will never know what this means.
Many False Teachers

Live Apart From Sin
There was a time, in days past, that each of us lived apart from God. We did what the lusts of the flesh desired.
All Unbelievers Go To Hell
My destination was also hell. My old life was so far gone. I had no control over my flesh. When it was weak, I gave into the pleasures it desired.
