Kingdom of God
“He didn’t say, ‘I am finished.’ He said it was.” When Jesus cried out, “It is finished” (John 19:30), many take it to mean the entire plan of salvation was completed at that moment.

Human Beings, Salvation
What if God’s greatest work isn’t just saving you—but preparing you for something eternal? God has always worked with flawed people. From David’s contrite heart to Moses’ reluctant leadership, from Abraham’s moments of fear to Peter’s impulsive loyalty—perfection was never the requirement. But a willingness to follow, to grow, and to be changed—that’s what God can work with. So what is it that makes one…
Salvation Reframed: From Scorecard to Spiritual Family
For centuries, debates over salvation have divided Christian thought. Some argue for “once saved, always saved,” while others warn that salvation can be lost. Still others accuse those who emphasize righteous living of trying to “earn” their salvation. But what if these debates all stem from a flawed premise?
