It Ain’t So

February 17, 2021 by Tim McCarter

My mother recently told me about receiving a telephone call. According to the caller she had won the Publisher’s Clearing House Sweepstakes, in spite of the fact that she never entered.

Saved By…?

February 17, 2021 by Tim McCarter

There are at least ten different passages in the New Testament which state that people are saved by “something,” in spite of the fact that so many people in the world today make the broad statement that we are “saved by faith – only” or “saved by grace – only.” I have also found at … [Read more…]
