We who preach the gospel must not think of ourselves as public relations agents sent to establish good will between Christ and the world. We must not imagine ourselves commissioned to make Christ acceptable to big business, the press, the world of sports or modern education. We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum. A.W. Tozer
Therefore let God-inspired Scripture decide between us; and on whichever side be found doctrines in harmony with the word of God, in favor of that side will be cast the vote of truth. --Basil of Caesarea
Once you learn to discern, there's no going back. You will begin to spot the lie everywhere it appears.

I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, putting me into service. 1 Timothy 1:12

The Marriage Bond


Marriage was ordained by God and it is clear in the Genesis account that woman was not create solely for the purpose of propagation of the race but for the outworking of man’s social relationship in companionship and love. …


The Bible clearly teaches that sexual union has purposes other than procreation. Indeed, Paul implies that frequent sexual intercourse in marriage is natural and indeed, advisable.
