Message: “075 Can the Unbeliever Be Baptized?” from YouTube

Message: “074 See Here Is Water” from YouTube
A message from the series “Five Minutes With the Word.” As Philip preached to the eunuch about Jesus, they came to water and the eunuch wanted to be baptized.

Message: “073 Prophecies of the Suffering Savior” from YouTube

Message: “071 Philip Meets the Ethiopian Eunuch” from YouTube

Our society has a big tendency to label anyone who believes in a conservative viewpoint “narrow-minded.” This is especially true in religion. But Jesus was “narrow-minded” in the sense that He demanded obedience and adherence to truth.
Message: “070 God’s Two Laws of Pardon” from YouTube
A message from the series “Five Minutes With the Word.” God has two laws for forgiveness because sinners stand in two different relationships to Him.

Both groups need forgiveness and Jesus provides for that forgiveness.
Message: “068 Ancient Israel Warned Us” from YouTube
A message from the series “Five Minutes With the Word.” The lesson to Christians from 1 Corinthians 10 is that we have been saved from the bondage of sin but we are not yet in heaven.
