Conformed or Transformed?
This item was written by my dear friend Doug Dodd (now in glory). It speaks to the effect of our new life in Christ as opposed to religion and human effort.

A New Tank?
Sometimes I don’t know exactly what I’m going to write about until I actually sit at my desk, in front of my computer. In this case I’m at my seldom used desk at our actual church building. This is a rare event, indeed! With the advent of the automobile, and electronic communications the church office…
Marriage: On the Rock, or On the Rocks?
Marriage between men and women (there is no other way) is an institution which has for it’s establishment God, Himself. He created Eve as a helpmeet for Adam, so that he would not be alone. And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an…
The Amazing Body
For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made…

A New Creature
God salvages the individual by liquidating him and then raising him again to newness of life. A. W. Tozer (1897–1963) This new life impedes us in our natural outlook and ways . . . until the Son of God is formed in us and both the natural and the holy are the same. Oswald Chambers…
