  • Self Centredness Leads To Spiritual Death
    By Zac Poonen We can never enjoy deliverance from our self-life before we see something of its total corruption. Let us look at the elder son (in the parable in Luke 15), for he illustrates, perhaps better than anyone else in the Bible, the utter rottenness of the self-life.  The younger son in the parable is usually considered the worse of the two boys.

  • The Secret of Living A Godly Life
    By Zac Poonen Under the old covenant, people were exhorted to meditate on “the LAW of the Lord” (Psa.1:2). But under the new covenant, we are exhorted to meditate on “the GLORY of the Lord” (2 Cor. 3:18).  If we look only at the letter of God’s Word, we will become Pharisees, and we will build a church of Pharisees.  But if we look at the...

  • You are the Salt and Light of the world
    By Bill Shuler Pastor, Capital Life Church Newsweek magazine’s sensationalist cover story, headlined, “The Decline and Fall of Christian America,” was, in my view, the result of an underlying agenda that caused the article to draw the wrong conclusion.
