Repenting for Others

Church Clicks

Is online church real church? Should we view the rise of the online church as a good thing because many more people can be reached than before, or should we reject it as illegitimate?

Sexual Sin in the Church

'Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.’ Matthew 5:8 (NIV)Why tolerating sexual sin is satan’s silent strategy to disarm the church. As believers, we are aware that sexual sin is a compromise and, Biblically, should not be tolerated.
