Noah's Ark: A Picture of Salvation - Genesis 6:9-22 - Aug 18, 2002 - 232
The story of Noah and the Ark is more popular than ever before.

The Triumphant Christ - 1 Peter 3:18-22 - Mar 13, 2005 - 599
This is the hardest passage in the New Testament. That’s what my Greek professor said when we were studying I Peter in seminary. I recall him saying that there are so many possible views about these verses that it is impossible to be certain what they mean. The problem partly relates to the Gr ... More
Leading Others Upward - Malachi 2:1-9 - May 11, 2003 - 1259
