Self Control

Every Person NEEDS Jesus!
In Romans 3:23, God's Word (the Bible) declares: “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”. Many will insist they are a “good person” and will therefore go to heaven.

The Experts, The Majority or The Almighty
It’s safe to say that the plans/decisions we make are influenced by what we know (or don't know) and who we listen to (or don't listen to). In the Bible, Proverbs 15:22 says "Without counsel, plans go awry, but in the multitude of counsellors they are established." But what if the people we seek...

Your Anger: Righteous OR Raging?
Do you control your anger, or does it control you? In the Bible, we do see Jesus get angry: when He clears the temple on two occasions (John 2:13-22, Matthew 21:12-17) and when He calls out the religious leaders (Matthew 23). The Bible also tells us that Jesus "knew no sin" (2 Corinthians 5:21)…
