Why Saving Faith Is Impossible Without Repentance

Why Saving Faith Is Impossible Without Repentance - Weekly Blog Post by Dr. Craig Biehl - night sky with brake lights and head lights

We are saved by grace through faith in the person and work of Jesus Christ—alone. Nothing can be added to Christ’s perfect work or to faith by which the salvation He accomplished becomes ours. Simple faith the size of a mustard seed unites to Christ, in whom the righteousness of His perfect obedience and payment […]

Death by Relevance

Death by Relevance - Weekly Blog Post by Dr. Craig Biehl - 4 post-modern people on street dressed up in punk

God created, orders, sustains, and owns everything. Apart from God we have nothing, can do nothing, and can know nothing. He determines our existence, purpose, and destiny, without whom our every pursuit reduces to pointless absurdity. Therefore, we owe God all love, honor, and obedience—with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength—forever. Nothing, then, is […]

We compared wishful thinking to the assurance of Christian hope, and saw that hope can be false, uncertain, or certain according to the ability and […]

Two Unbearable Words: The Nature of Christian Hope (Part 1 of 2)

Two Unbearable Words: The Nature of Christian Hope (Part 1 of 2) - Weekly Blog Post by Dr. Craig Biehl - dog looking out window in winter

Two small words. When heard on the battlefield, in the hospital waiting room, or in our darkest thoughts, they bring despair. Two words that carry such anguish that no one can withstand their power. What, then, are these two unbearable words? “No hope.” Proverbs 18:14 tells us, “The spirit of a man can endure his […]

Eternal Health, Wealth, Success, and Power

Eternal Health, Wealth, Success, and Power - Weekly Blog Post by Dr. Craig Biehl - very expensive white car

Many popular preachers today teach that God always wants us healthy, wealthy, successful, and powerful in this life. Their message implies, and sometimes explicitly states, that we only lack these blessings because we lack faith. In other words, God intends none of these problems for His beloved children, while the blame for our earthly troubles, […]
