Irresistible Preaching-Glenn Conjurske

Irresistible Preaching – Glenn Conjurske Irresistible Preaching That there is something very desperately wrong with most of the preaching of the present day ought to go without saying.

Another False Definition of Repentance-Glenn Conjurske

Another False Definition of Repentance – Glenn Conjurske Another False Definition of Repentance It is common for all antinomians to define repentance as a change of mind.

Acts 16:31-Glenn Conjurske

William BoothActs 16 : 31 – Glenn Conjurske Acts 16:31 IntroductionActs 16:31 is one of the most abused texts in the Bible.
