The Evangelical Universalist

The Evangelical Universalist Can an orthodox Christian, committed to the historic faith of the Church and the authority of the Bible, be a universalist? Is it possible to believe that salvation is found only by grace, through faith in Christ, and yet to maintain that in the end all people will be saved?

Is Christianity accepting Homosexuality

A census by Australian gay website samesame.com.au has found that 28% of gay men and 22% of lesbians are Christian compared to the Australian Census 2006 that shows 58% of the general population aged 15 to 44 are Christian.

I believe that John himself had no doubt whatever upon the matter, for he had received positive revelations and had given substantial testimonies on the subject. But in order to relieve their doubts, John said to British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain Declaration of war on Germany for invading German territory 3 September 1939 I am speaking to you from the Cabinet Room at 10 Downing Street.
