Can I Lose My Salvation?
This question has stirred up significant debate within the Christian community, often leading to divisions among denominations. However, I aim to provide reassurance to believers that Christians cannot lose their salvation, based on several key points. Let’s delve into this crucial topic and find peace in the truth of God’s Word.
I’m an Atheist. Why should I become a Christian?
Truthfulness is paramount. You must be able to explain why you accept or reject a worldview, including the religion in question.

Christianity opposes blind faith. The Bible’s view of faith is about trust, not belief without evidence. It’s about reasonable trust in Jesus and His message. Just as atheists can’t claim definitive evidence, neither can Christians; our knowledge is limited, and we act on justified beliefs. Christianity, rooted in reason and evidence, deserves a thoughtful approach.

A Nation in a State
Ramaphosa said last year that his State of the National Address is about seeing hope where there is despair and pointing out solutions to the crises. The ANC is convinced that they are the best political solution for the country. However, when we judge the tree by the fruits it bears, not by the fruit it talks about, the true state of the nation paints a dark picture of a government that has failed us miserably.
