February 18, 2018 by Lighthouse Trails Editors 3 Comments

By David Dombrowski The Gospel is a standard and the central theme of the entire Bible. We can think of it like a balancing scale, weighing truth against error. But how much does the Gospel weigh? That might sound like a foolish question, but let’s take a moment to see how a balancing scale works. … [Read more…]

July 9, 2017 by Lighthouse Trails author Leave a Comment

By Ray Yungen God’s Desire Just what exactly is God’s desire for mankind? Does He want to send people to Hell? Does He want anyone to live eternally without Him?

Ironside: What Does it Mean to Repent and Be Saved?

June 11, 2017 by Lighthouse Trails author Leave a Comment

LTRP Note: Lighthouse Trails believe that one of the reasons so many proclaiming Christians are turning to contemplative mysticism is because they have been following a non-biblical “Gospel” that has kept them from a true born of the Spirit (born-again) relationship with Jesus Christ. Thus, mystically-induced experiences take the place of that relationship. The following article by … [Read more…]

November 20, 2016 by Lighthouse Trails author

By Harry Ironside Although the word substitution is not in the Bible, it stands for a great truth that runs through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation.

By Roger Oakland As the world continues to plunge into further darkness and despair, “new” spirituality leaders say it is the church’s fault, particularly that of rigid Christians who won’t bend their beliefs or convictions.
