"Understanding Salvation"

Welcome to the Morning Worship at College Heights Baptist on August the ninth, 2026 service begins at 10:30 AM Let the heavens be glad, and the earth rejoice! Let the sea and everything in it shout his praise! Let the fields and their crops burst out with joy! Let the trees of the forest sing for joy before the Lord, for he is coming! He is coming to judge the earth. He will judge the world with justice, and the nations with his truth.

It is impossible for us to be the children of God naturally, to love our enemies, to forgive, to be holy, to be pure, and it is certainly impossible for us to follow God naturally, consequently the fundamental fact to recognize is that we must be born again.
