We expose the ways in which Scripture is taken out of context to promote a works-based path to salvation, contrasting these distortions with the true gospel revealed in the Bible.

The Twisted Scriptures - Lesson 6 - Abortion - Eugene Jenkins

In this lesson from the Twisted Scriptures series, we examine what God’s Word truly says about the sanctity of life and the deception surrounding abortion.
