Did you know that at the end of your life you will be tested by God, and found either 'true' or 'false'? His consuming fire will reveal the true nature of your profession of faith and that of all of your works. Thankfully, God speaks to us through His Word to help prepare us for that final analysis, and thus it is the one voice that we can trust and depend on completely, the voice that has already proven itself tried and true throughout all ages. To help you on your journey towards eternity, twice a week Pastor Paul Cheng explains a few verses from the Bible, simply and powerfully.

Thou Shalt Not Covet (Exodus 20:17)

What makes this virtually invisible sin so uniquely offensive to God? How and why does it wreak havoc on the believer’s life? How can you and I overcome its subtle, twisted grip over us?
