                    You do not know wealth, you do not understand prosperity, if you have not found Gods Word. It is the truth in the world of falsehood, and life in the midst of death. It reveals what is not seen clearly by the naked eye, and uncovers what men and their carnality has hidden.

                    Illustration:  Jesus, as an example
D. M. Stearns was preaching in Philadelphia. At the close of the service a stranger came up to him and said, “I don’t like the way you spoke about the cross. I think that instead of emphasizing the death of Christ, it would be far better to preach Jesus, the

                    In the early part of this century, a group of lawyers met in England to discuss the biblical accounts of Jesus’ resurrection. They wanted to see if sufficient information was available to make a case that would hold up in an English court of law. When their study was completed, they published the

                    When we choose to follow Jesus, we are walking in his steps. 
When I was being taught how to clear a minefield our instructor told us to step precisely in the footprint left by the person in front of us.  The concept was simple:  since the person in front of us stepped on a spot that didn’t set

                    As I listened to Dr Ron Hawkins on the Counseling Ministry DVD’s he said his dad who was a pastor told him after he had retired, “If I had it to do over I would preach more messages of comfort.  People have so much pain in their lives.”  It reminded me of the many times God would bring this text to

Some years ago, a 14-foot bronze crucifix was stolen from Calvary Cemetery in Little Rock, Arkansas. It had stood at the entrance to that cemetery for more than 50 years. The cross was put there in 1930 by a Catholic bishop and had been valued at the time at $10,000. The thieves apparently cut it
