The most crippling time for the church is summer time and vacations. People are traveling and spend their tithe, or drop it in a church they are visiting. Too many come home and having been away for weeks over the summer, have no sense of obligation to “make up” the shortfall in

The New Covenant in the blood of Christ, which we re-present at this hour, is the fulfillment of the Old. We forget this important reality at our peril, because it leads us to either pass by our indebtedness to our older brothers, the Jews, or, like certain preachers, think

DON'T QUIT
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
and you want to smile, but you have to sigh.

Life is queer

The word translated as “vision” in the KJV and “revelation” in the NIV and HCS means, a God-inspired sight. It’s not talking about a vision for the future, nor a picture of things coming later. It refers to godly insight. Godly insight about what? According to the second part of the verse, it
