    Let The Fire Fall Series

    Contributed by Nkwor Sunday Sunny Azuka Onyekachukwu on Dec 7, 2023
     | 4,218 views

    The fire of the Lord works in two~folds. To the believer, it equips, purifies and sanctified. To the unbeliever, it destroys them and their works.

    LET THE FIRE FALL Fire is a symbol of God. Often times, our God manifests himself in fire. The Bible says in Hebrews 12:29 Hebrews 12:29 For our God is a consuming fire. Fire, no doubt is synonymous with refining and purifying according to Malachi 3:2-3 Malachi 3:2-3 But who may abide the ...read more

    The Church Of Thyatira: The Consequences Of Appeasing Jezebel

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 23, 2023
     | 1,301 views

    Thyatira was the smallest of the seven cities mentioned in Revelation, Chapters 2 and 3. It is also the city about which little is known. Yet, it is to this church that Jesus addresses His longest letter.

    Thyatira was founded by the Macedonian conqueror Alexander the Great some 300 years before the birth of Christ. The name Thyatira means "unceasing sacrifice". It more than likely received this name because it was a military "buffer city", located some 40 miles southeast of ...read more

    We must build Gods way, not Mans way. God is asking His church to come back to the altar

    (1Kings 18:30 ) 31 Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the LORD came, saying, “Israel shall be your name”; 32 with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD.

     | 2,226 views

    Elijah is credited with 10 miracles happening during his ministry, some of which we will talk about here. Yet Elijah has no book in the Bible named after him. Elijah was human with emotions, disappointments, fears, and doubts. ‌

    Our prayers are often ineffective. Scripture reveals principles of effective prayer, principles we will want to observe.

    A movie by the title of The In-Laws came out in 1979. There was a re-make of it in 2003, but my favorite version is still the original one.

    American Idols July 4 Sermon

     | 3,125 views

    America has become the land of idolatry. But before I make that claim, I need to make sure that I have the right definition of idolatry.

    Illus: Dr. Billy Graham says, "We usually think of an idol as a religious figure carved of wood or stone, perhaps in some primitive tribe far removed from civilization. But we have our "idols" today, because an idol is anything that you worship in place of the living God. Some ...read more

    I guess you heard about the two fellows out on a hot sunny day. One of them complained, "I am hot, let's find a place to cool off." The other one said, "Yea, me too! Where do you want to go?"

    The grumbler said, "Well, the coldest place I know of is the church down the street, let's go there..." Now, that has been told as a joke on many occasions, but all the humor is drained from it, because it is the truth in many cases. Beloved, God never meant for His church to be a ...read more

    During the first half of the Great Tribulation, God sends two ambassadors from heaven to preach the Gospel to the people in Jerusalem. Their ministry is to call the people to repentance before it is too late.

    Throughout history, even in its darkest moments, God raises up prophets and preachers to bring His Word and the promise of salvation to anyone who repents and turns to Him for salvation. Although God pours out His wrath upon the world during the seven years of the Great Tribulation, He also ...read more
