The Case For Daily Repentance: Examining Yourself Daily In Your Walk With Christ

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Oct 26, 2022

One of the best things you can do is sit down with another Christian or your pastor and confess the sin. It loses a lot of power when you share it with someone else.

Today I’d like to make the case to you for the concept of daily repentance. As Christians we know we must be born again of the Spirit to share in the inheritance of Christ. We must be truly born again. We must be a new person. And as a new person in Jesus Christ we have the holy spirit within us. ...read more

"Peter, Feed My Sheep” (2 Of 21)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022

Jesus told Peter, "Feed my sheep." Every housewife can relate somewhat to this, as she feeds her family. Also most housewives know the value of a well balanced diet.

The Importance Of Teaching Bible Prophecy

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 13, 2022

The events that Jesus spoke of in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 are coming to pass more rapidly each day. Bible Prophecy needs to be taught in the churches, for our "Blessed Hope" is about to appear (Luke 21:28: Titus 2:11-15).

The events currently happening between Russia and Ukraine demonstrate the obvious instability of worldwide leadership, the continuous slide into debauchery, perversion, along with increasing hatred, blind rage, and violence against one another and God. Some people are even promoting the insane ...read more

Prepare For Revival Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 5, 2022

Revival affects our relationship to God, but also to one another. Peter talks about how as our salvation affects us it should give us a love for the unlovely. Jesus goes so far as to say, by this will all men know that you are my disciples that you love one another.
