    Pride & prejudice ruled in the Church at Corinth. Church members were using the wrong standards and motivated by pride in their relationships ot church leaders. What is the proper attitude toward spiritual leaders?

    Most of you are likely familiar with the novel Pride and Prejudice and the movie that resulted from it. I don't know much about it other than that has been on my TV more than any other single movie; it's my wife's favorite movie and it probably qualifies as a chick flick. I believe ...read more

    The events described in Revelation Chapter 6 describe the terrors that will come upon the earth. The lost are like sheep without a shepherd about to face this horrid time. We must bring them to Jesus before it is too late.

    Bible prophecy is not preached in a majority of churches today. The sad fact is that a lot of "churches" don't bother to preach from the Bible but are more than happy to cater to the unholy trinity of "me, myself, and I". They are in the business of people pleasing and ...read more
