The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 1:2-10 - Message 2 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 27, 2023

Paul takes on the false teachers with no holes barred. Twice he states that they be accursed. This message examines the false gospel that had ensnared the Galatian churches to bring the grace of God into disrepute. True grace of God has no part in keeping the Law.

Eschatology 3 Of 16 Our Glorified Bodies (2 Of 2)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 13, 2022

In the last two sermons, we have been talking about the rapture of the church. I want to remind you again, the rapture is different from the second coming of Christ.

• At the Second Coming, the Lord will literally come to the earth and set up His kingdom on earth for a thousand years. • When the rapture of the church takes place, the Lord will not come back to the earth, but the church will be caught up to meet Him in the air. Look at 1 Thess 4:17 “Then we ...read more
