     | 3,265 views

    Prophecies of the return of Christ or end of the world are unprofitable and erroneous. Not even Jesus would attempt it. Our work is to be like Christ to the world.

    Last Sunday After Pentecost 2014 Extraordinary Form Modern so-called prophets seem to be rising out of the Protestant and Pentecostal worlds every couple of years or so. There’s even a rare Catholic among them sometimes. Their stock-in-trade seems always to be a prediction of the return of ...read more

    ALL RIGHT, EVERYONE! PAY ATTENTION! THIS IS SOMETHING YOU NEED TO HEAR! Have I aroused your interest? Are you at least curious what I'm about to say that can justify such verbal arm-waving?

    Most Christians act just like people in the world. Why? Because they don't realize they're Sons of God, what that means, and what Christ has actually done in them! This message is a powerful revelation that can revolutionize a Christian's life.
