     | 11,072 views

    This message points to the awesome power seen at Pentecost and the power available to us today. In this message I also draw an analogy between the story of the Tower of Babel and Pentecost. There are many notable differences.

    In this message the fcous is on how the resurrection changed everything. One man recently told me that his church does not make a "big deal" of the cross. The cross and the resurrection are CENTRAL to our faith. Without them we have nothing.

Imagine that for years and years they have watched as this man’s family and friends have carried him everyday to the Temple gate to beg for money. That was his job....that was his ...read more

    George Mueller was known for his powerful prayer.
