    The ascension of Jesus forcefully wrapped up his post-resurrection appearances to the disciples and many hundreds more. It made it glaringly obvious that Jesus came from God, is God, and was returning to God.

    We see the disciples' simple obedience to God, simple dependence on God in prayer, and simple faith in the Scriptures.

    Luke wrote the book of ACTS. It’s a sequel to the Gospel of LUKE which gives an account of the life of Jesus and all that He said and did. • ACTS tells us how the risen Lord works to build His church by His Word and the Holy Spirit, in particular covering the works of two principal apostles ...read more

    What is Easter all about? What does Jesus' death and resurrection mean for our lives? These are the central questions of the seven-week Easter season. We may not be able to fully understand the meaning of these questions answers, but that does not stop us from bearing witness to those answers.

    What is Easter all about? What does Jesus’ death and resurrection mean for our lives? These are the questions that have been on my mind and heart this past week. Is Easter a one-day holiday in the spring where we simply gather with family for a nice meal, maybe exchange small gifts, hunting ...read more

    The Prophecy In The Upper Room, Part 2

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 19, 2022
     | 1,037 views

    The Lord Jesus gave a promise to His disciples and those who would come to Him for salvation that He would return for them (John 14:1-3). These verses are considered to be His teaching on the "Rapture". Are we correct in this interpretation? We will look at the evidence.

    On the night before He was to undergo the trial of the crucifixion and the redemptive work it ensued on behalf of fallen humanity, Jesus had given the disciples the assurance that even though He would soon leave them, He also promised that He would return and "receive you to Myself, that ...read more

    If Jesus is who you are looking for? -You won’t find Him at the bottom of a dead drink! -You won’t find Him at top of a dead career! -You won’t find Him at the end of a dead ladder! -You won’t find Him in the beginning of a dead relationship!

    Luke 24:1-6; Acts 1:9-11 Questions that Must be Answered April 17, 2022 The Two Angels appear at the tomb and ask the women, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?” It’s an age-old question that needs an answer from every one of us today!

    The mysterious Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity. After Jesus rose from the dead, and spent time with his disciples and others in the city, he told them that though he was leaving, he would send the Holy Spirit to lead them and guide them in their mission.

    After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God. 4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for ...read more

     | 1,934 views

    Our study of the basic doctrines of the Christian faith continues with an examination of the Holy Spirit, Who He is and what He does as presented in the Scriptures.

    We have examined vital Biblical teachings on God the Father, God the Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, and we now come to the Person and work of God the Holy Spirit, no doubt the most neglected and misunderstood member of the Holy Trinity. I say that in light of how the church throughout its history ...read more

    This message views the revival at Pentecost and notes how revival often occurs after a season of prayer and during times of economic hardship. Also noted is how true revival will continue to thrive and not die out quickly.
