     | 8,831 views

    Dynamics and Dimensions of Offering in New Testament context. For majority of Christians, the word 'offering' quickly invokes thoughts of money... but offering in true scriptural perspective is hardly ever about funds colection on a Sinday church service.

     | 16,194 views

    If God killed every Christian who lied, the churches would be empty. This does not excuse lying, but it does acknowledge our fallibility. The message is a study of one couple that attempted to deceive God and what He did about their deceit.

    “A man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property, and with his wife’s knowledge he kept back for himself some of the proceeds and brought only a part of it and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
