    Wake-Up Call

     | 6,763 views

    Every believer has three enemies - the world system, the flesh, and the Devil. If we don't wake-up, heed and act on Biblical warnings, we will not only be spent but also taken down. God's truth is the best protection against Satan's lies.

    Opening illustration: As we moved to our new home in the Middle-East after the government transferred Maureena and me to a previous location in the mountains, we never expected the place to be hiding scorpions which would show up regularly in our bathrooms and poisonous snakes that would appear in ...read more

    All the things that Paul had done - all the sacrifices he had made for the Kingdom - all that Luke could have told us about the Life and Ministry of Paul, he spends time to write about this boy named Eutychus who fell asleep and fell out of a 3rd Floor window.

TITLE: THE DANGER OF FALLING ASLEEP IN CHURCH SCRIPTURE: ACTS 20:7-12 This is a very interesting text that presents many Preachers a challenge to apply real practical application. ...read more
