    Nathanael, who is also known as Bartholomew, is confronted by a Saviour who seems to know so much – yet Nathanael is still allowed to be a disciple. We can also be disciples, despite the fact that we are known so well by Jesus.

    Message John 1:43-51 “Nathanael – great things are found in the strangest places” Great things can often be found in the strangest places. Maybe you have heard of the Dead Sea Scrolls.

    When man's rebellion against God grows strong, he determines to go his own way. God will allow man to have his own way but turns him over to the results of following his own way.

    ROMANS 1: 24-28 (32) EXCHANGED FOR TRUTH / THE TRUTH EXCHANGE As God put a homing device in migratory birds so that they know to fly to warmer weather when the temperature gets too cold, so He has put within man the homing device so that they should fly to Him away from evil.

    The church faces many difficulties and obstacles while serving the Lord. While these are unavoidable, we do not have to allow them to defeat us. We must maintain our focus on the Lord and follow the vision He has provided.

The church there began with just twelve believers (Acts 19:7), but through faithful effort they experienced amazing growth. Knowing the success in Ephesus, Paul desired them ...read more

    "Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people?" That is the question that many ask to prove that God either does not exist, or He doesn't care. It all comes down to what is and what is not God's will.

    The veil over the entrance to the Holy of Holies is what kept God in & the priests out. The veil, we know represents Jesus’ flesh that was torn to remove the Jewish priesthood and allow us to enter God’s Presence.

    The Veil 31 "You shall make a veil of blue and purple and scarlet material and fine twisted linen; it shall be made with cherubim, the work of a skillful workman.32 "You shall hang it on four pillars of acacia overlaid with gold, their hooks also being of gold, on four sockets of silver.33 "You ...read more
