    Palm Sunday welcome of the king and an alternative lifestyle is chosen, which is very different from the world’s norm of authority and power.

    The Believer’s Judgement Part 2

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Dec 22, 2020
     | 1,593 views

    I want to approach this message concerning the believer’s judgement with several questions. Let me say, it will be our works, the deeds done in the body, not a judgement of self.

    I. When is the Believer’s Judgement? 1. When does it take place? 2. From the time of the rapture, until the new Heaven and new Earth. Explain the events, use book. When will it take place? a. I believe there will be two phases to Christ’s second coming. Revelation 22:12 b. The rapture of the ...read more

     | 1,709 views

    This is a Christmas Eve homily that focuses on God's ultimate plan for humanity. The primary message is how God, in Jesus, share with us his true image. The challenge is for each of us to bear that image as he transforms us from the inside and lived out in the world.

    God lying in a manger! Celebrating Christmas should not be viewed as an event, we should view it from the perspective of a process. Christmas, as reflected in my Christmas series, Reliving Christmas, began with God. Our introduction to God is found in the creation story—God is eternal and existed ...read more
