    The final command of Paul to the Church in expectation of the rapture, it is the command to be REAL

    "BE REAL!" And now we arrive at the final command of Paul to the Church in expectation of the rapture, it is the command to be Real!

     | 7,180 views

    Know what it means to be the light of Christ to illumine the way for others to find Jesus Christ as their Savior.

    I BELIEVE THE FIRST THING ANYONE DOES WHEN ENTERING A DARKENED ROOM IS TO FEEL ALONG THE WALL INSIDE THE DOOR FOR THE LIGHT SWITCH TO TURN ON THE LIGHTS.

He endured being betrayed by on of the 12 apostles, deserted by all his closest friends and followers, falsely accused, being mocked and ...read more

    "i Speak As To Children"

    Contributed by Kyle Campbell on Aug 15, 2022
     | 1,648 views

    In 2 Corinthians 6:13 Paul said, “I speak as to children” which obviously shows Paul’s concern and love. In this text we can find several instructions that’ll benefit the children with whom God has blessed us (Psalm 127:3-5).

    Introduction. The Bible occasionally contains passages of dual application. An example of this would be in Ephesians 5:22-32 where Paul teaches about the relationship of husbands and wives, which he likens to Christ and the church. A similar passage is in 2 Corinthians 6:11-18 where Paul makes ...read more
