    A study of the Beatitudes. Jesus begins His sermon on the mount answering the question: "What will it take to make you happy?" His answer, however, is far different from the way most people will answer. In fact, his answers appear to bring sorrow, not happiness.

    The return of Jesus is mentioned throughout the Bible. And, the Bible is clear that there is a heaven and a hell, and the decisions we make in this life time will determine where we will spend eternity.

I recently googled on the Internet that question. Most of the answers go something like this: “Christmas is a time ...read more

    At Pentecost, God not only unites us through His Holy Spirit, but God also provides for our growth and fellowship. God sent Jesus and Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to us and Jesus sends us in the the Church---the Spirit filled, and the Holy Spirit sealed back into the world to make disciples.

    THE OBLIGATION AND THE EVIDENCE Text: Romans 8:12-17 Rom 8:12-17  So then, brothers and sisters, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh—  (13)  for if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the ...read more
