    Is Christmas In Danger Of Extinction?

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 24, 2012
     | 2,260 views

    My all-age talk for Christmas Day 2012. Using an illustration of the extinction of the Christmas Island Pipistrelle I ask people to think about the future of the Church in England. Will we listen to the leading authority in our Church and take action?

    Since 2009 nights on Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean will never be the same again. On 26 August 2009 the sound of the Christmas Island Pipistrelle was recorded for the last time. Since then there has been silence. The tiny animal was 2 cm in length and weighed less than a £1 coin. At the start ...read more

    When The Ark Of God Is Captured By The Enemy

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Jun 18, 2021
     | 4,008 views

    The ark of God represents the presence of God. It was the symbol of God's power and glory in the nation of Israel. When the bearer of the ark of God allows sin to reign in his heart, the presence of God departs from the ark.

    TEXT: 1 Samuel 4:10-11 (NLT) "So the Philistines fought desperately, and Israel was defeated again. The slaughter was great; 30,000 Israelite soldiers died that day. The survivors turned and fled to their tents. The Ark of God was captured, and Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were ...read more

    The problem with information is that we all have information but what do you do with it. e.g. Sons of the prophet did not prosper with it ( Elisha when he crossed Jordan sea).The woman with the issue of blood touched the hem of Jesus' garment and God showed up for her.

    Text: Ps 118: 5-11. “I called upon the Lord in distress: the Lord answered me, and set me in a large place. The Lord is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me? The Lord taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me. It is better to trust ...read more
