    We need to contend for the faith because false teachers and non-Christians will try to wear us down so that we give up the faith fight!

    Multi Ethnic Bereavement

    Contributed by Davon Huss on Apr 30, 2017
     | 13,602 views

    I wrote this for a counseling class. It contains three parts: 1) Bereavement in religion 2) Bereavement in ethnic groups 3) Applications for pastoral and clinical counselors.

    To be used of the Lord to help those grieving is both satisfying and humbling. My personal prayer is that more mourners will be drawn to the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Gospel of Christ is the only thing that can bring true and lasting comfort. Jesus said, “Blessed are those that mourn, for they ...read more

    I am sharing this message as I prepare to speak in the Philippines to celebrate the anniversary of Don Stewart. During my preparations, I had several open visions where the Lord asked me to write about His humanity. He said tell them I am a high priest who can be touched; I was once human like them.

    Doors: Open Or Closed

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 24, 2017

     | 81,090 views

    The majority of the body of Christ believes that God opens doors (a "yes" answer to prayer) and closes doors (a "no" answer to prayer) in their lives. Does scripture support such a belief?

    The message today is one that I believe is going to challenge traditional thinking in the Body of Christ. How many of you have heard the following statements and, perhaps, even said them? ? When God opens a door no one can close it. ? When God closes a door no one can open it. ? When one door ...read more

    Bad Choices In The Tabernacle

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 28, 2021
     | 2,089 views

    We hear much today about self-proclaimed preachers who seem to care little about the Lord and His Holy Word but seem to care a great deal about their wealth and popularity. Phinehas and Hophni were not so concerned about popularity but they certainly cared about their creature comforts!

    Bad Choices In The Tabernacle Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:10-12 “Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of ...read more

    Some people regard Jesus to be like Santa Claus - He’s just a little further up the food chain. But as our Messiah, Jesus came to offer far more than a jolly elf. What is it that Jesus as Messiah offers that this world can not equal?

    It was the day after Christmas at a church in San Francisco. The preacher, was looking at the nativity outside when he noticed the baby Jesus was missing.

    Measure Upon Measure – Sorrow – The Restoration Of God - Part 8 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 4, 2025
     | 9 views

    What a ruined state lives are in with devastating sorrow. Sorrow is a result of the fall but what JOY results from the work of Christ. Our faith can be underpinned by an inexpressible joy, bathed in the glory of God. Jesus has done wonderful things changing sorrow into joy.

    MEASURE UPON MEASURE – SORROW – THE RESTORATION OF GOD - Part 8 In the last message we continued these consequences of sin resulting from Adam’s fall in Eden. Firstly we did guilt and shame, then separation, then the curse, and now we continue sorrow. Sin caused so much destruction but we also ...read more
