Someone said that the idea of redemption in a world of sin and tragedy constitutes the noblest concept ever to enter the mind of God or the awareness of a human ...read more

    Do not seek vengeance on others or render evil to anyone. Injustice is everywhere but leave it in the Lord’s hands. Then we have the words “Pray without ceasing” and we look at a lot of references for that. We will consider joy and rejoicing as well.

    MESSAGE 11 - 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 5:15-17 – VENGEANCE, REJOICING ALWAYS, AND PRAYING WITHOUT CEASING There is a fair bit of scripture in this message. It deals with vengeance, injustice, persecution and rejoicing and we look at a lot of verses dealing with those matters. PART 1 ...read more
