    It is clear that these verses show how wicked the human race had become, and that God was certainly justified in destroying it and beginning again with Noah and his family.

    "In the realm of reality, we need also a “shield” for our protection against doubts, uncertainties, negativism, or even false teachings that bombard us in all angles."

    “For we did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

     | 9,781 views

    When Jesus cleansed the Temple, it was symbolic of His determination to purify His Church, and, after His coming into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, to purge out the things which defile the temples of our bodies. Sanctification.

    What The World Needs Now Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 31, 2021
     | 3,730 views

    What the World Needs Now "is love, sweet, love." But what does that kind of love look like, especially in the context of the great sin? Jesus provides us with a powerful lesson about the kind of love we need to receive and offer to others.

    Most of us here are familiar with that hit song written by Burt Bacharach, “What the World Needs Now.” And of course, as bad as I am with notes, I’m even worse with lyrics, but in this case, I do remember the next few words—“Is love, sweet, love.” And admittedly, the song strikes a chord with ...read more
