The New Church

Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Feb 8, 2022

The church is an organization that will have a similar life cycle as any living person. Is it possible that some churches need to die so new church's are born? Is your church fulfilling the spiritual needs of its membership.

The New Church Mark 13:28-32 Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz 28 “Now learn the parable from the fig tree: when its branch has already become tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near. 29 “Even so, you too, when you see these things happening, recognize that He is near, right at ...read more

Scanners Set To Discernment: Examples Of UFO Religions

Daniel's Vision Of The Ram, The Goat, And The Little Horn Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Feb 22, 2022

What we will see in this chapter is a clear picture of ruler's denying the Lord and trampling people underfoot, both believers and unbelievers.

Tonight we enter into chapter 8 in the book of Daniel. At this point in history, Israel had lost everything and were exiled into Babylon. God knew that His people needed some kind of encouragement. So, from this point on, chapters 8 through 12, the Scripture was originally written in Hebrew. ...read more

Eschatology 6 Of 16 The Tribulation Period

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 13, 2022

This will be the sixth sermon on this series on eschatology. Three of the six sermons preached thus far have dealt with that time described as The Tribulation period, which will last for seven years

This is an age that no one desires to live in.

I Saw You Under The Fig Tree

Contributed by Samuel M on Jan 23, 2024

What did Jesus see under the fig tree, and what was Nathaniel doing there? Maybe Nathanael was in a quiet prayer time under the fig tree, and Jesus saw or heard Nathaniel’s prayer. "I saw you under the fig tree" means I saw you in your quiet time alone with God under the fig tree.

Nathanael said to Him, “How do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” Nathanael answered and said to Him, “Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” John 1:48-49 Jesus and Nathanael had an instant ...read more

Sharpen The Working Of The Gifts Of Holy Spirit In Your People

Contributed by Samuel M on Jan 26, 2024

The Gifts of the Holy Spirit are irrevocable. However, if people misuse it, God will not take away the gifts, but he can remove the sharpness, causing the impact to fade over time.

God gives His Gifts of the Holy Spirit to his people, but if he wants to take the gift away from them, he removes the sharpness of the gift rather than the gift itself. When God removes the sharpness, it is like a dull knife that cannot be used to cut, but instead leaves scars and marks on the ...read more

The Anti-Christ

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 31, 2024

In the last four sermons on eschatology, we have been having a shouting time talking about: • THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH, • SECOND COMING OF CHRIST • TWO SERMONS ON THE RECEIVING OF OUR GLORIFIED BODIES.

But today we are going to be talking about something that is horrifying to even think about. We are going to be talking about TRIBULATION PERIOD in the book of Revelation. Most of the Book of Revelation deals with the subject of that period of time that is known as the “Tribulation Period”. ...read more

Stand For The Truth We Preach

Contributed by Samuel M on Feb 7, 2024

The Great Reset

Contributed by Bobby Brewer on May 29, 2021

The term “Great Reset” is not a biblical term. Rather, it’s used to describe the concept, some would say agenda, for a better world.
