    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 10, 2025
     | 282 views

    In these verses, Matthew describes the responsibilities given to the apostles by the Lord Jesus. He anointed them with special powers and abilities to show people the power of God but also warned Mark 13;9-13of coming persecution for the cause of the Gospel.

    The Lord Jesus gave the apostles specific responsibilities and gifts to minister to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. His role as the Promised Messiah would be to not deliver the nation from the bondage of Rome, but to free them and all people from a far worse bondage, that of sin and it ...read more

     | 659 views

    Many struggle with what we should be doing today. We wrestle with not reading the word, not praying, or even not sharing Jesus. Then, fear takes over and we choose to hibernate rather than being bold. So, ask yourself, are we willing to just do what God has told us to do? Apollos was!

     | 10,486 views

    The Ministry of Praise and Worship isn’t new fad for today’s 21st century church. The beginning of creation gave God praise and in Revelations God is worshiped.

On the contrary since God spoke, the beginning of creation is disclosed in the Book of Genesis giving praise to God. Then ...read more
