They visualize a God who is going to do what they want done. ILLUS: A woman named Donna had a conversation with her 4 year old niece. The little ...read more

    In the Old Testament the temple was the central place of worship. However, in the New Testament the focus is on the church, which is not a building, but a people of God who come together for teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread and prayer.

    We read in Act 2:46-47, And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, ate their food with gladness and singleness of heart, praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved. ...read more

    Another interpretation of Peter's Vision, about clean and unclean. What if this means that you and I are now considered clean and washed and totally forgiven? I believe it does! God says it. I believe it! Now there is nothing between us and God!
