     | 40,811 views

    At times we have to strip ourselves of the stiff and wooden qualities and disrobe ourselves of the contentment and complacency that strangles our devotion to holiness and boldness.

    Romans 1:13-17 There’s no doubt about Paul - he was sold out for Christ! He could not have accomplished such a life of faith without this trait! A verse that stands out regarding being sold out for God is... Matthew 6:33 “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness...” The word “seek” ...read more

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Revelation 3:15-16 Supporting Texts: Proverbs 24:30-34, James 4:17, Matthew 25:24-30, Hebrews 6:12 INTRODUCTION: Passivity is one of the greatest dangers to a believer’s spiritual growth and destiny.

As one reads the messages of Christ to these seven churches, a basic format ...read more
