    based on 107 ratings
     | 24,395 views

    Jesus gives His disciples some signs to look for in the end times - but not so they would focus on the signs, but so that they wouldn’t panic and would do the Master’s will instead

    Today we’re going to study the end times. No, I’m not going to set a date for Jesus’ return. No, I’m not going to answer all questions about the Tribulation or the Rapture. But what we are going to see is what Jesus tells us to think about the last days. And it might actually surprise you. 1 As ...read more

    How can you tell you may be bordering on betrayal? Learn from Judas, Peter and the other disciples in this exposition of Luke 22:24-38.

    “The Sign of Secret Sins” Luke 22:24-38 How can you really tell what’s going in someone’s mind? You can’t! The best we can do is listen for verbal signals and watch for visual signals.

    All of us are in deep debt from sin. There is no way we can pay for our debt of sin. Just as Noah received Grace from the Lord, we also can receive God’s grace and accept God forgiveness of sin and live a life of victory.
