    A practical challenge to trust Jesus. You don't have to have all the answers and the crowd around Jesus may be a little goofy, but perhaps He really can do what He says He can do. Cry out to Him!

    How Blind Beggars Get Healed Shall we stand for the reading of the Word . . . Mark 10 (NKJV) . . . 46 Now they came to Jericho. As He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the road begging. 47 And when he heard that it was ...read more

     | 803 views

    Some important things here. Firstly, the church business meetings! The trouble these have caused. We look at Pastors’ and elders’ wives and behaviour. What about the leaders’ kids running around unsupervised? All dealings must be impartial. Must teach on Christian responsibility.

    Addictions are of various sorts, and if one has to overcome any addiction it is possible only through Jesus Christ. It is possible to live a life free from every bondage, and this sermon will tell you how.

    We read in 2 Peter 2:19, “for we are slaves of anything that has conquered us.” (GNB) The above mentioned verse endorses the truth that a person becomes a slave to something, when they are overpowered by it. For instance, a person who is addicted to alcohol, may realize that the habit affects his ...read more
