    Many Christians today have their eyes set on rolling hills of worldly blessings, never realizing we have within our grasp the richest reserve of blessing in Jesus that will never go empty.

    Marks Of A Healthy Church

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 20, 2024
     | 1,761 views

    Within the necessary unity of the church, there is also beneficial diversity. Such unified diversity seems like a paradox, but in reality, it is a thing of beauty. Healthy churches must strive to promote unity and diversity at the same time.

    Marks of a Healthy Church Ephesians 4: 11-16 In the preceding verses of chapter four, Paul has spoken about the unity that is necessary within the body of Christ in order for the church to be effective in daily life and service unto the Lord. Within this necessary unity, there is also beneficial ...read more

    The encounter between the risen Christ and Mary Magdalene is not just a tender moment; it's a theological treasure trove that unveils the relational dynamics within the Godhead and our inclusion into this divine fellowship.

    Another amazing role of the Holy Spirit is to be a stream of living water that flows from within those who put their faith in Christ. We must be thirsty and drink before we will experience the refreshment.

    He Forgave

    based on 9 ratings
     | 6,028 views

    At the crucifixion of Jesus, human beings did their worst. The vileness of the human heart was displayed in all its ugliness. The creature executed the creator. At that dark moment, divine love triumphed and said, “Father, forgive them.”

    A biblical look at change for the Christian is encouraging. Scripture teaches that not only is change possible, it is fundamental to the gospel message. Christ’s ministry was a call to move us from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light.

    Intro: New Year is a time of new beginnings and more often than not we use this time to make many resolutions about what we would like to change or accomplish.
