    The older generation, oi vey, they just don't get it do they? They act like we're on some sort of pleasure cruise to heaven. I really can't understand it myself. These churches will be dead in ten, twenty, thirty, or forty years.

    Through the power of God, Lazarus was brought back to life after being dead for days. Let us explore five key points from this miraculous story and discover how they relate to us spiritually.

    Point 1: The Power of God's Timing (John 11:6) In the story of Lazarus, we witness Jesus deliberately delaying His arrival to the scene. This delay may seem puzzling, but it reminds us that God works according to His perfect timing. In our own lives, we often find ourselves waiting for answers ...read more

    The situations of some people whose destinies are being manipulated by the enemy can be described as the living among the dead, but deliverance is possible through the power of the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Sardis was a church that had a reputation for being alive - but Jesus saw it as dead. How can we avoid falling into the same patterns that threatened Sardis?

    This is the sixth message in this series that looks at the letters to the seven churches in the book of Revelation. This message examines the letter to the church at Sardis and how they were spiritually dead and didn't know it.

    As depressing as it might be the opening passage of this letter sounds more like an obituary. The body of believers in Sardis is dead….well almost. Only faint life signs of a faithful remnant remain. For the majority there it was too late, their faith had already flat lined. What begins ...read more
