Quite possibly, he has Daniel pen these words because of his personal experience of God working in his life. The Holy Spirit chose to include the words of this ...read more

    So many people, even Christians, are confused on what is right and wrong because of the current climate of the flood of lies being spread by all news sources. We must hold to the Holy Spirit and God's Word to illuminate us with the truth of God.

    Having instructed Timothy on relationships with widows and elders, now Paul addressed relationships between slaves and masters. Paul emphasized the importance of submission and obedience so that God's Word will be held in high esteem.

    Introduction: A. The relationship between bosses and employees can be fodder for many jokes and most of them are not too funny! (Especially if you are the boss) 1. I heard about a boss who put a sign on the company bulletin board that announced: “To err is human, to forgive is not a company ...read more

    He will faithfully forgive us when we ask. But if when Nero demands we drop the incense in prayer to the emperor, if we deny Christ is Lord, then He must deny us.

    Thursday of 9th Week in Course 2018 Reformation/Revolution St. Paul wrote the second letter to bishop Timothy during his final imprisonment. Here he calls himself a “criminal,” probably because the cruel emperor Nero had made profession of faith in Christ a capital crime. It is likely that Paul ...read more

    Time reveals a person’s loyalty. Today we must apply much precaution to whom or to what we are loyal to! Most people do not deeply reflect as to why, or from where, they get their loyal convictions to someone or something, be it a friend, sports team, political party, or a religion or church!

    Loyalty: Do You Know Where Yours Is? Capt. Kelly Durant 10-11-15 Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
