    The Music Of Heaven

     | 10,179 views

    The book of Revelation has a host of happy hymns of harmony as part of the heavenly scene. Poems of praise are part of paradise. Joyful songs of jubilation to Jesus are a major part of this revelation about heaven.

    THE MUSIC OF HEAVEN based on Rev.15:1-8 By Glenn Pease Most of us are not gifted in the realm of music. Many of us feel pathetic in our ability to sing, and even more so with our ability to produce music. We can easily envy those to whom it comes easy.

    The reformation gave rise to many denominations, including the baptists. In this lesson we see how reformed theology is an important part of baptist history.

The goal of this course was not to cover every historical event in the past 2,000 years, as that would be beyond our grasp. But instead, it was to show the clear consistent ...read more

    Words matter. Proverbs gives us some advice on how to speak well.

    One of the most difficult things to do in life is to control what you say. We do a good job for a while but then in one weak moment and we can do irreparable damage.
