    We live in a world that believes up is down, one + one = three, girls can be boys, and boys can be girls.

    Did God Do Wrong To Kill All The Canaanites?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 17, 2024
     | 591 views

    Numerous times during my career, unbelievers have used God's judging the Canaanites as an excuse not to believe in God. They insinuate that God did evil in executing the people, particularly the children. Let's correct the view; God did the just thing!

    If God Is Love, Why Did He Hate Esau?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Nov 4, 2024

     | 604 views

    “Yet I have loved Jacob, but Esau I have HATED, and I have turned his mountains into a wasteland and left his inheritance to the desert jackals’” (Malachi 1:2-3 NIV - emphasis mine)

    The Bible is very clear that God’s essence is love (1 John 4:7-10). He has always been love, even before He created the first human beings. He has always sought to have a close relationship with them because they were made for this love. The entire story of humanity is wrapped up within it. Love is ...read more

    God never promised us a rose garden nor will all of our days be filled with sunshine, there’ll be a little rain sometimes. But nonetheless God has prepared the path and left us a map and instructions as to how to run, walk or stand as we proceed on our journey.

    Intro: I pray that today’s message will be ammunition to help you gain the advantage of the battle in life which we all will have to combat someday. Signs of that day may appear all around us. We may hear warnings from the pulpit or when we read God’s Word, or it may come as a complete surprise. ...read more

    A message that highlights how God will replace the rulers of the nations with the Church.

    The elections are now behind us and we do have a new president. The slogan right now appears to be “Change is Coming.” Many of us are hoping that the change will be for the positive. Yet I’m sure others are hoping that not too much change will come! Take for instance the former ...read more

    As Jesus ministered in the region of Galilee, He did some things that some thought to be strange. As a result they glorified God!

    A few years ago, there was a series release on streaming services called “Stranger Things.” The series took place in a small town where strange events were happening - supernatural encounters, weird creatures, fissures into things that seemed like a mirror image of our world. It was truly filled ...read more

    Ordinary women who possessed a courage that was remarkable. In their actions they mirrored the very nature of God – God is the giver and sustainer of life.

    WOMEN WHO DID WHAT WAS RIGHT “But the midwives were God-fearing women: they disobeyed the command of the king of Egypt and let the boys live” (Exodus 1: 17).

     | 5,212 views

    Instead of praying that God would just wrap us all up in bubble wrap so we never feel any pain or have any problems, it might help us to look at the prayers that are prayed in the Bible. In Paul’s prayer for the Thessalonian Christians, we can learn a lot

    A Prayer Over You 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12 11 With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. 12 We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus ...read more
