Growth And Love

Contributed by Chidi Ejeagba on Jan 22, 2021

There is a very powerful relationship between growth and love. Without growth, it will be impossible to share love. A full grown love must be shared.

"he Ascended Into Heaven"

Contributed by Robert Walderman on Sep 21, 2020

Of all the aspects of Christ’s life, his birth, life, death and resurrection, the ascension gets little attention. This is unfortunate because it is something of the ‘Ticker-tape’ parade in God’s plan and yet few show up to applaud.

The Mount Of Olives – The Priority Of The Great Commission (12/12) Series

Contributed by Eduardo (Eddie) Fernandes on Oct 12, 2020

The urgent task and maximum priority of the Church is the fulfillment of our Lord’s final instruction. The Way of the Cross does not end at the crucifixion or with the resurrection. It ends 50 days after Passover with the Great Commission. We bleed evangelism.
