    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,110 views

    During the time that Jesus walked the earth, people placed angels in high position relative to the Lord. With Jesus Christ now being preached as the sole way to heaven, the author of Hebrews had to convince the people that Christ was superior.

    Christ is Superior to the Angels Hebrews 1:4-14 Intro In this text we are going to be dealing with the meat of the Word, rather then the milk. Keep in mind that the book of Hebrews is written to both believing and non-believing Hebrews. Both groups are being pressed with the truth that the New ...read more

    How does Jesus measure up against the ’spirit guides’ of the New Age?

    The Gnostics of the first century were no different than those of similar beliefs throughout history; including today. The names get changed, but the belief system remains basically the same, because the same demons are being worshipped and the same falsehoods are being perpetrated by the same ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 17,382 views

    The LORD does not like to share his position as God with other wannabes. So he declares his uniqueness as the only God to his people and warns them not to imagine him in any other way.

    HAVE WE MADE GOD IN OUR IMAGE? Few things in life make a father prouder than when his son resembles him. There is a feeling of connection and ownership when others see your expressions and physical features in your son’s face. Sometimes the son isn’t so excited to resemble “Dad” but I think ol’ ...read more

    Jesus’ authoritative word brings transformation, silences evil, and calls us from passive belief to active, obedient faith that surrenders fully to Him.

    Friends, welcome. Some of us arrive carrying questions that kept us awake last night, some with a quiet ache we can’t quite name. Hear this hope: when Jesus speaks, storms settle, souls steady, and rooms grow still. There’s a holy hush that falls wherever He’s taken seriously. His words are not ...read more
