    In John's description of heaven, he saw the river of life, and on either side of the river was the tree of life, and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. Healing in heaven? From what? Illness? Injuries? And nations in heaven?

    LEAVES FOR HEALING I. Afterlife – almost universally believed in Belief in the afterlife is common to practically all peoples of the earth. • Some American Indians called it the “happy hunting ground” • Ancient Judaism accepted the idea of life beyond physical death, but with little grasp of what ...read more

     | 18,765 views

    The disciples learned much about themselves and the Lord as they encountered a storm on the Sea of Galilee. Is it possible this storm was experienced for their benefit? I think so, and our storms can be opportunities for growth.

    The Master of the Storm Mark 4: 35-41 Our text today reveals the end of a long day of teaching for our Lord. The evening had come, and night was soon approaching. While the disciples may have been unaware, Jesus had made the decision to journey to the other side of the Sea of Galilee that night. ...read more

    A first person lesson on gratitude from the perspective of a former leper.

    I want to tell you about my encounter with Yeshua (you call him Jesus) I will never be the same after meeting him, although I do have some regrets. You see, I was a leper in Israel, one of a small group of ten. Being a leper is a hard life. If you have unusual spots on your body you must go to the ...read more

     | 5,560 views

    No one pays that much attention to the wrapping. It’s what is inside that counts . . . right? Maybe this Christmas we should stop and consider how the gift was wrapped.

    Wrapped Pt. 2 - In Humility I. Introduction There is usually very little attention paid to the wrappings. Even if great time and effort is made to make sure each corner is tucked and folded perfectly. Even if the bow is picked to match exactly. Even if every seam is exact.

    The Feast Of Tabernacles Series

     | 8,621 views

    Jesus is the Messiah, the promised one who would rule over an everlasting kingdom as God’s anointed king. We are called on to make a response to Jesus. Do we acclaim him as our king or reject him because he doesn’t meet our expectations?

    You probably won’t be surprised to discover that there’s a link between this chapter and the previous one. Last week we saw how some people find it hard to believe in Jesus, because faith is a spiritual activity and they’re basically materialists, or because they don’t ...read more

    Are We Real Christians Or Just Pretending To Be Christians?

    Contributed by David Leach on Jan 13, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,591 views

    Unfortunately the vast majority of those who profess Christianity are not in fact Christians but remain spiritually dead in their sins because they have not met Jesus’ one requirement to even see the Kingdom of Heaven, that is, they must be born again spiritually.

    Are we real Christians or just pretending to be Christians? Jer 3:10 …Judah (My own people) has not turned to Me with her whole heart, but in pretense, says the LORD. Sometimes we hear that there are living today about two billion people who are Christians. Unfortunately the vast majority ...read more

    God reveals Himself as the One true God who redeems Israel, warns them and finally judges them. Israel is called to worship the One and only God, and to show the nations that the Lord their God, the Lord is one. They failed.
