    The Last Days

    Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Jul 24, 2020
    based on 3 ratings
     | 39,433 views

    Only someone who is completely out of touch with reality would dispute the fact that we are living in the last days. The question is... What is the church going to look like in the last days? What can we expect to see through the church?

    The Holy Spirit witnesses to us concerning the last days, and he tells us what to expect. He tells us the attitude and the spirit that will prevail in the hearts of the wicked. (2 Timothy 3:1-5 ) KJV “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. [2] For men shall be ...read more

    Why we end our prayer by saying, "In Jesus' name, we pray, amen."?

    Funeral Message

    Had you gone to Jerusalem that day so long ago, and had you gone just outside the wall to the north, out through the Damascus gate, there you would have seen a rocky hill. And on that hill, you would have seen three crosses, with the men on those crosses.

    Today, we both celebrate and mourn the loss of our friend, Jim. A great father and husband as well as a pillar of our church for many years. I know of few places of greater comfort in a time of loss than Jesus on the cross. Let me show you why this. Today’s Scripture Two others, who were ...read more

    Our conscience is a God given gift, which is like an arbiter who is constantly evaluating all that we do, and instructing us as to what is right and what is wrong.

    Conscience Let us look again at Genesis 3:9, “But the LORD God called out to the man, "Where are you?" (GNB) Our God is omniscient, the one who is all knowing, which implies that He knows everything about the past, present and future. God is also the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning ...read more
