     | 10,913 views

    I remember sitting, my face wet with tears, as I prayed for God to rescue me and change the soil of my heart into rich, fertile soil. I was tired of just pretending to be a Christian. I no longer wanted to be the person I had become. I surrendered my life to Jesus... and I was forever changed!

It was April of 1993 when I heard someone preach on the “Parable of the Sower” from Matthew 13. We had just survived a very serious car ...read more

    Ba Christian Vs Cultural Christian

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 8, 2012

     | 8,771 views

    Cultural Christianity means to pursue the God we want instead of the God who is. It is the tendency to be shallow in our understanding of God, wanting Him to be more of a gentle grandfather type who pampers us and lets us have our own way. It is sensing a

     | 2,998 views

    To show that GOD never intended us to be cursed that's why He sacrificed the ground on our behalf and now advises us to eat plant, grass or herb as our food.

    I. EXORDIUM: Are you cursed? No, but the ground is, so the plant that I eat will be blessed if I pray for it with thanksgiving in my heart. 1 Timothy 4:4-5 (Amplified Bible) For everything God has created is good, and nothing is to be thrown away or refused if it is received with thanksgiving. ...read more

     | 6,955 views

    In Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, He says that we need to be more righteous than the Pharisees and the Scribes in order for us to enter the Kingdom. These were the people who were perceived to have been the most righteous. How can we compete with them?

We looked at the character and the blessedness of the citizens of heaven - The beatitudes. We looked at us needing to be the salt and the light of ...read more
