Live As Children Of Light

Contributed by Mathew Philip on Mar 27, 2023

Light is just as necessary in our spiritual life as it is in our physical life. In the spiritual realm, darkness means whatever is contrary to the God.

If Christians are called to go to war against the gates of Hell, what role does "going to church" play in the conflict?

The Great Apostasy Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 8, 2023

Before we talk about the Rapture, we need to look at something called “The Great Apostacy.” In Hebrews 10:23-25, we read, “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who ...read more
