    based on 37 ratings
     | 5,164 views

    This is a Scriptural examination of the gift of tongues. The Word of God defines the gift as well as describes its purpose, proper usage and active duration within the Church.

    Of all the miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit, none has provoked more interest and fascination than that of the gift of tongues. This is not only true of the last one hundred years, with the advent of Pentecostalism and the Charismatic Movement, but even in the 1st Century as is evidenced by the ...read more

    The pharisees and the teachers of the law had a warped view of God... and many today have the same problem. What did Jesus mean to teach about the Father in this parable?

    OPEN: (It is best to memorize the following illustration to allow for optimum delivery) “Feeling footloose and frisky, a featherbrained fellow forced his fond father to fork over the farthings and flew far to foreign fields and frittered his fortune, feasting fabulously with faithless friends. ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 10,896 views

    It’s easy to adopt our society’s methods of security. Making comparisons, money and wealth, Military might. It’s much harder to acknowledge God’s role in providing freedom from anxiety and fear.
