Five Plus Two Does Not Equal Seven, Revised 2014

Contributed by Craig Condon on Nov 13, 2015

But following Jesus is a radical lifestyle, and Jesus asks us if we are willing to do the same. Are we willing to give up some of what we have, that others might not go hungry? Are we willing to give out of what God has given to us?

Have you ever heard of the saying, “Every dark cloud has a silver lining”? If so, then the story of the loaves and fishes is a good example. Let me explain. This story happens just after the death of John the Baptist. When Jesus heard that his cousin was beheaded, he did what most of ...read more

What Is Your Calling? (Part 8) Series

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 10, 2016

Do we continue in a lifestyle if sin? Is our life filled with any form of violence? Do we yearn and live our life based on corrupted wisdom? What sort of worship we bring before God? Is pride evident in our lives?

As soon as pride and corrupted wisdom entered his heart, God eliminated him from ministry and his calling was stunted. Introduction: The devil was at one time a righteous angel! Therefore, he, too, is a ...read more

All of this folly just added to the darkness of ...read more
