THE SOLUTION FOR THE POLLUTION “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

    Law...then And Now

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Feb 2, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,478 views

    How do the complex, often strange laws of the OT apply to today? What is the function of the law of God? And what does it mean to live lawfully when salvation is by grace?

    What do we do with the Law? As we read the Law of Moses in the Old Testament, we come across some strange rules nearly no one practices today. A.J. Jacobs wrote an intriguing book, The Year of Living Biblically, a chronicle of his attempt to actually follow all the many laws of the Bible (easily ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,960 views

    It has been said that the eye is the closest to soul and is the agent used to judge right from wrong. So if the eye & heart are in conflict, how can the body function properly.

    “American Idol” Matthew 6:22-24 Theme; a picture of a Christian life in this world in the presence of God, actively submissive, and entirely dependent upon Him.

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Jan 19, 2019
     | 9,846 views

    Benefits Of Meditation

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jun 17, 2018
     | 4,778 views

    There is a link between mediation and attentional functions and cognitive flexibility instead of giving an automatic response. Often we best represent the presence of Christ not just in moments of scheduled ministry.

    16B In the Catholic Church, an officiating priest or deacon says, "The Lord be with you" and the congregation responds by saying, "And with thy spirit." However, an older, recently outdated, response from the congregation used to be, “And also with you". So there was a Catholic priest who always ...read more

    Certainly your function in a system (your job) is a part of who you are, but is it the essential or most important part? Paul defines us based on our relationship with Jesus.

    Colossians 2:9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, 10 and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority. 11 In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not performed by human hands. Your whole self ruled by the ...read more

    based on 65 ratings
     | 23,877 views

    The Gift Of Discerning Of Spirits Series

    based on 164 ratings
     | 38,744 views

    Discerning of spirits is such a vital gift to the body of Christ. The enemy has gotten away with a lot of demonic manifestations in our church services because the gift of discerning of spirits was not functioning in the leadership.

    By: Donna J. Kazenske 1 Cor. 12:7-10 "But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom, through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another the gift of faith by the same Spirit, to another ...read more
