Reward For Being Obedient

Contributed by Rev. Felix Cornelius Agyei on Jun 10, 2023

God's promise of a new beginning are not in a vacuum. It does not just take God to make it possible. Abraham had a part to play. In the same way, the new life and restoration that Jesus brings demand our participation. What then is our participation? THIS IS OBEDIENCE.

The Cosmic War (Revelation 12)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 3, 2024

This chapter contains symbols describing the ongoing war between God Almighty and the devil, Satan. It also shows that the LORD has the final victory and that His people Israel will be saved as He promises throughout Scripture.

We see the pure malevolence and hatred both of God ...read more
