God's Time

Contributed by Dwayne Brown, Phd on Dec 31, 2005

Watch Night

New Year’s Eve has a different kind of feel to it than other times that we celebrate during the year.

Almighty God Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Feb 24, 2015

It is not God's nature to be limited or weak. In removing all limitations of power, we arrive at the omnipotence of God, and we have access to that power to live effectively in an unholy world.

In Handel’s Messiah, the famous “Hallelujah Chorus” quotes the Book of Revelation, proclaiming: “For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth!” (19:6). Omnipotence means “able to do all.” God is all-powerful; He is unlimited. He can do all that He wills to do. ...read more
