    Salvation hope: comfort from God.

    WAITING FOR THE NEWS. Isaiah 52:7-10. We live in an age when people love to hear news. Perhaps it gives us a sense of community in this rapidly shrinking ‘global village’.

It's like He's the ultimate best friend who's always there to listen, even when it's 3 am. Imagine your feelings ...read more

    The believers were instructed to wait in Jerusalem. They were not ready, but why not? They were absolutely convinced of the resurrection, but still not ready to launch out and take the Gospel to a lost and dying world. Wait for the power of the Holy Spirit.

    We gain a lot by studying the book of Acts. We learn about how the church grew in its infancy stage. Now over twenty percent of the world’s population claim to be true disciples of Jesus. But we are starting here with one hundred and twenty loyal believers huddled together in one room. It helps us ...read more
