The False Prophet At Bethel Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Feb 14, 2025

Just because one claims to be an old prophet doesn't mean he's a true prophet. This message recounts what happened to a true prophet who listened to an old but false prophet. The true prophet paid dearly.

Sadly it was also a place where Jeroboam established a false religion, centering on the worship of a golden calf.

As It Is In Heaven

Contributed by Scott Sutton on Aug 14, 2022

Reading the Lord’s Prayer recently, I thought about something that it says in a way that I had never thought about before. It says in verse #10 “...Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.”

Then it occurred to me, if we are to do God's will on Earth then we must know what is going on in heaven first! Because that was how Jesus was teaching His disciples to pray. So that means we also need to know what is happening in Heaven and how God’s will is being accomplished. The first ...read more
