Contributed by Joe Rowland on May 2, 2008

God showed me in a dream that even when I fill like I am on a ledge and I fill like I’m about ready to fall that Jesus is on that ledge with me. His hand is outstretched to help me no matter what I am going through.

Jesus As He Now Is: The Glorified Christ Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 15, 2010

When we talk about Christ being exalted at the Father's right hand, most of us have a pretty feeble picture in our minds; yet we do not serve a tired and shy Messiah who is but a man; we serve the Son of Man Who is the Son of God.

Jesus As He NOW Is: The Glorified Christ (Revelation 1:12-16) 1. What is your Jesus like? 2. Weak Jesus or strong Jesus? Is He kind or nice, or both? Does He get angry? Is He a victim to our choices? Is He both man and God, or something less? 3. If you saw His face as it now is, would you ...read more

A Plea For Action Series

Contributed by Joseph Marshall on Oct 9, 2022

his Psalm is a prayer in which God’s inaction confounds the Psalmist against the wicked. Therefore, he beseeches God to Arise (v. 12) and lifts up his hand. Hence we could call this psalm A Plea For Action. There are many lessons to be learned from it:

I. WHEN GOD SEEMS FAR AWAY (v. 1) A. There are times in the life of the godliest Christians during which God seems afar off and as if He is hiding. 1. A Christian should not doubt his salvation b/c he goes through such times. 2. This will be distressing for Christians. It is not troubling that we ...read more

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 10, 2022

God's Word is absolute. The Word of God is final. And His Word is binding, and it is truth! There is a reckoning at hand. It's the reckoning of God. And it is a reckoning of the sinful ways of this world and how we have literally pushed God out of our lives and our countries.
