Revelation Series

Contributed by Alan Mccann on Mar 1, 2016

The glory of the Word of God arches over all the universe

Revelation 10.1-11 As some of you may know I like Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit books. However, it is always a good to remember that you should never judge a book by its film.

And Jesus Said, "I Tell You The Truth”

Contributed by The Rev Deniray Mueller on May 4, 2020

we learn from Jesus the universal truth of love

Every time Jesus wanted us to listen to what He had to say, He would say “truly I tell you” or “verily I say unto you” or “I tell you the truth” All of Jesus’ parables use one of these phrases, as well as many of His teachings. He wants us to ‘get it’ - that what He was saying is ...read more

Medical Missions Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 27, 2021

People have to be saved before they can be saved. That is, they have to be delivered from temporal death in order to be delivered from eternal death.

Everyone of us lives with a doctor, and to make it even better the doctor we live with can write prescriptions and get the medicine delivered immediately. If you think you don't take drugs, it is only because you do not know what your doctor is doing. Your doctor is your brain. I have had ...read more

The Truth About Truth

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jul 26, 2012

It may take a crucified church to bring a crucified Christ before the eyes of the world. Christ’s cross makes foolish human wisdom. The cross insults our intelligence (too simple), ability (nothing to do), and ambition (not glory for self).

You Shall Not Murder Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 21, 2021

The Bible’s opening plotlines show the firstborn man, Cain, killing his brother Abel. Think of it: the firstborn person in the human race was a murderer.
