    based on 8 ratings
     | 12,920 views

    Is it possible that an ancient Scripture holds a mystery that reveals America’s future? I believe the answer is “yes.” I believe that the mystery lies behind everything from 9/11, to the War on Terror, to the crash of Wall Street and the global economy,

    Zechariah #16: Superficial Religion Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jun 27, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,934 views

    This exposition of Zechariah 7:1-6 explores the issue of the inner motives behind our service to the Lord. How many people go to church, give their money, fast, etc. and are baffled by God's lack of response. Why is there so little power in the church? The text addresses all that.

    Intro Our text today is in Zechariah 7. Last week we examined the capstone of the eight visions.i The crowning of Joshua, the High Priest, was a symbolic act prophesying Messiah. Unlike any other, Messiah would be both priest and king. All the promises of God are yea and amen in Him.ii The eight ...read more

    Let us consider some Bible passages where the word “hate” is used in connection with God. But before we do that it would be beneficial for us to understand the Biblical meaning of the word hate and how God truly feels concerning this word “hate.”

    Jesus Is Baptised

    based on 18 ratings
     | 3,792 views

    This Jesus, who lowers himself to the depth of us failed human beings, is the Beloved Son of the Living God. His baptism, unnecessary as it was in terms of repentance from sin, nevertheless shows us the importance of submitting to God’s law, God’s will f

    I imagine many of you may be unaware that today is the day the church traditionally remembers the baptism of Jesus. So how appropriate that today we should be baptising Caleb.

    Unity, according to Jesus, is essential for the well-being and success of any institution. This is especially true of the family and the Church.

    Christ made a profound statement rgarding the importance of unity in MARK 3:24-25. Let us stop to examine the context of this statement. Jesus had just cast-out demons from a fellow. Rather than admit Jesus’ Divine power, the spiritually blind Pharisees were making the claim that Jesus expelled ...read more
