Dios quiere usarte, pero si no sabes que eres especial, si usted no sabe y actuas como si fueras diferente, ¿COMO PUEDE EL?

And He Yielded Up The Ghost

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 5, 2022

Today in America, we have many laws that are on the books, but they are never enforced.

God also has many laws but His laws are always enforced. For example, “Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap” is a law that almighty God put in place. It is not a law that is applied to some people; it is a law that applies to everyone. Jacob’s sons lived an ungodly life. • In Shechem, ...read more

Unclean Lips

Contributed by Samuel M on Sep 22, 2023

Prophet Isaiah cries - Woe is me, I am man of unclean lips. Unclean lips because he speaks Godly words, but they lack(don’t have) Jesus, i.e. they do not talk, describe, or present Jesus. They talk about God and His plans, but they rarely mention about Jesus in these plans.

“Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips” Isaiah 6:5 Prophet Isaiah cries - Woe is me, I am man of unclean lips. Unclean lips because he speaks Godly words, but they lack(don’t have) Jesus, i.e. they do not talk, describe, or present Jesus. They talk about God and His plans, ...read more

Life In The Spirit

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Jan 28, 2022

The Nicene Creed says, in reference to the Spirit, “We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life, who proceedeth from the Father and the Son." The early church recognized the truth that the Holy Spirit is One who gives life.

Spring Cleaning

Contributed by Thomas Bowen on Mar 23, 2009

Jesus does some cleaning out of the temple to clear out the things that restricted worship of God.

Spring Cleaning… John 2:13-19 It seems a little strange to me but, it appears to be something that many people have built into their DNA.

Do We Have A Clean House This Easter? Series

Contributed by Guy Glass on Mar 12, 2010

Jesus twice clean the temple. This message looks at "our house" and asks the question, "Is our house clean?" One interesting point is that the temple had become a den of thieves. Often our attitude robs ourselves or others from worship.

Just as Jesus breathed His last, the Bible tells us that curtain of the Temple was torn in two. Witnesses to the Temple tell us that this curtain was as thick as your hand. So the tearing of something so thick and so large was supernatural.
