    Where Are The Dinosaurs? Series

What about dinosaurs, dating back millions of years ago if the Bible says the earth is only about 6-8 thousand years old? For the Christian who hates being ...read more

If you were honest with yourself, you will come to the realization that yes there has been times when I questioned my walk with God. Even John the Baptist the forerunner of the ...read more

    Signs of CHRIST return are everywhere. What kind of an effect are these signs having on you? Do they concern you? Do they move you to take care of some last minute details?

    Jesus did many miracles but only 2 are told about in all four Gospels. One is the miracle of Jesus' resurrection... and the other is the miracle of the feeding of the 5000. The question is "Why are these 2 the only miracles listed that in all 4?"
