Contributed by Dan Lirette on Feb 3, 2012

Dan Lirette of Moncton, NB, and Pastor of Revival House Fellowship, takes on the issue of whether water baptism is pre-salvation or post-salvation.

Right Posture To Hear From God

Contributed by Samuel M on Apr 5, 2025

In God’s tabernacle or house, the Lord speaks with a loud voice rather than a small still voice and it is similar to the shepherd’s voice. If you want to hear the Lord speak loudly, come to God's house. This voice is so loud that it can awaken you from you spiritual sleep, famine, or dryness.

And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. So he arose and went to Eli, and said, “Here I am, for you did call me.” Then Eli perceived that the LORD had called the boy. 9 Therefore Eli said to Samuel, “Go, lie down; and it shall be, if He calls you, that you must say, ‘Speak, LORD, for Your ...read more
