     | 8,844 views

    As followers of Jesus Christ, we’ve each been given authority, but like many Christians today, we don’t often use our authority as God intended.

    THE KEYS OF THE KINGDOM We all feel like a nobody sometimes. It’s like the new employee at a Wal-Mart Store who had such an experience. The young man had just been at work a few days and was the low man in the pecking order. He was holding a broom in his hand near the entrance when an irate ...read more

    He who began a good work in you, will be faithful to complete it. It may not look like it right now, But God is not moved by the way things look, in our lives, He is moved by our faith!

    When one runs aground on the Faith, injuring others within the flock, the appropriate response is to hand such individuals over to Satan.

    “This charge I entrust to you, Timothy, my child, in accordance with the prophecies previously made about you, that by them you may wage the good warfare, holding faith and a good conscience. By rejecting this, some have made shipwreck of their faith, among whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,064 views

    Jesus begins his ministry and immediately clashes with the understanding of the people and the forces of evil. Jesus confronts the status quo of our live seeking to free us from the chains that bind us and to enable us to experience true freedom.

    Following Jesus Without Denominationalism Series

    Contributed by Sam Baker on Mar 25, 2012
     | 2,756 views

    I want you all to know that the importance to all of this relates very closely to the subject of “Authority in Religion” . . . It is impossible to maintain unity unless we can agree upon a ‘standard’ of authority. Funny thing is . . .

    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,949 views

    What we need to realize in the church today is if we lose our arms then we will lose our strength. Christians are losing their arms because they are not using them the way they should.

    What kind of man is this who has the authority to cast out demons, make cripples walk and cleanse the Temple. They demanded a sign, he gave them one and they missed it.
