     | 2,385 views

    New research findings in Science and Medicine now support the Bible's statement that we have a soul, not just a body. People must know this so they can make correct decisions about where they will spend eternity.

    YOU HAVE A SOUL OPENING ILLUSTRATION Get 4 kids to front. Turn off lights. Shine flashlights thru hands. You can see the bones inside the skin. “WE HAVE SOMETHING INSIDE!” We know this also because of Xrays and ultrasounds.

    Este discurso atestigua la verdad de que cada uno de nosotros tiene un alma inmortal, habla de la importancia de reconocer que tenemos un alma inmortal y pregunta cómo sería la vida si la humanidad no tuviera alma.

    Génesis 1: 26-27 nos dice que somos creados a imagen de Dios. Con esto queremos decir que somos creados con un alma a través de la que Dios se comunica con nosotros. El lamentable estado de pecado en el que ha caído la humanidad amenaza con desafiar ese hecho. De hecho, el alma ...read more

     | 1,812 views

    Churches are expected to guide and form the conscience of society and people by pointing out the truth without fear or favour. Some of our churches today however, have lost their moral authority to the world because of power, fame, and money by their leaders.

Civil authorities and those in power now vote to decide what is sin and what is not sin, what is lawful and what is unlawful. And this has now crept into our Churches, but Church leaders ...read more
