    During this Christmas season, it makes sense that we should follow Mary’s prophetic declaration, “all generations will call me blessed”, by praying her prayer, the Magnificat, and asking God to give us the same spirit of obedience she had.

    December 22 The Magnificat Today's vesper antiphon speaks to Jesus as the "King of all the nations, the only joy of every human heart." One of the now "traditional" movies lots of people see each Christmas is one set in the middle of the last century. It's called ...read more

     | 3,832 views

    Considering ourselves as new creation in Christ is enough motivation to live differently. But there are other additional reasons, why we need to live holy and godly lives.

    “But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and ...read more

    A comparison of God’s Human Resources policy with that of worldly employers

    Our society is obsessed and fascinated by celebrities. People who are talented at singing or acting or sport. People who look good, who are impressive, who have a ‘presence’ about them.

    In Acts 5 are 3 attitudes about Jesus and the preaching of the cross. One is satanic & one SEEMS reasonable & sensible, but is really a product of human wisdom & leads to error. Only one is biblical & blessed by God. Part 1 deals with the first 2.

    Galatians is all about grace and is the antidote to legalism. For Paul, it was about Christ crucified and his becoming a slave to Christ and not the Law.

    APROVAL OF HUMAN BEINGS OR GOD Galatians 1 I once attended a worship event and before the speaker took the stage a choral group was singing. I was to lead a prayer before the speaker began, so I was silently worshipping and reflecting on my words for the prayer. As the choral group sang a very ...read more

    This message takes an honest and impartial look at what the Bible says about Tithing, what it was, its biblical history, and how and why it was implemented.

    “See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.” (Colossians 2:8 NIV) Too many Christians feel guilty and Tithe out of obligation rather than love. Some ...read more
