    Haggai Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 22, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,531 views

    The Lord asks, "Is it a time for you to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house (the Temple) lies in ruins?" – Haggai 1:4. This is one of the most piercing questions in all scripture, especially given our wealth in this country.

    How can we keep the devil from creating chaos within the fellowship of God's people?

    In 2 Corinthians 4:4, the devil is referred to as the “god of this world” or “the god of this age.” And in John 12:31, he is called the “prince of this world.” In Ephesians 2:2, Paul calls the devil, “the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.” The Bible teaches us ...read more
