    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jul 24, 2017
     | 4,517 views

    Fasting has been misused by mystics and sometimes remained a mystery to many committed Christians. Although opinions are mixed on the issue, I believe we can carve out a Biblical position that, while perhaps incomplete, will lay a good foundation.

    Biblical Fasting (Matthew 9: 14-15) 1. This is perhaps the most awful pun you will hear. 2. Mahatma Gandhi went around barefoot quite often, and eventually his soles turned very tough and thick. Of course he also was a devout Hindu. Later in life he also fasted a lot, becoming thin and ...read more

    Twenty-something years ago, I was at a weekend meeting a few miles out of Taupo.

I soon found a ...read more

    The Great Commission Convolution Of Same Sex Marriage

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Feb 22, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,787 views

    Does the Bible teach that the only way it can help all people face tomorrow in the power of God’s love is by becoming a diverse and inclusive congregation – multiracial, multigenerational and multicultural – offering a warm, non-threatening environment to all?

    The enemy has been very successful seducing churches to choose a different path to fulfill the Great Commission by becoming “Open and Affirming / Welcoming” rather than becoming places of supernatural transformation. Many churches see themselves as a place that, no matter where one is on their ...read more

    Let No-One Put Asunder

    Contributed by Michael Bates on Sep 5, 2023
     | 1,696 views

    Christian marriage is sacred. This short sermon describes what the biblical definition of marriage is and what the biblical grounds for divorce are. God hates divorce so therefore divorce should only be the very last option in any marriage.

    You probably already know what this mini-sermon is about before I even finish this first sentence. Well, you are right, it's about marriage. Now in this message, I’m talking about the biblical definition and Christian view of marriage, not the secular view and what today’s society wants ...read more
