    Christ our Master has commanded us to baptise disciples rather than baptising rebels to make them disciples.

    “Jesus came and said to [the disciples], ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.

    John was writing to people who claimed to be Christians. John wanted his readers to know exactly what a Christian is.

    Today’s Message: Relationship Tested (1 John 2:3 NKJV) Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. (1 John 2:4 NKJV) He who says, "I know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. (1 John 2:5 NKJV) But whoever keeps His ...read more

     | 6,419 views

    Many Christians live unhappy, fruitless, worried and negative lives. But God’s plan is exactly opposite, He wants His children not just to achieve victory, but LIVE in it! Scripture provides 3 keys to winning in life.

    # 2 CLAIMING THE NAME There are unseen, evil forces that are constantly around us. And while they are unseen they are certainly not unreal. The devil, our own flesh and the world, are constantly trying to steal away any contentment there is. There's an orchestrated, a 6000 year-old conspiracy by ...read more

     | 10,171 views

    Many claim we are experiencing revival today, yet so much of the church seems to be in retreat. Where is the gut-wrenching repentance of former revivals? Where is the confession of sins by entire church populations? This all happened when revival came...

    The Judgment of God It is not a popular subject today.
