Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000

What is your response to the Potter today? Are you yielding all of your rights to Him so He can transform you according to His perfect plan, process and power?

Quote: Transformation is rooted in the Greek word, metamorphisis. A complete change from one form to another form happens when when a caterpillar turns in to a beautiful butterfly.

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jul 2, 2021

Application about Paul’s teaching about his thorn: He was active in interpreting his life experience to himself and others

Paul Powell said, “Troubles knock a lot of nonsense out of us.” Like Paul’s “thorn in the flesh” from our Second Reading taken from 2 Corinthians, chapter 12 , which he says was given to him by “an angel of Satan.” It was not a sin problem. e.g. Winne-the-Pooh comes downstairs, bump, bump, ...read more

Jesus Never Forgets Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Nov 29, 2019

Advent Week 1 - A Child Is Born A Son Is Given Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Dec 3, 2020

Recently I have been fascinated listening to the testimonies of Jews who have come to know Jesus as their Savior. Isaiah 9:6 speaks of Jesus but the Jews claim that it is about Hezekiah. Is there a connection between Isaiah 9 and the New Testament?

Builders Or Wreckers? Series

Contributed by Matthew Street on Oct 13, 2006

Are we like Paul and Barnabas builders in God’s Kingdom or are we more concerned about doing things in the way they have always been done with the result that we like the Jews miss the new things that God is doing and become wreckers rather than builders

Building something up is so much harder than tearing it down. We only need to think about the last time we had some redevelopment work done on our house to know that this is true. It takes no time to knock out those old windows or that old kitchen but it takes much longer to replace them. Gerald ...read more
