    Short, Sweet and Ignorant The Consequences of Not Wanting To Hear From God The Bible says, "Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. To draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they are doing evil." (Ecclesiastes 5:1) There is ...read more

    What Exactly Is A "Layman?"

     | 8,468 views

    The Church is very ineffective because it is Clergy Driven and not driven by ALL believers with a passion for souls!

    One problem I have found in the modern church is that we have made the church a CLERGY run entity. God meant the church to be driven by ALL of the saints. We are a body of BELIEVERS and BELIEVERS are supposed to CAST OUT DEVILS, PREACH THE GOSPEL, and LAY HANDS on the sick. (James 5:16 and Mark ...read more

     | 3,813 views

    Every denomination has its own take on sacrament, and some deny that there are any sacraments, even Baptism, that are normally required for salvation. But Scripture helps us solve the problem.
