    Two lessons appear within letters to the Churches of Revelation (Asia Minor) to teach us valuable truths to strengthen our faith and resolve to holiness.

    THE BOOK OF REVELATION CONTAINS AN UNMISTAKABLE AND CLEAR MESSAGE TO EACH OF THE SEVEN CHURCHES. THE LETTERS CONTAIN A MIXTURE OF CRITIQUE, COMMENDATION, CRITICISM, EXHORTATION, AND CALLS TO REPENT AND CHANGE.

    The Bible tells us that there will be a time when some will "depart" from the "faith"

    Whenever there is a cataclysmic event, like a global pandemic, fires, floods, earthquakes, etc., etc., etc., the cry goes out that it may be the end of days and you need to get your act together so you don't miss the 'Rapture,' or take the mark of the Beast (Revelation 16:2; 19:20), ...read more

    Jesus warned His disciples that they would be hated by the world. Why? And how do we respond?

    WHAT DOES THE WORLD THINK OF JESUS? It hates Him. - John 15:18, 21, 22, 23, 24. 1. It’s easy to think of Jesus as a Mr. Rogers’ kind of guy and not think about the fact that they killed Him. He was not eminently likeable. - He called His enemies “vipers” and the “blind leading the blind.” - ...read more

    Genuine followers of Christ abide in Him, abound in love, and advance with power.

    Greg Laurie tells a story about a woman, who had finished shopping and returned to her car. She found four men inside the car. She dropped her shopping bags, drew a handgun, and screamed, “I have a gun, and I know how to use it! Get out of the car.” Those men did not wait for a second invitation; ...read more

    How are we to relate to the world around us? How will the world relate to us? All of these are critical truths Jesus wants His disciples to understand.

    I was listening to radio one afternoon recently when I heard story of a young woman in Albania who had come to faith in Christ and was a joyful, radiant Christian, witnessing to her friends about what she had found in Jesus. Then I listened with great sadness & shock to hear that this vibrant ...read more

    Living In The Fall Of Man: On A Lonely Christian Walk

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 30, 2021
     | 1,069 views

    Are you feeling caught between worlds? Are you feeling troubled by an emotion you can't quite name? Are you desperately lonely? Cut off? Perplexed? Amazed?

    "The loneliness of the Christian results from his walk with God in an ungodly world, a walk that must often take him away from the fellowship of good Christians as well as from that of the unregenerate world. His God-given instincts cry out for companionship with others of his kind, others ...read more

    Our Fourfold Union With Christ

     | 3,967 views

    To me, John 15, is one of the richest chapters in the Bible. It seems like you can study and study it and never get out all there is there to have. It shows what is my possession in Christ. What is my responsibility in Him? What is His responsibility to me?

    Notice there is four names that He gives to us that follow Him. 1. Ye are the branches, verse 5 2. Ye are my friends, verse 14 3. Ye are my servants, verse 20 4. Ye are my witnesses, verse 27 So, in John 15, we have four titles, four descriptions of us who follow Christ. We are branches, we are ...read more

    "hate Speech" According To Jesus: A Refresher Course

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 5, 2022
     | 1,773 views

    The Lord Jesus warned His disciples that they would be hated for telling the truth about sin, spiritual death, and the need for redemption found only in Him (John 14:6; Acts 4:12). This message is still hated by the world today. Some things never change.

    I want to begin with defining a term describing the attempts of Christians who, no matter how well-meaning their intentions, somehow believe that they can make friends with a worldview that hates them no matter what they do, say, or imitate. They bend over backwards trying to "fit in" ...read more

    They hated Me without cause.

    THE COST OF MISSION. John 15:18-25. Jesus was preparing His disciples for the work of world mission. He warned them that they would face opposition, even as He first faced opposition ahead of them. In effect, “If the world hates you, remember that it hated Me before you” (John 15:18).
