The Great Centurion’s Faith Series

Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on May 30, 2013

You don’t need great learning to have a Godlike Faith as the Centurion of Luke 7 proves

Why All The Hate Among Ourselves? Why The Disunity And Lack Of Support For Each Other?

Contributed by Dove Inspirations on Jul 3, 2024

The sign that we have to show that we are Christians is love. If we love one another, then the world will know that we are Christians. It is shocking to see the disunity among ourselves. The hate we display to one another even as unbelievers watch and wonder.

Many Christians are disturbed by the hate that is being witnessed against people who publicly declare their faith in JESUS CHRIST. In fact JESUS HIMSELF told us that as things escalate one of the signs of the end times is that we will be handed over for death by even our own relatives. Truly, ...read more

Focusing On The Future Series

Contributed by Brian Bill on Jul 9, 2004

want us to look at three primary passages this morning. These three texts, taken together, form a composite picture of the Ascension.

The cue for the guys pulling the rope was when he said, “And ...read more
