     | 1,999 views

    I have heard many times recently through the media and social media that EVIL HAS PREVAILED. This is a terrible distortion that is breeding fear, worrying chaos, panic and commotion. God's truth will always prevail. God says: HAVE CONFIDENCE AND TRUST MY WORD.

    God seems to love the "Quiet Game" and seems to be the world's most skilled player. How can you hear Him when He seems to be so quiet?

    Quiet Games Pt. 1 - The Silent Treatment I. Introduction It is a scam. A ploy. I am convinced it is nothing more than a well disguised trick to get a momentary respite and break from the barrage of sound that emanates from a classroom full of rowdy 2nd graders.

    (“And Can it Be?” – C. Wesley) “Now when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, ‘Brethren, what shall we do?’ And Peter said to them, ‘Repent, and let each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; ...read more

    Sometime change in our, and our churches, Christian perspective is so slow that we fail to recognize what is happening. It is like the drip-by-drip change, which Nazi ideology brought to Germany.

    Countering Drip-by-Drip Change... Illustration We need to take the time to question how the German people could have allowed Nazi fanatics to turn their country into a Satanic tool that killed Jews by the millions? While it is true that early on some Germans openly adopted pagan and irreligious ...read more

    Sometimes it seems that the time it takes to get our prayers answered is much longer than we anticipated. So we begin to faint in our minds. This message is about not giving up when you are not seeing the results.

    Whose Side Are You On?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 5, 2024
     | 2,597 views

    Just like that camp, the world is filled with compromise and sin. God calls some to be the voice of separation and purification. Some of you may be called to be a Moses in your generation. His name means "drawn out" -- not just out of water, but out of the world!

    WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON? Ex. 32:1-28 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Hearing What You Want to 1. A young man went up to an old man and said in his ear, “Hey, could you lend me $5.00?” 2.

    The side of God that many ignore or pretend not to know.

    Turn up the Heat I was thinking the other day about the way people think of God and I received a message which is quite strong.
