    Part two in a study of Bible Prophecy and the End times dealing with the signs of Jesus imminent return.

    Ever since Jesus Christ warned His followers that He would leave them to go to His Father’s house in heaven and promised that He would “come again and receive [them] to [Himself]” (John 14:1-3), Christians have asked the million dollar question: “When will you return, and what will the sign of your ...read more

    Whose Image?

    Contributed by William Mouser on Oct 25, 2005
    based on 41 ratings
     | 13,579 views

    Giving to God what is His requires we recognize what bears His image and, thus, a duty toward Him.

    Whose Image? Matt 22:15-22 The gospel for today has a saying of Jesus that is probably better known than anything else he ever said, with the possible exception of his words to Nicodemus about being born again. The odd thing about Jesus’ words in today’s gospel is this: were not answering the ...read more

That afternoon she ran through the house singing and dancing. Her sour grandfather rebuked her with these words, “You ought to be ashamed of ...read more

    Future Plans Series

    Contributed by John Telgren on Jan 8, 2006
    based on 28 ratings
     | 13,779 views

    What we can learn from Paul’s future plans as he lays them out in Romans is what the nature of our focus should be. Our three-fold focus should involve our mission to save the loss, our devoted fellowship with each other, and prayer, which is a reflection

    Introduction: Have you every noticed how things get so hectic as we approach the holiday season?

    Getting On God's Agenda

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 16, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,967 views

    God’s agenda is to give freedom to the oppressed, and He will not be stopped. But our disobedience can frustrate Him. The church needs to get on God’s agenda quickly.

    A little book called “Kids’ Letters to Pastors” provides some fertile ground this morning for us to begin thinking about getting on God’s agenda. You see, you and I know the words we are supposed to say, whether we mean them or not. But kids say what they think, without editing. And so I suspect ...read more
