     | 6,104 views

    False ideas about angels which have been popularized by the New Age and other "spiritual" movements have actually infiltrated the church. This is a glimpse into a Biblical view of angels, the servants of God.

    Please open your Bibles to Mark 1:9-13 which we will read in a few minutes. Last week we used this same passage as a springboard to take a look at who this Jesus really is and His relationship within the Trinity.

We want to make all possible efforts to make things as perfect as possible. We buy the perfect clothes, we look for the perfect gifts for ...read more

    Paul is helping us understand how our thought process can dominate our actions and how to address recurring idle thoughts.

    Matthew 22:1-14 What are you looking at? Where do you return when your mind is not occupied by some current demand? Our thought process is dominated, isn’t it? We tend to think about a pet project, a pet peeve, a lingering hurt, some secret desire that we keep coming back to (even though we ...read more

    The numbers we see at meetings or win for Jesus does not determine our performance in the Kingdom. Jesus decides and uses us to execute. So whatever we do is according to His will

    What kind of room in heaven do you desire? By our earthly life, we train our souls to receive and accept God and this has eternal import.

    “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” (Mk. 17:17). There are two alternates to eternal life: eternal death and temporal life. Neither is appealing. Eternal life is worth struggling for. The rich young man asked the Lord what must he do. He understood that attainment of heaven was ...read more

    Nicodemus comes to Jesus at night. He discovers that his broken religious system cannot save him. Jesus tells him he must be born again (born from above - born by God). He explains to him to Look to Jesus and Live!
