The Call: Come By Pastor John Mateos Ong

Contributed by John Ong on Nov 15, 2017

God offers us a great banquet that sometimes we doubted for being too good to be true, but we can prove to ourselves that our Lord’s offer is far more than what we thought if we only surrender to him and accept His calling.

Many of us have been blinded by unnecessary things that life itself offers. Prestigious car, jewelry, and a feast of delicious food are just some of what we believe are the best things to receive and attain in our lives. And because of these unnecessary things that we tend to value, we have ignored ...read more

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Apr 30, 2020

We have studied the "Veneer of Excuses." Not let us consider that some of God's best students were experts at making the offering of excuses. We must overcome the weakness of excuses. We need to be honest, admit, confess and repent. Being good at excuses will hinder real growth.
