Are You Willing To Be Nobody

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jun 17, 2021

Everyone wants to win 3000 in a day and have the largest church in their country, but God has more nobodies than superstars.

There is an old country song that said, “I’m chasin’ the neon rainbow, livin’ the honky tonk dream.” Very few artists find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow making their dream come true. Few make it to the ranks of a one hit wonder. Many will quit and get a “real job” or continue to ...read more

Why Sunday?

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Apr 24, 2024

When you look at the letter of the Law, you demand one day only. When you look at the principle or purpose of the Law you see the grace that Paul spoke of and why Gentiles were not required to be under naught but the moral law.

Exodus 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. KJV The question is often asked why most Christians meet on Sunday instead of Saturday. Let's look first at the definition of the word in both Hebrew and Greek sincere will be looking at it it from the OT and NT sides. OT:7676 shabbath ...read more

Heaven Homecoming Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on May 15, 2006

If you’ve ever wondered what heaven is like, we get one of our most complete looks at it in the final chapters of Revelation. We’ll also see heaven and hell compared.

When you think of heaven, what comes to your mind? The stereotypical view is of white puffy clouds, with us dressed in white robes with wings, carrying harps and just lazing around all day with nothing to do. Is that heaven? No. Chapters 21 and 22 of Revelation give us about as much information as ...read more

Why Are We Divided? I do not know if there has ever been a time since the 1st Century when there has been so much talk about unifying the Church.

The End Is Drear

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Feb 13, 2012

Does your love need some gasoline?

I hear a lot of talk about revival. I know many pray for revival and that is definitely a good thing.
