    Our Lord Jesus told us to "Speak to our Mountain!" Muslims once commanded Egyptian Christians to move a mountain with prayer or face death or conversion to Islam. The Christians prayed and God moved the Mountain! He'll do it for you!

    Contributed by Bruce Hadley on Oct 22, 2019
     | 7,889 views

    Doubt – What exactly is doubt? What does Jesus mean by telling us If ye have faith, and doubt not? James tells us that we ought to ask in faith, without doubting, For he that doubts is like a wave blowing with the wind. Is doubt unbelief? Do I not believe God because I have doubts?

    Matt. 21:18-22 Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he hungered. 19 And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever.

    We learned that doubt is a part of our human psyche, it’s human nature to doubt. Healthy skepticism and questioning is what keeps us from being easily misled, deceived, manipulated and led astray. Natural doubt many of times assists us to make rational judgments as to a matter or circumstance.

    This is one of those stories that we often skip over, but it's there for a reason, hopefully, this message sheds some light on that.

    To be completely honest, if I was writing the New Testament this is one story I probably would have skipped. And if you were completely honest you have probably been uncomfortable reading it. It just doesn't fit with our view of Jesus. We can understand when he goes ballistic and clears the ...read more
