Fill Your Horn With Oil & Go!

Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 3, 2018

Can You Live However You Want, And Still End Up With Jesus? (Revelation 14:6-20) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 13, 2023

Ch. 14 gives three pictures, rooted in OT thought, of what God's wrath is like. All are (arguably) symbolic, but all are something to be avoided. An encouragement to be faithful, and endure suffering.

Can you live however you want, once saved? (Revelation 14:1-20) One of the main themes in the book of Revelation that we've seen, especially in the last few weeks, is that the church will suffer on earth. Revelation has described this suffering using a number of different images, and symbols. ...read more

Go! And Embrace The Power Of The Cross - 1 Corinthians 1:18 Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Apr 17, 2025

A simple yet profound truth: there is power in the cross of Christ. To the unbelieving world, the cross is a symbol of weakness and defeat. But to those of us who are being saved, the cross is not a relic of shame—it is the power of God!

Go! And Embrace the Power of the Cross - 1 Corinthians 1:18 1 Corinthians 1:18 (NLT): “The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction!

Three Crosses

Often romanticized, bejeweled, and loved as beautiful – but symbol of the cross was nothing of the sort when Jesus met it two thousand years ago. It was the most hideous, damnable, obscene instrument of death one could imagine.
