    Why are God’s people often not living counter-culturally or don’t seem to clash with culture? Maybe the problem has something to do with being intellectually or scientifically stimulated about Jesus and the mysterious cosmic phenomenon rather than experie

    I read a fascinating article last week that invited me to watch a breath-taking phenomenon that only occurs once every 44 years. It is the aligning of Jupiter and Venus with the Moon.

    The Promotion

    The pecking order, as we know it, is going to change. There is going to be a God factor in the church world that we have never seen before. God, who looks at the heart, is going to jump some of you over others because you are keeping His commandments.

    The Promotion Psalm 75:1-10 1 Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare. 2 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly. 3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars ...read more

     | 2,839 views

    We hear the word "repent" or "repentance" many times through scripture. But what does it really mean? Translated from the Hebrew word Teshuvah, we can dig deeper by understanding the root meaning of this Hebrew word.

    2021.09.14 REPENT/REPENTANCE Defined. Thoughts during the Feast of Trumpets, Rosh Hashanah, the Days of Awe, and Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. William Akehurst HSWC TESHUVAH – REPENTANCE – RETURN At the beginning of HIS Ministry, JESUS said, “Repent for the Kingdom is at hand”. Matthew 4:17; ...read more

     | 3,659 views

    Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind.

    This sermon series looks at Romans 14. This opening sermon examines the big picture of how Christians should handle these issue we disagree on.

    A FACT OF LIFE: There are going to be disputable matters Christians disagree on. - Romans 14:1b, 2, 5a. - Verse 1b introduces the term “disputable matters.” Now Paul has a lot to say about this and we are going to unpack this chapter over the next five weeks and detail the major points he makes. ...read more

    A sermon that seeks to answer the question: What does it mean to be righteous in the eyes of God?

    “What is Righteousness?” Matthew 1:18-25 What is the first image that pops into your head when you hear the word “righteous?” Do you think of some fire and brimstone preacher with a red face who points a finger at sinners and declares them guilty in the eyes of an angry god?

    The Ebionites existed during the early centuries of the Common Era and believed Jesus became the Messiah because he obeyed the Jewish Law.

    The Ebionites The Ebionites were early followers of Jesus who believed He was the Messiah the Jewish people had expected to come. Ebionites (Greek: Ebionaioi, derived from a Hebrew word meaning 'the poor' or 'poor ones') as a term refers to a Jewish Christian sect who were ...read more

    John's World

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Jun 15, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,357 views

    Was John only the apostle of love, or also the prophet of judgment? Was he "free will" as in John 3:16, or "predestination" as in John 6:37. To ask these things about him is really to ask them about the One he quoted. Jesus does not fit into our boxes...

    John’s World… Did John contradict John in regards to the doctrines of grace? Whose side was he on, after all? It wasn’t just Paul! There’s a real opposition in the evangelical church to what they call “Calvinism”, but what Spurgeon called “Bible.” ...read more

    The Gog/Magog Prophecy Revealed

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 14, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,663 views

    Who is this Gog and Magog Ezekiel tells us about? And when will they invade Israel? The answer lies in Scripture. But we must be careful not to assume anything by our own understanding. We need God to show us the truth of this prophecy. Which I believe He has done today.

    Ever since Russia made its invasion of the Ukraine, pastors, preachers and evangelists all over the world have been quick to get on their proverbial "soap box" and claim that this is the fulfillment of the prophecy found in Ezekiel 38. And for a time, I also believed this was the prophecy ...read more
