Seeking Heaven

Contributed by Ian Johnson on May 11, 2005

God wants us to have an eternal view, A vision of Heaven, Satan on the other hand wants us to remain blind and uninformed. Because he knows that if we get a vision of Heaven and all its glory, we will be unstoppable in our quest to get all our friends and

1 Corinthians 2:9-16 That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.”* Most people leave this scripture right here but in fact we need to read down to the end of verse 16. 10 But we ...read more

Heaven Is A Marriage Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 24, 2013

Marriage is about the union of two hearts, and in Heaven it is the marriage of Christ and His Church. If we do not see ourselves connected/united to Christ in a covenantal relationship, we will fail to grasp the nature of life after death.

In Revelation 21, John the Apostle sees Heaven as “a bride dressed for her husband.” The Apostle Paul in Ephesians 5 compares the union of husband and wife to that of Christ and the church. We are the Bride of Christ. It’s been said, regarding Heaven, the Bible provides the ...read more

Treasure In Heaven Series

Contributed by Jim Keegan on Apr 26, 2021

Greed and generosity are opposing spiritual forces. Selfishness and greed have the effect of shriveling our souls by wasting our potential for love, whereas generosity becomes the source of God’s richest blessing and joy.

Good morning, church family! So glad to see you all here today. We're diving deep into Luke 16:8 today, to dissect the Parable of the Unrighteous Steward. You might be thinking, "What's up with that?

How New Is New?

Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 4, 2009

We live in a revolutionary time. Can we seize it for Christ. God is doing something new and is calling us to join Him in it, as walls and barriers come down.

If this winter is like most winters, you will wake up one morning, peer out your window, and find the whole scene blanketed in pure white snow. It will seem like a fairyland to you, and for a little while, at least, the whole world will appear to be new. Brand new, clean and fresh, sparkling and ...read more

Jesus attended the Sabbath service at his home synagogue in Nazareth, as he always did when he was home, and stood up when the time came for the Scripture. “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,” said Jesus, “because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor.

Gates Of Heaven

Roll Of Heaven

Ready For Heaven In 2007 In Valladolid, Spain, where Christopher Columbus died in 1506, stands a monument commemorating the great discoverer.

Heaven Is A Party Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 24, 2013

Heaven is party-central, and the party starts now, but doesn't get into full gear till we get to Heaven, or when Jesus returns--whichever comes first.

When Biblical writers speak of Heaven, they often use figurative language. I suspect the reason is that they’re trying to express heavenly realities with the limitations of human language. Trying to describe Heaven to us is like trying to describe this world to an unborn child. And so ...read more
