     | 514 views

    Favour is a supernatural advantage that causes a person to experience blessings beyond human effort. Solomon experienced God’s favour because he sought wisdom instead of riches, and God gave him both.

    based on 45 ratings
     | 7,283 views

    First of a series based on the Johannine letters: our response to overwhelming need is first of all a discovery of who we are; then a commitment to maximum effort; and finally a discovery of where our passion lies. This will energize us.

    I invite you today on an imaginary trip. Let’s walk through just one day in a needy world. Just imagine a few hours in a world that asks us for more than we can possibly give: You are awakened early by the phone’s insistent ringing; you hear the voice of a member of your family.

    It’s Hard to actually describe what Revival is. What’s easier is, what Revival is not! Let’s examine what hinders Revival from coming regardless of our efforts.

    Introduction There are very few who aren’t familar with II Chron. 7:14 "If my people..." This verse embodies what is usually thought of as the Principles and Promise of Revival. However, it isn’t the Principles or Promise of Revival that we should be concerned about as the Precursor. Like ...read more

    Exposing the popular and deadly "christianish" false gospel of justification by human effort. The man who has confidence on the day of judgment because he has been "doing right" is lost and remains under the wrath of God.
