    Praise God, the church was bought with the precious blood of Jesus, so the gates of hell cannot prevail against the church of God. Believers were redeemed with this blood, and our sins are washed away by the blood. Praise God, we have victory by the blood of Jesus. Amen.

    Further to all the troubles, the elders no longer function with determining justice when they sat in the gate. Young men no longer play and enjoy music. The nation lost its joy. Israel has a rich legacy with Composers and Conductors and Performers. Joyful change at the Second Coming.

     | 128 views

    People are looking for peace, but the age old question is “where can it be found?” Would we like the Psalmist (Ps 24:7-10) open up our hearts and let the King of Glory come in?

    The week prior to Palm Sunday, Jesus and his disciples were traveling to Jericho on their way to Jerusalem for the Passover feast. Along the way, He was teaching, healing, seeking the lost - doing everything that pointed to Him as the Messiah. His disciples had the idea that He was going to ...read more

    Through prayer, God will open a window of opportunity for us to work past our stresses, our conflicted feelings, and even our sins and shortcomings.

    Life is tough. Am I going to get any argument about that? The philosopher Thomas Hobbes said that human life was solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short. Wow! Not the kind of stuff we expect on Sunday morning. Supposed to be all, “Praise the Lord”! But deep down, lots of people do ...read more
