    Spiritual maturity is a growth process, so we need to be willing to press on. Are you willing to press on? Are you willing to be single minded in becoming like Christ? You must press on in Christ.

    When we consider what Christ desires from us we feel uneasy. Our relationship with Him affects all our other relationships ... For some of us these demands may seem too hard to achieve. We are afraid of whole-hearted obedience to Christ will cost us.

McMillen, in his book None of These Diseases, tells a story of a young woman who wanted to go to college, but her heart sank when she read the question on the application blank that asked, "Are you a leader?"

    Introduction to the letter to the Ephesians. What does it mean if I say that if you’re a Christian you’re “in Christ”?

    I wonder how good your theology is. How well thought out are you? Have you worked out the answers to those difficult questions about God that arise from time to time? Or are you like me and are still thinking some things through? Of course those who are well educated theologically have probably ...read more

    In the last four sermons on eschatology, we have been having a shouting time talking about: • THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH, • SECOND COMING OF CHRIST • TWO SERMONS ON THE RECEIVING OF OUR GLORIFIED BODIES.

    But today we are going to be talking about something that is horrifying to even think about. We are going to be talking about TRIBULATION PERIOD in the book of Revelation. Most of the Book of Revelation deals with the subject of that period of time that is known as the “Tribulation Period”. ...read more
