Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 31, 2025

I title this sermon “This Could Be the Year of The Lord’s Coming.” Please notice, I did not foolishly say “This would be the year the Lord is coming back for His church.” But I did say, This Could Be the Year of The Lord’s coming back for His Church.

Saved Through Persistence Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022

Jesus loves us so much that He pursues us, and pleads with us to enter the kingdom and seek salvation. He knocks on the door to our heart. Jesus may knock on our heart’s door, but we need to be knocking on heaven’s gates!

Well, it seems that this man, who had been demon possessed was ...read more
