The Heavenly Hierarchy

Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 3, 2015

As the Son of God, Jesus is superior to the world, even though he was not fully revealed to man until his death, resurrection and ascension. Because he became human, he was our representative before God.

Search Me

Contributed by John Quigley on Feb 29, 2016

Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written: "FOR YOUR SAKE WE ARE KILLED ALL DAY ...read more

Good Friday 2014

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 24, 2014

This is a hybrid between a sermon, a remembrance of the night before Jesus died and a mini drama. It mostly consists of walking through the events of that day in order to never forget why Jesus said, "Do this in remembrance of Me."

(This is not a word-for-word manuscript except for the "readings". The pastor or leader is expected to elaborate on different points as the Lord moves him or her to do so. God bless you.)
