    There is a cost involved in everything we do. It even cost us something to follow Jesus and yes, there is a cost even for The Cross

He was passionate, excited, and couldn’t wait to get out there and fight fires. But during a live burn drill, the flames got hotter than he expected, the smoke ...read more

    We need to get back to the basics of our faith and talk about the way of the Cross. I saw myself with a laminated Cross in front of me. We need to pick up our cross and follow Jesus.

    The Way Of The Cross 1 Corinthians 1:18-19 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

    David got his wires crossed. When it came to taking a census, was it a holy spirit or an unholy spirit that “moved” David? Either way, David took responsibility. Four (4) ways to ‘test the spirits”.

    READ FROM - 2 Sam 24:1-10 & 1 Chronicles 21:1-8 I. BOTH TEXTS THE SAME, EXCEPT FOR WHO MOVED DAVID TO TAKE THE CENSUS A. Is It God Who Moved David?

    Purity By The Cross Series

     | 2,264 views

    How do we get pure? How can we relate to God? We find out in Hebrews 9:14. That purity comes by the cross. Nothing can compare to the power of Christ in cleaning up a life.

    God is pure. He is like the snow on the top of the Himalayan mountains. We are un-pure. We are like the mud puddle on the road. You can’t mix the two together. The mud puddle water will contaminate the Himalayan snow. Then how do we get pure? How can we relate to God? We find out in Hebrews 9:14. ...read more

    As we consider Thanksgiving, we should be mindful of the many blessings we have in Christ. While these are too numerous to name, every believer should be thankful for the cross!
