    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Aug 4, 2024
     | 2,257 views

    Jesus said that our love for other believers would be a testimony to the gospel. But sometimes, it's hard to tolerate, much less love, our fellow Christians. In his letter to the Colossians, Paul tells us how to do it.

    As I look around the room this morning, I see a lot of white and gray hair. That’s nothing to be ashamed of; in fact, Proverbs 16:31 tells us that “Gray hair is a crown of glory”. A “crown of glory”. I like that. My problem is that my crown gets a little smaller every year. By the way, I tried to ...read more

    Good morning, beloved family. Today, I want to ask a simple question for us to consider: How do we cultivate a faith that is not only steadfast but also fruitful?

    Christianity is about the death of Jesus Christ. Jesus died voluntarily and was placed in a borrowed tomb.

    A. INTRODUCTION 1. Christianity is about the death of Jesus Christ. The birth of every child implies an inevitable death, i.e., “We are all born to die.” 2.

    Spiritual Gifts And Christian Maturity

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jun 5, 2025
     | 502 views

    Spiritual gifts are powerful expressions of God’s grace, meant to equip the Church for its divine assignment. But gifts alone are not enough. Without maturity, they can become tools of pride, division, or confusion.

    The feasts reveal God’s salvation plan, prefiguring Christ’s redemptive work from sacrifice to resurrection, judgment, cleansing, and final restoration in God’s eternal kingdom.

    An Examination of Typology, Covenant, and Christological Fulfillment Introduction Few subjects within biblical theology reveal the unity of Scripture as beautifully as the Old Testament feasts.
