Before It’s Too Late

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 19, 2018

As a spiritual people it is important for us to realize the spiritual signs of the times that we are living in. By the time that Jesus arrived the Jews fell into a kind of spiritual numbness that led to complacency. For them it was just another day.

Before it’s too Late Luke 12:54-59 54 He said to the crowd: “When you see a cloud rising in the west, immediately you say, ‘It’s going to rain,’ and it does. And when the south wind blows, you say, ‘It’s going to be hot,’ and it is. Hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the ...read more

Educational Evangelism Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 20, 2021

God Keeps His Promises Series

Contributed by Kamalanathan Francis on Dec 23, 2021

The Great Reversal Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 18, 2019

God did a great reversal. On an individual level, everything that Haman has and craved for, ended up with Mordecai. On a national level, the Jews were given the right to fight for their survival, against sure extermination.

The enemy Haman has been removed. The King’s anger subsided. Mordecai has gotten his recognition, but the problem remains. • The removal of Haman is not the end of the problem for the Jews. There’s still an unfinished task. The first edict of the King issued through Haman still stands. • The ...read more

The Trouble With Truth

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Aug 11, 2015

Today Jews are looking to the time when God will be worshiped by Israel once again and Jerusalem will be the center of that worship. But just as in the days of Amos a false religion will replace the true worship. Saints that time is fast approaching

Message: Today we look at a farmer who stands on the Word of God and who takes on a King who has replaced the word of God with a lie. It is really a David and Goliath kind of story but this farmer never throws a stone he just uses God’s word to cut this king down to size. This farmer goes to ...read more

The Challenge To Keep On Keeping On

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Sep 11, 2020

These Jews find themselves in unfamiliar territory. They were depressed, dismayed and dysfunctional. Life has a way of carrying us to our Babylon. Even in Babylon, there are something that we must not do, Don’t Quit!

Subject: Dare to Keep on Keeping on! Psalm 137:1-6 “By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.

The Power Of Prayer Series

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Jun 21, 2023

Who Killed Jesus?

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Aug 25, 2025

Who killed Jesus? Was it Judas, Caiaphas, or the Jews in general? The Apostles Creed says “He was crucified under Pontius Pilate,” no one else. If we’re looking for someone to blame, the buck stops at Rome.
