    A transformed life should lead to transformed relationships, adding brotherly affection to godliness.

    What comes to your mind when you hear the word “fellowship”? Usually, we think of spending time with fellow believers, sharing a cup of coffee or chatting with them.

    A Charge Of Insanity

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 28, 2012
     | 5,164 views

    The charges against Jesus ranged all the way from being demon-possessed to being a mere man. Jesus’ answer to all these charges against Him was perceptive.

What we have been looking at the last two studies are the reactions to Jesus’ claims. We ...read more

    Yes, we have enemies. Yes, they seem to have the upperhand. Yes, they hate us and mock us and laugh at us for serving Jesus!!! BUT THEIR DAY OF JUDGMENT IS COMING. They have a terrible future in Hell coming, but AS FOR ME, I have a glorious future.

    AS FOR ME--PSALM 17 Introduction: Every man who tries to live for God will make some enemies. This World is not friendly toward God.

    Any person that has just come to Christ has many needs. We are going to use Acts 9 verses 10-18 to see what the Bible says about these needs and how we, as Christians can help to supply those needs.
