    That Jesus will return is a constant theme of the New Testament and a basic Christian teaching. His return could be near. Are we ready?

It’s a line from the poet Tennyson: One far-off divine event to which all history moves. That ’one far-off divine event’ is the one we pray for every time we say ’Thy ...read more

    God did not create Eve until Adam had learned to be the "Keeper of the Garden." If our sons are not taught to be "keepers of the garden," there is no hope for the future of America. America’s gardens (homes) will become a wilderness!

    Title: "Return to the Garden" Introduction: God Made a Garden. Have you ever wondered why God made man in the first place? As you study the creation story, it is very evident that God was very pleased with his beautiful garden. But there was no man to till the garden soil. He made man to be ...read more

    America has strayed so far -- is there hope? I’ve fallen -- is there hope? Look at Jeremiah’s picture of a God who says, "No matter what you’ve done. . . return to me!" *HANDOUT INCLUDED*

    The word “return” and its derivatives occurs 112 times in the book of Jeremiah. The picture of God we get is that of a God who is following his chosen people to the very “brink of the falls”, so to speak, saying, “IT DOESN”T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY!” <ILLUS> Niagara falls, the “point of no ...read more
