Patience In The Battle

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on May 16, 2023

One of the things that the Church, from my perspective, does not see how patient Satan is when it comes to seeing his destructive agenda manifest in our country and the world. This message examines looks at one example of this.

Let’s open this evening with Hebrews 10:35, the foundational verse for this message. It says, “For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.” I was raised in a small country church in Tennessee in the 1960s and 1970s. When I say small, I’d ...read more

The Battle Within

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 26, 2025
