Is Faith A Force, Tool, Power, Or?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jul 29, 2019

One of the biggest errors that have crept into the church over the years has been the teaching that ‘faith’ is a thing, power, or force to obtain or possess.

Many believe that if a person can conjure up enough ‘faith,’ they can be healed of any ailment, declare things into existence, and receive all the money they could ever want. Conversely, it is believed that if a person is not healed or has little money, they lack in personal faith. Most believe ...read more

The Age Of Discouragement

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 17, 2022

Legend has it that Satan once had an auction. He auctioned off all the weapons he possessed except one, it was the tool of discouragement.

He was asked why he refused to auction off the tool of discouragement. His answer we are told was simple. He said, “With this one tool I can accomplish everything I want to accomplish.” This is the most powerful weapon that Satan has, and he is a master at knowing how to use it skillfully! • ...read more

Home feels a little brighter when we remember Who holds the house together. Some of us walked in today with full calendars and thin margins. Wins at work, worries at home, maybe a mixture of both.

Recognizing The Signs Of Demonic Dominance And The Grip Of Evil Spirits. Series

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Mar 10, 2024

We can confidently affirm that the Holy Spirit is a divine being because He possesses the attributes of personhood, including a mind, emotions, and a will.

All Is Now Yours: Giving What We Do Not Have

It seems that we do not have what we think we have. Sometimes what seems to be ours is not ours at all. Buildings as sturdy as the Pentagon and as imposing as the World Trade Center can be destroyed in a moment of awful terror. Lives promising and beautiful are snuffed out, and there is little ...read more
