From the Parable of Jesus, lessons we can learn from the fig tree.

Lessons from the Fig Tree Luke 13:6-9 * As a primary in Sunday school, my teachers taught me to define a parable in this way: “It is a earthly story told by Jesus which has a heavenly meaning.” I guess the only way I would amend this is to say that it has a “divine” (instead of heavenly) meaning. ...read more

Because the end is near… pray, love, and serve.

Honestly, many of us are little afraid of closely examining the Bible’s message on the future. If we focus on the end times too long, we are afraid of turning into a guy walking around the city with a sandwich board yelling about judgment and the end of time. We easily get confused when reading ...read more

Cross Purposes 3: Redemption Series

Redemption is like purchasing a slave to free them. Jesus 1) made a personal investment, and 2) paid a price. We are free as we 1) recognize our worth, and 2) chooses to be slaves of God.

CROSS PURPOSES 5: REDEMPTION For the past 4 weeks, we have been asking, “Why did Jesus Christ, the Son of God, die on the cross for us?” We keep asking the same question, because the cross impacts our lives in so many ways, that we can’t exhaust them all: The cross shows the love of God. ...read more

What Exactly Is A "Layman?"

Contributed by Mark H. Stevens Thd on Jan 24, 2014

| 8,132 views

The Church is very ineffective because it is Clergy Driven and not driven by ALL believers with a passion for souls!

One problem I have found in the modern church is that we have made the church a CLERGY run entity. God meant the church to be driven by ALL of the saints. We are a body of BELIEVERS and BELIEVERS are supposed to CAST OUT DEVILS, PREACH THE GOSPEL, and LAY HANDS on the sick. (James 5:16 and Mark ...read more

Is our church focussed on what it's members prefer? Or we are fishers of people who get out of bed on a cold dark night because that is what fish prefer?
