    God’s gift of membership in his kingdom is a treasure that’s worth giving up everything else to possess. His gift of his revealed word is a treasure that we can bring out of our storerooms over and over again to apply to each new situation we find ourselv

    Thousands of books have been written in response to that age old question; what's the meaning of life?' Nearly all of them are wrong but there is an ancient book, written by the inspiration of God that tells us the answer to that most perplexing question!

It's a question that has been widely debated by scholars and philosophers and yet simply ignored or even scoffed at by scientists and atheists. That question is "what is ...read more

    The Armor Of God 6 Of 8

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022
     | 1,929 views

    So often when preachers preach on the armor of God they will deal with one certain piece of the armor, but not the whole armor of God. This kind of preaching needs to be done with caution.

    Why? Because anytime we preach on the armor of God, we need to stress what this passage of Scripture is stressing, that is, we need to put on the WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD, not just a particular piece. The fact is, if we do not put on the whole armor of God, we might as well not put any on. Why? Because ...read more
