     | 1,239 views

    Though the world may persecute us, and evil may seem to prevail, we must still work for Christ. The Church must shine for Him. We must preach and demonstrate the gospel, for without us, how will the world know Christ?

    Opening illustration: All of us are slaves to time. We wear wristwatches or have timers on our smart phones to keep us on schedule. We have digital clocks in our car and alarm clocks on our nightstands. Lots of people keep a Day-Timer nearby so they can keep track of their appointments and ...read more

     | 829 views

    A study of the Beatitudes. Jesus begins His sermon on the mount answering the question: "What will it take to make you happy?" His answer, however, is far different from the way most people will answer. In fact, his answers appear to bring sorrow, not happiness.

    PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS: RESTRAINED POWER A. Walk up to a group of BOYS playing basketball or baseball and ask what quality each of them would like to possess, and you’ll get answers like: “To run fast.” “To jump high.” “To be strong.” 1.

    What is the lake of fire and what is the first and second death? We look into that. A further look into the sea giving up its dead. If you read this and are not saved, you do not want to end up at the great white throne and then in the lake of fire. Jesus died for you. Repent and turn to Him.
