    This passage tells us that every person ought to walk like Jesus. He is to be the standard for which we are to all reach. Just as Jesus was the manifestation of God to the world. We are to be the manifestation of Jesus to this world.

    1 John 2:3-6 NKJV “How is your walk?” January 14, 2024 A little over a decade ago George Barna wrote a book about trends of Christians in America called “Futurecast,” where he tracks annual changes starting in the 90’s for about 20 years and shows that all the major trend lines of religious ...read more

    "Why Is There So Much Suffering In The World?"

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Jun 28, 2006
    based on 30 ratings
     | 3,801 views

    God is able to use the mystery that suffering often brings. Yet, some people quickly reach the end of their rope when they encounter adversities. The Lord’s grace is sufficient for any weakness, confusion or problem.

    "Why is There So Much Suffering in the World?" John 9:1-9:38 "It was neither that this man sinned or his parents, but in order that the works of God might be displayed in him." (John 9:4) Many people fail to understand God’s greater purposes for physical suffering. Instead of allowing the ...read more

    Religion has been described as following a set pattern of dos and don’ts, an outward expression with no inward authenticity, or the human effort to reach God. Religion knows about God without knowing Him.

    At about the end of May and the first part of June hundreds of thousands of students walk across stages and platforms to receive a diploma. This is something they have been working hard for. During the WMU graduation on May 21, Mr. Probasko’s last statements to the class of 2006 was, “Would the ...read more

    “Qualified” is a welcomed word for anyone who strives to reach a definite goal in any area of life (athletics; employment; academics, etc.). How infinitely more thrilling to be declared “qualified” for an eternal home in heaven!

    QUALIFIED “Giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.” ...read more

    Go!

     | 6,002 views

    Until the time of Jesus’ resurrection, the mission was primarily to other Jews. Non Jews were proselytized; however they sought Jesus and his disciples out. Here Jesus explicitly commands the disciples to reach out.

    This morning we have heard the life story and call of Faye to go and serve China in mission. Her mandate is the same as the one upon which the Church as we know it is built. It comes from a directive issued by Jesus himself to his disciples just prior to his ascension into heaven. We find it in ...read more

    Many are perishing from thirst, spiritually, even while there is an abundant supply of the Water of Life in reach of everyone in the land. We are blessed not just materially, but spiritually - yet we done even realize it.

    Some years ago in the newspapers there was a female novelist found dead in the desert of America. She had died of thirst. It seems that she had started out across the desert thinking she had enough water to make the trip; However when she stopped to get a swallow she found out that her canteen was ...read more
