    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,389 views

    Sardis had the reputation of being a highly respected church, but it was dead and lifeless.

    Have you ever been in a church that was dead or dying? How does that happen? Usually it happens when a church gets satisfied with itself, with keeping things the way they have always been. This is usually a church that rests on its laurels and its past history, that revels in what used to be? ...read more

    Do we have the right to reinterpret Paul's inspired qualifications for elders and deacons, adapting them to a sinful society? Let's find out in 1 Timothy 3.

    Do we have any authority to ignore Paul’s inspired qualifications for elders and deacons? Do we have any authority for man-made requirements? Do we have any authority to ordain women as elders?

    INTRO.- A noble task. What’s that? It depends on what you consider to be a noble task. I personally would not commend tending bar as being a noble task nor many other jobs in this world.

Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. I do not permit ...read more

    Now I am not a chef, but I would imagine that if you were going to feed a group of chefs, you had better know something about cooking.

     | 1,316 views

    Men have become followers, not leaders. In too many cases men have abrogated their positions through a bad Christian walk, laziness; a careless, unconcerned walk with the Lord.

THE UNDERSTANDING IS BAD 2Kings 2 v 15 [[Now when the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho opposite him saw him, they said, “The spirit of Elijah rests on ...read more
