    We live in days of urgency. The headlines scream with wars and rumours of wars. Morality collapses, society drifts further from God, and people are searching for answers in all the wrong places. But the Word of God is not silent about what is to come.

    Yeshua Vs Jesus The Real Name Part #1 Series

    Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Jan 4, 2026
     | 462 views

    There are those that want to say that you want to put so much emphasis on the name it really doesn’t matter that much and you don’t need to teach that. However understanding Yeshua’s name helps maintain the continuity of the Hebrew identity and heritage that it rightfully ours.

    Yeshua vs Jesus The Real Name By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING: - About 25 / 27 years ago I was preaching and I stated how the name Jesus was not the actual name of Christ but was the translated version of Yeshua the actual name of Christ. I was young in the ministry and let me say it ...read more

    Just before Jesus returned to his rightful place in Heaven there were final things he wanted to do for his disciples. He still offers to do these for his followers today.

    A Study of the Book of Luke Sermon # 70 “Final Instructions” Luke 24:36-53 It was an almost impossible situation that the eleven remaining disciples (after Judas’ death) faced as they met in private to discuss the plan for their next move. They were frightened and confused. Their initial response ...read more

    All of the things that Hezekiah did were to help his people return to God. Part of what he reinstated and restored was the giving of tithes. It was the final piece of the picture he was trying to restore.

    HEZEKIAH’S HEAPS 2 CHRONICLES 31:5-10 INTRODUCTION... 3 Sermons (http://elbourne.org/sermons/index.mv?illustration+1136) One sunny Sunday morning a shrewd minister who desperately needed funds for his struggling church stood up in the pulpit and announced: ‘Brothers and sisters, I have before me ...read more

    Jesus makes three points regarding the end of time: we should not be focused on this world, that his return is universal…it includes all people, and that we need to be alert at all times.

    In Luke chapter twenty-one, verse twenty-five to thirty-six Jesus makes three points regarding the end of time: we should not be focused on this world, that his return is universal…it includes all people, and that we need to be alert at all times.

    Do We Think Jesus Is Coming Back Or Not?

    based on 16 ratings
     | 6,464 views

    This sermon encourages us to watch, to wait, to be alert, to be on our guard, and not to worry. This is an encouragement to remember and believe that Jesus will indeed return with great power and glory, and to remember it whatever our current circumstance

    If I were to hand out confidential voting papers on which you can vote either ‘Yes’ or ‘No’, I wonder what the results would be …(long pause). You want to know what the question is, don’t you! It’s this: Will Jesus return? Is He coming back? Yes or no. Mark chapter 13 is not easy to understand, ...read more

    Elijah the Man- The Model - The Method. What an example and challenge for us. In a time when our nation seems to be so far away from God, here is a call to return to Biblcal standards.

    Elijah The Man James 5:16b-18. 16b. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. 17. Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 18 Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth ...read more

    Beyond salvation, we must be serving. Christians don’t know when He will return, but we know WHAT He expects! We know what to BE, and what to DO.....

    A newspaper (Houston Chronicle, 11/3/92, p.11a), printed an article some years ago about the church known as Mission for the Coming Days. That “church” disbanded on Nov 2, 1992. The pastor had been put in jail...(for a very good reason)! It seems that his central message was the return of Christ ...read more

    Through out the 66 books of the Bible we read time and time again stories that increase and Stretch our faith as we become obedient. In return we begin to dream big!

    Dreaming Big! Text: Luke 5: 1-4 Life is full of lessons; lessons come several ways. Object lessons seem to be very effective in my opinion. Jesus is teaching the multitudes probably a message on trust or faith, and then Jesus spots Peter and the other disciples, so He decides ...read more

    We will study the sequencing of Jesus' message to the seven churches viz; commend, comfort, point of failures and reward. WE will also study the 3Rs of revival Viz; Repent, Return and Recover

    Church Revival/ Corporate Revival (Main reference Rev 2:8-11) Do you know the definition of a good sermon? It should have a good beginning, it should have a good ending, and they should be as close as possible. So let us see how good my sermon is going to be today.

    God’s mercy is the key part of a Christian’s commitment to God. In return, we are to show mercy to others. Christian life is marked by transformation and growth in discernment and understanding.

    How do you think of yourselves? There are two options. We can allow our lives, values, attitudes convictions and relationships to be influenced by the world, or we can be remodeled, transformed, reshaped and redesigned from the inside out by the Holy Spirit. How can we know God’s will for ...read more

    To be in the presence of Jesus is all we need. Yet simple message gets so distorted and confused. People need to return to what is important and that is Jesus. This sermon explains why. Read and enjoy!

    Realisation leads to Repentance, and that leads to Restoration. In realisation, we need fresh revelations of God. In repentance, we need to see the good purposes of God. In restoration, we seek to return to God.

    [Read Joel 2:11b-14] `Even now,` declares the LORD, `return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.` 13Rend your heart and not your garments.
