    A young prophet dies because he broke his fast... but he was lied to! He was deceived! Why should he pay such a harsh price for such a little mistake?

    OPEN: As raw recruits were preparing for their first jump from a C130 aircraft at 1200 ft., the sergeant explained what to do if the main parachute didn’t open: “Snap back immediately into a tight body position,” he said. “Then pull the rip cord of your reserve chute and it ...read more

     | 3,285 views

    Sometimes we get a wake-up call, like Peter did. Our culture is assailing Christianity. Will we wake up and take action--prayer, fasting and giving?

    Third Sunday of Easter 2013 “Do You Love Me?” There’s an old story about a farmer who had a mule to sell. When the buyer came around to see the mule, he tried several times to get the mule to pull his wagon. The mule would not move. The seller was walking off with his money ...read more

     | 11,328 views

    THE MOST FUNDAMENTAL DOCTRINE THAT WE MUST HOLD FAST TO IS THAT OF THE RESURRECTION. IF THERE IS NO RESURRECTION THERE IS NO CHRISTIANITY. IT IS IN THE POWER OF THE RESURRECTION THAT WE GAIN OUR PEACE AND ENCOURAGEMENT AS WE LIVE IN THIS DARK WORLD.

    THE REALITY OF THE RESURRECTION 1 CORINTHIANS 15:1-22 TWO MEN WERE OUT IN A BOAT FISHING ONE SUNDAY MORNING. THEY WERE FEELING PRETTY GUILTY ABOUT MISSING CHURCH, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE FISH WERE NOT BITING. ONE SAID TO THE OTHER “I GUESS WE SHOULD HAVE STAYED HOME AND GONE TO CHURCH THIS ...read more

    Our witness must be positive–we hold fast to what we know is true, and treat those who don’t share those views with charity and patience.

    Thursday of fifth week in Lent 2017 Joy of the Gospel Today we look at the person and commitment of Abraham, whom the Liturgy calls “our father in faith.” Genesis records the fundamental promise that the Jews–and Christians–hold dear.

    Evangelical Congregations do not observe the practice of fasting during Lent. But is there meaning beyond the ritualistic nature of the Lent season? How are you preparing to meet the resurrected Lord of the Easter?

    Lent: A Ritual or Preparation? We are part of an evangelical congregation and hence many of us do not observe the Lenten season as done in the mainline churches. But many of you who have grown up , or are used to the ways of the mainline churches will certainly remember the Lenten season. Those of ...read more

    Scarification And Resurrection

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 21, 2019
     | 3,392 views

    By prayer, fasting and giving we wear away our protective ego so that the grace of Christ can seep into or flood our souls and bring us to new life.

    Easter 2019 Scarification and Resurrection It’s been years since I made a loaf of bread, or cinnamon rolls, but I do remember the leavening. I recall taking warm water and adding a package of Fleishmann’s yeast and then mixing in the flour and salt and oil. You have to knead–that’s spelled with a ...read more

    Throughout history, karma theology has penetrated church beliefs and enslaved people to serve God based on legalistic performance so they can earn His approval, receive rewards, blessings, healing, and obtain a victorious life. - A Two-Part Series

    Karma is the "law of the deed" and is a century's old worldwide belief that if you do good things then good will come back to you, and if you do bad, then bad will come back to you. It is believed that suffering is the result of a person's wrongdoing in the past. It can be ...read more
