     | 4,144 views

    Christians, like Eagles, are destined to fly high in Christ's victorious nature and righteousness. They don't conform to the nature of fallen creatures, who can only flutter slightly above the ground of sin and corruption. Have you realized your genetic heritage yet?

    WHY EAGLES FLY AND CHICKENS FLUTTER Rom. 12:2 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Often we get into the same messes as those we’re critical of. 2. An EMT was working in the emergency room when a father brought in his son who had taken a tire off a miniature car and poked it into his nose. The father was ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 24, 2022
     | 1,981 views

    The term "The Day of the LORD" is used often in the Old Testament and in the New Testament. It is the time God intervenes openly in this world after the Rapture, in the Tribulation. A dreadful time. We look at all the references for that in a series. Revelation sits right in there.

NUMBER 3 [03]. {{Ezekiel 13:5-6 “You have not gone up into the breaches, nor did you build the wall around the house of Israel to ...read more

    Children Of The Resurrection

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jul 7, 2025
     | 197 views

    During troubling times, man reads things into the events happening and thinks they see apocalyptic inferences. Many speak of the coming End of Time. Often these spoken inferences are accepted as common understandings. Mankind begins to wonder about life after death.

    1 Man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble. 2 He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not. 5 Seeing his days are determined, the number of his months are with thee, thou hast appointed his bounds that he cannot pass; 10 But ...read more

    Jesus gives authority to serve, not rule—power shaped like a towel, lifting others, revealing love’s quiet strength, and mirroring His heart.

    1. The Ladder and the Towel My senior pastor once stood with me in the church fellowship hall staring at a row of framed photographs—portraits of evangelists who had conducted meetings through the years.
