     | 3,420 views

    Was Islam the "rod of God's wrath" or the foil for the great miracle of the sixteenth century?

    Feast of St. Andrew 2017 Reformation/Revolution The Synoptic Gospels don’t pay a lot of attention to St. Andrew. The triad Peter, James and John is often seen–on Mt.

     | 97 views

    The sermon calls believers to reject favoritism and embrace Christlike love, welcoming all as equals in God’s family regardless of status or background.

    What is it that makes for a strong Christian Community? Moses identifies three underpins of the Church -- The Family Incubator, The Word of God and the assurance of God’s gracious love.

    Pentecost 2 A Deuteronomy 11:18-21; 26-28 Underpinnings for the Church of God 06/02/02 I would guess that’s not a word that you use in your everyday vocabulary. More customary is the use of other words with similar meaning; words like “foundation” or “groundwork” or “building blocks.” Any of ...read more

     | 8,592 views

    If you have forsaken the assembly of Christians, we encourage you to take these steps.

    based on 71 ratings
     | 25,631 views

    The seven churches are representative of the church as a whole; the number seven symbolizing completion or perfection.

    Most students are eager to get into the action of Revelation as soon as possible. Therefore they tend to skip over chapters two and three in the Book of Revelation without realizing their importance. But the churches give us an almost inexhaustible storehouse of wisdom and knowledge. The seven ...read more

  • Churchill Or Church, Ill?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 29, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,067 views

    As Winston Churchill rallied the British people, so Paul rallies Christians by urging us to review our motivations and to present something solid and not merely entertaining. Such a church will prevail and thrive.

    On the fifth of June, 1940, not even a month after he became prime minister, Winston Churchill spoke to the British people to encourage them of their desperate situation.

    What can we learn today from the churches at Smyrna and Pergamum, one of the seven churches in Revelation 2-3 ?

    Why would letters be written to these churches? Well, Smyrna was a very important centre of trade, with a valuable harbour, and big wine business. It was a very beautiful city, even outstanding. In all the civil wars, the people of Smyrna always chose the right side to be: it was politically ...read more
