    We see in John’s actions indications for what God desires His church to know and do: [1] feast on His Word; [2] understand the two-fold effect of God’s Word (bitter-sweet); [3] take the responsibility to pray & study & preach His Word.

    Last week, as we began studying chapter 10, we came to the second set of back-to-back parenthetical visions in the book of Revelation. We were reminded that the main focus of the Tribulation period is the judgment of God, and that the main purpose of parenthetical visions is for God to be able to ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,399 views

    As long as mankind has been around there has never been an illustration or definition of God's grace that stays in the heart until it takes root and begins to grow. 2 Peter 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

    It's God's Grace that goes to bat for us. Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

    In this first-of-two talks we look at some of the initial things that helped Elijah recover from depression. They are things we can also do. They paved the way for God to address the root cause of the problem: Elijah's sense of failure.

    INTRODUCTION We’re now onto the second talk in our series called ‘Bible Stories for Grown-Ups.’ In these talks we’re going back to some of the famous stories in the Old Testament which we may have heard as children, perhaps at home or at Sunday School.
