    Many people today believe that God’s kingdom is governed on the same basis as our nation, democracy, if this was true then the right way to heaven would be that of the majority. Although the nation Israel knew nothing of democracy as we have it, they, t

     | 16,225 views

    We come to points in our lives when it appears to be too late to do what we felt called to do. Our problem is that we have expected God to do for us what we would not do ourselves. But the good news is that God is an empowering healer.

    The way is often perilous and hard. We can’t see what lies ahead, feeling helpless and alone. God wants you to trust even when you don’t understand, when the future’s uncertain, and you cannot go on. Trust Him.

    The Church Of Tolerance

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 9, 2006
    based on 30 ratings
     | 7,987 views

    In our society today, tolerance is considered a virtue. But our definition of it has changed - and accepting and even applauding any and every practice will weaken and pollute our lives. Learn how to safeguard your church and your life from compromise.

    When I read verses 18-29 I picture a church in turmoil - a good church with good people that has been infiltrated with those who would exploit weakness and draw off believers into immorality. The good people stand by and watch - and mourn. The church in Thyatira was small - and sometimes in a small ...read more
