    God wants us to experience His adventure, His miraculous provision and defense, His Word, His will, and, like Jesus, His choice of ending to the story. The story may not be like the storybooks, fairy tales, and superhero movies. It may end in martyrdom.

    Revelation Chapter 11 continued 7. and when they have completed their testimony (witness), the beast will come out of the Abusso and make war with them, and overcome them and kill them. 8. and their bodies will be on the street of the great city, which is called spiritually Sodom and Egypt, where ...read more

    A reward for those who welcome Jesus' disciples. A warning for those who lead them astray.

    A SEQUENCE OF SAYINGS. Mark 9:38-50. 1. John informed Jesus of “one casting out devils in Your name; and we forbad him because he follows not with us” (Mark 9:38).

    You haven't always existed; only God is eternal in both directions. Your soul will exist long after your physical life is over, either in heaven with God or in hell separated from God.

    INTRODUCTION What is your most precious possession? This world has plenty of expensive baubles and trinkets. Here are some actual things people own that they probably consider to be a precious possession. For instance, how about a gold-plated, diamond studded iPhone? The cost is $2.97 million and ...read more

     | 5,222 views

    In the Church of The Nazarene there is a wing of missions called Extreme Nazarenes and we are thankful for their service in the Kingdom of God, but, are they really Extreme or just what Jesus calls us all to be?

This past Thursday we were privileged to have missionaries from Extreme Nazarenes with us for what we anticipated being our faith promise service.

    Because of the indwelling Holy Spirit, the same power that raised Jesus from the dead is the power that enables us to walk in the Spirit and not fulfill the sinful thinking, immoral conduct and fickled feelings.

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead has spiritual, psychological (mind, will, emotions) and physical ramifications ...read more

    Do we let earthly value supersede godly worth? Even if it is something negative in us which can come out as a glory to God. Are we willing to lose all that God has placed in our lives for His glory? What do we do with what has been placed in our hands?

    Opening illustration: A young girl of about 5-6 years old taught me how to worship God. The down side of her was that she had ‘downs syndrome’ which eventually became her strength. Who could ever think that she would become a model who would even teach the mature in Christ to worship ...read more
