Paul mentions various gifts or abilities. • 1 Corinthians 12:8-11, For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to ...read more

This story tells of a certain nobleman who received a kingdom, and it showed the followers of Jesus what they were to do during the time between when Jesus would leave and his Second Coming. The followers were to be unwavering and fruitful while he was gone. ...read more

    Do We Have A Vision Of Goodness?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Feb 4, 2023
     | 773 views

    Are we focused just on what and who is inside our church doors? Or are we looking, searching and sharing what we have with others so that they may come in?

    In this context, vision alludes to the disclosure (prophesy) that the prophets would obtain from God. Where there is obliviousness of God, sin and crime go out of control. The public moral compass of society relies upon the knowing God’s directions, yet it likewise relies upon individuals keeping ...read more
