    If God did not tell Jesus, He is definitely not telling anyone else.

    On this day in 2012, the Rapture or the end of the world was to happen. Seven years later the Rapture was to happen on December 8th according to a chart I saw. Now others believe the Rapture is imminent. The 1st Century Christians thought He would come back in their lifetime. Every generation ...read more

    Now because I am a Christian and I love God, I do not want to take advantage of do-overs. I want as few do-overs as possible in my Christian life.

    Introduction The past several sermons that I have preached I have been talking about do-overs. I showed you from daily life, there are do-overs and I gave you several examples. And I used those examples to introduce you to the fact that in our Christian life, there are do overs. I pointed to a ...read more

    God did what the law could not.

    A SET FREE MINDSET. Romans 8:1-5. “Then-now-no” begins the Greek of this wonderful chapter of God’s Book. This firm negation placed right at the beginning of the sentence serves to emphasise the absolute impossibility of there ever being any “condemnation” - to whom? “To those in Christ ...read more

    Peter has good intentions, but they are not in agreement with God's ultimate plan. We must covenant to deny ourselves and align ourselves to God's will and ways.

    WE MAY HAVE HEARD THIS FAMILIAR SAYING: “THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS.” AN INTENTION IS SIMPLY A PLAN OR GOAL WE HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH. IRONICALLY, INTENTIONS DON’T ACHIEVE ANYTHING. THEY ARE MERELY IDEAS AND DREAMS OF SPECIFIC THINGS THAT WE’D LIKE TO SEE DONE IN THE ...read more

    It is normal for living things to grow.

    It is normal for living things to grow. • We plant seeds and expect plants to spring up and grow, producing fruit, nuts, vegetables, herbs, grains, lawns or flowers. • We have children and, though sometimes it seems it happens too quickly, they grow and become independent of the old folks. ...read more

    Isaiah in 700 B.C. set the stage for what we believe as Christians today, a strong evidence for the truth of the Gospel and an encouragement to our faith.

    Setting the Tone for Jesus (Isaiah 7:1-17, 8:1-4, 9:1-7). 1. A middle-aged, wealthy woman has a heart attack. While on the operating table she has a near death experience. She sees the angel at the gates and asks if this is it. The angel says no, she has another 30-40 years to live. She ...read more

    Suppose that the Lord Jesus chose this very moment to return. Would you be ready? Our objective as Christians is not merely to be included in the Rapture but to bring as many people with us as we can. My eternal hope and my ongoing prayer is that neither you nor I get “left behind.”

    One day a pastor was flying home from a speaking engagement. During the flight he observed one of the pilots flirting and chatting it up with one of the women flight attendants. He also noticed that the pilot was wearing a wedding ring and the flight attendant was not. As he watched the couple ...read more

    2 Timothy 2:24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 And that they may recover themselves out of ...read more

    Much like the plague, sin spreads and ravages people's lives. Even though God provides a divine remedy to sin, most people are unaware of how it works.

    Going viral is a common phrase nowadays that is used for sharing something through email or social media that quickly spreads to thousands or even millions of people online. While it may be a piece of news, a fad, or something funny, most things that go viral on the internet are harmless and go ...read more

    In the story of Esther and Mordecai, the events seem to perfectly fit together at just the right times for things to happen. Coincidence? Not likely. Though God is not mentioned by name in Esther, God was working in their lives and continues to work in ours today.

    Introduction Video Ill.: The Story of Esther - Second Look Films (segment 3) We are continuing our study today based loosely on Max Lucado’s book, You Were Made for This Moment. When we started, we saw that Esther and Mordecai just wanted to blend in — to be cosy in the Persian culture. Don’t ...read more

    Jesus is never late. He makes all things beautiful in His time. When it is someone's set time, at the very contact with Jesus, there will surely be a turn around testimonies that will leave a mark in the life of that believer. Surely, Jesus is the Lord of all.

    Psalm 102:3-5: 3 For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned like a hearth. 4 My heart is stricken and withered like grass, so that I forget to eat my bread. 5 Because of the sound of my groaning my bones cling to my skin. Then verses Psalms 102:13-17 suddenly brings succor and ...read more

    Instead of running from Holy Spirit fire and God’s plan and purpose for our lives, we need to start running towards the flames to get set ablaze. First we’ll look at what Holy Spirit fire does, and then the benefits it provides for our lives.

    Getting Set Ablaze Watch on YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urqS5XGpp94 This past year, we saw a deadly fire sweep through Lahaina killing 97 and destroying one of Hawaii’s cultural centers, as Lahaina used to be the capital of the Hawaiian Kingdom.

    If we don’t set ourselves apart, we are doomed to be no different from wordly people. If we contine to conform with the world, we will be lukewarm Christians.

    Please bring out your bibles. Or your bible app? And if you don’t have one, please feel free to get a bible in the back or to share with your seatmate. I would really prefer that you use a real bible, why – because the real bible doesn’t have any other applications inside the book. It doesn’t have ...read more
