"A number of years ago, the church I attend set up a very nice nativity set in the front of our sanctuary during the four weeks leading up to Christmas, when we observe Advent.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,199 views

    Now it would seem ridiculous to ignore sin & Satan completely, so they don’t. But what God calls sin in the Bible isn’t necessarily what they consider to be sin. And the idea of a real Satan is hard for some to accept.

    The Bible urges, "Pray without ceasing." But how do we do that? Well, we can start by giving God our waking thoughts, our waiting thoughts, our worrying thoughts, and our waning thoughts.

    When you lose your Queen piece in chess, you are likely going to lose the game as well unless you are strategically prepared. The church has relied for centuries on its queen, the Sunday/Sabbath day Big Event. But what if pandemic or persecution takes away your queen? How will you then do church?
