    Contributed by Luther Sexton on Mar 14, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,781 views

    Ministers often complicate the doctrine of the rapture for people by stating that many signs must be seen and many prophecies must be fulfilled before the second coming of Christ, and then, at the same time, they make statements that He might come tonight or at any moment.

    THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH INTRO: We mean the rapture of the church, the catching up of all true believers in Christ to meet the Lord in the air. Dake I Thes 4:13-17, I Cor 15:23, Phil 3:20-21, John 14:1-3, Luke 21:34-36, Col. 3:4 Called "the coming of the Lord” but never the second ...read more

    This week I found an old letter my Grandad sent to me as a kid - as I decyphered word for word the difficult handwriting it made me reflect on Paul's letter we have listened to this morning - and how if we decypher it word for word - it too can turn out to be so precious to us

    I moved into my new house last December and (Don’t judge me for this) – I am still unpacking boxes – including some that never got unpacked from the previous move ten years ago… And while I was going through some boxes this week, I came across this – It’s a letter to me from my granddad written to ...read more

    Beloved, to miss our purpose in life, is to miss everything because our purpose is what drives our vision and without the proper wisdom to use the knowledge we have learned, we will miss our assignment causing our life and ministry to end-up shipwrecked on the rocks of doom and despair.

    This last article in "THE DAY OF THE LORD" is a summary of all events from the Rapture of the Church until eternity with the new heavens and new earth, and the New Jerusalem. I believe the world is very close to the start of this. It is as if the world has primed itself ready to go.

    Immediately Series

    based on 39 ratings
     | 7,744 views

    This was done as a dramatic monologue, as if I were Mark; and costumed according to Mark 14:51-52! It makes use of one of Mark’s favorite words, "immediately", and argues that Jesus expects immediate response to His call.

    What’s happening? What’s going on here? I came as quickly as I could. If you linger, you will miss Him. He waits for no one. He acts immediately. He is the most urgent person I’ve ever known. He just does not wait for anything. He acts immediately. So, again, what’s happening here? What ...read more
