Focus On The Almighty

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 29, 2022

Psalm 139 is an incredible psalm, one of the best. Most of the psalm focuses on the omni characteristics of God. But these verses are not just the psalmist waxing eloquent, these verses are truths about God.

He is not searching and knowing you presently, He has already searched and known everything about you. God knows your actions (“thou knowest my downsitting and mine ...read more

Get A Glimpse

When it comes to that special person, talking on the phone is good, or doing Facetime, but nothing beats being with them in their presence. In Exodus 33, Moses gets alone with God to be in His ...read more

New Birth - A Passport To Heaven!

Contributed by Reggie Corfield on May 13, 2024

Never compromise for cheap Christianity that takes you close but not far enough to inherit eternal life. Many good people like Nicodemus are so caught up with religion that they lose sight of eternity.

True Success

Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on May 27, 2024

Today, I will discuss success. I have been reluctant to discuss this topic because I do not want to be associated with the teaching of "Theology of Success" or "Prosperity Gospel," which is not based on the complete teachings of the Bible. But two weeks ago, I felt the Holy ...read more
