    This is our second study in this series. God describes our problem, how we got there and what it does to us. Once we begin to understand the problem and how devastating it is, perhaps we will begin to appreciate the solution.

    We came from God. We were made to be like God. (As we studied last week). So, what is the problem? Genesis, again, holds the answer. Chapter 3 tells the story. Everything God made was good, very good. But then things change. There was this tree and this serpent. God had put Adam and Eve in a ...read more

    Through a marvelous word picture, our text describes the heavenly home the Lord has waiting for those whose names are written in the Book of Life. What’s that home like? Revelation 21 describes it.

    Jesus reaches out to us saying, “Don’t cry. It really will be alright,” and if we are willing-- if our eyes are open to God’s never ending presence among us, if we look for Him in the dim and mist of our confusion, hurt and pain--we will see that He is ri

    Their white garments, and golden crowns seem to indicate that these 24 represent the redeemed. The question is which redeemed? Not Israel because they aren’t saved until near the end. Not the unsaved because that happens after the 7 year tribulation.

    Call it Anything but Boring Revelation 4:1-11NKJ After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, “Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.” 2 ...read more

    God is separate from all that is sinful; He is the perfect measure of goodness. He is holiness itself--the source and standard of moral absolutes. Do we have a sense of God's holiness?

    Everything begins with God. He is at the center of our faith. Yet we don’t get out of bed each morning and mindlessly repeat “I believe” three times. We need to ask ourselves: “In whom do I believe?” We were made to know God. Do we? I’m not talking about ...read more

    The Crucible== Genuine?

     | 626 views

    Today we seem to expect exemption from suffering and test. There is a false teaching that if we are really close to God we will not be tested. Ask Abraham, Job, David, Joseph and Jesus about seasons of testing?

    The Power Of The Gospel. Pt.2

    Doctor Neil Anderson writes—Possibly the biggest lie believed by those who are struggling with an addictive behavior is that freedom from addiction is not possible. If we believe we are doomed to remain in bondage, we probably will remain in bondage.

    The Power Of The Gospel. Pt.2 Luke 4:18-19TPT Jesus is baptized by His cousin John. He did this to fulfill all righteousness. After He’s baptized, God’s word proclaims, Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness. Jesus lived in this desert country for 40 days. Moreover, Jesus will be ...read more

    A Big Crowd Meets a King I don’t know about you, but I like watching movie bloopers. There’s something funny about watching other people mess up.
