    Gospel Goes Viral

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 922 views

    So, what is your role and the role of the church today in order to make the gospel go viral in our community, state, nation and to the ends of the earth? What are you doing about it?

    Opening illustration: The Viral Texts project at Northeastern University in Boston is studying how printed content in the 1800s spread through newspapers—the social media network of that day. If an article was reprinted 50 times or more, they considered that “viral” for the Industrial Age. Writing ...read more

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on May 24, 2024
     | 3,345 views

    Identification is done, now we look into the distant path and see Lucifer ruling in a perfect state until he decides he is to good to be where God wanted him to be, the war begins.

    Rev. 12; Ezekiel 28:1-14; Isaih 14:11-15 INTRO: It’s a fact that we don’t know what truly transpired in the distant past, we only have bits and pieces that God has left us in his word.

    I want to begin my message with a hate speech – about the Yankees.
