Let us begin a study of the book of Daniel to understand the protection of righteous Hebrew children during the captivity. God has always promised to his righteous he would always be with them in time of peril. The very nature of man is to wonder or worry about their future. When under stress, the ...read more

A Time To Wait, A Time Not To Wait Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 4, 2022

The believers were instructed to wait in Jerusalem. They were not ready, but why not? They were absolutely convinced of the resurrection, but still not ready to launch out and take the Gospel to a lost and dying world. Wait for the power of the Holy Spirit.
