Whatever exactly the case, the film grossed about 450 million dollars. The movie is loosely based on the ...read more

Eyes of Faith, not Sight 2 Kings 6: 15-20 During this time Israel faced numerous attacks from the Syrians. Each time Syria’s king planned an attack, the Lord gave Elisha insight to their plans and he was able to warn Israel.

Prophecy Fulfilled Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 20, 2021

In no area of biblical studies have Christians been more often deceived then in the area of prophecy. The early church fathers got caught up in wild spiritualizing of the Old Testament. They found profound revelations where there were none. It became so subjective that you could make Scripture ...read more

When one accepts the Lordship of Jesus there can be no problem in accepting His miraculous birth. Once you accept that Jesus is the Son of God it is no problem accepting the way He came into human flesh.

But the resurrection was in impregnable, and they could not ...read more
