    Whether the boy was a lunatic or suffered from epilepsy is not really the issue. Fact of the matter is the Church suffered from a seizure of unbelief that cripples the ministry of Christ.

    Before we talk about our text this evening we need to first ask ourselves do we truly, honestly, sincerely, want to see our Lord’s return. I ask because the Bible gives us four things that must occur before the Second Coming of Christ and they are all within our scope of responsibility and are ...read more

They are the same group who claim to be the 144,000 talked about in chapter 7 of Revelation. Much of that group’s theology comes from misunderstandings of the end times, ...read more

    Apostle Paul confirms his calling to be an Apostle with great assurance and confidence. Though he equals himself with other Apostles who were with Christ. Yet he understood his calling was to be an apostle. He says Jesus was Son of man - Kata Sarxa and Son of God - Kata Pneuma.

    Theme: Three Calls Text: Romans 01:01-07 CALL TO BE SENT - Apostolic call Romans 01:1-4 Wesley says: “While God calls, he makes what he calls.

    So many of us build our lives upon things that will one day crumble: wealth, status, possessions, even health. But Paul reminds us to fix our gaze not on the sandcastles of this world but on what will last forever.
