    What is the church supposed to be like, why do we exist. This message looks at 5 characteristics of the Church

    Twenty years ago I read a statement in the “preacher’s magazine.” And it said, “The church is like Noah’s ark, if it wasn’t for the judgement on the outside, you’d never be able to stand the smell on the inside.” I chuckled, I wrote it down, I filed it, but later I went back and read it and got ...read more

    It is impossible to understand marriage without understanding the church.

    If you have seen the movie “Fireproof,” you probably remember the scene of the salt and pepper shakers glued together. And if you have attended weddings, you have probably heard the minister say to the bride and groom that the two will become one flesh. Do you know where to find those words in ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 4, 2023
     | 1,260 views

    One of the amazing explorations in the New Testament is to look at all the mysteries. These have impacted the Church greatly. A mystery is something that was hidden in the past; not known, but at a certain point in time, the whole truth is revealed. We look at 21 mysteries.

    based on 48 ratings
     | 12,813 views

    The Lord had three things to commend this church for, but the rebuke brought focus to the very real problem of loosing your love for Christ.

    As I believe the Lord is leading, it is imperative for us to consider exactly what type of church Jesus desires to have. While opinions and ideas could, and probably would run rampant concerning that topic, there is one place the answer may be clearly found. That is in God’s Word. While many ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,981 views

    Don’t you just love a good mystery? In today’s passage, Paul reveals the fact that marriage is a mystery. But it’s not just an ordinary mystery. Marriage is a mystery that reveals the true nature of Jesus and the love He has for His bride, the church.

    http://brushforkbanner.blogspot.com/ In just these few verses, Paul tells us that this thing called marriage is a picture. In the working out of what it means to be husband and wife, married couples paint a picture of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In the unique role of a man being a husband, he is ...read more

    But chapters 4 through 18 deal primarily with: • The Seal Judgments • The Trumpet Judgments • The Vial Judgments He has now severely judged the inhabitants of the earth.

    Apocalypse Of The Church

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jan 25, 2022
     | 1,104 views

    The apocalypse described in Mark's Gospel can be viewed as a prophecy that can occur today! Churches need to stop the bleeding loss of membership before it is too late. Christ's love will make that change.

    Apocalypse of the Church Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Mark 13:14-23 14 “But when you see the ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION standing where it should not be (let the reader understand), then those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains. 15 “aThe one who is on the housetop must not go down, or go in ...read more
