    The Bible says that many were willing to believe in Him because of His signs, or His miracles. Still, Jesus can see through such false “belief.” If belief were a pool of water, then their belief would have been a puddle.

Ever since Watergate that took down the 37th President of the United States, scandal and corruption stories often end with the word” gate” as a result. There was Nannygate, Deflategate, Grannygate, and Spygate. I invite you ...read more

    I think we can all agree that the world is getting pretty crazy, and some Christians are wondering if we’re in the endtimes. Some are even wondering if we’re in the Tribulation period. Well, if you believe in a pretribulation rapture – that Christ will take us to heaven before the terrible things ...read more

    Pentecost worship is about joy, and the invitation is to let the Spirit be poured out on “you” is plural. It was because they were gathered together that this happened. This is a Devine hug of welcome and Joy.
