    based on 35 ratings
     | 14,371 views

    We ask the Holy Spirit to work through the verses of Psalm 47 to gently remind us of what the ascension of Jesus means for us. We have no reason to live our lives like deer caught in a car’s headlights. In light of this Psalm may each of us be empowered to live with an ascension attitude!

    ‘‘Men of Galilee, why do you stand here looking into the sky?” Do you think the angels were really looking for an answer from the disciples when they asked that question? It doesn’t seem as though they were. The question appears to have implied that the disciples had no good reason for standing ...read more

     | 10,624 views

    An exposition of the two primary texts from which the doctrine of the rapture is drawn, distinguishing what the Bible actually says from common ideas.

    The rapture is an intriguing subject and at the forefront of much Christian thought. What is it?

    Contributed by Andrew Chan on Jun 29, 2001
    based on 20 ratings
     | 2,703 views

    The model of caring offered by Jethro has much to offer the church in responding to the crisis of care and how we need not depend on a superstar to get by.

    HOW TO GET GOD’S ON-GOING CARE FOR ME Exodus 18:9-27 You will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation Ex.19:6 is our theme for the year, let’s flesh that out a little.

    The rapture of the church.

    The Rapture of the Church Even though many groups deny the rapture, the Bible clearly teaches that there is a rapture of God’s people when Christ returns.
