    When Nations Are Shaken

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Sep 3, 2016
     | 7,184 views

    When threatened by hostile states, how shall a nation respond? And who shall lead the nation to deliverance?

    “The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; he frustrates the plans of the peoples. The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the plans of his heart to all generations.

    There are three times in Hebrews 10:19-25, that the Hebrew writer uses the phrase, “let us,” to appeal to the local congregation about being steadfast in their attendance to the local assembly or church.

    One of the greatest tragedies of the 21st Century in America is the realism that millions of people who claim to know Jesus Christ rarely attend a local church or participate in the worship services. In so many of the American churches, a lot of people basically attend three times in their entire ...read more

    Several facts about how a church should be can be found in the first three verses of 1 Corinthians 1.

    The first three verses of 1 Cor. 1 are the introduction to Paul’s letter. It’s only three verses, but they set the scene for the rest of the letter. Let’s look at the first verse. READ v. 1. Notice that Paul didn’t refer to himself as a messenger of himself or of anyone ...read more

    Small congregations might feel ineffective at reaching people, but big things come in small packages. Both the parable of "the mustard seed" and "the yeast" show how small, seemingly insignificant things can make a huge impact.
