    You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, but why do you not know how to interpret the present time? (Luke 12:56)

    The theme for today’s sermon is “knowing the times”. The first words of the Bible are “In the beginning (time) God created the heavens (space) and the earth” (matter). The relationship between time, energy, space and matter is a fundamental concept in physics to give us an understanding of the ...read more

    The end time is near. It is as close as your last breath. The day you die is the end of time for you. Jesus is coming back soon. It is sooner than people think.

    TEXT: Revelation 3:3 "Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near."

    We are all wore out. Life drains us. The continual attacks of the enemy take our strength. But through it all, we must stay awake spiritually.

    Not Time for Sleeping Romans 13:11,12 11 ¶ And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the ...read more

    God makes the decisions

    In God’s Time We all have dreams. I’m not talking about the kind of dreams you have when you’re sleeping. I’m thinking more along the lines of the kind that kids have. Kids often dream about what they want to be when they grow up. You know, things like being a singer, ...read more

    Funeral sermon for Vera Byars, court information specialist and amateur dancer. Ballroom, minuet/ballet, tap -- whatever style she used, it all witnessed to a life of joy. This is not any longer a time to mourn.

    I agree with the Scripture, where it says that, “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.” I agree with that, because we know that some things are fine, in their place, but they are not appropriate in other places. There is a time and a season for everything, ...read more

    Why did Jesus give his disciples a prophecy about the End Times - and what can we learn from it?

    NR 30-10-05 The End Times. Mt 24 is one of the hardest chapters in the Gospels to understand. Because Jesus speaks of future events. Jesus prophesies quite clearly the Fall of the Temple in Jerusalem in Mt 24:2 - that actually happened in AD 70 – and with it ...read more

    The gift of Salvation!

    Looking at this story, there were many things that came to mind. The first thing that I did was thanked God that it was Jesus who hung on the cross.
