Would Jesus Be A Revolutionary

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jun 9, 2022

While His life revolutionized Hebrew thinking and affected much of world history, He did not come to overthrow the government.

Some try to make Jesus a political revolutionary. That was not His mission, nor is it the Church's Matthew 22:15  Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk.  16 And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we ...read more

Jesus Spoke With Authority

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Feb 7, 2022

The modern mind doesn't like to submit to authority, but if you don't recognize Jesus's authority, you don't recognize Jesus.

Three weeks ago we left off of our series on the early ministry of Jesus as he was walking out of his home town, Nazareth, very much alone, having been violently rejected by the people of the synagogue where he grew up. What a tragic story. We don’t know that he ever went back. If you missed ...read more

Joshua A Successful Leader Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Feb 25, 2022

Many spiritual programs, activities, and events are not fruitful, not successful, and never yield the targeted result, not because of lack of money and personnel but lack of sincere prayer warriors. We get people to stand on the frontline but not on the kneeling.
