    When serving God’s people is no longer viewed as a privilege, man has a tendency to corrupt spiritual leadership.

    1. Spiritual leadership is NOT something one takes upon himself. a. It’s a privilege, a stewardship God entrusts to men & women in overseeing the ministry of His flock. 1 Peter 4:10 As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. ...read more

    In a world hungry for meaning, hungry for joy, hungry for hope, we must share the story of Christ and His Church.

    Monday of 4th week of Easter In Palestine, sheep have been for dozens of generations the basis of animal husbandry. Sheep produce milk and wool–they are not used for meat. Sheep are also pretty stupid, so they need shepherds to keep them from getting into trouble and being killed. Every night ...read more

    The law of gleaning demonstrates God's provision for the poor who are required to make a diligent effort as opposed to the welfare system that exist in our day.

    Ruth 2:15-18 KJV And when she was risen up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, Let her glean even among the sheaves, and reproach her not: 16 And let fall also some of the handfuls of purpose for her, and leave them, that she may glean them, and rebuke her not. 17 So she gleaned in ...read more

    We have seen the signs. "Will Work For Food". Would it be unreasonable to suggest "Must Work For Food"?

    Some have suggested that the able bodied poor should perform some sort of work or community service to receive benefits. Of course, others have opposed it. FDR created the CCC and WPA which were pretty much working welfare programs. Indeed, it was a fulltime job and not easy labor. Lev_19:10 ...read more

    The events described in Revelation Chapter 6 describe the terrors that will come upon the earth. The lost are like sheep without a shepherd about to face this horrid time. We must bring them to Jesus before it is too late.

    Bible prophecy is not preached in a majority of churches today. The sad fact is that a lot of "churches" don't bother to preach from the Bible but are more than happy to cater to the unholy trinity of "me, myself, and I". They are in the business of people pleasing and ...read more
