The Grand Chasm

Contributed by Jeff Hatos on Aug 19, 2018

Jesus spoke of a chasm between heaven and hell in His parable of Lazarus and the Rich man. Was the chasm meant as just a parable or does it really exist?

At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man's table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores. The time ...read more

Investing For The Long Term

Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 25, 2018

Unlike the crowds on Palm Sunday, who hailed Jesus as king but only days later demanded that he be crucified, we need to hold on to our faith and hope in Christ. Here's why and how.

Living In The Kingdom Of God

Contributed by Neal Nybo on Apr 23, 2018

The Kindom is the first thing Jesus chooses to preach. He taught it consistently for three years and it was the final thing he told his disciples. It must be important.

Does Jesus have a slogan? Everyone else does. Even if you don’t wear Nike shoes most of us know Nike wants us to Just Do It. Of course, Disneyland is the happiest place on earth. And Jesus wants to be sure we know, …? What? To be fair, his slogan hasn’t been on TV and billboards constantly. On the ...read more

Genesis 25:7-10 - Hereafter Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jul 27, 2011

The thing that really strikes me about Genesis 25 is a clear reference to the HEREAFTER.
