A call to venture beyond the ordinary, to embrace the difficult for the sake of the extraordinary. This concept isn't new ...read more

Christians today can’t get side-tracked thinking about the finish line, because the race is NOT finished for us yet! We must faithfully endure life and continue to tell people about Jesus UNTIL we are face to face with Him!

But let us never forget that we can be so smart and know the Bible but not actually live out, we would be just fooling ourselves and mocking God. James 1:22 tells us, “do not merely listen to the Word but live it out!” So, ...read more

The Bible does not address the question directly, but this morning I want to examine some of the relevant passages to answer this ...read more
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:6-8
As we imitate Paul’s behaviour, and as we learn from the faith and life of our Christian brothers and sisters, the result is a community of people who resemble Christ. Jesus showed us what it’s like to be fully human and to be right with God.
We are not citizens of the world. Is that a surprise? Not if you’re a Christian. Paul says in Philippians 3:15-21 that we do not belong to the environment in which we live. We live elsewhere. Our citizenship is in heaven. We need to know which realm we are citizens of, because the answer ...read more
