"Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is" (Heb. 10:25) For most of us who have grown up in the church system, the church has been our spiritual foundation. It has defined our identity and served as the platform for much of our Christian activity. We looked to it for... Continue Reading →
Defilement of Spirit
"Beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God" (2 Cor. 7:1) Being perfected in holiness is a high mark of every son of God.

“All Things”

Its reoccurrence in the word of God should leave no doubt of the finality of God's divine program. The phrase is mentioned in reference to: origin, existence and end. Of origin: “for by Him were ALL... Continue Reading →
“No Heartbeat – No Mercy”

The Angel of the Lord
In our previous message we reflected on the archangel through whose voice the Lord descends from heaven (1 Thes. 4:16).
