It is my sincere desire that people would understand what God has written to us in the bible. Frighteningly God’s end time plan includes a lot of terror on earth. It is also my heartfelt wish that each individual would surrender himself under the protection of God. God has provided a way of escape from these increasingly terrible events on earth. By the power of God to raise people from the dead, every believer in Jesus Christ since his own resurrection will be raised from their graves and then lifted up to heaven along with every other living Christian. This is describing the ...

The book of Isaiah is considered by the Jews to be the most important of all the prophecies, not only for its volume but also for the content found within it. It was separated from the rest of the prophetical books into its own scroll. Apparently, the Lord feels like it is very important too because it is quoted directly at least sixty-six times in the New Testament and twenty of the twenty-seven New Testament writers reinforce their message by quoting Isaiah. Its value can be illustrated by a number of things. First, only Psalms contains more predictions of Christ than does Isaiah. In ...

But unlike commentaries, this book gives us knowledge to undergird our Pentecostal experience.

Nick Neely chronicles his 650-mile trek on foot from San Diego to San Francisco, following the route of the first overland Spanish expedition into what was soon called Alta California.

We can go on a treasure hunt in the Bible, to not only know more about our Lord Jesus Christ, but also God’s plan and purpose for the body of Christ. We will find that when we understand the word of God rightly divided we can function properly, by His life working in and through us. “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us” (2 Cor. 4:7). There is a supernatural interaction that takes place between the word of God and His Spirit in us when we believe it.

El budismo, rama de la filosofía, ocupa un lugar central en el conjunto de la obra de Borges. La percepción del cosmos como un laberinto o una paradoja, la negación del Yo, el cuestionamiento a la concepción occidental del tiempo y la singular noción de que el mundo es una ficción y la realidad un sueño, entre otras ideas, cruzan los ensayos, cuentos y poemas del autor desde sus textos más tempranos y son la particular reformulación con fines literarios de algunos de los nodos centrales de esta doctrina.

Satan wants there to be cliques, factions, and denominations, but God wants us to have unity (1 Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:1-6). Satan knows the strategy of divide and conquer. This problem occurs when members of the body of Christ do not follow Paul to follow the risen Lord Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 11:1). God had some hidden wisdom and power in the cross that He kept secret from Satan and mankind until He saved Paul. Our ministry is not about us, but about what Christ accomplished by His death on the cross for our sins and resurrection. Our goal is to save the lost and share the ...
