A natural world out of natural order

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-7i7s8-14bc920 Let us focus our prayers on order being restored in this world, on the idolatry of creation being replaced with true worship of the one true God, on mankind awakening to the value of mankind and the reason for that value.  The originally intended natural order of this world will return completely one day,…

The call to victory requires a call to battle

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-8qsf8-14b2db2 Esther, Mordecai, and the Jews of their time certainly had their flaws.  Yet, God used them in a mighty way, and we are still talking about it today.  For them, the question was simple.  Would they be willing to face death individually and corporately in order to try and save themselves from annihilation?  They…

Castles made of sand

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-ymubz-14a9bf4 We serve a God who is a creator, a builder.  It is no surprise that He calls us to build as well.  If we are wise, we will follow the Lord’s counsel to build on the solid rock.  Not only that, but we will build with good spiritual stones and not with grains of…

No one stands alone

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-8ktcp-148e1fd The truth is simple; we were made for one another. No one can go it alone. There is no such thing as a 1-on-1 relationship with God yet without his people. His word does not leave room for that. In God’s kingdom, you must be part of the Church to be part of him.

To hear or to listen

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-4kpr8-1473bee As we walk out our salvation with fear and trembling, we have a responsibility to make sure that we have subscribed to the truth.  We do not take the words we hear in teachings and simply accept them.  We are to take what we are taught and compare it to the word of God…
