Look for His Coming
In the last days evil ministers will infiltrate the church in an effort to put the bride to sleep. They will attempt to take away our heart of love for Christ, and we must resist.
Dirt on Our Feet
When we see sin in our fellow believers, we are to take up God’s mercy and go to that hurting one. We are to help him with the correcting, healing, washing, comforting Word of God.
The Great Healer and Lord
Every person in the world needs someone stronger than us. We need a savior and deliverer. We need Jesus. Jesus has reconciled our relationship with God.
