The New Breed

One of the most tragic statements in the Bible is Philippians 2:19-21:

But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you shortly, so that I also may be encouraged when I learn of your condition.

For I have no one else of kindred spirit who will genuinely be concerned for your welfare.  For they all seek after their own interests, not those of Christ Jesus.

From Weeping to Rejoicing

This week we will address a couple of basic principles on how we can make disciples of ethnic groups, and teach them to observe all that the Lord commanded. I will use the African ethnic group in what we address here, mostly because they are the ethnic group that I have a heart for, and have...

Healing the Nations

The Great Commission was to "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations,” not just individuals, “baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you...” (Matthew 28:18-19) .

The Great Deception

Our study of the end times is for the purpose of not only knowing what is going to come to pass, but to be prepared for it. For this reason we will seek to go a little deeper in our understanding of the stronghold of racism, which Scripture indicates to be one of the major forces bringing...

The Deadly Enemy

In the next verse of the Lord’s discourse concerning the end of the age, and after saying there will be “wars and rumors of wars” (Matthew 24:6) He speaks of the issue that will cause most of the wars and conflicts. "For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom...” (Matthew 24:7...

Rumors of Reality

In the next verse of the Lord’s discourse concerning the end of the age, He says: "And you will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end” (Matthew 24:6). We must consider that the Lord says this right after...

The Greater Message

Last week we discussed the basis of all true spiritual discernment. This week, as we begin our study of the most famous of all of the biblical prophecies concerning the end of this age in Matthew 24, we immediately begin to see why having discernment is so critical. And as He was sitting on the...

I pray that you will draw much closer to Him this year, and come to know His ways and His voice much better. I also pray that you will be changed more into His image by seeing more of His glory...
