Heaven on Earth
What does it mean when we say that God is sovereign? It means that God is ultimately in control. Nothing happens without His permission.
No Pain, No Gain.
The Christian life is the greatest life there is. God takes a life that was empty and aimless and, worst of all, headed to a certain judgment, and he turns it around and transforms it. That is more than enough right there. But in addition, he removes the guilt that haunted us, fills the emptiness inside of us and literally takes residence in our heart. This all comes as a result of the gospel believed and followed.
The Star of Revelation
Just think of the power of God's words. In the beginning, God spoke our world and the universe into existence. When He said, "Let there be light," there was light. When Jesus was on the Sea of Galilee and a violent storm erupted, He said, "Peace, be still!" and it stopped. When Peter tried to defend Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus told him, "Put your sword in its place. . . . Do you think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He will provide Me with more than twelve legions of angels
To Enlarge Our Hearts
Some people really get into Bible prophecy, attending every Bible prophecy conference and reading every Bible prophecy book.

When Crisis Comes

Best-Dressed
Everyone wants to look their best on their wedding day. It is not the day for the groom to wear his comfortable T-shirt with holes in it. Nor will a bride stop by Taco Bell on the way to the ceremony and wolf down a burrito in her beautiful, immaculate wedding gown.
Music to Our Ears
The Bible refers to the second coming of Christ many times, from Genesis to Revelation. It is mentioned 1,800 times in the Old Testament and another 300 times in the New Testament. Statistically, one in every 25 Bible verses refers to the Second Coming. For every prophecy in the Bible about the first coming of Jesus, there are eight prophecies about the second coming of Jesus. One message is clear in Scripture: Christ will come back again to this earth.
Spiritual Adultery
On more than one occasion in Scripture, the church is compared to a bride—and Jesus is the Groom. One day, there will be a heavenly wedding, and the church will be presented to Him.
Getting Through the Storms of Life
Are you facing a "storm of life" right now? By that I mean, are you facing some kind of crisis or unexpected tragedy? Are you losing hope?
