~ THE HOPE OF THE CHURCH ~ GEORGE H. WARNOCK INTRODUCTION We believe the hour has come when the saints should know and understand, at least in part, the meaning of Israel’s annual Feasts, for they constitute a very beautiful type and pattern for the Church. There is a time and a season for the […]

There has been a lot of discussion and debate on the blogs I have visited lately, and no little heat generated, on both sides of the issue of baptismal regeneration.

Here are a few of the truths we all should be in agreement on as Christ followers… Romans 14:17 For the Kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Mark 12:28-31 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that […]
The Call to Be the Body of Christ, Rather Than To “Attend” Something It has become more and more obvious to God’s Chosen, worldwide, that the typical expression of what is known as “church” has been influenced by the enemy, and through worldly culture.

By A.W. Tozer All unannounced and mostly undetected there has come in modern times a new cross into popular evangelical circles.
