John 16:7 “Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you.” Happy news is always a joy to hear. And much of our Lord Jesus’ teachings were helpful and encouraging. However, He had to explain […]
John 15:16 “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain.” We’re living in a hyper-connected world where we can reach anyone at any time with the touch of a button. But we still seem to be more disconnected […]

History tells us that most early civilizations were developed beside water bodies. Water is one […]
Acts 4:12 “No one else can save us. Indeed, we can be saved only by the power of the one named Jesus and not by any other person.” The dictionary defines salvation as, “preservation or deliverance from harm, ruin, or loss”. But the Bible defines it as so much more. It is a free gift […]
