Podcasts about his church

Rev. James Yonkers, pastor at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Danville, IL, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Lutheran Service Book #332, “Savior of the Nations, Come.” Written in the 300s by Ambrose of Milan, this hymn teaches us to pray that Jesus would come to us as the Savior. He made His home among us in His incarnation, and He still makes His home with us in His Church. The hymn speaks of the humble work of Jesus as the Word made flesh. Fully God, He became fully man when He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. Jesus ran His course for our salvation through the humility of suffering and death and into the exaltation of resurrection and ascension. Because the Son of God has won this victory in our flesh, we pray for His coming and abide in the light of His Word. “The Hymns of Advent'' is a series on Sharper Iron that looks at a variety of the hymns found in the Advent section Lutheran Service Book. The season of Advent prepares us for Christ's coming. The hymns of Advent teach that this is more than getting ready for Christmas; the Word of the Lord sung in hymnody helps us to receive Christ as He comes to us now in the means of grace and when He comes again in glory on the Last Day.

Thanks-giving should be at the heart of every believer confessing Jesus as their savior because it connects us on a more authentic level with His presence.

Examining Jesus' very words, Dr. Youssef emphasizes how our Lord addresses our current spiritual circumstances through these ancient texts of Scripture. Containing invaluable lessons for every believer, Letters from Jesus is a clarion call from Christ to His Church living in the 21st century.

Readings: Isaiah 2:1–5 Psalm 122:1–9 Romans 13:11–14 Matthew 24:37–44 Jesus exaggerates in today's Gospel when He claims not to know the day or the hour when He will come again. Christ occasionally makes such overstatements to drive home a point we might otherwise miss (see Matthew 5:34; 23:9; Luke 14:26). His point here is that the exact “hour” is not important. What is crucial is that we not postpone our repentance, that we be ready for Him—spiritually and morally—when He comes. For He will surely come, He tells us—like a thief in the night, like the flood in the time of Noah. In today's Epistle, Paul too compares the present age to a time of advancing darkness and night. Though we sit in the darkness, overshadowed by death, we have seen arise the great light of our Lord who has come into our midst (see Matthew 4:16; John 1:9; 8:12). He is the true light, the life of the world. And His light continues to shine in His Church, the new Jerusalem promised by Isaiah in today's First Reading. In the Church, all nations stream to the God of Jacob, to worship and seek wisdom in the House of David. From the Church goes forth His word of instruction, the light of the Lord—that all might walk in His paths toward that eternal day when night will be no more (see Revelation 22:5). By our Baptism we have been made children of the light and day (see Ephesians 5:8; 1 Thessalonians 5:5–7). It is time we start living like it: throwing off the fruitless works of darkness, rejecting the desires of the flesh, and walking by the light of His grace. The hour is late as we begin a new Advent. Let us begin again in this Eucharist. As we sing in today's Psalm, “let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.” Let us give thanks to His name, keeping watch for His coming, knowing that our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.

Come Follow Me Old Testament Bible Jonah; Micah Jonah gets swallowed up by an USO (unidentified submerged object) described by the biblical writers as a "big fish" due to their ancient limited vocabulary. Jonah's experience entering the USO for three days before exiting, prefigures Jesus Christ entering death for three days before rising. Jonah preaches the shortest and yet most powerful sermon in history. All the people immediately repent, and God saves the city. Jonah learns an important lesson concerning God's love for people, including Israel's enemies. Micah preaches of the apostasy and restoration of the Gospel. Micah prophesies similar to Isaiah that the temple of God will be built in the latter days, and that all nations shall flow unto it.

God designed His Church to be a family -- a body of people who love, mentor, support, and freely give to one another. We're called to be others-focused, not self-focused. All that we have is ultimately God's, and how we give back to Him is reflected in how we show His love toward other people.

Here's a truth we should give a little more consideration, thanksgiving is a heart acknowledgment of something someone did for us. For the born again, thanksgiving is a spiritual force that connects us to more of our Lord's grace.

Pope Leo XIII's 4th Encyclical on the Holy Rosary VI È BEN NOTO ENCYCLICAL OF POPE LEO XIII ON THE ROSARY AND PUBLIC LIFE*   To the Bishops of Italy. Venerable Brethren, You know how We place amid present dangers Our confidence in the Glorious Virginof the Holy Rosary, for the safety and prosperity of Christendom and the peaceand tranquillity of the Church. Mindful that in moments of great trial, pastors and people have ever had recourse with entire confidence to the august Mother of God, in whose hands are all graces, certain too, that devotion to Our Lady of the Rosary is most opportune for the needs of these times, We have desired to revive everywhere this devotion, and to spread it far and wide among the faithful of the world. Often times already We, in recommending the pious practice of devoting October to honouring Our Lady, have pointed out Our reasons and hope for so doing, and the forms to be observed; and the entire Church, docile to Our desires, has ever replied by special manifestations of devotion; and now is making ready to pay to Mary, during a whole month, a daily tribute of thedevotion so dear to it. In such pious rivalry Italy has not been behind-hand, for devotion to Our Lady is deeply and widely rooted in this land; and We doubt not that this year too, Italy will set a glorious example of love for the august Mother of God, and will give Us fresh reasons for consolation and hope. Nevertheless We cannot do less than address to you, Venerable Brethren, a few words of exhortation, so that with particular and renewed zeal the month dedicated to the Most Holy Virgin of the Rosary may be sanctified in every diocese of Italy. 2. It is easy to imagine what reasons We have for doing this. Since God called Us to govern His Church on earth, We have sought to use every possible means that We deemed suitable, for the sanctification of souls and the extension of the reign of Jesus Christ. We have excepted from Our daily solicitude no nationand no people, mindful that Our Redeemer shed His precious blood on the Cross and opened the reign of grace and of glory for all. None, however, can be surprised that We showed special care for the Italian people, for Our Divine Master Jesus Christ chose, from out all the world, Italy to be the seat of His Vicar on earth, and in His providential designs appointed Rome to be the capitalof the Catholic world. On this account the Italian people is called upon to live close to the Father of the whole Christian family, and to share in a special way in his sorrows and his glory. Unfortunately We find in Italy much to sadden Our souls. Faith and Christian morals, the precious inheritance be queathed by Our ancestors, and in all past rimes the glory of Our country and of Italy's great ones, are being attacked artfully and in covert ways, or even openly, with cynicism that is revolting, by a handful of men who seek to rob others of that faith and morality they have themselves lost. In this more especially is seen the work of the sects, and of those who are more or less their willing tools. Above all, in this city of Rome, where Christ's Vicar has his See are their efforts concentrated and their diabolical designs displayed with ferocious obstinacy. 3. We need not tell you, Venerable Brethren, with what bitterness Our soul is filled at seeing the danger there is for the salvation of so many of Our beloved children. And Our sorrow is greater because We find it impossible to oppose such great evil with that salutary efficacity We would desire and that We have the right to use, for you know, Venerable Brethren, and all the world knows, the state to which we are reduced. On this account We feel a still greater desire to call upon the Mother of God and to ask her help. Let all good Italians pray for their misguided brethren, for their common Father the Roman Pontiff, that God, in His infinite mercy, may hear and answer the prayers of a father and his sons. And Our most lively and sure hope is placed in the Queen of the Rosary, who has shown herself, since she has been invoked by that title, so ready to help the Church and Christian peoples in their necessities. Already have We recorded these glories and the great triumphs won over the Albigenses and other powerful enemies, glories and triumphs which have not only profited the Church, afflicted and persecuted, but also the temporal welfare of peoples and nations. Why in this hour of need should We not behold again such marvels of the power and goodness of the august Virgin, for the good of the Church and its Head, and of the whole Christian world, if the faithful only revive, on their part, the magnificent examples of piety given by their fore fathers, under similar circumstances? And to make this most powerful Queen more and more propitious, We would honour her more and more in the invocation of the Rosary, and increase this devotion. And to this end We have made a double of the second class for all the Church of the Feast of the Rosary. And for the same purpose We ardently desire the Catholics of Italy, with lively faith, especially during this month of October, to invoke this august Virgin and to do loving violence to her mother's heart, and to pray to her for the triumph of the Church and the Apostolic See, for the liberty of the Vicar of Jesus Christ on earth, and for peace and public prosperity. And since the effects of such prayers will be proportionate to the dispositions of those offering them, We ardently exhort you, venerable brethren, to devote all your care and zeal to kindle among those committed to your charge a strong, living, and active faith, and to call on all to return by penance to grace and to the faithful fulfilment of all their duties. Among such duties, considering the state of the times, must be reckoned as paramount an open and sincere profession of the faith and teaching of Jesus Christ, casting aside all human respect, and considering before all things the interest of religion and the salvation of souls. It cannot be concealed that, although thanks to the mercy of God religious feeling is strong and widely spread among Italians, nevertheless by the evil influence of men and the times religious indifference is on the increase, and hence there is a lessening of that respect and filial love for the Church which was the glory of our ancestors and in which they placed their highest ambition. Let it be your work, venerable brethren, to revive this Christian feeling among your people, an interest in the Catholic cause, a confidence in Our Lady's help, and a spirit of prayer. It is certain that the august Queen, invoked thus well by her many sons, would deign to hear their prayer, console Us in Our sorrow, and crown Our efforts for the Church and for Italy, by granting better times to both. With these desires, We bestow on you, venerable brethren, and the clergy and people committed to your care, the Apostolic Benediction as a promise of graces and favours of the highest kind from heaven.

The prophet addresses the complaint and temptation of many Christians: “What point is there in being faithful to the Lord? We suffer, but the arrogant and proud unbelievers prosper!” Let us renounce all such thoughts. Though we may suffer in this life as Christ's faithful Christians, there will be a day in which we who have hoped in Christ will be vindicated. Christ's suffering is the source of an eternal life with God in Christ. Shall we, therefore, spurn suffering in our own lives for the sake of Christ? By no means. Colossians 1:13-20: Christ is confessed to be the Father's faithful Son. He redeemed us by His blood and He is the head of all things for the sake of His Church. He has made peace with God for us by the blood of His cross. Luke 23:27-43: This year, the last Sunday in the Church Year presents a scene from the Passion of Our Lord that is often neglected: the daughters of Jerusalem mourn, weep, and lament as Jesus carries His cross to Calvary. As we look forward to Christ's Second Coming at the end of the Church Year, we remember that He is “King of Kings and Lord of Lords” by virtue of His suffering and death upon the cross. It is precisely in His suffering and death that He inaugurated His kingdom. When He comes again in glory, His body will still bear the marks of His suffering in His hands and His side. The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world is always and eternally at the center of our faith and worship. The highest worship of God in this life is to mourn and lament one's sin in true contrition and repentance and to long to hear and receive His Word of absolution. Indeed, in this portion of the Passion, Jesus prays for those who crucified Him, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.” His prayer upon the cross foreshadowed how He continues to intercede for us in heaven until His Second Coming. On the day of His return, we shall hear Him say to us the same thing that He said to the malefactor who hung next to Him: “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”Support the show-----Trinity Lutheran Church, School and Child Care have been "Making Known the Love of Christ" in Sheboygan, Wisconsin and throughout the world since 1853 as a congregation gathering around God's Word and Sacraments to receive forgiveness and life everlasting.

When we get used to something, it's difficult to change direction. But when we choose to maintain an environment of change, we position ourselves for a higher level of influence.

Jesus Christ is Lord of His Blood-Bought Church Today we will see that the Founder and Owner of the Big ‘C' Church is Jesus Christ. We will also see that all little ‘c' churches like the one in Colossae are called to continue to be what our Founder expects us to be! Read Colossians 1:18-23 Jesus Christ is Lord of His blood-bought Church! Let's Pray! In the New Testament letters, which covers the Book of Romans through the letter to Jude, often the passages interlink with each other like a links in a chain. Jesus Christ is Lord of His Church V. 18 For a human body to be functional every member must respond to instructions from its brain, its head. For the church body to be functional we must remember who our leader is – Jesus! The Big ‘C' Church will never stop existing, and the members of it will one day live on the new earth with new bodies forever. But little ‘c' churches can and do cease to exist. That's why when Jesus spoke to another church from Asia Minor, the Ephesian church that Jesus spoke to in Rev. Ch. 2, He told them if they didn't repent He would remove their lampstand. Jesus always needs to have first place in His Church and churches. Jesus Christ is the Reconciler of All and the Redeemer of His Church V. 19-22 It is finished! -John 19:30 Tetelestai! For there is One God, and there is One Mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all… 1 Timothy 2:5-6a Here Paul in verse 22 says the consequence of being in Christ and possessing His righteousness is that in God's eyes Christians are as holy, blameless, and above reproach as Jesus Christ Himself is! Jesus Christ has a specific purpose for His Big ‘C' Church and little ‘c' churches V. 23 He is telling us here what is true of every member of the Big C church and is expected of every member of the little ‘c' churches like the one in Colossae. It is understood that true Christians will “continue in the faith” and preach Jesus. Perseverance in believing is one of the fruits of the new birth experience (initiated by God) we obtain when “by grace we are saved through faith.” Progress in Christian behavior is also fruit – not perfection yet, but progress. We continue to make progress now, however imperfect, toward the positional perfection we already have in Christ and can never lose.

ABOUT THE EPISODEActs 8-12 brings fresh and needed reminders that no heart is too hard for God's grace to soften. He extends grace, mercy, and forgiveness to everyone…and so must we! Be comforted and challenged by these reminders. We clearly see in Scripture nothing–no election, no life circumstance, not you, and not me–can hinder the plans of our God.BIG IDEASBig Idea #1: From Persecutor to Preacher. There is beauty and power in one encounter with Christ–even in the hardest of hearts. Saul, a religious terrorist, was changed on the road to Damascus and began preaching the good news. What road did God find you on?Big Idea #2: The Gospel (Good News) is for everyone – even the Gentiles. Peter was listening to the Spirit and, therefore, able to obey with an opportunity to extend the good news, breaking down cultural barriers along the way. Big Idea #3: James martyred, Peter rescued, and Herod dies. Persecution will never silence the Word of God and will never defeat or overcome His Church.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to encourage, equip, and empower women with the Word of God. Cherie's life-long passion is two-fold: knowing Jesus Christ and making Him known.

Today Pastor Rich Wilkerson concludes our collection of talks, Seven: Revelations of Jesus for His Church.   In this message, “When God Knocks,” we study the final of the seven churches in Laodicea. Although externally they were prosperous, internally they were spiritually bankrupt. Jesus corrects them in love, and invites them back to relationship with him. In the same way, God is knocking on the door of our hearts. The question is, will we open?   Don't miss NEXT Sunday, Vision Sunday, as we look ahead to where we believe God is leading us, with a special vision presentation from Pastors Rich & DawnCheré. Now, let's lean into the message together.

In this sermon, we continued to look at God’s design for His Church and how our fellowship with one another is connected to our worship. In the New Testament, God uses the Greek word "koinonia" to describe the community within the Church. The koinonia is a community of close mutual relationships, in which people share possessions and partner in living the mission of Jesus in everyday life. In Acts 2, the believers experienced the overwhelming love of Jesus in a way that compelled them to eagerly desire to give that love to others. This created a koinonia community where they had everything in common: they shared life, they shared struggles, and they shared resources. When we are devoted to the koinonia, our giving will be generous, our receiving will be grateful, and both will be done as acts of worship. A church devoted to the fellowship is a church engaged in worship and living the mission in everyday life.

Living an Intentional Life means joining God in His agenda. We first identify His call on our life. Then, we invest in what matters - what is eternal. After this, we begin to intercede - pray for others and ask God to do miracles in our lives as well as in the lives of others. Next, we inform those around us about God's Good News and finally, we invite others to Jesus and to be a part of His Church. Let's not become distracted in our noisy world today, but let's be bold and live intentional lives for the glory of our great God!

Dear Friend,As we continue to meditate on the Corporal Works of Mercy, it is interesting to note that a good portion of the Church's teaching about them is contained in the Catechism's section on the Commandments and, particularly, on the Seventh Commandment: “You shall not steal.” Let us see how almsgiving fits into this category.Almsgiving — not to mention the other Corporal Works of Mercy — is considered an act of justice as opposed to an act of mere charity. Almsgiving is closely tied to our duty to love our neighbor.  The Catechism teaches that “Love for the poor is even one of the motives for the duty of working so as to be able to give to those in need” (CCC #2444).  The text continues with a quotation from the Church Father, Saint John Chrysostom, who wrote: “Not to enable the poor to share in our goods is to steal from them and deprive them of life. The goods we possess are not ours but theirs.” (CCC #2446)It should be clarified that almsgiving — a requirement for being a disciple of Christ — is different from tithing. Tithing is offering God the first fruits of our labor — of our earnings — giving a regular percentage of our earnings to God and the Church. It is fulfilling our duty to God and His Church.Almsgiving, on the other hand, is fulfilling our duty toward our neighbor and our community.  That being said, almsgiving is charitable giving above and beyond our regular tithe. In the Bible, almsgiving is also tied to making amends for sins.  In Sirach 3:30 it says: “As water quenches a flaming fire, so almsgiving atones for sins.” Similarly, in the book of Daniel 4:27, King Nebuchadnezzar is told to “Redeem your sins by almsgiving and your iniquity by generosity to the poor.”Jesus, during one of his meals at a Pharisee's house, as part of his challenges to his fellow diners, added: “But as to what is within, give alms, and behold, everything will be clean for you” (Luke 11:41).With all of this in mind, we come to our weekly challenge: Develop a plan for almsgiving and discuss it with your family/spouse. It could be placing a jar at the entrance of your home into which everyone in your family contributes spare change and then periodically donates the money to a local crisis pregnancy center or other charitable organization. You could donate the funds from your bottle returns to charity. You could also simply go over your budget with your spouse and decide on an amount to contribute to charity beyond your regular tithe.  Until next week, may God bless you, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.+ Earl BoyeaBishop of Lansing

In this 8-part series, Dr. Michael Youssef preaches through the seven letters to the seven churches in Revelation. Examining Jesus' very words, Dr. Youssef emphasizes how our Lord addresses our current spiritual circumstances through these ancient texts of Scripture. Containing invaluable lessons for every believer, Letters from Jesus is a clarion call from Christ to His Church living in the 21st century.

 There are signs of the Lord's coming all around: the cross that marks His Church, the violence and death of the sinful world, and the shaking of the natural order. “There will be great distress upon the earth” (Luke 21:23), but the faithful know that “the kingdom of God is near” (Luke 21:31). Therefore, “straighten up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near” (Luke 21:28). Be awake and alert, and heed the words of Christ, which “will not pass away” (Luke 21:33). For you, “the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings” (Mal. 4:2). He sends His preachers of repentance in the spirit and power of Elijah “before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes” (Mal. 4:5), in order to “direct your hearts to the love of God and to the steadfastness of Christ” (2 Thess. 3:5). Although you are often faithless, “the Lord is faithful,” and by the preaching of His Word “he will establish you and guard you against the evil one” (2 Thess. 3:3). Therefore, “do not grow weary in doing good” (2 Thess. 3:13). In the midst of calamity, believe upon the Lord, Jesus Christ.-----Trinity Lutheran Church, School and Child Care have been "Making Known the Love of Christ" in Sheboygan, Wisconsin and throughout the world since 1853 as a congregation gathering around God's Word and Sacraments to receive forgiveness and life everlasting.

Great Shakings Bring Man-child Revival (6) (Audio) David Eells - 11/9/22 Man-child Coming to “Pick up” His Bride and Judge the Nations Gabby Dibble - 1/8/22 (David's notes in red) The very nature of this dream seemed like a strong shift was taking place, larger than what we would call average. (Gabby whose name means, “God is my strength” or “Woman of God” represents the Bride in this dream.) I dreamed I was getting out of my car and as I looked up at the sky. I saw an eye and also another part of a face next to each other. It was God's eye and Jesus' face. (Curt Bryan had a dream of a giant eyeball up in the sky watching everything he did. Pro. 15:3 The eyes of Jehovah are in every place, Keeping watch upon the evil and the good.) Within seconds the scene became very clear. The moment I saw the faces forming, I had this deep feeling it was going to be them. As the faces formed, one looked angry while the other was without an expression. The face without expression (God's face) was slightly above and more towards my right of the other, while the other (Jesus' face) was slightly below more towards my left. (The Lord is coming again as a Lion and this time He will judge His Church. Isa. 31:4 For thus saith Jehovah unto me, As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey, if a multitude of shepherds be called forth against him, will not be dismayed at their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so will Jehovah of hosts come down to fight upon mount Zion, and upon the hill thereof.) I could not tell you what they looked like as the memory has been taken from me, but their faces were in the clouds. It was in the afternoon or evening time. The (angry) face didn't seem to be looking directly toward me but rather the world. After I glanced at the faces, it began to get dark outside very quick. (The darkness  is beginning to cover the earth leading up to the 7 year Tribulation.) I took my mom outside because I wanted to show her what I saw. I said, “Mom, mom, I had an open vision!” But as I tried to share it with her, she kept changing the subject before I could tell her. (The apostate mother Church is what we are born out of. The apostate leadership and it's followers do not have an ear to hear what the Spirit says.) When I had taken her outside, the sky looked different. The moon was huge, low, red, and divided into four equal parts cut out and spaced a little apart. (In Joseph's dream the moon represented his mother who was a type of the Church in Gen. 37:9-11. God divides the Church into 4 parts in the parable of the sower, where 3 out of 4 fell away and only one part bore fruit.) I said something about repentance and that it's time to get right with God. I had the fear of the Lord like never before but my mom pretty much ignored me. (The apostates will not be granted repentance because the Lord must tribulate them first. Some will repent in the first 3 1/2 years of the Tribulation and some won't.) I remember my oldest brother, Nathan, was going to come pick me up and I was going to stay with him. (Nathan, the first born brother, means, “Gift from God” and he represents the Man-child reformers who are coming for the Bride. Rom. 8:29 For whom he foreknew, he also foreordained to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.) I had a suitcase packed and, as I waited for him. (Representing being ready to go into the wilderness tribulation.) I was talking with a man and a woman outside my house. I kept sharing this open vision with them and I said, “Jesus is angry with the people. We have to repent and turn back before it's too late because He's coming soon.” I felt, strongly, He wasn't happy with the Church and the majority of Christians because we weren't fully surrendered and living for Him and with Him. As I was talking, things outside got very interesting and people became more dangerous. It's as if, in the very short time that had passed in this dream, I was aware that the atmosphere had shifted. (Things and people are becoming increasingly evil at a faster and faster pace now. Isa. 60:2 For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the peoples; but Jehovah will arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.) A car even drove up and hit the guy I had been speaking with and I was worried he was going to get run over and drug under the wheels of the car but he was able to walk away. (God will spare many from calamity who are listening to the Bride. They will be granted repentance and be able to walk away from the evil of others who want to “drag them down" with them.) People around me seemed more corrupt than ever. I saw a women who represented my mom and she wanted to commit adultery against my father. (Hos. 2:2-5 Contend with your mother, contend; for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband; and let her put away her whoredoms from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts; 3 lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and slay her with thirst. 4 Yea, upon her children will I have no mercy; for they are children of whoredom; 5 for their mother hath played the harlot; she that conceived them hath done shamefully; for she said, I will go after my lovers…) I then remember I was warning Leanna (my sister) about what I had seen. She seemed like she was half way listening to me. (Leanna means, “Gracious and merciful”. She represents the “little sister” in Sos 8:8-9 We have a little sister, And she hath no breasts: What shall we do for our sister In the day when she shall be spoken for? 9 If she be a wall, We will build upon her a turret of silver: And if she be a door, We will inclose her with boards of cedar. She represents the elect of God that will come out of apostasy to follow the Man-child and Bride in the wilderness tribulation. God will be gracious and merciful to them and grant them repentance and give them ears to hear.) I was telling her I was pregnant and waiting for Nathan to pick me up. (This represents the woman who is pregnant with the Man-child and about to give birth in Rev. 12:1-6 And a great sign was seen in heaven: a woman arrayed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars; 2 and she was with child; and she crieth out, travailing in birth, and in pain to be delivered. 3 And there was seen another sign in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his heads seven diadems. 4 And his tail draweth the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon standeth before the woman that is about to be delivered, that when she is delivered he may devour her child. 5 And she was delivered of a son, a man child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and unto his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that there they may nourish her a thousand two hundred and threescore days.) As my brother Nathan came in his black car to pick me up, other people from my house blocked off his car in the road because they viewed us as “running away”. They wanted us to wait with them instead of us leaving. (Psa. 18:6-17 In my distress I called upon Jehovah, And cried unto my God: He heard my voice out of his temple, And my cry before him came into his ears. 7 Then the earth shook and trembled; The foundations also of the mountains quaked And were shaken, because he was wroth. 8 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, And fire out of his mouth devoured: Coals were kindled by it. 9 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; And thick darkness was under his feet. 10 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly; Yea, he soared upon the wings of the wind. 11 He made darkness his hiding-place, his pavilion round about him, Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies. 12 At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, Hailstones and coals of fire. 13 Jehovah also thundered in the heavens, And the Most High uttered his voice, Hailstones and coals of fire. 14 And he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; Yea, lightnings manifold, and discomfited them. 15 Then the channels of waters appeared, And the foundations of the world were laid bare, At thy rebuke, O Jehovah, At the blast of the breath of thy nostrils. 16 He sent from on high, he took me; He drew me out of many waters. 17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, And from them that hated me; for they were too mighty for me.) My mom's car, my siblings father, and another vehicle were all around my brother's car as he pulled up to get me. I remember trying to think of what to do because there was some kind of urgency and I needed to make the right move. (The family of Joseph, as a type of the Man-child,  was against him at first, but ended up bowing down to him as it was with Jesus. Gen. 37:9-11 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed yet a dream: and, behold, the sun and the moon and eleven stars made obeisance to me. 10 And he told it to his father, and to his brethren; and his father rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth? 11 And his brethren envied him; but his father kept the saying in mind.)   Maturity and Sanctification Saves During Tribulation Anretta Wachira - 10/23/22 (David's notes in red) I dreamed that I was in active labour on our bed. I asked the Lord, “Am I pregnant?” He said, “The woman is travailing.” (Anretta is representing the woman Church in this dream.) I then walked to the kitchen and there was a scale. ...  I placed something that was wrapped up (Representing her fruit) onto the scale and began to count the numbers. The weight was very low. I said to myself, ”That's not enough. I find myself wanting!” (Dan. 5:27 TEKEL; thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting. The Babylonish Churches fruit does not yet measure up.) Then the scene changed and my husband Andrei, (Representing the Father.) our son, (who didn't look like our son in real life [Representing the maturing Man-child.]) and I were all sitting outside on a beautiful sunny day. We were watching children playing sports in a field. (This represents the immature Christians who are in competition in their sects and divisions.) Without any warning, chaos began to erupt. The sun got brighter and the ground started to break up. (Earthquakes come with the appearing of the Man-child. Isa. 64:1-2 Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might quake at thy presence, 2 as when fire kindleth the brushwood, and the fire causeth the waters to boil; to make thy name known to thine adversaries, that the nations may tremble at thy presence!) People were screaming and running all over the place and there was a lot of confusion. I saw my husband Andrei grab our “Son”. (Representing the Man-child being caught up to the throne after His birth.) I started to run towards them but he told me to grab the things and meet him at the top of the hill. (Representing Mt. Zion.) I wondered how I would know which hill it was as I turned to gather the things. (John 14:4-6  4 And whither I go, ye know the way. 5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; how know we the way? 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.) The ground with the grass rose up; standing taller than me. (The Man-child comes with earthquakes at the beginning of the Tribulation.) I tried to reach for our things. There was a pair of spectacles, a satchel and a book. (The “Book” represents the Word. The spectacles represent the ability to read the Word up close with clarity in order to climb Mt. Zion.) Then I thought, "I better get our medical records too, in case we need them.” (Our medical records represent the blood of Christ and the record of our good confession in Heaven that makes us exempt from the curses of the world. “By His stripes ye were healed.”) Then the scene changed again and I found myself in a chaotic hospital setting. People were shouting different things. Someone was shouting that they were exempt. Someone else was crying and screaming, saying, “But I have allergies”. (The people are begging not to be forcibly vaccinated.) Others were confined to the hospital beds crying hysterically. (Representing medical tyranny and medical martial law imposed on the masses.) There was a lady who was part of the medical personnel and she was monitoring the people's medical charts that the other medical personnel were grabbing. She was going through each chart to allow some pages in the charts but refusing for any charts to be taken away. She started going through my chart and saying, “No, you can't have that, nope, not that either”, and so on. I was getting very impatient because she was very slow and methodical in her sorting. Then, I looked down and saw a piece of paper that didn't belong to me on the ground. It had the heading, HOME SCHOOLING, on it. I picked it up and tucked it under the few papers that she had allowed me to take and I ran out of the hospital. (Homeschooling represents that we are in the world but not of it. We receive our education from the Holy Spirit.) I opened the door to a completely quiet street. It was very dark everywhere. There were people wondering all around and there was a dark blue light that glowed everywhere. People were using this blue light to see where they were going. (This dark light represents a false enlightenment. People think they are walking in light and truth but they are really deceived.) There were also beasts mingling among the people. They looked like T-Rex dinosaurs and were about as tall as a man. (Representing the Mark of the Dragon Beast authoritarian system. The Mark is 666; the number of man. These beasts were as tall as a man representing that they have come into full maturity.) I saw them stopping to smell people's arms to either devour them or let them go. Everyone seemed familiar with this and obediently stopped, raised their left arm for a sniff, and then continued to walk on. (In the dream the Mark is detected by the beasts by sniffing the left arm representing that the rebellious goats will take the Mark of the Beast in their right hand or foreheads.) I knew I was different from everyone here. A man wearing a dark blue robe that got lighter in color towards his feet, walked to the edge of the pavement in front of me. As he got to the end of the pavement, I felt one of the beast's attention lock onto me before I even saw it. I started to walk quickly towards the man with the blue robe because he had stopped and turned towards me. Just before I got to him, the beast caught up with me. My left hand went up and he sniffed it, and my hand immediately straightened out, against my will, in between his open jaw. I felt his teeth begin to crunch onto my hand. The man put his hand in front of mine in the beast's mouth and it stopped biting down. I quickly withdrew my hand and started to walk next to the man as he playfully allowed the beast to keep his hand in its mouth. (Jesus, the Man-child, will spare many from being devoured by the Beast. He traded His life in exchange for ours.) In the bushes on the left I saw a woman watching me intently. She was following us trying to hide but I was very aware of her. The beast then left us. (This woman who was intently watching the Bride and Man-child represents the little sister in Sos. 8:8. This is a corporate body of believers who will come out of apostasy to follow the Man-child and Bride into sanctification.) We turned a corner very quickly with the man leading. He pulled back a curtain and tapped on a corrugated door and said urgently, “Enter”. When I entered, I found that it was an outdoor, in ground, toilet. … and I started to use it. (Representing getting rid of waste of the old flesh life.) The woman that was following ... stood in front of my door like she was waiting to come in next. (The little sister will learn about sanctification from the Man-child and Bride.) ... I asked myself, “How will I know if it's safe to come out?” I felt that it was time to leave even though I couldn't see what was happening outside.   Dream of Outer Darkness Claire Pienaar - 11/3/22 (David's notes in red) (In this dream, Claire represents the Bride because her name means “brilliant” and the Bride's garments are bright and pure as is spoken of in Rev. 19:8 And it was given unto her that she should array herself in fine linen, bright and pure: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. (Riaan represents the Man-Child body of reformers, as his name means “little king”.) I dreamed Riaan and I were on some kind of spaceship. (This spaceship represents traveling in heavenly places in Christ.) We were in complete darkness and and it was unbelievably cold. We were traveling towards my real dad and mom's house; the house I was born in. (The first fruits are the first to come out of the apostate mother Churches' house.)  …We were there in this ... darkness to fetch one or two specific people. (The Man-child and Bride will rescue many from the cold darkness of the apostate Church.) We got to the house, and I saw a boy from my childhood there, called Simon Groom. (Many of our “childhood” peers in apostasy have still not grown up because of false doctrines that don't allow for spiritual maturity.) He looked homeless and hungry. (They are starving for the real good news of the gospel because the true Word is not being preached in the apostate churches.) I asked him, “Do you come here often?” He replied, “One or two nights a week”. (The apostate Christians think you only have to go to church one or two times a week to be okay with God and the rest of the week they live the way they want to.) As we got out of the spaceship we had to walk over massive icebergs that were cracking under the pressure of us landing the spaceship there. (The apostate Church is founded on frozen doctrines that are cold and unmoving and don't have the life of the Living Water. I call them the “Frozen Chosen.") It was still completely dark. It was intense, and I asked someone to give me a jacket and then a big, pink, full-length cloak was draped over me instantly. (The pink cloak represents being covered completely by love. Love “covers a multitude of sins”.) Everything was still dark and silent, save for the cracking of the icebergs. I could see the cracks and was concerned and did not want to be there longer than absolutely necessary. (When the Man-child and Bride arrive on the scene, the foundation of the Apostate church will crack up and be destroyed.) We were able successfully retrieve one of the people and came back into spaceship. Then the dream ended. (One will be taken and the other left.)   Man-child and Bride Protected from a Devastating Explosion Debbie Fenske - 10/15/22 (David's notes in red) I dreamed I was in a room with other people, who in the dream, I knew, but not in real life. I knew that they were not there merely for the sake of being together. Everyone was quiet, and there was a sense of anticipation in the room. I looked around and saw just a few people standing in the room. There was no talking among them. I saw two young men sitting on high stools at a high, black counter and there was a computer by them. They were working on something, like a computer component board. They both were wearing white t-shirts. The guy on the right had a little sharp pointed tool, and he was gently poking at different parts on this component board. The guy on the left was gently touching different parts with his finger. (I believe these two men represent angels sent with judgments represented by the high black countertop. They were bringing components together of this world, which resulted in an explosion, as we will see. This war is being fought by AI computer of the 5th generation, they say. The Lord, through His angels is in control of their artificial intelligence.) All of a sudden, there was an explosion that shook the room very hard. (This room represents the world.) I saw some things flying off of shelves. The people who were standing around were shaken to the point that some were falling to the floor. They had nothing protecting them from falling. Some were trying to hang on to things to keep from falling. (Representing people trusting in their own strength and worldly things to save themselves.) I looked to my right, to the opposite side of the room, and saw a young woman standing against a white wall. She was on the other side of the room away from the [rest of the people on the left]. She was dressed in blue pants and a blue blouse…(This is the Bride dressed in heavenly works standing on the right.) She had nothing to hang on to but the white wall. (Representing sanctification from the world.) She didn't fall, though I watched her being shaken pretty badly, to the point of almost falling. (She had her hope in sanctification and separation unlike the others who were trying to stand upright or holding onto whatever they could find [in their own strength].)  I was amazed that she kept standing. Then, … I saw, in my spirit, a door and it was closing. (Time is running out to prepare.) Then I heard it shut very hard, making a very loud noise. Then, there was a terrible explosion. It was a very deafening and hard explosion. It went on for many seconds. I could not see anything after the explosion. But when it stopped, there was an awful lot of smoke, and I knew that there was total destruction to the room, though I couldn't see anything. Then, though the explosion was great, and very destructive, I saw a door to my right. (Those on the right represent the sheep and the wheat, as opposed to the goats and the tares on the left.) So I opened it and walked into another room that was also full of smoke. But this room was not totally destroyed (because its inhabitants are on the right). As I kept trying to look through the smoke, I could see metal filing cabinets standing in the room. There were chairs and papers, and, other stuff thrown all around. I then saw a woman on the floor [in this partially destroyed room], (Representing the elect of God who are awakened by these explosions.) and she was trying to wake up another woman. (Representing the Apostate Church.) She was anxiously, and fearfully, shaking the woman, and talking to her, and telling her that she had to wake up. But the woman would not respond at all. (Many of God's elect will be awakened by these judgments and will then try to wake others up, but many will still not wake up spiritually, even after these things happen.) A man (Representing the Man-child reformers?) came and picked up the woman (Representing the elect of God who will wake up as a result of these judgments.) who was trying to wake up her friend. (Representing the Apostate Church.) He lifted her up off the floor, and began leading her towards the direction that I just came from. (The room that the Bride was in. The Bride then leads the virgins to the Man-child in Psalm 45.) …I kept saying to myself, "I can't believe we made it through this! I can't believe we made it through this!" Then I woke up. Before I went to bed the night before this dream, I needed to get my random verses for our morning Zoom prayer meeting. I really felt led of the Father to ask Him to give me a very pertinent verse. He gave me Psalm 91:5 (5-11, in context)  5 "You will not be afraid of the terror by night , or of the arrow that flies by day; 6 or the pestilence that stalks in darkness, or of the destruction that lays waste at noon. (Could the arrow be nuclear missiles exploding. The DS is trying to start a real war and they have the pestilence prepared.) 7 A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not approach you. 8 You will only look on with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked. 9 For you have made the Lord your refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling place. 10 No evil will befall you, nor will any plague come near your tent.11 For He will give His angels charge over you, to guard you in all your ways.   An Experience of Power Gabe Watson - 10/17/22 (David's notes in red) Yesterday, I was going through a time of what seemed like reflection. I kind of felt like my life had no purpose, kind of meaningless, I've been waiting so many years and it seems like nothing is happening. I didn't feel sad or condemned by it, rather just wondering what God's mind was on everything. So, I was just questioning what God's purposes were for me in my life and if I was missing something. I was really earnestly seeking God and wondering what am I doing?  Is there something I'm supposed to be doing that I'm missing? I don't want to waste any talents even though I don't see myself as having any great talents or anything but I know the Lord has given us some, I want to be able to use them.  Before I went to bed, me and my wife prayed to the Lord about these questions. I woke up in the middle of the night and went to lay down on the couch. As I was laying down on the couch, I don't know if I fell asleep or if I was awake to be honest. I'm assuming, I fell asleep for just a few minutes. It seemed like a dream but I could feel everything happening in my body like it was real. I could hear myself say to myself “you are such a loser” (I felt like it meant that I was not good for anything, meaningless life, etc.). ("We can do nothing without Him” but “We can do all things through Him”. His power is made perfect through our weakness.  This revelation comes before the below experience.) Immediately, after that was said, this incredible Force picked up my entire body. Not even the strongest human on Earth would be able to resist this Force. My body was powerless, as I had no control over my motor functions. However, my consciousness was still there and I was completely aware of everything that was going on from an observing point of view. This Force was moving me across the ground, as if I was a floating object. I then noticed something that the Force was moving towards. As I got closer, I knew that it was a shadow in the shape of a man. As the Force brought me directly over the shadow, I shot up in the air like a rocket!  The Force moved me with such extreme velocity and an incredible amount of G-Force. It felt like my body was shaking like an earthquake (The Lord comes in the Man-child with an earthquake as it was when Jesus went into resurrection life.), as I was going straight up into the air. It seemed like the shadowy figure is what made the Force shoot me directly up in the air.  I was shaking so excessively that it seemed to be contorting my face, as soaring up through the air.  I then seemed to come either, out of the dream or into an earthly reality.  I started to think normally, thinking, is something wrong with me, what is happening to me? The Force started to wind my body down and it began to become less intense. It shook me so hard that I could still feel it in my physical body, as I either woke up or came into complete consciousness. I then started meditating on what had happened. I thought about the shadowy figure. The only thing that kept coming to me was Trump.  I have no idea why I felt this way. It might have looked like him, I'm not for sure. I don't think about Trump a lot, so it was un-normal for me to think that. (He is typed by Cyrus, who conquers DS Babylon, just when the Man-child is anointed over the Kingdom by the King. Cyrus is a shadow of Trump. Cyrus makes it possible for the Latter Rain Man-child to come and release the captives as in Isaiah 61. So the shadow person could represent both of these entities ruling under God as the verse he received. The refuge here will be formed and our new provisions to reach the world will come.) I then have a Bible app that I check every morning and it sends me a verse of the day. I looked at the verse, it said “whoever dwells in the shelter of the most high will rest in the shadow of the almighty”.  I was amazed that it had the word “shadow” in the random daily verse!   David Presidents Rule After the Queen Claire Pienaar 11/6/22 I dreamed Riaan and I were in a convoy of luxury vehicles to meet the queen. This was a queen similar to how Queen Elizabeth looked, and in the dream I thought to myself, “Haven't you already died?”. (She died long before her official death but the show must go on.) We were driving our silver van. David Eells was in the convoy with us, in his own luxury vehicle. (The David Man-child Reformers will receive riches to build the Kingdom and will have "authority over all the power of the enemy”.)  He had a driver. (The Holy Spirit)  The car was a light champagne or light gold color. It was clear that this was a type of “changing of the guard”. There were no flags flying over the residence. It was surprisingly small for what one would typically think is supposed to be a queen's residence.   We arrived at this large circular drive-way at the queen's residence, and Riaan mistakenly parked there instead of moving along. We'd never driven in or through a circular driveway so it was slightly confusing for us. He reversed and moved the van through the driveway once, and then once everyone had parked we were the last to park our vehicle. David was dressed sharply, in a light grey suit. He looked like a President with his hair all slicked back and he wore a pale blue tie that made his eyes sparkle.   I looked at our van and it had transformed into a camper van. (Our tabernacle) (ready for the wilderness tribulation). I was a little embarrassed by this camper van outside the queen's residence, as it seemed out of place, but I still dutifully followed David and the others into the building. There was a large estate next to the Queen's residence and a couple that lived there were out on their first floor balcony with black spy glasses or binoculars. (Whats left of the DS spies) They were watching Riaan and I like hawks. It was uncomfortable to feel their piercing eyes on us. But as we walked into the residence they could no longer see us and I felt better.   We were first in a holding room, where the queen's attendants were signing us in. We met two black missionaries and they were very tired. We came to find out that one had been raised on marijuana so he thought it was normal and it seemed to have very little effect on him. These men spoke the gospel with much conviction and with no regard for any man-placed authorities, like the queen's attendants. The queen came out and she was so very old. She greeted us all very kindly and told us she'd be going very soon, and that she was preparing things for David. The attendants were like restrained but rabid dogs, quite forceful but knew they couldn't do anything to us.   We sat at a long dining table, with David in the middle and all of us around him. We were feasting in the midst of this change of authority with David as Mr. President. There were grapes on the table, wine, as well as lamb and focaccia bread. (Feasting on the blood and bread of the Lamb of God.) Everything had garlic and salt on it. (Garlic is good for the heart, salt preserves). There were about 40 people at the dining table. The queen wanted all our details but she did not receive them. Water started dripping from the ceiling and they had to move us to a bigger room, as they were scared of being liable for someone's hurt from the water. David said, “It's going to continue to drip and then flood. But you will not be able to stop it.” They did not like that fact.  (It is the flood of the "latter rain" which is deadly to the carnal man.). I knew the residence would not get damaged by the water because it was a marble floor (the foundation was already refined and very strong).  (The strong foundation of the Rock of Jesus the Word is already laid.) The queen sort of disappeared. Then we were all just waiting for the next command.   We turned to these two black African preachers and I knew David could deliver one from this stronghold of addiction. The other was older, more patient and friendly. He reassured us that the younger one would break free soon.  (There are many ministers walking in the addiction of the darkness of apostasy who will be set free by the reformation.) I received by faith at random Ezekiel 39:28-29 for this dream: And they shall know that I am Jehovah their God, in that I caused them to go into captivity among the nations, and have gathered them unto their own land; and I will leave none of them any more there; neither will I hide my face any more from them; for I have poured out my Spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord Jehovah. (The David's will come out of the captivity to rule over the political realm in the Spirit and lead God's people, just as it was with Joseph, Daniel, Zerubbabel, etc.)   Select Language Afrikaans Albanian Amharic Arabic Armenian Assamese Aymara Azerbaijani Bambara Basque Belarusian Bengali Bhojpuri Bosnian Bulgarian Catalan Cebuano Chichewa Chinese (Simplified) Chinese (Traditional) Corsican Croatian Czech Danish Dhivehi Dogri Dutch Esperanto Estonian Ewe Filipino Finnish French Frisian Galician Georgian German Greek Guarani Gujarati Haitian Creole Hausa Hawaiian Hebrew Hindi Hmong Hungarian Icelandic Igbo Ilocano Indonesian Irish Italian Japanese Javanese Kannada Kazakh Khmer Kinyarwanda Konkani Korean Krio Kurdish (Kurmanji) Kurdish (Sorani) Kyrgyz Lao Latin Latvian Lingala Lithuanian Luganda Luxembourgish Macedonian Maithili Malagasy Malay Malayalam Maltese Maori Marathi Meiteilon (Manipuri) Mizo Mongolian Myanmar (Burmese) Nepali Norwegian Odia (Oriya) Oromo Pashto Persian Polish Portuguese Punjabi Quechua Romanian Russian Samoan Sanskrit Scots Gaelic Sepedi Serbian Sesotho Shona Sindhi Sinhala Slovak Slovenian Somali Spanish Sundanese Swahili Swedish Tajik Tamil Tatar Telugu Thai Tigrinya Tsonga Turkish Turkmen Twi Ukrainian Urdu Uyghur Uzbek Vietnamese Welsh Xhosa Yiddish Yoruba Zulu Powered by Translate Printer-friendly version

Kyle, Linda, and Matt take a look at 1 Timothy 3. They acknowledge that students might not see how this passage pertains to them. We can help our students see the importance of this God-given plan and structure for His Church. We can also use this passage to show them that passages like this help us hold to good biblical doctrine in our churches, and conversely help protect against false teachings and teachers, by installing strong leadership. Perhaps, in our current cultural context of so many losing faith in institutions, we can use this to instill trust in our churches and show that there should be built in accountability among leadership. We also look at other texts we can use to supplement the teachings of 1 Timothy 3.

Today Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. continues our collection of talks, Seven: Revelations of Jesus for His Church.

Atlanta Recap / Some Christians vote Democrat, while other Christians vote Republican. Why? It is important that we understand the reasons behind this because Christians are at odds with each other over politics. This conflict has created a rupture in the Body of Christ and hinders Jesus' desire for His Church to be unified. However, to unify  Christians across party lines, we first must gain a Biblical understanding of each other's political motivations.  Give / http://give2cfe.com

Sometimes we may think we have committed too much sin to ever be forgiven. Sometimes we may even feel that God has given up on us and so we should probably just give up on our relationship with Him. Some who walk away from their covenants with Him and thus leave His Church might feel a sense of freedom without their covenants. The book of Hosea reveals the real truth about each of these thoughts. We have not passed the point of no return, God will not give up on us, and it's not too late to return to His arms that are open to receive us. And the sense of freedom we might feel if we walk away from our covenants with God is a false sense of joy that will eventually leave us crashing to the ground without a parachute.

ABOUT THE EPISODEThe first chapters of Acts are rich in activity as the Holy Spirit rests on the Church for the very first time. Today, we're discussing the characteristics of the early church and what caused it to grow!BIG IDEASBig Idea #1: Jesus promises the Holy Spirit. The timing of this happening at Pentecost was not a coincidence. Jews from all over the world would have traveled to Jerusalem at this time. The Holy Spirit lit the flame of the church, and nothing can thwart God's plans for His Church!Big Idea #2: The marks of the first church: devoted to the apostles' teaching, fellowship, the breaking of bread, and prayer. We have so many opportunities for growth in the church as we consider sharing meals, meeting needs, and truly devoting ourselves to prayer. The Holy Spirit was at work, actively growing God's Church through these four practices. Big Idea #3: Stephen's bold proclamation, the warning against resisting the Spirit, and the first Christian martyr. Stephen's last prayers were an echo of Jesus' last prayers on the cross. He surrendered his spirit to God, and he showed grace to those wrongly persecuting him. EPISODE LINKSKing of Kings, by HillsongRest On Us, by Maverick City MusicWHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to encourage, equip, and empower women with the Word of God.

Today Pastor DawnCheré Wilkerson continues our collection of talks, Seven: Revelations of Jesus for His Church. In this message, “The Root of the Problem,” we study the church in Sardis, and explore the importance of remaining rooted in Jesus. Although externally they were prosperous, internally, the community in Sardis was disconnected from Jesus and could not bear lasting fruit. In the same way, we are called to ABIDE in Jesus, producing fruit through connection with him.  To continue learning, check out vouschurch.com/seven. Now, let's lean into the message together.
