How has Replacement Theology caused so much Christian persecution of the Jews? Find out with speaker Dr. Nathan Jones at the Lamb and Lion Ministries 2026 Kentucky Regional Conference!

Here in Revelation 22, we understand more about Israel's eternal home and her place of glory on the new earth in the new Jerusalem, from where the Lord Jesus Christ will rule and reign. This lesson looks into the vision of the new Jerusalem as a living city where “a pure river of [the] water of life” flows from “the throne of God and of the Lamb” and “the tree of life” yields monthly fruit, symbolizing eternal provision and restoration. The curse from the Fall will be removed, God's throne will be established there, and the redeemed will experience the joyful, active service and reign of God's people in the renewed creation, centered on intimate fellowship with the Lord. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/216-the-city-of-life/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LdihfNhDGJ0 Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=216-part-10-the-city-of-life Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/

Read OnlineMarriage and Divine UnionSome Pharisees approached Jesus, and tested him, saying, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any cause whatever?” He said in reply, “Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator made them male and female and said, For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, man must not separate.” Matthew 19:3–6In Jesus' time, divorce was a controversial and divisive issue. Two prominent schools of thought offered opposing views: The followers of Rabbi Hillel permitted divorce for trivial reasons, while the followers of Rabbi Shammai allowed it only for serious offenses. In today's Gospel, Jesus does not side with either group. Instead, He elevates the conversation by pointing back to God's original design for marriage, revealed at the beginning of creation.Jesus reminds us that God's intention for marriage is the permanent and sacred union of man and woman—a covenant, not merely a contract. When the two become “one flesh,” it is not only a physical union but also a spiritual and ontological reality: A new creation comes into being through the marital bond.Today, many people misunderstand the sacredness of marriage. Many marriages falter for a variety of reasons. This is partly because the ideal of marriage is demanding and requires deep personal sacrifice. True love—caritas, or charity—goes far beyond emotion and affection. It calls for the complete gift of self, radical selflessness, and unwavering commitment. When lived according to God's design, such love yields rewards that far surpass the trials it entails. But when relationships are clouded by selfishness, resentment, unforgiveness, or sin, they often unravel, leaving behind pain and regret.Saint Paul refers to marriage as “a great mystery,” likening it to the union between “Christ and the Church” (Ephesians 5:32). This is more than a metaphor; it is a theological truth. Every baptized person is called to be part of the Body of Christ and to share in the eternal Wedding Feast of the Lamb. The saints and mystics refer to this as “spiritual marriage”—the soul's union with Christ in Divine Love.The path to such divine union is rigorous. It demands the total gift of oneself to God. Every sin and attachment to sin must be stripped away by grace—and by our cooperation with that grace. This purifying journey prepares the soul for Mystical Marriage, a lasting and unbreakable union with God.Just as the heights of sanctity are reached only through great effort, so too is the perfection of marriage—or any relationship. This can feel daunting, but it should not lead to discouragement. Rather, it should inspire us with hope and resolve. Whether in marriage, friendship, or our relationship with God, we must pursue the ideal with zeal. Sanctity does not happen overnight, and neither do holy relationships. All require perseverance, humility, and grace.Jesus' teaching on marriage challenges us, but it is full of promise. It offers hope because it affirms that the grace needed to live this vocation comes as a gift from God in the Sacrament of Matrimony. For those called to marriage, and who receive and cooperate with this grace, the reward is nothing less than divine communion and eternal joy. To reach this end, we must transcend our natural limitations and rise above self-interest, fear, and the desire for comfort. This vocation requires a lifelong commitment to sacrificial love, fidelity, and perseverance, even amid trials and suffering.Reflect today on your vocation and how well you live the depth of love to which you are called. Whether you are married or celibate, trust in God's providence and resolve to live not by the standards of the world, but by the wisdom of the Kingdom of Heaven. Such a calling can only be fulfilled by grace and by hearts courageous enough to say “Yes” to that grace, day after day. Resolve to say “Yes,” and your reward will be great.My loving Lord, the charity that flows from Your Sacred Heart is pure and holy, radiating throughout Your entire Church. Draw me ever deeper into that love, so that I may receive You into my life and radiate Your love to others. Help me and all Your children to love You with all our hearts and to love one another, so that we may be perfectly united in You. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image: Scribes and Pharisees in the church, Iulian RosuSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

It's Thursday, August 13th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Haitian gangs target churches Violent gangs in Haiti are increasingly targeting churches. These gangs control up to 90 percent of the capital of Port-au-Prince. They have killed and kidnapped religious leaders and shut down dozens of churches.  Catholic Bishop Joseph Gontrand Décoste told Aid to the Church in Need, “We are the last remaining retaining wall: moral, ethical, spiritual, and prophetic. … That is why they want to eliminate us.” Christians help victims of Columbia's earthquake Christians are bringing disaster relief to Colombia.  A 7.4-magnitude earthquake struck the South American country on Monday. The quake killed 250 people and injured thousands more.  Many Christian relief organizations are sending aid to the country, including Samaritan's Purse. Franklin Graham, the president, wrote on X, “We … are currently working to put together an airlift of relief supplies, including emergency shelter tarp and hygiene kits. I encourage you to pray for the people of this country.” Hebrews 13:16 says, “Do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” Send a much-needed donation to the Columbian victims of this earthquake through Samaritan's Purse. You'll find the donation link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Mexican Bible Society translates Scriptures into 8 local languages The Bible Society of Mexico is celebrating six decades of ministry this year. The Bible has been translated into eight indigenous languages in the country. And the demand for Bibles is growing as Protestant churches expand their presence.  Efraín Amaro is the head of distribution of the Bible society. He told Christian Daily International, “In 60 years, more than 374 million biblical materials have been distributed. We have reached 13 cities across the country with service and distribution centers.” Revelation 7:9-10 says, “After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation belongs to our God Who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!'” White House Press Secretary Karolien Leavitt embraces motherhood White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, age 28, will be leaving her position to fully embrace motherhood. She and her 60-year-old husband, Nicholas Riccio, have two children together -- their son Niko, 2, and Viviana who is three months. In a Truth Social post, President Donald Trump explained that she “will be departing her role at the end of the month so she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family, a decision I totally understand and respect!” In a statement on X, Leavitt added, “Serving as the White House Press Secretary over the past year and a half has been the honor and adventure of a lifetime. I am incredibly grateful to President Trump for granting me so many extraordinary opportunities, such as working in the West Wing and spending countless hours in the Oval Office, flying around the world and meeting foreign leaders, and traveling across our beautiful country and meeting Americans from all walks of life. “The truth is, since returning to the White House after the birth of my daughter, I have felt in my heart that I cannot be the best mom my two young children deserve while devoting the constant time, energy, and attention required of the White House Press Secretary. And that is why I have ultimately made the bittersweet decision to depart the White House.” Titus 2:4-5 says, “Train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.” Democrat socialist barely defeated in Wisconsin Socialist Democrats suffered a setback in Wisconsin on Tuesday. Moderate David Crowley barely defeated socialist Francesca Hong in the Democrat primary election for governor. According to NBC, the vote was 39.8% vs 39.3%. Just 3,796 votes separated the two in the statewide race. Leftist candidates had been winning many Democrat primaries this year. Despite being considered a moderate, Crowley believes that killing unborn babies is “healthcare” and must be “protected at all costs.” He made this comment in his victory speech. CROWLEY: “Every one of us has something much bigger to unite around. And that is keeping [Make America Great Again] extremism from bringing the chaos we see in Washington into our neighborhoods right here in the state of Wisconsin. From the very first day that I announced this campaign, I said the real threat wasn't any of my primary opponents. The real opponent has always been Tom Tiffany. That remains true today.” Tiffany, the Republican nominee for Wisconsin governor, is currently a member of Congress. The Washington Examiner reports that new Democratic-affiliated polling shows Crowley beating Tiffany by three points this fall, though the race is within the margin of error. Crowley leads Tiffany 47% to 44%, according to the poll by Protect Our Wisconsin, a group backed by the Democratic Governors Association.  Federal gov't gave mega money to religious migrant resettlement groups The federal government funded major religious groups with hundreds of millions of dollars in migrant resettlement grants. The data comes from Brian Chau, the founder of Efforts News. Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk brought attention to this research in a post on X this week. In one case, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops received over $180 million dollars in migrant resettlement grants in 2024. That was over 80 percent of the group's revenue at the time. The contracts ended last year after the Trump administration cut funding to such programs.  Women hold more jobs than men in America Women now hold more jobs than men in the U.S economy.  A report from Indeed's Hiring Lab found the number of jobs held by men declined by 142,000 between February 2025 and February 2026. Over the same period, the number of jobs held by women grew by 298,000.   The report noted, “More jobs are held by women than men in the non-farm economy, not because of a recession, but because of years of eroding male labor force participation.” Americans become skeptical of capitalism Americans are becoming less positive toward capitalism. A new Gallup survey found 54 percent of U.S. adults said they have a positive image of capitalism. That's down from 61 percent in 2010. Thirty-nine percent said they have a positive image of socialism. That's up from 36 percent in 2010. The drop in positivity toward capitalism has accelerated since 2021. Americans trust small, local businesses and churches And finally, Americans tend to trust small, local institutions, according to research from the Barna Group.  U.S. adults put some of their highest trust in local businesses, individual Christians, and small churches. They put moderate trust in Christian pastors, Christian non-profits, and Christian businesses. But they had little trust for megachurches and celebrity pastors.  Compared to 2024, Christian non-profits, charities, and small churches saw the largest growth on the trust index.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, August 13th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

This presentation explores how the Book of Revelation portrays the Lamb as God's highly empowered and highly authorized agent. This high Lamb Christology nevertheless regards the one seated upon the throne as the God and Father of the Lamb.

In this episode, we learn that in the new Jerusalem, gold will be so plentiful it will be the pavement on which people will walk! The closing verses of Revelation 21 portray the new Jerusalem as a radiant, gold paved holy city that needs no sun or moon because “the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.” The passage emphasizes the city's interior splendor—streets of pure gold like transparent glass—and that its open gates welcome the saved nations and their kings who bring honor into the city. The new Jerusalem is Israel's eternal capital on the renewed earth and celebrates God's presence, perpetual light, and the purity of the city, where nothing that defiles will ever enter. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/215-the-city-of-light/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/NJHe94ufWkA Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=215-part-9-the-city-of-light Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/

Send us Fan MailWe can clearly see the connection from the start and finish of Jesus' ministry and His work. Like a thread connecting the moments- The Spirit, Water, and The Blood declare the truth as witness upon the earth. From the beginning and to the end of His ministry, we can see this miracle of water into wine is far deeper than first glance. It bears great power and has more mystery in it than a simple trick with drinks. We find the microcosm of the path of salvation. #prophecy #watertowine #hiddentruth So, What's The Prophetic Chain of Event? - Purified with water in the vessels of purification used for ritual washing, turned into wine in the power of the Spirit in Christ Jesus. - Representing the three witnesses that agree: the spirit, water, and the blood. - The wine now representing the blood of Jesus, given to the wedding party to fulfill the tradition of the wedding feast without failure or incursion. - Spiritually speaking, sanctifying the entire wedding party to the culmination of the wedding vows.

In the ministry of Jesus in the gospels, we see the new creation breaking into the old in a moment of miraculous wonder. The individual healings and the great feeding miracles point us to the ultimate outworking of the redeeming work of Jesus at the cross: all things will be made new. The sick will be restored in resurrection bodies; the hungry will feast at the marriage supper of the Lamb. Have we come to Jesus to receive a place in this new creation? Are we delighting in the prospect of joining him there?

In this episode, J. Warner Wallace takes you into the forensic details of the Bible's sacrificial system to examine a stunning claim: when John the Baptist called Jesus "the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world," he was doing something that flatly breaks the Old Testament lamb pattern. Using the same cold-case, investigative approach he applied for years as a detective, J. Warner shows that the mismatch between the Old Testament lamb pattern and Jesus' sacrifice is not a problem to explain away—it's a powerful evidential clue that Jesus is the God-man, whose once-for-all sacrifice has infinite worth. If you've ever wondered how the sacrificial system really worked, whether penal substitution is biblically grounded, or why Jesus must be God for the atonement to make sense, this episode will help you see the Lamb of God with fresh eyes.

In his teaching on Revelation 18 and 19:10, Andrew explains that the apocalyptic visions of Babylon's destruction are not depressing demolitions, but rather God's necessary preparation for re-creation, likening God to a visionary architect restoring the world to its Edenic design. The text uses "Babylon" as a timeless symbol for corrupt human empires driven by the cult of self, independence from God, and the pursuit of excessive luxury, which are ultimately empowered by demonic forces and the Dragon. In contrast to those whose hearts are attached to this doomed city, the church is commanded to "come out" of Babylon—not by physically withdrawing from the world, but by breaking spiritual partnership with its corrupt systems while faithfully interceding for the people still trapped inside. God's ultimate goal is to rescue humanity before judgment falls, leading to the joyous, contrasting scene of Revelation 19, where a great heavenly multitude celebrates the "wedding of the Lamb." Believers are challenged to evaluate which city holds their heart, and are offered practical disciplines—such as Sabbath-keeping, simplicity, and community generosity—to detach from Babylon and prepare themselves, adorned in the righteous acts given by God, for an eternity in the Garden City.

95% of people believe they're completely self-aware. Only 10% actually are, and that gap nearly cost this week's guest his business, his family, and his sanity. On this episode of One Part Lion, One Part Lamb, Stephen sits down with Lucas Sherraden, pastor turned real estate leader turned author of The Uncaged Leader, to unpack the hidden programming running underneath every decision we make. Lucas shares the moment his eighth-grade daughter's question exposed what was really driving his near-collapse in 2008, and the framework he now teaches leaders to help them see what they can't see in themselves. Together, they dig into why "the market" is almost never the real problem, how our own preferences quietly make decisions for us before we're even aware of it, and why the question "who must I become" matters more than "what must I do." It's the Lion and Lamb methodology in action: the strength to lead boldly, paired with the humility to actually look inward. In this episode, we unpack:  — The Harvard study on self-awareness that should unsettle every leader — The basketball gym moment that changed how Lucas saw his own business — The 5-second formula for practicing the pause before you react — The leadership archetypes keeping high-performers caged — How Lucas took a Kansas City brokerage from #6 to #1 in two years Lucas Sherraden is the author of The Uncaged Leader and a former pastor turned real estate leadership coach.

Recompense on the Beast and Harlot (1)  (audio) David Eells, 8/12/26 Destruction Comes for Apostate Leadership B. A. - 06/23/2015 (David's notes in red) I dreamed that I found myself in Jerusalem, back in Jesus' day, and I was looking up at the temple (a temple made by man's hands which God does not inhabit). Act.17:24 The God that made the world and all things therein, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; (Church buildings are not holy, the people must be.) 25 neither is he served by men's hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; 26 and he made of one every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed seasons, and the bounds of their habitation; 27 that they should seek God, if haply they might feel after him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us: 28 for in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain even of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. 29 Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and device of man. 30 The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked; but now he commanded men that they should all everywhere repent: 31 inasmuch as he hath appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. There were stone steps leading down from the temple, and on the steps stood Pharisees and Sadducees (Representing those of our day.). I was standing with a crowd of people in an open area a little ways from the temple and the stone steps, and just as I was looking around me in this crowd of people, I saw a man come forward out of the crowd who began to sternly address the men who were standing up (or exalting themselves) on the stone steps of the temple. I knew that the man speaking was Jesus. (Representing those in whom He lives by Word and Spirit in our day.) Mat.23:12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled; and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted.  As Jesus began to speak, I began to recognize the “Word” He was speaking to these men, since I had heard these same words before. Here is what I heard: Mat.23:15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte; and when he is become so, ye make him twofold more a son of hell than yourselves. When Jesus spoke the first “Woe”, I heard a loud pop-like sound and what sounded like a crackling sound. I looked down upon the stone steps of the temple where these Pharisees and Sadducees were standing, and I noticed a large, deep crack had run right up through the middle of those stone steps, and they were beginning to crack and crumble. I noticed that the deep crack was between the feet of a rather large and extremely overweight man. (This represents the apostate leadership of our day overcome by their own flesh.) 16 Woe unto you, ye blind guides, that say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor. Then, when Jesus spoke the second “Woe”, I heard another much louder pop-like sound and more of the crackling sound. I looked around to see where this sound was coming from, and I saw that a large, deep crack had gone all around the temple foundation, and it was cracking up and crumbling as well. (Everything that can be shaken will be.) 17 Ye fools and blind: for which is greater, the gold, or the temple that hath sanctified the gold? 18 And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it, he is a debtor. 19 Ye blind: for which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift? 20 He therefore that sweareth by the altar, (The crucified life.) sweareth by it, and by all things thereon. 21 And he that sweareth by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein. 22 And he that sweareth by the heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon. 23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye tithe mint and anise and cummin, and have left undone the weightier matters of the law (So tithing is of the law. This is the leaven of the Pharisees Jesus warned about.), justice, and mercy, and faith: but these ye ought to have done, and not to have left the other undone. 24 Ye blind guides, that strain out the gnat, and swallow the camel! (Making unimportant things important.) 25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full from extortion and excess. 26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first the inside of the cup and of the platter, that the outside thereof may become clean also. 27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which outwardly appear beautiful, but inwardly are full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. 28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but inwardly ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. 29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and garnish the tombs of the righteous, 30 and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we should not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. 31 Wherefore ye witness to yourselves, that ye are sons of them that slew the prophets. 32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. 33 Ye serpents, ye offspring of vipers, how shall ye escape the judgment of hell? 34 Therefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: some of them shall ye kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city: 35 that upon you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of Abel the righteous unto the blood of Zachariah son of Barachiah, whom ye slew between the sanctuary and the altar. 36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation. 37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem (John said Jerusalem is the Bride but there is a false bride.), that killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! 38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. (Devoid of God) 39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord. Just as Jesus had finished His Words to these men, the stone steps gave way, and all of those men standing on the crumbling stone steps fell down into a deep pit that had opened up under them. And just after that happened, the entire temple came crashing down on top of them and covered them up. I noticed that from Matthew 23:15 through verse 39, there are “six” woes -- “six” being the number of man. Also, I found it interesting that there is a “Woe” in Mathew 23:23, and the date of this revelation is the 23rd, and 23 means “death”. (This is clearly a reprobation of today's apostate leadership and their fake temples, as Jesus pronounced in His day, and is now a repeat of history.)    The Recompense on the Wicked Anna Stewart - 7/24/25  I dreamed that a few others and I were at a safari ranch. There was a ten-foot-high impenetrable wall of dead-looking grass going around the perimeter of where we were. (“All flesh is as grass,” said Peter, representing the flesh of the beast people, the Dragon devouring in Rev 12. Judgments are spreading over the world from these people.) We were told to get back into our vehicle because the grass was full of lionesses (representing the curse and judgment) just waiting to jump out and grab someone. I wasn't afraid, but I did get back into the vehicle. My father (representing THE Father) was driving the vehicle.  I was in the front passenger seat (the bride), but someone behind me had left their door open. Three times, with authority, I commanded them to “SHUT THE DOOR.” I knew they were primarily endangering themselves, but also putting the rest of us at risk, as well. (The vehicle represents sanctification, and we must all keep our own doors shut, for ourselves, but also for the sake of the body.)  We began to slowly drive down a narrow, one-way dirt road lined by that tall grass. A woman I know, who represents the harlot, was walking alongside us on the left of our vehicle. It wasn't safe to be outside, and she began to nervously knock on the door of the vehicle and say, “Let me in, let me in.”  The woman was not afraid, just slightly nervous, not realizing how very real the danger was. Rom.3:18 There is no fear of God before their eyes. To my surprise, my father continued driving slowly along, completely ignoring her. I said, “We need to let her in,” but still he didn't stop. Luk.13:25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not whence ye are;  Then I saw a huge, fierce-looking male lion (Satan) behind the vehicle on the right side. I said, “In the name of Jesus—” to pray for the woman's safety, but the Lord didn't even allow me to pray. In an instant, without warning, the lion pounced onto the woman, and there was a graphic spray of blood and body parts. It was horrific. I wailed, “Jesus!” Not just for the gore I had just seen, but because I knew that no repentance had happened. Mercy had run out, and there was not so much as a second for her to repent. And now it was too late. Pro.6:15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; On a sudden shall he be broken, and that without remedy. End of dream. I knew the Lord was speaking of this woman as a group of people. What I saw was His recompense that is before Him. Their time had run out. This is a warning, but the apostates this woman represents must confess their sins and run to the Lord now, or they won't escape. Let's continue to pray and believe for them.    Apostates Neglect Their Spiritual Man  Sam Paguaga - 12/10/2012 (David's notes in red) In a dream, I was in a large house with a lot of people around. There seemed to be a lot of rooms and a lot of stuff going on. People were talking and hanging around and doing their own business. I saw my mother (representing the apostate Church we were born from). (In reality, her name is Iris. (Which means “rainbow” in Greek. This could represent grace God wants to give to the Church of all nations.) She had a small child with her who seemed like a kid from a third-world country. He was very dark-skinned (representing her spiritual man in darkness), like from India, wearing worn-out clothes (not putting on the works of Christ). He seemed to be sick, and she didn't seem to be tending to him. (Representing the fruit of the apostate church's spiritual man, which they are not feeding and clothing.) If I had to say, he looked around three years old. (The fruit of their spiritual man is very immature.) My mother then gave him to me. (Those who minister to the mother Church will care for and feed their spiritual man.) I took him to a room, like a toddler room, where I was going to clean him up and put new clothes on him. (Cleanse him from sin and dress him up in the works of Jesus.) When I changed his shirt, I noticed what looked like a tumor on the side of his face by his right ear. (His hearing is under the curse. He hasn't heard truth.) Without a thought, I placed my hand over it and began to pray, “Dear Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus, heal him, heal his sickness, in the name of Jesus. Be healed. Be well. Thank You, Lord. God, thank You”. As I began to say, “thank You”, I felt under my hand something like bones cracking. (the bones of the inner ear, representing spiritual hearing) They were going back in place and the tumor was diminishing. (“Faith cometh of hearing and hearing by the Word”.) I continued to thank God. I knew he was being healed, so I left my hand over his face until I was sure he was all healed. (Their face needs healing: 2Co.3:18 But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit.) I noticed one of my sons was there looking. (My firstborn, whose name is Eliasaph (“God has increased or added”). We call him Eli.) I told him, “Look. God healed him”. Then, full of gladness for the boy, I grabbed the little boy's hand and walked him over to where my mother was. She was sitting in some type of large living room, on some couches. She was talking to somebody else and some other people. I was trying to get her attention and said, “Look. He's healed! Look, Mom. He's healed”. (They must believe the Gospel that their spiritual man is healed in Jesus' name.) But she just kept talking to the other person, like I wasn't even there. I tried one more time. “Look, Mom. Look. He's healed”. I'm not sure what happened to the little boy by that point. But my gladness turned to rage because she (as the apostate Church) was ignoring the work God had done. (In the natural, my mom is not at all like that. She is very caring and loving. And I have a good relationship with my mother and father. The mother in the dream is like the apostate church, not looking for God's will and rejecting God's spiritual work, in pursuit of earthly things and the entertainment of followers for money. Why did I want my mother to see? The latter rain will be rejected by the apostate church because it will lack the earthly treasures they value, but true treasure is in Heaven.) I picked up a wooden chair that was close by and threw it on the floor and it smashed. (The harlot church cannot rest from their own works, just as was seen in the example of the Jews in the Gospels and Acts. Heb.4:3 For we who have believed do enter into that rest; even as he hath said, As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.). Everyone looked. I felt like I was furious. I started walking down the hall. I picked up another chair and threw it toward them. I wasn't trying to hit them, but it landed right in front of them. (So they could see that they had no rest from the curse and sin through unbelief. Jesus crashed the money changers party for the zeal of God's house.) Then I started going up the stairs to the second floor, as I smashed another chair. (They are not graduating from kindergarten to higher levels.) Then I woke up. I wondered to myself why I had gotten so upset. I'm really not the kind to lose control in anger and in a fit of rage. (This was an expression of God's rage that the apostates care only for the world and not for their own souls or those of others. Heb.2:3 how shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation? which having at the first been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed unto us by them that heard. Rev.3:16 So because thou art lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spew thee out of my mouth.)   Devastation of Charismatic Christianity  P. O. - 08/03/2009 (David's notes in red)  In a dream, a man is walking the earth as if he is checking things. He comes upon a scene of violent disarray. (The best way to describe this scene is that it puts one in mind of how a car accident would look, but there's no car.) It's his bride, his wife. She's dead, but beautiful and at peace. Her luggage, apparel, and various items are in disarray around her. Many of these items are marked “The Enrique Hotel”. Also, she is dressed in a way that is reminiscent of the time the historians called “The Roaring Twenties” (which occurred right before the Great Depression). Then I heard a voice that said, “She's been lied to every day, every step of her life”. (Even though they will enter the Kingdom and be at peace, being lied to by false leaders will cost many Spirit-filled Christians their lives and possessions, at the hands of the violent beast. Hos.4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge...) When I woke up, I researched the name “Enrique”. It is derived from Spanish or Portuguese, meaning “Charismatic Ruler”. Another site mentioned that it is similar to the English “Henry”, which means “Home Ruler”. (The hotel represents the Church, which, according to Eph.2:19-22, is many houses built together into one Temple for God. Each individual house represents a person. The Spirit-filled people have the position of bride, even though many will not manifest this. The Charismatic leadership, typed by Judah, has gone far astray and is more guilty than the northern 10 apostate tribes because they have had the presence of God's Spirit in their midst to lead them, but have refused to follow His Word.)  I also asked the Lord for something in His Word that would coordinate or connect what He was giving me. He laid on my heart a page number in my very first study Bible. When I turned to it, I discovered that He had taken me to 1 Thessalonians 2. The verse that seemed emphasized was: “For ye, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus: for ye also suffered the same things of your own countrymen even as they did of the Jews...” End of Dream. (I interpreted the top part of this dream before I saw Judea and the rest of this verse. Truly, the Charismatics have imitated the churches, rather than the Scriptures, and they will suffer the same violent attack of the Beast as the Jews did from their countrymen.) One of the reasons why I knew the dream meant something was that I would never, in the natural, dream about something named “Enrique”. I live in Indiana, and there's very little Spanish influence here. I thought this dream was meant for me personally, for the Lord to show me that I was part of the Bride, that I had died to the flesh and was now at rest in Him. I have suffered some persecution from family over the past year. As a personal dream, I was not going to pass this on to anyone. But this morning, I noticed that there is news now on the Internet, originating three days after my dream, regarding the latest Hurricane or Tropical Storm of the year. It, too, is named Enrique. Living in the Midwest, I do not follow hurricanes or keep track of what storm names are coming, so this was a total surprise. I'm not a mathematician, but for a Hoosier, English-only speaker, to dream a name that three days later hits the national news as the newest coming storm seemed to me to be 'up there' in the range of improbability, so that's why I've sat down and now typed it for you, thinking this may be for the larger body of believers. A violent storm is now coming straight for the Charismatic Church, most of which believe they will fly away and so are not preparing to escape the Beast. What is it that we should know and do to escape this Beast? The president of scripture over traditions of men.    The Harlot's Fire Is Coming Apostate Church Cut Up and Cooked Like a Goose Cal Spinner - 08/07/2007 (David's notes in red)  I dreamed I was in the person of the Son of Man. I was in a giant library or bookstore with many books (I.e., religious teachings) and many, many rooms. I met a beautiful woman who seemed Western. She was dressed quite modernly and was wearing makeup, gold and diamond jewelry. We began to converse, and I invited her to come with me. As we began to go, we met another woman who was dressed more Eastern in a plain white dress, with a head covering over her head. She had no jewelry or makeup, just a thin gold belt that was like a rope. She was wearing plain sandals, whereas the other woman wore stockings and high heels. It seemed we all knew each other, and I invited her to come with me as well. (This seems to contrast women of the world and their fake persona, with humble women of the Word to show who is the qualified Bride. 1Ti.2:9 In like manner, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefastness and sobriety; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly raiment; 10  but (which becometh women professing godliness) through good works.) We then walked out of the library and into what seemed like a honeymoon suite of some hotel. The room had a good view of the ocean and elaborate wicker furniture. It was very beautiful and was all decorated in very pure white. There were two king-size beds side by side. I said to the women, “See, there is plenty of room; you both can stay”. They agreed, and both presented me their feet (representing their walk), which became like reeds. It seemed like reeds for making baskets, although I had an impression of water as well, like certain reeds that grow in the water. I took shears and clipped their feet off. Then the beautiful Western woman became jealous of the other woman when I gave her attention. (As the Lord will) I said to the Western woman, “You can't get away because you cannot stand on your own”.  I then laid the woman with the head covering in the bed. (The sign of submission to the Lord as husband.)  Then the scene suddenly shifted to a kitchen, and I was placing the other woman in the oven. She had the left arm and leg missing, and the right arm and leg were bound with a string. She was on a tray and had an apple in her mouth. She was weeping as I placed her in the oven and shut the door and turned it on to cook her like a goose, but the apple in her mouth reminded me she was a pig. (full of flesh)  Then I woke up very disturbed and asked the Lord for interpretation. I am still, at the time of this writing, quite shaken by the vividness of this dream and the quickness with which the interpretation came to me. This is a terrible warning! This is the interpretation the Spirit revealed to me, although there may be more. The great hall with many rooms and the many books represents all the many doctrines of man and his religions. There were many people there partaking of the various books. The Son of Man is in the store or library with all the other doctrines of the world, but only invites some to go with Him. The two women represent the church -- those invited to wed the Lord. The woman dressed more plainly with the head covering represents the true Bride. The head covering symbolized willingness to submit to authority and headship of the bridegroom. The modern woman who was selfish and jealous and dressed in jewelry and fakeup represents the apostate church. (Who believe they are the bride.)  The clipping of the feet is when we come to the Lord. We agree not to stand on our own but to be carried by the Lord. (Although both groups acknowledge they cannot stand on their own but by grace, the true Bride will be made to stand by grace because of true faith.) The cutting up represents the denominations of the apostate church that are one-sided, missing one arm and one leg. (The left side [goats] being missing will mean that through their own works they will have no power to escape and be saved. The right side [sheep] represents that they are unable to do the works or walk of the Lord, but are only bound by a string, symbolizing that they could be free if they really wanted to.) The Lord will judge them for being worldly and self-absorbed and put them in the oven Himself. They will cry out, but He won't hear them and will send them to be baked. He won't hear them because they are like pigs concerned with only themselves, rejecting His authority and headship. They will not allow Him to carry them to His bedchamber (where His seed is sown in them to bear His fruit), but instead, they will try to do things their own way, being more concerned about what the world thinks of them than the Lord. It will be grievous to them, but those who are truly the Lord's will be saved through the fiery trial that will cause them to give up their self-works of wood, hay, and stubble. 2Ti.2:19 Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his: and, Let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness. 20 Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor. 21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, meet for the master's use, prepared unto every good work. 22 after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. Those who truly are the Lord's will lose the wood, hay and stubble of their self-works and any reward they thought they would have from this, but it is here that they will be saved from themselves. 1Co.3:12 But if any man buildeth on the foundation gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, stubble; 13 each man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself shall prove each man's work of what sort it is. 14 If any man's work shall abide which he built thereon, he shall receive a reward. 15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as through fire.) We should all take heed with great fear and trembling and submit ourselves to the Lord's authority with all haste. The time is at hand to come out of Babylon or be destroyed by the east.   The Righteous Offend the Beast and Harlot  Vincent Xavier 1. I am coming to do great injury and wrong to that which is not of My Father. My nature contends with the nature of the beast. This nature of the beast is in the heart of men who have not been sanctified by My Spirit. That which has not been fully sanctified remains an offense to me and I will be an offense to it! Yes, I will offend the Beast in this hour! I will release a shockwave of glorious power that will cause the Beast to reel to and fro like a drunken man! The nature of the Beast has cleverly entrapped MY people and has caused them to err in their hearts concerning what is acceptable to My Father.  A learned practice of what is acceptable to men has been the standard by which men have been judged, yet that standard shall be fully violated in this DAY. Religious leaders have led My people into complacency and have lulled them to sleep with their fairytales and ideas that originate in their own minds. Their words are not My words for their words carry no sanctifying power. Their words carry no influence in the realms of darkness to the liberating of the captives. The nature of the Beast is empowered by sin and the message of the religious leaders has not emancipated the conscience of those who believe in me. It is the SIN CONSCIENCE that must be dealt with. It is the SIN ISSUE that must be fully realized as the open door to Satanic power in the souls of those who believe. My nature will make war with the Beast within the soul of men and will execute judgment upon the Beast. Be prepared, for many shall be offended in the last days and it will be I Who is causing the offense! Those who are righteous indeed will be an offense to those who are religious indeed. 2. I am going to exceed all bounds of decency and reasonableness. Follow My life! Look at me! Was I approved and acceptable to the approved social order of My day? Was I subject to those who were in control of the day? Was the Roman government My head? Were the religious leaders of Judaism My head? NO!  My only supreme was My Father and I always did what My Father told me to do, even at the risk of upsetting the standard order of the times. Yes, it was I who entered into the temple and turned over the tables of the moneychangers. This was an acceptable practice for those Jews at that time, but their practices were not ordained of My Father.  It was I who caused outrage in the hearts of those who would take me to the cliff to throw me down the mountain! It was I who stirred the crowds into chaos and confusion, causing divisions among men! It was I who upset the religious mindset of the day when healing on the Sabbath and doing good to those who were in need. It was I who caused offense in the hearts of the hypocrites! Yes, it was I, and I say unto you that I am going to upset the world again, and I am going to turn it upside down. I am going to shake the world of all its social graces and practices that are an offense and abomination to My Father. Two thousand years ago, I sent a people into the world and they, according to My will, TURNED THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN! So it is on this, the THIRD DAY, that I am going to release My people once again from the caves of obscurity who have hid from the religious leaders of this Day and bring them out into the open, and oh what an offense they shall be to all the social orders men have labored so hard to erect and put in place. Consider My servant David and the men who went out to meet him in the caves of Adullam. These were not the kind of men who were subjected to the religious order of Saul, and neither will these be those I release in this hour. Surely I say to you that they will enter into your places of worship and contend with all that is not of My Father. They will be an offense to many and will reveal the hate and control in the hearts of the leaders who have refused to LET MY PEOPLE GO! Consider My servant Joseph. He was thrown into prison by his OLDER brothers. Surely he shall arise in the earth having great authority and will rule over those older brothers in the days to come. Yes, those who were an insult to them because of their pride and jealousy will bow their knees to them and will acknowledge their authority and will know of a truth that I have loved them with an everlasting love from before the eons of time, or else they shall perish without a word. Let it be known that I AM an offense to the world, for the world is surely an offense to me!  I have watched the world and have watched My people in the world and those who claim to be Mine. I ask, what have you learned since you believed? Have you not yet departed from that which is an offense to me? Have you not read that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of Mine? You have not yet COME OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE! Therefore, you shall incur judgment against yourselves for I have determined to destroy Babylon! I am not speaking of the Babylon in the Middle East, but the Babylon in the middle of your heart! I am speaking to your Babylonian ways and mindsets! When I walked upon the earth, I did not call attention to the Roman authorities but to the condition of men's hearts! Yes, I am coming to topple that which appears before men as most religious. That which is so acceptable today is an abomination to me! That which has become the social order of the day, the acceptable form of worship, is coming to an end! For I have determined to FINISH the house that has been in building for two thousand years. Yes, out of the ashes will arise a new building, complete and perfect, a people who are in the exact image of My Father! I am not concerned with social graces and what is acceptable to men; I am only concerned with that which belongs to my Father!  How will I come? I will come to you in the form of men and women! I will come to you with great power and anointing when once I release My reserved ones. I come! I come in them to stand before the multitudes in order that I may bring truth to My temple! I come! Surely I come!  3. My presence will be very shocking and offensive in this DAY. A heavy blow will come to the earth! For heaven has witnessed the actions of men in the earth and their actions have been weighed in the balance. I will cause to stagger all nations by the news they shall hear. What men have deemed as “good taste” shall surely become bitter by what I am about to do. Indeed, that which was once approved of men and acceptable in the eyes of the admirers shall become a revolting offense, even disgusting. My people, who are seated with Me in heavenly places, are prepared to appear in the earth before the eyes of men. These shall be the reason for the “shock syndrome” that will come. For that which was once accepted in My house by men shall be seen as a detestable thing in comparison to the holiness that My sanctified ones shall walk in. Their presence shall reveal the disgusting abomination that has been hidden in the hearts of men while doing many outward works of righteousness.  I say that those works of outward righteousness shall be seen for what they truly are, mere religious robes covering the filth of an unsanctified life. My pure presence within My beloved ones shall cause the heart to fail in those who are unrepentant. 4. My appearing shall be violent in action and disposition. When I come, I will come with a violent disposition that will cause men to pale and pine away. For I will take the nations by violence, and I will destroy that which is false with a strong overthrow.  How will I come? I will appear through My servants, the prophets! Their words shall be as a hammer violently breaking in pieces that which is an abomination to My Father. A destroying fire shall come out of their mouths to the burning up of all chaff in the hearts of men! There will be no arrogance when they come. Those who would oppose their words will come under swift judgment. For these are My battle axes, My weapons of war, who have been reserved for a time such as this, yet it is I who am working in them beyond their own understanding! They have yielded to My will and have surrendered their lives so that I may live in and through them. It will be I who am contended with by those who would oppose them.  I have said that violent men take the Kingdom by force, and it will be at this time that the Kingdom shall be taken by those full of divine energy and power. Satan shall be cast out of the heavenlies and thrust down into the pit. I am speaking to the hearts of men. For it is within the heart that all evil comes. Not outwardly in the skies above but within the very soul of man that Satan has taken his seat along with the Beast and the false prophet. These evil spirits have held the dominion, but shall now come under a violent blow that shall shake them from their high places in order to release My Kingdom in the hearts of those who believe.  5. Because I am going to exceed all bounds of right, morality, and decency known to man, I will be INTOLERABLE to the modern religious and social leaders of this day. My people, hear me! What has been erected as decent, moral, and acceptable to men is truly an abomination to me. You live in a time where men call evil good, good evil, bitter sweet and sweet bitter. It is a DAY wherein light is called darkness and darkness is called light.  Because of these conditions, I will come as an INTOLERABLE force of emptying magnitude. I will so completely overturn that which is hypocritical that nothing will remain. Understand that what I have tolerated for so long will no longer be tolerated. In My intolerance, I will lead a militia of chosen warriors through whom I will shake the earth!  Many will find My ways intolerable from behind the pulpit in these moments of time, for many in the congregation shall be offended because of the righteousness that flows from the minister's lips. Yes, I have ministers, Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Teachers and Pastors who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal, who will demonstrate My glorious power in these days. To them shall many flock. For the true shall know My voice in and through them and will know them by their fruits. Man has played with power greater than himself and by so doing has opened the gate to a great flood of evil. But no man has ever witnessed the magnitude of My intolerance as what shall be witnessed in these days. My presence will become unbearable to the wicked. My words will be too severe for the hypocrites! I will appear as a cruel one to those who have been cruel! Many will not be able to bear with me. Yet to My beloved shall I appear with an intolerable love and grace! Yes, many will not be able to bear My love, mercy and grace that I will bestow upon them, and these shall be swept away in rapturous moments in My glory. These shall be overwhelmed with My love and blessings!  Many great and wonderful blessings shall abound to their account, and their inheritance shall be released unto them. These are those who have come to maturity and have grown up beyond the mere religious practices of many. These are My sons and daughters who will set the creation free, even as I did when I walked upon the earth. He came as a Lamb but comes as a Lion!

The modern Church has turned singing into something soft, sentimental, and safe. Scripture presents something far more dangerous. From Moses at the Red Sea to Jehoshaphat marching against an army, from David's war Psalms to Christ singing on His way to the cross, God repeatedly places songs into the mouths of His people when enemies are falling and His kingdom is advancing.In this sermon, we examine how singing carries God's Word into battle, interprets His victories for future generations, marches before His armies, wages war against fear, and joins the victorious song of the risen Christ. Singing is not liturgical filler or religious entertainment. It is a weapon God has placed in the mouths of His people. We sing when we are winning, when we are bleeding, and when our knees are shaking, because Jesus Christ reigns, His enemies will become His footstool, and the world will one day resound with the song of the Lamb.

When Jesus tells his disciples and us today to “do his words” it doesn't mean there won't be storms in our lives as all of us absolutely know.  Sometimes it's storm after storm.  Where is the calm?   The calm is in our hearts and minds through one thing - faith in Christ Jesus.  He is THE Rock, not just “A” rock.  How we hold up during the storms of our lives is dependent upon our faith in Jesus, our Rock, our Redeemer.   What a foundation He gives us.  A foundation built for us by blood, sweat and tears of our Lord and Savior, Jesus, the Christ.  The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world, yes, but not the storms of the world although He could if He desired.  But that isn't the way He works.  He does the heavy lifting.  We do the trusting and believing.  Living inside the will of God is the safest place to be.  Living outside God's will, well, we are asking for trouble.   But even then, our Rock and Redeemer isn't going anywhere.  He is always ready to forgive, ready to lift us up again.  It's what our God does.  It's who our God is.     Isaiah 28:14–18 James 1:19–27 Matthew 7:24-29

He Knew This message and teaching centers on this truth: Jesus knows exactly what He is doing. John introduces us to the Christ, who is eternal God, the source of life, the giver of eternal life, the Light that darkness cannot overcome, and the Lamb who perfectly accomplished the Father's purpose. Because He is sovereign, sufficient, and faithful, we can trust Him even with the parts of life that seem unpleasant, thorny, confusing, or "undrinkable." The water turned to wine in John 2 becomes a beautiful picture of Christ's transforming power. Jesus took ordinary water from purification vessels and produced something unexpectedly excellent. In the same way, He can take the hard-to-swallow experiences of our lives—trouble, disappointment, weakness, failure, loss, and pain—and redeem them for His purposes. We may never call the painful circumstance itself good, but we can eventually testify, "God was good to me in it." He can turn trouble into testimony, scars into compassion, messes into messages, and weaknesses into platforms for His strength. Three questions help us recognize God's work in every season: Is He glorifying Himself through this? Is He conforming me to Jesus through this? Is He preparing what He is doing in me to benefit someone else? Romans 8 reminds us that the ultimate "good" God is working toward is conformity to the image of His Son. What He teaches us through suffering often becomes grace we can later share with another person walking through seasons of troubles and trials. John 1 then establishes who this Jesus really is. "In the beginning was the Word." Jesus did not begin at Bethlehem. He is the eternal Word, God's perfect self-revelation, Creator

The Heart of Living Hope Invites | Matthew 22:1-14 | Week 2The Church Age is the season of God's gracious invitation to His Kingdom following Israel's rejection of her Messiah and the judgment that fell upon Jerusalem. The invitation now extends to all who will come, but entrance into God's Kingdom is only on His terms. We must be clothed in the righteousness of Christ, for only those covered by His holiness will enter the wedding feast of the Lamb.

Sermon by Apostle Ren Schuffman What does it really mean to be covered by the blood of Jesus? Most people treat it as a spiritual phrase without understanding the profound truth behind it. This teaching digs into Scripture, science, and the nature of time to reveal something that will completely change how you pray, how you speak, and how you see yourself.Scripture declares in Colossians 1 that all things were created through Jesus and in Him, and that in Him all things are held together. Revelation 13:8 tells us the Lamb was slain from the foundation of the world. That means the cross was not God reacting to humanity's failure. It was His original design, coded into creation before anything existed.Science is beginning to confirm what the Bible has always said. Quantum physics and the double-slit experiment reveal that particles of light appear to respond to future observations, suggesting that something in the physical world is not bound by linear time. Researchers studying aging have discovered that cells can be returned to their original code, reversing the aging process entirely. In animal studies, aging was reversed to the equivalent of 260 human years. Human trials are already showing results, including the reversal of blindness. And the laminin protein, the molecule that holds your cells together at the cellular level, is shaped like a cross.God's fingerprint is inside your body. The blood of Jesus is not something you apply from the outside. It is already in you, waiting to be activated.Revelation 12:11 says believers overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony. When you speak what heaven has already written about your life, you align yourself with the original code placed in you at creation. You are not creating something new. You are expressing something that was always there.This teaching also explores identity and assignment. You are not called to become the person you are called to reach. If you are called to lift people out of brokenness, you are not called to live in it. You carry something others need, and walking in that truth is part of activating the blood.Topics covered include the meaning of John 1 and Colossians 1, the double-slit experiment and quantum physics, DNA and the origin of life, the laminin protein and the cross, aging reversal research and what it reveals about God's design, the difference between the Old and New Testament blood covenant, how to pray from your future instead of your past, and the connection between identity and spiritual authority.Keywords: blood of Jesus, covered by the blood, what does the blood of Jesus mean, quantum physics and the Bible, laminin protein cross, DNA and God, aging reversal science, Revelation 12:11, praying with authority, spiritual identity, John 1 meaning, Colossians 1, slain from the foundation of the world, how to activate faith, Christian teaching on prayer, prophetic prayer, declaring God's promises, faith and science, Christian identity, overcoming by the blood of the Lamb.#BloodOfJesus #CoveredByTheBlood #FaithAndScience #QuantumPhysics #DoubleSlitExperiment #DNA #Laminin #ChristianIdentity #SpiritualAuthority #PowerOfPrayer #BloodOfTheLamb #ScienceAndFaith #NatureOfTime #BibleTeaching #JesusChristhttps://www.ffc.church (Our Website) https://www.facebook.com/freedomfellowshipokc (Follow us on Facebook) Were you blessed by this message?

Luke 19:41–48 | Does Actually God Want the Temple Rebuilt?In this sermon for the Tenth Sunday after Trinity, Pastor Rojas asks a question at the heart of modern Christian Zionism: Does God actually want the Temple in Jerusalem rebuilt?Jesus' answer is no. The Temple, sacrifices, priesthood, and altar all pointed to Christ. Jesus is the true Temple, the Lamb of God, and our great High Priest. The shadows have given way to the reality.Jerusalem's deeper problem was that when God visited them, they didn't recognize Him. They wanted political victory and earthly glory. God gave them a King on a donkey and a Savior on a cross. We make the same mistake whenever we decide what God must fix before we'll believe He is with us.But you don't have to wait for something to happen in Jerusalem. God has already come to you in Christ. He forgives you, dwells with you, and gives Himself to you. Even when your health, strength, and life are taken away, Christ is still yours.The Sacrifice has been made. The curtain is torn. Your sins are forgiven. God dwells with you. And because Christ lives, you will live also.Subscribe & Share if this sermon strengthened your faith.

The Redeemed of God Jonathan Parnell Download Psalm 107,Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he has redeemed from trouble3 and gathered in from the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.4 Some wandered in desert wastes, finding no way to a city to dwell in;5 hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted within them.6 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.7 He led them by a straight way till they reached a city to dwell in.8 Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man!9 For he satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul he fills with good things.10 Some satin darkness and in the shadow of death, prisoners in affliction and in irons,11 for they had rebelled against the words of God, and spurned the counsel of the Most High.12 So he bowed their hearts down with hard labor; they fell down, with none to help.13 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and burst their bonds apart.15 Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man!16 For he shatters the doors of bronze and cuts in two the bars of iron.17 Some were fools through their sinful ways, and because of their iniquities suffered affliction;18 they loathed any kind of food, and they drew nearto the gates of death.19 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.20 He sent out his word and healed them, and delivered them from their destruction.21 Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man!22 And let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving, and tell of his deeds in songs of joy!23 Some went down to the sea in ships, doing business on the great waters;24 they saw the deeds of the Lord, his wondrous works in the deep.25 For hecommanded and raised the stormy wind, which lifted up the waves of the sea.26 They mounted up to heaven; they went down to the depths; their courage melted awayin their evil plight;27 they reeled and staggered like drunken men and were at their wits' end.28 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.29 He made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed.30 Then they were glad that the waters were quiet, and he brought them to their desired haven.31 Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man!32 Let them extol him in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.33 He turnsrivers into a desert, springs of water into thirsty ground,34 a fruitful land into a salty waste, because of the evil of its inhabitants.35 He turns a desert into pools of water, a parched land into springs of water.36 And there he lets the hungry dwell, and they establish a city to live in;37 they sow fields and plant vineyards and get a fruitful yield.38 By his blessing they multiply greatly, and he does not let their livestock diminish.39 When they are diminished and brought low through oppression, evil, and sorrow,40 he pours contempt on princes and makes them wander in trackless wastes;41 but he raises up the needy out of affliction and makes their families like flocks.42 The upright see it and are glad, and all wickedness shuts its mouth.43 Whoever is wise, let him attend to these things; let them consider the steadfast love of the Lord.And we just heard verse 43. Now we want to do exactly what it says… This morning, by the grace of God, we're gonna be wise and we're gonna “attend to these things.”There are three central truths in Psalm 107 that we need to see. The first is this:1. The redeemed of God come from everywhere.This is verses 1–3. The psalmist is commanding the people of God to praise him. And notice in verse 2 that he calls the people of God “the redeemed of the Lord.” And that word “redeemed” is another way to say to be saved. It means to be claimed as one's own and brought back into safety at a cost to the redeemer. That's true for the people of God! We are who we are, first and foremost, because God has taken it upon himself to rescue us. We've been saved. Then verses 2 and 3 tell us more: We've been redeemed from trouble and gathered in from lands east, west, north, and south. I read this verse to the kids the other night and asked what it means if something is from east, west, north, and south — and John Owen said right away: It means from everywhere.That's exactly right. These are the four corners of the earth. It means everywhere— fromevery direction.And from the start in Psalm 107 this means two things are happening: this is an answer to prayer and it's a sign of hope. Thinking CanonicallyThis is an answer to prayer because of the immediate context. Last week, Psalm 106 closed with this prayer in verse 47: “Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from among the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise.”This week Psalm 107 opens in thanks and praise to God because he has answered that prayer. The people of God had been scattered, but now God is starting to do what looked like the new exodus. This is where we see the sign of hope … For this part, we gotta zoom out from the Book of Psalms and remember the whole storyline of Scripture and the history behind this: The Book of Psalms was shaped into its final form within the historical context of Israel's captivity in Babylon. The people of God were in exile, longing for the Messiah to rescue them. They longed for the restored kingdom the prophets foretold. And in 538 BC, Cyrus king of Persia allowed Jewish exiles to return to their homeland. Eventually the temple was rebuiltand the walls of Jerusalem were restored (we read about this in Ezra and Nehemiah). That's the historical situation behind Psalm 107. It was a foretaste of the hope to come, but it was still a far cry from the new and greater exodus envisioned by the Old Testament prophets … that's because:The nations are not yet streaming to Zion. The earth is not yet full of the knowledge of the Lord.The wolf is not yet hanging out with the lamb. Jerusalem was not yet new — it wasn't even what it used to be. That's why Psalm 107 is mainly a pointer. It's a signpost looking beyond itself. The real hope is that one day — quote: “people will come from east and west, and from north and south, and recline at the table in the kingdom of God” — that's a direct quote from Jesus in Luke 13:29.Jesus affirms this Old Testament hope. One day the redeemed of God will come from everywhere, and every direction. And that's the church that Jesus is building now. Ever since Acts Chapter 2, Christians are from all over the world.Worthy of Global GloryAnd this is really important. It's one of the most glorious things about our faith. It's why Christianity has been called a missionary faith. And it's unique to us. Christianity is not like Islam. Islam is a coercive religion that imposes itself on other cultures. The goal of Islam is not to seek the good of a city, but the goal is conquest. Takeover. It destroys what was there before and tries to do something different. But see, the gospel is able to enter any kind of culture on this planet with both challenge and affirmation … There are parts of every culture that the word of God challenges — it says: “This is out of step with God's design. Change it.” And there are also parts of every culture that the word of God affirms — it says: “This echoes something good in God's design. Redeem it.”It's always both, which is why expressions of the church can look so different all around the world, and the Bible can be translated in any language — it's beautiful! The gospel never requires someone to become culturally Jewish or Roman or American. Jesus makes one people from every people. Because he is worthy of global glory. … That's where we're headed. This Old Testament hope, and what Jesus taught, one day is gonna be a “great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages” and we will all gather around the throne of the Lamb and we will praise him together (see Revelation 7:9).The redeemed of God come from everywhere. That's the first truth to see. Here's the second:2. The redeemed of God are rescued from every trouble.Now notice the word “trouble” in verse 2. The redeemed of the Lord (from all over the world) are redeemed from trouble.And then that trouble is explained in verses 4–23 as four different kinds of trouble. We can put it in four categories: God redeems his people from being … Lost, Trapped, Defeated, and Afraid.Now, look, I don't think these four categories are exhaustive or exclusive. You can be in other kinds of trouble, and you can be in all these kinds of trouble.But what I do know for sure is that all of us have been in some kind of trouble. And some of us are still there. … and if that's you, you're at the right place this morning. Now I'm going to read each kind of trouble to you, but remember this is poetic — it's not gonna describe every detail of your story, but it's gonna make sense to you.First, the trouble of being lost.We see two in verse 4:“Some wandered in desert wastes, finding no way to a city to dwell in; hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted within them.”Again, most likely none of you have literally wandered around in a desert … but you know what it's like to wander around in a desert. You know what it means to be lost. You're looking for a place to land, for a place to call home, for a place to plant your tree. But everything around you is just flat and dry, and there's nowhere to even sit. So you just keep wandering.This reminds me of earlier this summer. Y'all know I love summer, and I watched a lot of youth sports this summer, but there was one field we were at … flat ground as far as the eye could see, synthetic turf surrounded by concrete surrounded by asphalt surrounded by lava — that's what it felt like. There was no shade at all. The sun was just bearing down. And it was kinda funny to watch, because the parents and spectators would get there, and everyone is trying to figure out where to sit, everyone is wandering around holding their chair, but it's all the same: It's either scorching hot or scorching hot. Like a desert.And in a desert it doesn't take long before you're drained. Your soul gets hungry and thirsty and starts to faint. This the trouble of being lost. Second, the trouble of being trapped. We see this is verse 10:“Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, prisoners in affliction and in irons …”Let me stop here for a minute to make sure you get the picture: This kind of trouble is not being lost, it's being stuck. There's a seat in this trouble, but it's a seat in darkness. It's the shadow of death. And you're imprisoned there. You can't get out. And when you try, you realize that you brought this whole thing upon yourself. The psalmist tells us in verse 11:“for they had rebelled against the words of God, and spurned the counsel of the Most High. So he bowed their hearts down with hard labor; they fell down, with none to help.”Sometimes we choose our trouble. That's what this is. We enslave ourselves to sin, and we can't escape. It's this cycle of a slow downward spiral. We've been there. The trouble of being trapped.Third, the trouble of being defeated.This is verse 17:“Some were fools through their sinful ways, and because of their iniquities suffered affliction; they loathed any kind of food, and they drew near to the gates of death.”I want you to see here the resignation. They're defeated. They've quit. The word for “fools” in verse 17 is one that shows up a lot in the Book of Proverbs. It means “culpable stupidity.” It's the recognition that “Yes, I brought this trouble on myself” but then it's just an implosion. You're beat. You're done. You give up. Think about this as cynicism to the extreme. It is the so-called ‘respectable sin' of our times. You're just grumpy about everything. Despairing. Nothing is ever good enough. You loathe any kind of food. The trouble of being defeated.Fourth, the trouble of being afraid. This is verse 22, and it's a longer description. … it's a picture of being in the middle of a storm at sea … huge waves are rising up around you … and we read in verse 26: “their courage melted away in their evil plight; they reeled and staggered like drunken men and were at their wits' end.”Now one of my favorite commentators said something about this verse that struck me. I want to read it to you. Listen to this. He said:Given the wider biblical resonances of the sea and the deep, it is reasonable to suppose that we are to feel here the terror not just of a literal storm at sea but of the forces of wickedness and chaos in the nations that afflict the church of God. (Ash, 124)Try this metaphor: Cities Church, we are in a ship (and it's not a cruise ship — it's a lifeboat) — and we are surrounded by a storm at sea. The wind and waves are raging around us. That's the image.One thing that helps us with this image is that this sanctuary is properly called a nave. That's what this room is. It's the “nave” — which is the Latin word for ship. These wooden beams were built to replicate an old boat. We're in an ark, and we're passing through the storm of this world, and we're trying to get as many people as we can in the ark with us. But right now the storm is bad.And bad storms cause fear. That makes sense. Some of us are at our wit's end. That makes sense too. Both makes sense when you're in a storm, because a storm is something we can't control. This reminds me of a moment when Earnest Shackleton and his team were attempting to cross the Drake Passage. (If you're not familiar with Shackleton, you will be, I'm gonna talk a lot about him for a while.) The Drake Passage is the most dangerous body of water in the world, between the southern tip of South America and Antarctica. It's common for there to be 50-foot waves.The year was 1916, and Shackleton, along with five other men, were trying to make this voyage in a 26-foot sailboat … because it was the best they had. They almost died several times. They kept having to break off the ice that was starting to cover the boat. But all they could really do was hoist the sails and hold on … they needed the right wind. Which was not up to them. And I get that. But the good news for us is that we know who controls the wind. And therefore, in our storm, we do what the redeemed of God have always done when they're in trouble: we cry out to God! This is the refrain we underlined earlier, in verse 6, verse 13, verse 19, verse 28. It's repeated four times: “Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.”The pattern in this psalm is trouble, prayer, deliverance.Trouble, prayer, deliverance. Trouble, prayer, deliverance. Trouble, prayer, deliverance. And it's deliverance for what? What do we want deliverance for?Is it to be comfortable? This is where we need to think hard and be honest. Churches that are compromised by a love for comfort prefer to be in situations where God doesn't need to be God. Sometimes, if we're honest, many Christians want to be in a place where Jesus doesn't have to be real. Now, what's amazing about this room is that you're here. You're in the boat. And I know it's not easy. I'm preaching to the choir here, as they say. But we're gonna be able to stay in this boat together and make it through as long as Jesus is in the boat with us. And he is. And he will bring us through the storm. And not just the storm of present opposition, but the storm that is the journey through this world. Look what he can do in verses 33–42! We're pilgrims, y'all. Our home is that better country, that lasting city. And Jesus will lead us there … rescued from every trouble. Finally, here's the third truth to see:3. The redeemed of God respond with grateful praise. This is what we do because God is God, because Jesus is real: “Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man!”This refrain is verse 8, verse 15, verse 21, verse 31. And it's no surprise to us. If our experience is trouble, prayer, deliverance, then of course, our response is grateful praise.Trouble, prayer, deliverance, praise.And this grateful praise is not simply an action we do every now and then, but it is a way of life. Everyday we live grateful to God because we're saved! We are forgiven for all our sin! We are free from the power of Satan! Heaven is our home! God is our treasure!Some of you may know Steve Treichler.He's the senior pastor at Hope Community Church in Minneapolis. He's been there for like 100 years, and one thing I love about Steve is that he knows he's been saved. It's just fresh on his heart. Thinking about this sermon, I sent him a text yesterday and asked him: Steve, what's the secret? How do you keep that reality so fresh?He texted me back, and I gotta tell you what he said. He said — and I quote:“If I've got one spiritual gift it's that I remember where I came from. I remember what it was like to not know the Lord, to be lost, to be terribly afraid and without purpose.”And then he said: he remembers how the gospel came into his life and changed everything. He was lost, now he's found. Me too. Us too.Trapped, but now we're free. Defeated, but now we're saved. Afraid, now we're secure. And we can say:Through many dangers, toils, and snares,we have already come;Grace has brought us safe thus far,And grace will lead us home.And that's how we come to this Table.The TableWe come to this Table remembering from where Jesus has brought us. And that we have come to him. If you're here this morning and you've put your faith in Jesus, we invite you to eat and drink with us. Let's give Jesus grateful praise.

Message from Bryan Blazosky on August 9, 2026

Travis Joyce (Exodus 12:1-13)

Rev. 7 Today our focus is on those sealed by God, that he is to be praised for salvation, and that he is our shelter. So many days our praise can be divided and selfish, we need to focus on Him.

In this message, Dr. Roger Patterson continues our series on Heaven by diving into Revelation 19 and eschatology—the study of end times and future things . Discover what the Bible reveals about the end-time timeline, the significance of the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, and how our lives today prepare us for eternity with Christ . As the Bride of Christ, believers are called to live set apart—reflecting God's grace through good works, expectant waiting, and extending the gospel invitation to others .

What happens when we trade the God who made us for something we can see, control, and understand? Exodus 20:4–6 warns us not only against making physical idols, but against something much more subtle: making God into our own image. We want a God we can put in a box—a God whoagrees with us, makes us comfortable, and never challenges us. But the God of Scripture is infinitely greater than any version we could invent. He is both Lion and Lamb, holy and loving, majestic and near.And His jealousy is not the insecurity of a desperate God; it is the fierce love of a God who knows that nothing else can satisfy His people. In the end, the second commandment points us to Jesus, the true image of the invisible God, who came to shatter our false pictures of God and rescue us with His own blood. This sermon asks a simple but searching question: Will we worship the God who has revealed Himself, or will we keep worshiping a God we have made?

Why does worship mater?

Show Notes:: What do the Four Horsemen of Revelation really represent? Are they future events still waiting to happen, or do they reveal a pattern that has been unfolding throughout history? More importantly, what does Revelation 6 teach believers living in a world filled with war, economic uncertainty, persecution, and fear? In this week's episode of Real Talk Christian Podcast, Chris Fuller walks verse-by-verse through Revelation 6, examining the opening of the first six seals and the powerful imagery surrounding the Four Horsemen. Drawing connections to the Olivet Discourse, Old Testament prophecy, and the writings of the early Church Fathers, Chris explores how these visions reveal the sovereignty of Christ over history and the purpose behind God's unfolding plan. Grab your Bible and join us as we discover why Revelation 6 isn't meant to cause fear, but faith—calling believers to endure with hope, trust the reign of the Lamb, and faithfully proclaim the Gospel until Christ returns.   //Resources Used In This Episode// Revelation 6, Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21, Psalm 45:3–5, Matthew 24:14, Zechariah 1:8–11, Zechariah 6:2–5, Leviticus 26:25, Matthew 24:6–8, Matthew 20:2, Ezekiel 4:16, Matthew 24:7, Ezekiel 14:21, Matthew 24:8, Luke 21:11, Leviticus 4:7, Matthew 24:9, Matthew 24:13, Psalm 79:10, Isaiah 13:1, Isaiah 13:5–6, Isaiah 13:9–10, Isaiah 34:4–5, Matthew 24:29, Hosea 10:8, Luke 23:30 https://www.amazon.com/Revelation-Expository-Commentary-Thomas-Schreiner/dp/B0H4H8295T/ref=sr_1_5?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Yy6DXVtn9G9PhameoQ_9wNAGZUjqyE-E2f2xD5yXlBg0f-eRnxLsKghTFiP1BwDJEvizMLPMwtxFIi6Hc2e1QKjout7T4vbtf0O3IsNMC-9QgEiGJT-Pe592JE1TBvFeZDd40exG_n8FMrtgEKOZUI_E-U1Cq8z41v4f4NMqWMPpBScZpxIL5wKI1BnTXDap28GvLvkFV6YMoR3x8_6Pefh-Op0oP123aipsHoatkmM.UB9T6TPY6Qy8QHIpiLDYu-Xw55UpEnXsexiXMz-Rvrg&dib_tag=se&hvadid=792602072301&hvdev=c&hvexpln=67&hvlocphy=9258415&hvnetw=g&hvocijid=11665506615357143655--&hvqmt=e&hvrand=11665506615357143655&hvtargid=kwd-2227096079649&hydadcr=2931_13892005&keywords=revelation+thomas+schreiner&mcid=e42cbbe17e5b3031bfc1624f2b96caf0&qid=1785855398&sr=8-5 https://www.orcuttchristian.org/Gaius%20Marius%20Victorinus_Commentary%20on%20the%20Apocalypse%20of%20the%20Blessed%20John.pdf   //Other Episode You Might Enjoy// https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/168-am-i-spiritually-ready-a-look-at-matthew-251-13/ https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/bonus-wars-and-rumors-of-wars/ https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/263-misconceptions-about-heaven/ https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/076-the-rapture-of-the-church/ https://realtalkchristianpodcast.com/episodes/295-revelation-think-again/   // Helpful Links // https://www.youtube.com/@realtalkchristianpodcast The Christian Standard Bible: https://csbible.com Lifeway Christian Resources: www.lifeway.com Got Questions?: www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://www.crossformedkids.com RTC Quick Links: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast RTC Online: www.realtalkchristianpodcast.com Twin Valley Coffee:  https://www.coffeehelpingmissions.com Revive festival : Music Festival | En Gedi Music Fest | Leonidas, MI (myrevivefest.com) Let Them Live: https://letthemlive.org South Side Baptist Church - https://www.southsidesbc.org/ Hope Coffee - https://hopecoffee.com/ 

Every Christian longs for the fulfillment of God's promises—the Rapture, the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, the Millennial reign of Christ, and eternity with Jesus!

Comedian Gabby Lamb returns to SHENK with host Sara Weinshenk for an episode that goes everywhere. What starts as a conversation about Jellycats turns into debates about consumerism, environmental guilt, Disney adults, antidepressants, mental health, food recalls, travel, and Gabby's upcoming trip to Syria. Sara and Gabby riff through anxiety, stand-up comedy, medication, theme parks, Erewhon, social media algorithms, and why it's almost impossible to enjoy anything without overthinking it. It's equal parts hilarious, chaotic, and unexpectedly honest. If you enjoy comedy podcasts featuring stand-up comedians, off-the-wall conversations, dark humor, and unfiltered discussions, this episode is for you.

Today, our interdenominational Christian ministry serves the poor in primarily 17 countries throughout the Caribbean and Latin America. Thanks to our faithful donors, we are able to provide food, housing, healthcare, education, fresh water, emergency relief, micro-enterprise solutions and much more. We are proud to have fed millions of people and provided more than 15.7 billion dollars in aid. Our faith inspires us to be an organization built on compassion, and motivated by love.

We pray that by God's grace, and with your support, we can continue to bring relief to the suffering and hope to the hopeless.   Report on Food For the Poor by Charity Navigator https://www.charitynavigator.org/ein/592174510   -------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer from ACU.

What will the redeemed see and do before the throne of God? In this sermon on Revelation 7:9-17, Dr. Toby Holt connects Palm Sunday and Passover with John's vision of an innumerable multitude from every nation standing before God and the Lamb. He explains why salvation belongs to God, how Christ's blood makes sinners white, and why heaven's greatest joy is God's presence with His people. Questions this sermon answers: 1. How does Revelation 7 fulfill the imagery of Palm Sunday? 2. Who are the people in the great multitude wearing white robes? 3. What does it mean to be saved from God by God?Revelation 7 assures believers that Jesus wins, His redeemed will dwell before the throne, and God will wipe away every tear.

What if the battle you're fighting has already been won? In this powerful message from Movement Conference, Sadie Robertson Huff shares the life-changing truth of the gospel: through the death and resurrection of Jesus, the war against sin and death is already over. Walking through Matthew 28, Sadie challenges us to stop living like we're still defeated and instead receive the freedom Christ purchased for us. She explores why fear, insecurity, and unbelief often keep us from sharing our faith, and how the blood of the Lamb and the power of our testimony can change lives. This message is a compelling reminder that Jesus has already won and that good news is too good to keep to yourself.NEXT STEPS:Ask for prayer or connect with a pastor: https://freshlife.church/contactRegister your decision to follow Jesus and receive free resources: https://freshlife.church/know-godGive a financial gift to support what God is doing as we take steps forward to see the Gospel reach far and wide: https://freshlife.church/giveSUBSCRIBE:Sign up to receive encouragement straight to your inbox, and to stay up to date with announcements, events, and more: https://church.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=6ea4d82b2567db3e86b7767cd&id=451f2fe63eDon't miss a video!

“The Lamb is the light thereof.” — Revelation 21:23 Quietly contemplate the Lamb as the light of heaven. Light in Scripture is the emblem of joy. The joy of the saints in heaven is comprised in this: Jesus chose us, loved us, bought us, cleansed us, robed us, kept us, glorified us: we are here […]

In his teaching on Revelation 17, Nic explains the apocalyptic vision of God's final judgment on Babylon, depicted as a "great prostitute" to symbolize a seductive empire characterized by idolatry and covenant unfaithfulness. This specific imagery reveals how corrupt worldly systems use wealth and influence to lure people away from God, an enticement so deceptive that even the apostle John initially marveled at its allure. The vision further illustrates this harlot riding atop a beast—representing the unfaithful political and military powers of every era—as they unite to wage war against the Lamb. However, the Lamb decisively triumphs over these corrupt forces because He is the ultimate King of kings, ensuring that the evil of the fallen world will one day be entirely removed. In light of this promised victory, the church is called to resist the hollow temptations of worldly success and instead operate as a "church for the city," demonstrating allegiance to Christ by maintaining a prophetic witness of sacrificial love within a broken culture.
