Spiritual is vertical between you and a "higher power". Religion is horizontal between you and a group of like minded beliefs with no real connection with any perceived or believed "higher power". Atheism goes against who we are personally. Life doesn't work when we go against our own innate nature. In this Part 2 I continue to explore the ins and outs of the different facets of these varying belief systems.

Do you suffer from OBS (Older Brother Syndrome)? Discussion Questions: What does this parable teach us about the empty promises of sin? What motivated the prodigal son to want to go home? Have you found yourself preparing a script to grovel before God? Why? What does the father's reaction say about our Father? What does it say that the father went into FULL “party mode”? Do you ever suffer from OBS (Older Brother Syndrome)? What's the remedy? React to this statement: “You have always been with me, all that is mine is yours.”

We'll be in Matthew chapter 23 today if you want to find your place there now. Jesus is in the last week of His earthly ministry and conveying some important things to His disciples before He would leave them. In this passage He takes time out to point out the hypocrisy in the religious leaders. Essentially saying, don't be like them! They were putting on a good show, but we're not practicing what they preached. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29
In Matthew chapter 23 Jesus points out the great hypocrisy in the Pharisees. They were all about showing off, doing what they did to be seen by men. And they certainly didn't practice what they preached. Pastor John observes the same sort of behavior in much of the world today in his message!

Jesus addresses a group of people who are very concerned that their religious acts should be seen and observed by others. He insists that their religious acts are worthless if they are done for show—and he calls us instead to seek the approval of the Father and not of men.

As we continue our look at Matthew 23:1-2, we will see how false religion pursues self-exaltation, while true religion works to please God above all else.This sermon was preached at Legacy Reformed Baptist Church in East Grand Forks, MN. For more information visit LegacyRBC.org.
“Is religion basically good for humanity? Or are these institutional authorities obscuring something far better? In today's podcast and post, we witness Jesus giving five more curses to religion.

According to The Concise Oxford English Dictionary, the most common use of the name “Jesus,” is as a vulgarity. Secondly, it is an exclamation expressing surprise, impatience, etc. The name of Jesus can also be used to refer to the founder of Christianity. Pastor Colin talks about God's answer to this.

The first commandment says, “You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.” If this was just about swearing, it might make us wonder why God would include it in the Ten Commandments. Pastor Colin talks about what it means and why it's so important.

5/4/2025 Revelation 17 Mystery Babylon The One world religion Intro: Monday, February 4th 2017 On that day Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of al-Azhar, Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb, met together and signed ‘A Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together', a declaration calling for tolerance and peace among the nations of the world. There are over one billion Muslims and 1.3 billion baptized Catholics in the world. One out of every Four Americans are Catholic. That means that one third of all the people on the earth are either Catholic or Muslim. That does not include their influence on the rest of the world who are not adherents. The signing represents the first time there's ever been a papal visit to the Arab-Gulf states, while marking a historical breakthrough in Roman Catholic/Muslim dialogue. It's prophetic because of Revelation 17. Many think this is just religious Babylon. It is…..but much more than that.

Hi friends!Our anonymous guest is back this week to talk to about her decision leaving the UPCI. Fear is what keeps so many people in the pews but it can also be the thing that almost brings us back. Luckily, our guest learned how to handle things in a better way through therapy and psychiatry. Both things that she was told were against God's will.
Hi friends! This week we are back with a brand new guest who has decided to stay anonymous. Sometimes we may think that you have to be in these organizations for an extended amount of time for trauma to occur. That is not the case in this story. It often does not take long before the true colors of the leaders to come out and the pain to be front an center.**This episode discusses topics that may be triggering for some, proceed with caution**
Send us a messageLet us begin with the warning of Lord Jesus in Matthew 24:4: “See to it that no one deceives you!” With that sacred caution, in Matthew 24:24, our Beloved Savior revealed that there would be false Christs – false prophets – and false teachers among us – and that the enemy's deception would be so masterful and cunning – that even the elect would be in danger of being deceived. In both the Books Daniel and Revelation, God's Prophetic Word of Truth also makes certain that there will be a “One World Religious, Governmental, and Economic” Empire that will be ruled by the Antichrist for the seven-year period of the Tribulation. And that it will be a time of suffering that the world has never known before - or will ever know again. Only those who have been “born again” of the Spirit of the Living God will escapethis Righteous Judgment of the Lord God Almighty that will come upon the unbelieving of the world who rejected the love of the Truth so as to be saved.In this message, we expose the deceptive strategies the enemy is employing to lead as many as he can into his “One World” Religious deception – and most importantly how to be guaranteed freedom from his web of deception and ushered into Eternal Life in Jesus Christ the Lord!Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/
Send us a messageAs the Antichrist's “One World Religion” continues to be fashioned in “One World Governmental and Economic Empire” cooperation, the deceptions of the enemy are also working hand in hand to make their mark against the Truth of God's Word.One of his most strategic maneuvers involves the “Christ Consciousness” counterfeiting of the true Jesus of the Holy Scriptures which denies Who He really is; for the balance on which mankind's Eternal Life or death destiny is held depends on the true knowledge of Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God and the Great I AM – for He alone is the Glorious Risen Savior of the world – and the only Way unto Salvation's Eternal Life, in reconciliation oneness with the Father in Heaven.That is why by knowing the Holy Scriptures in Truth and only by the interpretation of the Holy Spirit Himself, will mankind be assured the true knowledge of the genuine “Christ” and His Glorious Salvation Power that alone will set man free from sin's death and all of the power of the evil one.Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/
Send us a messageIn Part 2 of our message, we learned how Roman Catholicism's Pontiff's – through the powers held within the Vatican and Holy See – have played a major role in the formation of the “One World Empire” of the coming Antichrist. And as we continue in Part 3, we will see how this spiritual/political alliance that was officially birthed from the petri dish of Constantine's decree that made false Christianity the state religion of Rome, and at which time it manifested as the blasphemous counterfeit of the true Church of Jesus Christ, has been pressing on in its global demonic goal. And as a marriage made in Hell – this Luciferian forgery has been growing in power and strength, having almost reached its fullness - as we approach the nearness of the Lord's Coming for us in the Rapture, and the last Prophetic realities that are unfolding all around us.Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/

And now having reached the year 2025, it has become even more evident that the Harlot, who is revealed in Revelation 17, is ready to mount the Beast and serve him in his Global Governmental and Economic endeavors.Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/

Send us a messageIn Chapter 17 of the Book of Revelation, we are introduced to the Harlot who ridesthe Beast, and in verses 3-5, we read the description of her as seen through the eyes of John the Apostle. The majority of Prophecy teachers and scholars who have sought the Holy Spirit's wisdom in Truth, believe that this Harlot is the Mother Church of Rome that is drawing every other false way into the Babylon Mystery Religion of the Antichrist - through her ecumenical seductions. In “The Promised Golden Age & The Coming One World Religion,” we take a penetrating look into the many religious interfaith endeavors that serve her in her seductions, and how she is almost ready to take her place next to the Antichrist as his darkened Bride.Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/
2024 Family Church Christmas Service
We wrap up our series "Losing my Relgion" with a conversation about the author of Galatians, the Apostle Paul.
In this episode of the In Search of More podcast, Eli Nash continues his conversation with Yoni Waysman, exploring the transformative power of emotional expression, vulnerability, and healing past traumas. They discuss the generational impact of sexual shame and its influence on relationships, emphasizing the need for balanced conversations that honor the sacredness of sexuality while rejecting both shame and permissiveness. Drawing from personal experiences, they highlight the importance of addressing deeply rooted familial issues and fostering healthier connections through open communication and self-awareness. The discussion also delves into navigating personal struggles, the evolving dynamics of parenthood, and the significance of meaningful connections in marital and family relationships.

Are you a believer? 84% of the world's population identifies with religion, yet intercultural education barely mentions the topic. In Part 1 of this two-part episode, Joseph Shaules and Ishita Ray explore the connection between culture and religion. We learn how culture shapes attitudes towards secular and religious values from: Sanne Bosma, Emre Seven, Torhild Liane Harr Skarnes, Luan Borges de Carvalho, and P. V Satyanarayana Raju. Religious studies scholar David Shaules argues that religion and culture are closely related, and that secular values do not magically make us neutral. In Part 2, we will hear the experiences of those navigating in and between religious and secular worldviews.
(Galatians 6:7-10) The promise of the gospel is that in due time, all that we go through and experience will be more than worth it...in due time.

Jesus fulfilled our obligation to the Law so that we can be joined to Him
We have the inheritance of God, because He has us
