““And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;” I Thesssalonians 4:11 In this society and time, saints seem to have the tendency to stay in a state of busyness. This is a focus on the issues of this life,... Continue Reading →

Php 2:25 Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labour, and fellowsoldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.

God perfectly provides the Body of Christ with a strategic edification-education process whereby saints are progressively established and matured; it is contained within Roman’s-Philemon.

The Feast of Dedication is an 8-night celebration. This year, the feast will be from Dec. 14-22. The... Continue Reading →
