Holy War in Israel and a European Army—Comments on News and Prophecy, May 8, 2021
The current violent situation in Jerusalem and the formation of a European Army are to be seen in a dark and foreboding context of prophesied events which will culminate in unspeakable misery and pain. Combined with the final emerging of the mark of the beast, the ongoing suppression of free speech and the rejection and persecution of Christian values in many “civilized” countries, we ought to realize that Christ’s return could not be that far off.
Lessons From the Early Church
The early Church was bold, quickly growing and full of faith! And yet, they experienced extreme circumstances. What enabled them to keep on going in the face of great odds? What can we take away from that time and apply it to the times we currently live in and the time that is coming soon?
Governmental Attacks on Freedom to Speak and to Worship–Comments on News and Prophecy, May 1, 2021
In this message, we will discuss attacks by governments and the mass media on our freedom to speak and to worship, as well as persecution and unconstitutional actions, in Germany, the USA, Canada and the UK.

Paul’s Challenges
Job and His Friends
What can we learn about the subtleties of right and wrong in the story of Job? The counsel of Job’s friends provides us with a provocative example of how one can arouse the wrath of God by having the wrong attitude.
Beyond a Doubt
Doubt is a word that we use in our everyday lives—perhaps even overuse. There are so many examples of how we express doubt in our lives, and it can creep into our relationship with God the Father and with Jesus Christ. In this Split Sermon, we will discuss the insidious nature of doubt and explore scriptures that can offer a pathway to strengthen our bond with Jesus and our obedience to God’s Commandments. Doubt can be like a poison in many ways, and faith and confidence in Jesus Christ arethe antidote.
The Better Way
The world tells us that the right way to live adheres to a moral standard founded in little more than what feels right. The end result is a self-indulgent model of ethics focused on glorifying man rather than God. The Bible tells us that there is a better way of living that leads us to a truly positive and fulfilling life.
God of Heaven
How do you even begin to know God? Who is God? Where is God from and where is God right now? God is revealed in the Bible—are you among the very few who understand?
God’s Hands
The Bible tells us that “It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God” (Hebrews 10:31). But it is also a tremendous opportunity if we have the faith to take advantage of it.
