We are continuing our series through Revelation this week. Last week, in chapter 4, we saw the throne room of heaven opened before John, where God's glory and majesty were made evident by the worship around the throne. This week, in chapter 5, we...

This week we return to our study through the book of Revelation. We have already read of the first vision that John received - a vision of Jesus Christ in glory and His message to the churches. Chapter 4 begins a new vision containing three cycles of...

Once a year, we hear a biographical sermon on a Christian from the past. The Book of Proverbs teaches us that there is great value in an abundance of counselors (e.g. Prov. 11:14), and church history is one of those counselors, as it is full of...
