Have you ever considered what God is doing in your spiritual life? What's the goal?  How do we progress as Christians? What tools does God use to help us grow into maturity? These questions come into focus when we consider that our edification and growth happens as God gifts and empowers his church toward the end of spiritual maturity.

Paul, using the metaphor of a Christian marriage, reveals a ‘profound mystery’.  We, the church, are The Bride of Christ. The unconditional, sacrificial, and eternal love of Christ for his bride is indeed profound. It elicits a response of joyful submission and radical obedience from his church.  Come join us this Sunday to explore this truth together through the word of God. 

The church is a group of people who profess and give evidence that they have been saved by God's grace, who are committed to God's people and God's mission, and who exist and gather for God's glory. God's plan is not only to save individuals but to establish His people, the church. But why does God do it in this way, and how is it built?

As we consider the future eternity of the Kingdom of God in the new heavens and new earth John closes the book of Revelation with an epilogue. These final verses provide commentary from an angel, John and Jesus himself. Each witness encourages us to consider how we  look at the testimony of this book and how we ought to live today in light of God's sure word about the future.

John completes his description of the capital city of the new heavens and earth by showing us the brilliance of the new Jerusalem. Radiant and pure it's the home of all those who are written in the Lambs book of life. In the last chronological verse in the Bible we see where we will spend all eternity in the presence of God. 

*10-10-21*

The judgment upon Satan, the False prophet, and the Anti-Christ has fallen and now the works done on the earth are exposed before the great white throne of God. We see the lake of fire and the new creation contrasted as the final destiny of all people. This passage proclaims the inevitable truth that we will all spend eternity somewhere based on our response to the Lamb. 

*10-03-21*

The promised Kingdom of God through the rule and reign of Jesus Christ has arrived. This much-debated chapter shows us Christ visibly ruling and reigning from Jerusalem for 1000 years and fulfills various Old Testament passages that see Jerusalem's king as the ruler of all nations. 

*09-26-21*

Heaven is opened and the Christian's greatest hope has arrived. Jesus Christ, revealed in resplendent glory and surrounded by the armies of heaven arrives to judge the anti-christ and false prophet and make war with all those who have stubbornly refused to repent of their sins.
