May the Lamb of God receive the reward for His suffering. My mom, said this message needs to go around the world; my dad said one of the most or the most powerful message ever. Bias? Probably, but still take a listen and decide for yourself. It is on the Presence of the Lord and rejoicing IN the Lord Always, even from a horrible prison, where Paul penned those words.

Joy comes from His presence AND by learning to bring up Joy through rejoicing. We tend to rejoice after good news, but the Bible teaches to rejoice BEFORE the good news. It's called FAITH.

What did Paul teach about homosexuality? Is there any wiggle room with what Paul wrote? Also you will hear a powerful testimony from someone who was molested as a child, how it produced same sex desires in him, and how the Lord led him to freedom.

"Jesus never condemned homosexuality." Or did He?

"The Old Testament prohibition no longer applies." Or does it?

"The Bible says nothing about same sex marriage." Oh really?

Truth and love must come together on this subject. In fact if "truth" isn't spoken, IT ISN'T LOVE. But truth can be spoken in a very unloving way. We must embrace truth and bathe it in love.

Jeff and Roxanne are missionaries we have supported for 20 plus years. They have a deep love for Muslim people and shared with us God's heart for all people.

Outstanding message by Ryan. DO SOMETHING!

Where is the abundant life? Where and what are the blessings promised in the New Covenant? Continuing with the theme from last week; is God controlling everything, we deal with many more "shallow answers" we often give to PAIN.

Is God in Control? Yes. Is man in control? Yes. How can that be? Take a listen, and next week I will hopefully cover things I wasn't able to in this message. One thing I don't like: God getting blamed for things the devil did, or my sin caused or someone else's sin caused.
