Caring for the Children of the World

Does God care about children?  I hope you don't have to ask that.  All over the Bible we see God emphasizing the importance of children and the blessing that they are.  In the Gospels we see Christ highly valuing kids and rebuking His disciples for trying to keep them away from Him.  The big question…

The Beginning of Judgment

In the previous message on Revelation, we looked at the struggle of reconciling God's love with the picture of His judgment painted in Revelation 6-22.

What are you Seeking?

30 A.D. was a tough time to be a Jew in Jerusalem.  Oppression by Rome, corrupt rulers, oppressive taxes.  There was a deep longing for a deliverer, someone who would fix things and who would be a worthy ruler to follow; but what does that mean?  Do all agree one what it means to "fix…
