Remember your leaders who spoke God’s word to you. Imitate their faith as you consider the way their lives turned out. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever!

Confident
So we are always confident, because we know that while we are living in the body, we are away from our home with the Lord. We live by faith and not by sight. We are confident, and we would prefer to leave the body and to be at home with the Lord. So our goal is to beContinue reading “Confident”
Live Love
We don’t need to write to you about the timing and dates, brothers and sisters. You know very well that the day of the Lord is going to come like a thief in the night.

imitators
We also thank God constantly for this: when you accepted God’s word that you heard from us, you welcomed it for what it truly is.

Brothers and sisters, you became imitators ofContinue reading “imitators”

For those who have will receive more and they will have more than enough. But as for those who don’t have, even theContinue reading “Parables”
Would you go?
