Healing the Sick - Pauls Thorn in the Flesh
May 10, 2017
Many of us have lots of questions about physical healing. This teaching explains clearly that the thorn in the flesh that Paul experienced was not a sickness, but a messenger of Satan. It did not make him sick, it buffeted him. Also, we examine the statement - by His stripes we are healed - and show it speaks of physical healing, not salvation.

Hell 02 - The Lake of Fire - Written
October 21, 2017
The phrase, “lake of fire,” is found five times in the Bible with all occurrences in the Book of Revelation (See 19:20, 20:11-15, 21:7-8, 21:27, and 22:14-15). The lake of fire is the “everlasting fire” spoken of by Jesus.

Homosexuality - Vile Passions - Lesbians & Homosexuals
May 10, 2017
This is a detailed written teaching of Romans 1:18-28. We start by looking at how slowly but surely, homosexuality has been accepted in the United States military.

At present, homosexuality is fully embraced at all levels of the military. We start the Romans teaching by...
