      Considering what we are seeing on the world stage in this hour and the signs of the end times that are being fulfilled, the command of Jesus to His disciples and to us is to take and preach the Gospel unto all the world. It is called The Great Commission.      In his letter to Timothy, Paul clearly stated the mystery of the Gospel: "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." (1 Tim. 3:16). Paul taught and explained the Gospel using the only scriptures that existed at that time: the Torah and the Prophets. The New Testament did not exist then. The Gospel of Salvation is not just a New Testament teaching. It was spoken of throughout the Hebrew scriptures as well. The importance of preaching the Gospel in these times was also prophesied by Paul: "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that i n ...

(v. 133, 105, also Ps. 85:12-13 ).      God's Word is the direction for our lives. It is like a user's manual written by the creator of...

      Remaining steadfast in our faith in God and Jesus Christ is the most important part of our walk as a Christian and faith has played a major role in the founding of this ministry from the beginning. Without faith, it is impossible to please God, the scriptures say. Some of the last words of Moses to the Israelites concerned their lack of faith: "Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten the God what formed thee. And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters. And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith...I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation."
