Jesus used the phrase “weeping and gnashing” on five different occasions in the Bible. It is a prophetic warning about the pain, the anger, the sorrow, the regret, the remorse and the sense of loss that will be felt on getting into heaven without being ready for it. All those who end up weeping and gnashing their teeth would have missed out on the eternal rewards they could have had in heaven! They will miss the joy they could have had and they will miss the crowns of glory. Renowned author, Dag Heward-Mills in his usual unequivocal style, describes the frightening reality of how many ...

Husbands if you want to hear God say, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant,” at the judgment seat of Christ, there is a simple way to achieve that. Give up your life for your wife's.

Repentance is a very beautiful biblical concept that suffers from being misunderstood and misapplied. Far more than just remorse, penance, or confession, The 180 Project gives the reader the correct definition of repentance according to God's Word and shows the powerful, life-changing transformation that occurs in a believer when repentance is exercised. Far from being a negative concept, repentance brings positive benefits to the Christian life.

Christians get in trouble when they do not know how to exercise their authority in Christ. Remember, sin has been dealt with on the Cross, but Satan has not yet been thrown into the lake of fire. He is still active in the Earth today, resisting the work of God and those belonging to him. Satan will try to attack our bodies with sickness and our minds with oppression. His goal is to keep us from doing what God has called us to do.

With all of the numerous variations of Apostolic/Kingdom ministry going on, we need to narrow our view, and with focused intent clearly define what it means to be truly apostolic.

We may as well try to prepare for the next extinction-level event.
