Testimonies to the practical reality, revelations and power of Jesus Christ
According to a World Death Clock on the Internet, approximately 56,000,000 people die annually. About 4,679,450 people die monthly, about 153,420 die daily and about 6,390 die hourly. “We’ve all gotta die sometime,” they say. “When your number’s up, that’s it!” True to the first statement, not true to the second one. And as it is …

Referring to death, “It behoves us all to be prepared,” said the old saint to my wife and I at our first meeting many years ago. We’ve never forgotten him or his words. I thought of them again last Sunday when learning of the deaths of what’s reported to be at least 160 people when …
Said the seventy disciples of Jesus to Jesus upon their return from ministry, Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name Luke 10:17. When was the last time you heard your church leaders tell you demons are subject to you in Jesus name? Better still, when was the last time you actively confirmed that …
A well-known British atheist and entertainment personality was recently asked what he would say if he came face-to-face with God. Response: “I’ll say: bone cancer in children, what’s that about?

The pastor told a few men in his church that if they wanted the power of God, the quickest way to get it was to undertake a six week fast, which is what he once did. The men were impressed; in his ministry they saw he had the power. As well as being an excellent expository preacher and teacher, he regularly …
Initial contact was made between us after both John and his wife Rebecca viewed a thought-provoking, thirty-second television message which asked questions about life after physical death. John phoned the church the morning after its presentation and asked if someone would come and visit with them for further discussions. The day he phoned was Anzac Day …

Some church denominations combined for the purpose of promoting television messages which asked questions about death. They were thirty second spots asking something like, “What happens after death?” and, “Where do we go when we die?” As a result of that promotion, many people rang a church in their local area seeking further information or …
The New Testament tells Christians that God uses us, to make clear what it means to know the Lord Jesus Christ. It is like a fragrance that fills the air. To most people we are a deadly fragrance – a stench, a bad smell unto death, while to others we are a life-giving fragrance – a sweet …
