As Christian's, we need to be carried away and filled with the Spirit each day. If we only read our Bibles and we don't have an active work of the Spirit in our lives, then we are missing a key aspect of our relationship with the Lord.

In today's study we see a picture of what eternity will look like, a place with no tears and where we will never thirst again because we are with the fountain of glory Himself!

In today's message Pastor Dave talks about the great white throne judgment. This is a judgment of the unsaved and Christ rejectors in the end times.

The days are growing to be exceedingly dark and deceiving. That is why we need to be sober, vigilant, and ready to stand for the truth till He calls us home!

There are a few schools of thought when it comes to the subject of the millennium reign of Christ in the book of Revelation.

In today's study through the book of Revelation, Pastor Dave takes us through an in depth study on the triumphal entry of the Lord in Revelation 19:11-21.
