Brother Sam concludes the series on Galatians in chapter 6 He emphasises something poignant in verses 1-3; how we handle fallen brethren in the church of our Lord.

It seeks to restore those who have fallen. We realize we can be ge...

Galatians 4 Brother Sam continues his exposé on the book of Galatians in the series. From verses 1–8, he shows the necessity of the law to show the exceeding sinfulness of man.

Brother Sam continues the teaching series on Galatians and shows us succinctly the works of the law and the gift of grace in Christ Jesus He shows the error of legalism from Galatians 3, honing down on our context.

Sister Ijeoma continues her series on the message of the apostle John from John 7. She further explains how the writing style of the book and the works done by Jesus are evidence of the true God.

Brother Sam exhorts us from Matt 7:13-14. He admonishes us on one of the vehicles on the highway to hell. The vehicle of negligence/carelessness is the one sure vehicle that will lead us to destruction.

We remain on the narr...

Brother Seye shares an exhortation on the hope of a Christian from Psalm 116. The spirit of faith is the one that speaks about the hope of the believer in eternity and not the common declaration of a desire for God as it has been commonly taught. Our hope is not in this world, the speaking isn't to change the afflictions or persecutions it is a speaking about the hope of resurrection we have i...

Brother Sam expounds the text on the lady who washed Jesus' feet with her tears and wiped His feet with her hair on His visit to Simon’s house.

In this teaching, Brother Seye Maj walks us through the gift and work of repentance in the Christian faith.

She admonishes us to seek God not as the means to an end but as the end in Himself. What is the bread for you in this age...

Brother Seye continues the teaching series on Contra Mundum (against the world) He shows us that fighting the good fight of faith is as much within the church for sound doctrine as it is without from unbelievers, just as Athanasius had in his days.
