Open Door Fellowship

What if i told you the antichrist is here? But it might not be what you think, Understanding the anti-christ means we will understand the spirit of the antichrist. Today, Pastor Steven talks about the growing evil in our world.

Today Pastor Steven teaches us a real rarity: The world we live in is not getting better. Quite the opposite is true: The world is more scary, more dangerous, and more hopeless. Therefore we must be aware, and watching and waiting, but we must also be working.

What we find as students of the Bible is a beautiful harmony between the scriptures. Today, Pastor Steven will outline a wonderful unity between Matthew 24 and Revelation.

The Bible, and the New Testament, in particular, are filled with signs for the second coming. The signs are present in our lifetime and we should expect to see a greater and greater shadow of their effects. In today's study, Pastor Steven will discuss the second coming signs as given to the disciples by Jesus.

Pauls writes to a young church seeking to inform them, because they have misunderstood or have been mislead after he departed. His words were meant to bring them comfort concerning death, and the return of Christ! What we learn is simple: biblical prophecy brings a great peace into our lives.

Our associate pastor JP Handy shares a message about the wisdom of God.

The Bible, and the New Testament, in particular, are filled with signs for the second coming. In this passage Jesus outlines the sign {s} of his return. The greatest sign might just surprise you.

Many find it difficult to study the “signs of the times.” Are we living in the last days of earth’s history? How would we know? Can we know? Is it for us to know? In this series we will learn that while we watch and wait, we are also to be ready to work!

Perseverance is an essential component to the spiritual discipline of faithfulness. God has called us to be light. Let us shine as bright lights in a dark world and hold out the word of life for others to see and read! What is clear is that both in our character and conduct we should be pure, while at the same time we are placed in a hostile world, that will test us! What are we to do? Pastor Steven says we should: Persevere.

The Hope of eternal life is real, and changes our lives and our living. Today one of our own college students called to ministry shares a message on the new birth and the life that brings to each of us.

Paul says: My Goal is to know Christ! To be like him in every way and to be all Christ has in mind! This Goal of Paul absorbs all of Paul’s energy and efforts! Let this be an example for each of us! Do not take your eyes off the goal of knowing Christ and making HIM known!

Should our culture grow more hostile it would be of utmost importance for those who are unbelieving to see within us: A touch of joy that is real, a heart that is happy, a conviction that is clear, a conversation that is consistent, and a behavior that is bold. On every given day we should live life in light of a salvation that is so great!

That the follower of Jesus Christ should commit themselves to live godly lives. Why? As pastor Steven explains, the single most effective advertisement for making the gospel attractive to others is an authentic life lived well in the world we walk through.

Being a Christian is serious business, not a sour business. We must not neglect our great gift, lest we get left in the drift. This is a passage picturing the believer being stationary and the river flowing and passing a person by.

Vigilance is an essential component to the spiritual discipline of watchfulness. To be vigilant is to be on guard. As soldiers of the cross, we are surrounded by enemies, and we must not neglect the gift given to us. Today Pastor Steven encourages each of us to live in faithfulness lest we drift.

Regardless if we share with 1 or with 3000 we are to be faithful to obey the prompting of the Holy Spirit and preach the Gospel as God gives opportunity.

Even in a culture that was hostile, and uncertain the people of God were faithful to the task given to them, and as a result they experience a great time of refreshing.

Prayer connects us to God. Why then do most people wait for an emergency in their lives to pray? We call upon God in times of desperation. People in their human nature will exhaust every other resource before they put their faith in God and call upon His name. We all have come to learn that our conditions don't have to be ''desperate'' in order for us to cry out to God, but there is power in a heart that is earnestly praying to God.

Do you find yourself tired, worn out by your circumstances, feeling like your spiritual tank is on empty? Let the awesomeness of God refresh and reinvigorate your faith today as you study this passage and wait upon the Lord.
