Billy Graham’s Stunning Prophecy

2012-01-14T13:16:00.000-05:00

Billy Graham’s Stunning Prophecy The following quote was authored by Billy Graham in the year 1965. Turns out it was a prophetic word that has come to pass in our time. Multitudes of Christians within the church are moving toward the point where they may reject the institution that we

Church in the First Century; Ecclesia or Kuriakon ? Simply put ecclesia was: the name given to the civil governmental assembly of the city of Athens. Kuriakon was: something that pertains to, or belongs to, a lord. Ecclesia was the word originally used 115 times in the N.T. Kuriakon was the word originally used 2 times in the N.T In both of these cases, it is translated "the Lord's..

SMALL IS THE NEW BIG

Here is a excerpt from MorningStar and Rick Joyner. He elaborates on 'small is the new big'. But does he get it all? I think small includes house churches big time. According to a previous prophetic word, the turtles are moving out. (small church houses, self contained). Here is a portion of Rick Joyners word. "Several prophetic friends have been hearing from the Lord, “Small is the

Family or church organization?

2012-01-04T11:00:00.000-05:00

Simple Gathering Why do I love Simple Gathering? Simple: We are a family and Jesus is completely and absolutely, the head. We eat together, play together, we talk, we share revelations and words of knowledge, we sing with our understanding and we sing in the spirit, sometimes we share hard things. Everyone IS HEARD. People are real. No one is afraid of what others will think, they feel safe.

To put it in a sentence, organic church is not a theater with a script. It's a lifestyle-a spontaneous journey with the Lord Jesus and His disciples in close-knit community.

T. Austin - Sparks explains Organic Church as : "God's way and law of fullness is that of the organic life, in the Divine Order, life produces it's own organism whether it be a vegetable, animal, human or spiritual. This means that everything comes from te inside. Function, order and fruit issue from this law of life within. It was solely on this principle that we have in the New Testament

Ever read Graham Cooke? Twelve years ago in his book, A Divine Confrontation, Graham Cooke Brilliant Book House Graham wrote these words; "Many churches are not built for the battleground. If we are truly walking with Jesus, then we will partake of all the warfare that He provokes (Lk. 22:28). We must be ready for the storm that is to come. The anointing of the FIVEFOLD MINISTRIES is to add

Posted by admin/July 8, 2011 As Jesus entered the temple for the first time in the gospel of John, it says that He made a whip and began to drive out the money-changers, turn their tables over and spill out all their gains.

I had a dream. The characters in my dream were my grandson, Sammy, myself and our plumber - R.H.. Picture this: All of us are standing on the embankment of a river. Sammy is floating :). RH is peering under an overhang when he reaches into the cave like space. I sort of freak out and yell at him to stop, he might find a snake. But RH finds a turtle. He pulls out a turtle! So I lean over

A Culture of Honor

2011-06-01T17:24:00.001-04:00

I just listened to Bill Johnson talk about honor, respect and the Kingdom culture. I would recommend everyone listen to this teaching. Years and years ago I was first introduced to this idea, it goes like this. Honor them and they might honor you. Respect them and they might respect you too. But it is for sure, if you don't honor or respect the other person you have limited the relationship

What is Simple Gathering

2010-11-18T14:59:00.002-05:00

Simple Gathering is several families coming together at someone's home to lift Jesus up in worship, prayer, ministry with each other and learning something new together. We share in the Lord's Table and sometimes the whole Lord's Supper. We always sit around and share our stories while munching on snacks such as popcorn. * "We value participation over performance, learning over lecture, and

Com' on everybody who are you aiming your guns at? Yeah, I know hunting season is almost here, the activity in the woods, in the blinds and hunting lodges is kicking into high gear. Once the hunters complete their preparations they head for the woods and wait. Hopefully, a nice sized buck will come close enough for a good shot. Bang! a trophy for the wall and meat for the freezer all in one

I have read Matthew 18: 15-17 hundreds of times, dissecting the grammar and the Greek. But I never read it IN CONTEXT. 15"If your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault, just between the two of you. If he listens to you, you have won your

If you have never tried Christian meditation please read this blog. How many moms and dads out there listen to their children and listen and listen . . . and never speak themselves? Or better yet, is it okay to receive letters from your husband or fiance and never, ever write back or have a two way conversation? Ridiculous of course. Parents want to talk with their children even when the kids

Most of my life, I didn't understand my calling. Was I a teacher, maybe a musician? But it has all become crystal clear. Let me explain. Mark and I love small groups and to this end have helped start 7 groups, at different times in different communities, starting back in 1990. Several are still going. God spoke to me recently (in the secret place) and said simply you are a (small group)

the Journey

2009-07-17T12:48:00.000-04:00

I began my Jesus Journey as a child, growing up in the Catholic church. I was passionate about God then and I am passionate about God now. As a teenager and into my early twenties, I made it through the 'hippy' revolution relatively unscathed. I did join the flower children in San Fransisco and experienced the disillusionment of conventional belief systems. But I also experienced the hippy
