Session 8 – The Throne Room of the Universe Pt2 In the previous session we saw a glimpse of Heaven as John is ‘caught up‘ and told “Come up here and see the things which must be ‘after these things’” – literally, things that are to occur after the church age. John is then ‘immediately’ […]

Over the last few weeks we have looked at 4 of the 7 churches that Jesus sent letters to, as recorded in Revelation 2 & 3 .

Back in October 2015 The Independant reported “Sweden ‘fast becoming world’s first cashless society’”[1]. In May last year the we read that the “UK moves towards cashless society” [2], and at the same time […]
In our verse by verse study through Paul’s Epistle to the Galatians we find that Paul makes some almost throw-away-comments, yet they prove to be keys that unlock some Old Testament mysteries! It seems that the Holy Spirit has left us clues in the New Testament that reveal or help to explain things in the […]
In our Sunday Morning studies, we are currently going through Paul’s Epistle to the Galatians. It is regarded by some as one of Paul’s greatest and most important letters. Dr Merrill Tenney said “Few books have had a more profound influence on the history of mankind… Christianity might have been just one more Jewish sect, […]
