THINK LIKE JESUS
The Health guru says, “You are what you eat.” But that is not correct. “You are what you think!” The attitudes of your inner man is what you really are: “As a man thinks in His heart, so is he!” (Pr.23;7) Christians are to live with each other in such a way that the reality…
Read MoreThe Missing Illustration
Yesterday we looked at “Are You A Christian, Evaluating Your Claim To Christianity” at Kitwe Church. In Mark 4 Jesus answers the question why so many professing Christians “fall away” and never bear fruit.

Read MoreOne Philosophy – To Live Is Christ, To Die Is Gain
What is your philosophy of life? To what in life would you respond with the words, “Man! This is Living!”? Everyone lives by a set of values – things you believe are important.

1 Corinthians 3: 9b-17 Today we will resume a series that Phil and I have started long ago, before Easter. The subject of this series is “The Pictures of The Church.” The question we are seeking to answer is, “What is a church?” So far in this series we have seen that “The Church is…

2 Co 4:16-18 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are…
