Fire On Your Head

By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.

For he was… Continue reading

This a letter that my friend Josh Kirkland sent me. It is a response that he gave a pastor friend who sent him a teaching in support of the  pre-trib rapture doctrine.

Just a couple of days ago I got the privilege of preaching to my third year class in bible college. I felt like God put this theme on my heart from 1 Thess. 4:1-12 and so I wanted to put up some of my notes up on that.

How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!

It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron’s beard, down upon the collar of his robes.
