Mom, Madre, Mam, Mum, God?

May 5, 2021 By Harold Long 1 Comment

“When Eve was brought unto Adam, he became filled with the Holy Spirit and gave her the most sanctified, the most glorious of appellations. He called her Eve, that is to say, the Mother of All.

March 25, 2021 By Harold Long Leave a Comment

“Bethlehem was God with us, Calvary was God for us, and Pentecost is God in us.” ~ Robert Baer The Christmas story is mysterious, magical, miraculous, and apocalyptic. God came to earth as a fetus, born from above and with the same free will we possess, and yet Jesus never strayed from God’s plan for… Read More »

We Were Reborn

March 22, 2021 By Harold Long Leave a Comment

“Many Christians have the mistaken notion that eternal life begins when they die. But that is not biblically accurate. Eternal life begins when we are born again into the Kingdom of God.” ~ David Jeremiah  What if someone asks you “what does it mean to be born again,” how would you respond? There are many… Read More »

Simple Faith: Starting Over As A Child

October 12, 2020 By Harold Long Leave a Comment

Hello Saints, Today’s blog piggybacks on the message from Sunday, October 11, 2020, titled “A Simple Kind of Faith.” I felt it was imperative to emphasize this prominent point that Jesus drove home to his disciples, and that includes you and me. My hope is that you seriously take a look at your life and… Read More »
