Practical application of Pentecostal theology in politics, economy and social issues
From Terry James: America is in a most precarious position while leaders in government take the nation in a direction directly opposite from godliness. That wicked direction is much like Paul outlines following Romans 1:28. Rabbi Jonathan Cahn present…
Is America nearing the end of the road as a nation? Have we reached a place similar to that of Judah just before Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylonians destroyed Jerusalem and the temple? Three times in the book of Jeremiah, the Lord tells the prophet not to pray for the people of Judah (Jeremiah 7:16, 11:14, […]

It’s a word that we often hear, but what does “glory” really signify? A popular worship song includes the phrase “show us your glory,” but can that request have an eternal ring to it? Dictionaries provide several facets of meaning for the word “glory.” I looked it up in the Merriam-Webster online dictionary and discovered […]

We live in “perilous times” on steroids. In one sense, the characteristics that Paul wrote about in 2 Timothy 3:1-5 have been true of godless people down through the ages. Such people have always made life “perilous” for those with biblical faith. On the other hand, these characteristics have become much more prominent in our […]

As the spirit of the antichrist gains more strength in our world each and every day, it helps to remember what Jesus said about the one behind it, the devil himself. In John 8:44, Jesus characterized Satan as “a murderer from the beginning” and “a liar and the father of lies.” The news headlines of […]

Suddenly! The word increasingly strikes fear into the hearts of many as they watch young and healthy people abruptly drop dead, just as Damon Hamlin did before a national audience. Unlike most, he had medical help immediately after he collapsed. The quote below comes from a January 2, 2023, Rasmussen Reports story. According to their […]

I love the words of Scripture. They form the basis for my hope of eternal life, provide needed assurance in times of trouble, and calm my soul during the turbulent times in which we live. Sometimes a passage or a phrase speaks to me in a new way. Such was the case with Exodus 2:23-25: […]

In 1920, Warren G. Harding ran for president with the campaign slogan of “The return to normalcy.” Despite harsh criticism for his use of such an obscure word at the time, the idea of returning to “normalcy” swept him into the Oval Office. His motto had great appeal to Americans in 1920 as they longed […]

Evil people have always conspired against the righteous. We see this in the words of David in Psalm 37:12: “The wicked plots against the righteous and gnashes his teeth at him.” Why, then, do the majority of people doubt that this happens today? Why do so many believers deny that there’s an apparent deadly intent […]

Jonathan Ellsworth Perkins was an early Assemblies of God pastor who served from 1924-1926 at the “5th and Peoria” Assembly of God in Tulsa. Perkins was an important early leader who wrote The Brooding Presence, one of the first AG boo…
“Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him” (Genesis 5:24). Enoch is a type of our future departure from the earth at Jesus’ appearing. Hebrews 11:5 tells us this about his sudden disappearance: “By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, […]
