Unmerited Favor
1 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. 2 Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. --Acts 2:1-3
Welcome to Unmerited Favor
Our vision is to spread the Word, the Gospel of Grace; the unmerited favor that has been freely given to us through the blood sacrifice of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, Through Him, the Prince of Peace , Adam's sin is washed away, the fig tree withered, and the Glory of God now waits to clothe those who confess their sins and invite Christ Jesus into their lives.
The New Covenant, given first to Abraham is given again, and the yoke of the Law lifted from our shoulders. The gift of God's unmerited favor is offered freely to everyonel. All you are required to do is open your heart and accept it. Death is forever defeated! Through Christ Jesus we are set free! Give praise to God. Sing Hallelujah!
Pentecost
' Pentecost (Greek: Πεντηκοστή [ἡμέρα], Pentēkostē [hēmera], "the Fiftieth [day]") is a prominent feast in the calendar of Ancient Israel celebrating the giving of the Law on Sinai, and also later in the Christian liturgical year commemorating the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the remaining eleven disciples of Christ (Judas had hanged himself) after the Resurrection of Jesus.[1] The feast is also called Whit Sunday, Whitsun, or Whit, especially in the United Kingdom, where the following Monday was traditionally a holiday. Pentecost is celebrated seven weeks (50 days) after Easter Sunday, hence its name.[2] Pentecost falls on the tenth day after Ascension Thursday.
Among Christians, Pentecost commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Twelve apostles and other followers of Jesus as described in the Acts of the Apostles 2:1-31.[3] For this reason, Pentecost is sometimes described as the "Birthday of the Church."
The Pentecostal movement of Christianity derives its name from the New Testament event.'
In one of his sermons Pastor Joseph Prince emphasizes that on the first Pentecost when the Law was given at Mount Sinai, three thousand people died(Exodus 32:28). On Pentecost following Christ's Resurrection, the Holy Spirt descended upon the Apostles and that day three thousand souls were saved. Hallelujah!
King of the Jews
After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.” -- Matthew 2:1
Who were these Magi from the East, and what exactly did they see in the sky that told them a King of the Jews had been born?
The Star of Bethlehem
The Star is a wonderful documentary that provides startling answers to these questions. After you see this trailer, please order the movie and watch it with your whole family at Christmas time. You will find your Faith born again.
