They built a building
Bricks and Mortar stood
Proclamations abounded.
Money, Time, Hopes,
All poured out;
Teaching, Learning, Having.
I went to them.
From what they had, they gave what I would take.

How unspeakably lovely is the release of Christ’s strength! There are no words among men to describe the wonderous release He offers.

Peace and Safety
The beginning of the end is not marked by a crescendo of rebellion. It is marked by a flat line of the peace of man.
What time is it?
1 Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, 2 for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
