Be careful, Jesus said to them, be on your guard against the yeast (leaven) of the Pharisees and Sadducees...Then they understood that He did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees." - Matthew 16:6,12
In Matthew 13, Jesus had taught His disciples that the Kingdom of God would leaven the earth like yeast leavens bread. But in Matthew 16 He warned them to beware of another kind of yeast...bad teaching.

Holy Violence
November 14, 2020 • Pastor Ray McCollum
And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. - Matthew 11:12 As the fate of our nation hangs in the balance, the time has come for the true Church of God to rise up and recover what the enemy is trying to steal. We do not need physical force. But we do need "Holy Violence".
The Unshakable Kingdom
November 7, 2020 • Pastor Ray McCollum
How long, O Lord, must I call for help, but you do not listen? Or cry out to you, "Violence!" but you do not save? Why do you make me look at injustice? Why do you tolerate wrong? - Habakkuk 1:2-3 Has there ever been a time when the faith of God's people been so sorely tested? The answer is, 'yes'; and the little Book of Habakkuk offers prophetic encouragement for us in an hour when the forces of darkness seem to hold the upper hand.
