In the coming year, the members of God’s Church will face increasing pressure against maintaining a firm position on God’s truth. It will be a year of challenge and change. The change will be all around us and the challenge will be “holding fast.” We will have reason to be very mindful of the Apostle…

In just a few days, the world will celebrate the beginning of another year.  Billions of people will participate either by watching through mass media or physically joining in the festivities.  To the masses, this practice is secular, enjoyable, and serves as a time to bring the world together.  On the surface this may appear…

Nothing motivates people better than emotions. When we allow our natural instinctive feelings to create a state of mind, we are being emotionally driven. We all have emotions as a part of God’s wonderful design of the mind. God has emotions and we have the capability via the spirit in man to share those emotions.…

The Ministerial Conference held on the weekend of December 7th and 8th in El Paso, Texas was productive on several levels. It was undoubtedly due to God’s benevolent intercession through His Spirit and as a result of your faithful prayers.

A Greek philosopher by the name of Epictetus once said, “People are disturbed not by a thing, but by their perception of a thing.” He wrote that in the first century AD and it is no doubt just as easily applicable in our present dispensation.

Scripture does not decree the setting aside of one day in a year to be thankful for the bountiful blessings of the land. But scripture does decree that God’s people be a thankful people. God has…

Have you ever wondered, “Just how bad is it… really, in terms of human stability at this very present time?” Those of us who have grown up in God’s Church or who have been a part of it for any length of time, have heard, read and contemplated end time, prophesied events fairly extensively. We…

The American Civil War, like all wars, was a brutal one. More Americans died in it than in all the wars our country has been involved in from that time forward, up through the Korean War. That is hard to believe, isn’t it? All we have to do to confirm it is to consult the…

As we come off the Feast, we are mindful of the fact that the individual components of the body of Christ are being trained for responsibility in God’s Kingdom. Leadership in today’s social climate is a confused commodity. Part of the reason for this is that it is often seen as an opportunity that provides…

In an effort to create more points of contact on the Internet for The Father’s Call we have begun development of a YouTube page: Building the Foundation. Our intention is to create more short introductory videos that will link to messages on The Father’s Call website. We will also be adding graphics to enhance the…

We are days away from beginning the third Feast season of the year when we are to appear before our God. His Holy Days spell out a fantastic future for all mankind. This plan is unimaginable to most people. To face the immediate future with faith and confidence, we need to grasp the reality of…
