Whatever happened to sin? As far as the culture is concerned sin seem to be disappearing. This is because sin is being declassified. This is being done in three ways:

1. Make the guilty one the victim.

Pastor Richard O'Ffill is an author, international revivalist and seminar speaker. He has served in Southern Asia, and Latin America, as well as North America. Pastor O'Ffill believes that a Holy God, through the Holy Spirit, is developing a holy people for the soon return of Jesus Christ. For his fundamental beliefs click here.

Because one of the Holy Spirit's thrusts in the last days is to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children and the children to the fathers, the direction of his ministry has become basic. Burning within him is a desire to see families restored by God's grace. This will be accomplished as God's people learn and exercise the fruit of the Spirit on a daily basis in their homes. As a husband, father and grandfather, Pastor O'Ffill knows from experience that the Christian life must be lived at home.  Because the church is an extension of the home, revival must start in the home before the church experiences it.

Pastor O'Ffill is currently taking speaking appointments for 2011.

From the featured Sermon - Can There Be Unity in Diversity?

" The purpose of this sermon is not whether or not we should admit diversity or if we should respect diversity, but rather whether or not we should emphasize diversity at the expense of unity. To put it in plain language, the question is: Shall we dwell on that which makes us different or shall we seek to find that which we have in common? To correctly answer this question is important in building and maintaining the strength of a nation, but it is indispensable for the mission, if not the very existence, of the church."

" Though the body is made up of many parts, the hand is not the body, neither is the leg nor the eye. Yet the hand and the eye are necessary if the body is to be complete. The issue is not that the body should ignore the hand or that the hand demand that the body care for it; the issue arises when the hand thinks only of its own interests and forms an alliance with all the other hands. The hands then become what we would call a special interest group. No longer do they think of the best interest of the body, but only of the best interest of the hands. The body of Christ should be concerned with each individual part of the church. On the other hand, each individual part of the church should not think only of itself, but rather of the well-being of the body. I believe here is where we have gotten off the track. If I follow the way things are going now, I would think only of myself and my group, and I expect everyone else to do the same."

" The Devil's strategy is to divide and conquer. What seems to be caring and compassionate in today's society, and even in the church, can end up breaking us up as a body. This is no time to emphasize our differences, but it is time we go to God's Word and root and ground ourselves in a "Thus saith the Lord." Our unity must be in Christ as revealed in His Word. Unity that is based on consensus and compromise among agonized special-interest groups is not the unity that Christ prayed for when He prayed that we might be one as He and His Father are one."


"The Fruit of the Spirit (It's What You are that Counts). This is one of Pastor O'Ffill which can be purchased at Adventist Book Centers everywhere. A true Christian is one whose heart is not only swept clean but is filled in a wonderful and mysterious way with the Holy Spirit. If and when we are able to comprehend this truth, the effect on our personal lives, our families, and, subsequently, on the life of the church will be imediate. The themes in this book include living the Christian life, finding forgiveness, dealing with sin, rejecting antichrist(s), living in love, understanding the role of the Ten Commandments in the Christian life, and having confidence in our salvation through Jesus Christ.
