Recently, I have been corresponding with a few fellow Christian’s to include here on Christian Forums who have stated that they have had enough of trying to fit in with other’s who claim to be Christians in modern “church” venues and yet do most everything in a way that conforms to this world...
The Gospel of Jesus Christ tells us that the kingdom of heaven is already here: “When asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God will not come with observable signs. Nor will people say, ‘Look, here it is,’ or ‘There it is.’ For you see, the...
“Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to His disciples: “The scribes and Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So practice and observe everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy, burdensome loads and lay them on men’s shoulders, but...
The scriptures tell us that part of God's plan is for Jesus to return to this earth sometime in the near future to rule and then judge both the living and the dead. He will then establish eternal peace in a new heaven and a new earth. Jesus said, "The Son of Man is going to come in his Father's...
“The first man Adam became a living being;” the last Adam a life-giving spirit. The spiritual, however, was not first, but the natural, and then the spiritual. The first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven. As was the earthly man, so also are those who are of the earth...
I recently received an email from someone who said they were contemplating meaning from Malachi chapter three as it pertains to today’s Christians. I read and reread this chapter repeatedly and the Spirit opened my eyes to a great truth of this passage in scripture pertaining to His people...
In the Gospel according to John, Jesus explains to Nicodemus what a person must do to gain eternal life. Jesus said, "Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again." "How can a man be born when he is old?" Nicodemus asked. "Can he enter his mother's womb a...
Near the end of Jesus' ministry and a few days before the Passover, Jesus once again prophesied of his death. He told his disciples that soon he would be handed over to be crucified. Satan was now heavily influencing the religious leaders, those who wanted to kill Jesus, so the chief priests and...
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom His favor rests!" (Luke 2:14). That is what the angels were singing when Jesus was born. God's plan for the salvation of mankind continued to move forward as His son who is to be the savior of all who believe was about to begin His...
In the Gospel according to Luke, we learn that the Angel Gabriel was sent from God to the town of Nazareth in Galilee. Gabriel went to Mary, a virgin woman who of course had never had been with a man. At this time, Mary was already promised in marriage to Joseph of the family of David. Gabriel...
The death of Moses happened somewhere around the year 1407 BC. Between that time and the birth of the Christ, the Israelites continued to be a disobedient people proving repeatedly that they could not keep the Law of God handed down to Moses for the people of the Creator. It was for this reason...
Many historical events happened between the time of Abraham and the days of Moses, far too many to mention here in this blog. However, through it all the Almighty God creator of heaven and earth was faithful to His people, the nation of Israel. It was during a time of great famine, the nation of...
As God Almighty, the Creator of heaven and earth, loving patience endured in spite of mankind's wickedness He continued to employ His plan to restore mankind from their sinful nature by offering a way for eternal life. He began by calling out a people of His own from among mankind. It was at...
As Satan continued to influence mankind to disobey and turn away from the Almighty God the world became an evil place. However, God demonstrated patience and was set on creating a plan to restore mankind back into a right relationship with Him. However, for every good thing God did for mankind...
Part 1, "In the Beginning: God's Perfect Creation," illustrated creation from the very beginning and concluded with a discussion on Satan's evil plot to destroy the Creator's perfect work. "The one who practices sin is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the very start. This is...
In one's attempt to understand God's plan for mankind's salvation it is important to start at the very beginning of time. Time is a relative term, especially when it comes to understanding the need for God, the creator of all things, to create a plan designed to rescue us from eternal damnation...
What people perceive is usually what they believe, and this is based on what they hear, see and think. However, not all of our perceptions are in fact truth. We all have blind spots where others can perceive things about us and yet we do not perceive or acknowledge these things. For example...
You have probably heard the expression that we must rightly divide the word of God, but have you ever really wondered what this means? The scriptures actually states from 2 Timothy 2:15, “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word...
Jesus gave us two commandments: that we should love the Father first, and that we should love ALL of mankind no matter who they are. Furthermore, Jesus prayed a special prayer to the Father imploring His true followers, the Church, to be united as we serve the kingdom of heaven as “one body.”...
One day while Jesus was speaking with the religious leaders He said, “You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of men, but God knows your hearts; for that which is highly esteemed among men is detestable in the sight of God” (Luke 16:15). The intent of His message was to point out that...
