“So Jesus again said to them, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief comes only to...

Summary 2 Peter 3:1-16
This is talking about the prophecies of Scripture regarding these last days before the return of Christ and of his coming again one day. One day this world as we now know it is going to be totally destroyed by fire, including the ungodly of this world (including many who...
John 8 Select Verses
12 Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
19 They said to him therefore, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me...
God has said ever since the Garden, not to put our will ahead of His. We are too selfish to control using our own will. Jesus did what was required of Him, but He also said He came to share the good news of the Kingdom (as are we commanded) and to do His part in bringing it about. That good news...
“Now this is the commandment—the statutes and the rules—that the Lord your God commanded me to teach you, that you may do them in the land to which you are going over, to possess it, that you may fear the Lord your God, you and your son and your son's son, by keeping all his statutes and his...

and a light to my path.”
“The wicked have laid a snare for me,
but I do not stray from your precepts.

“Let all the earth fear the Lord;
let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him!
For he spoke, and it came to be;
he commanded, and it stood firm.
The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing;
he frustrates the plans of the peoples.
The counsel of the Lord stands...
And the Word was God
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in...
“’Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber. But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and...
If church means a gathering or assembly, then it need not mean a government or institution which is the traditional way of man, and a form the religion has taken until today. It was meant originally to represent the Kingdom, and Jesus said it would be built only on truth from the Father, not...
Hillariah saw herself going high over the earth beyond the new settlement toward very distant hills. She came to those and went past them. She saw then that on the other side out of sight from the settlement there was a wide area of constructed shelters. A large river flowed alongside it further...
“See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule...
Receive the Brokenness of All People
I asked Jesus how to live as His companion of love. It is easy when I am in prayer, and He allows me to feel His presence and to see His gaze, but during the day, there are so many distractions. Jesus said: Be attentive to each person you encounter in your...

Eschatology Note # 5
In the writing of John's Revelation, there is a structure to the presentation of what John saw by means of "a door standing open in heaven" (Rev. 4) My mental picture of this is that he was taken up aboard an aerial craft and shown some "videos". This was a memorable...
