God’s Grace –Jerusalem’s Unfaithfulness Part II The Queen Becomes a Harlot

The Queen Becomes a Harlot Circe Offering the Cup to Ulysses, By John William Waterhouse, 1891 Ezekiel 16:15 “15But thou didst trust in thy beauty, and playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy whoredoms on every one that passed by; his it was.” (ASV, 1901) This is the second part of the parable and covers verses 15- 34. It begins with the success and beauty of the “Queen”, which is a reference to the blessings the Nation Israel enjoyed under the reign of King Solomon. God says,” But thou didst trust in thy beauty.” Israel had …

YOUR CONVICTIONS ABOUT THE CRUCIFIXION OF JESUS CHRIST

As the most famous symbol of Christianity, the cross is everywhere—artwork, jewelry, logos, even advertisements. But the cross of Jesus is much more than a marketing gimmick or a symbol for a world religion; it is the clearest revelation of God’s love for the world. http://s2.content.video.llnw.net/smedia/781563d6695d48a496254cad9c2ea179/_i/LoTo5ixlPsLITAU1sDAPB1IHd4PfJV8jjxPbyXhok/15y17_web.mp4

Today is Palm Sunday

. This is the day we traditionally honor as the day when Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey. The people had laid palm branches in to road as He rode by and were welcoming Him. One week later, they were crying out “crucify Him”. What is so interesting about this event, is to consider a very important Bible prophecy. The prophecy is in Daniel and is tradtionally known as “Daniel’s 70 weeks”. This prophecy was given to survey the entire panorama of Jewish future (Daniel 9:24-27). From the going forth of the decree to rebuild Jerusalem and its walls …

79 Valley of Dry Bones Prophecy

Ezekiel is about to enter a new state of awareness. God is taking him to a state we may call spiritization. God lives in a state of existence which is outside of time and space. Our existence is the physical creation. The physical universe, and space all emerged in one single event of creation inside the word “beginning” (Hebrew Rasheet) as Genesis 1:1 cites. In other words God created the earth, heavens and all that is in them out of one single creative event within the onset of the domain of time. The Hebrew text of Genesis 1:1 reads “In …

Jesus and The Passover

This Palm Sunday, watch Amir’s inspiring teaching on Jesus through Jewish eyes, revealing the true meaning of the Old Testament Passover Seder in light of New Testament events. Watch this video on YouTube

And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.” Luke 23:27

Amid the rabble rout which hounded the Redeemer to his doom, there were some gracious souls whose bitter anguish sought vent in wailing and lamentations–fit music to accompany that march of woe. When my soul can, in imagination, see the Saviour bearing his cross to Calvary, she joins the godly women and weeps with them; for, indeed, there is true cause for grief–cause lying deeper than those mourning women thought. They bewailed innocence maltreated, goodness persecuted, love bleeding, meekness about to die; but my heart has a deeper and more bitter cause to mourn. My sins were the scourges which …

THE GOD WHO SAVES

Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV) 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Recently I was talking with a man about his spiritual life. When I asked, “Are you saved?” he answered, “No, but I’m working at it.” When I pressed him, he explained that he was making some changes in his life. He had given up smoking and drinking, among other things. I knew I should help him understand a few important principles, as he was making some incorrect assumptions. …

No Condemnation

Reflections There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus. (Rom. 8:1) Either this verse is the Truth or it is a lie. And if it is the Truth, then it is entirely the Truth: There is never any condemnation – never any judgment of God against – those who are in Christ Jesus. Here are the only two options: There is no condemnation EVEN when we sin. Or: There is no condemnation EXCEPT when we sin. If it is the latter – if we are never condemned EXCEPT when we sin – then when we …

Without Fear of Man

“And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the Name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee” (Deuteronomy 28:10) Then we can have no reason to be afraid of them. This would show a mean spirit and be a token of unbelief rather than of faith. God can make us so like Himself that men shall be forced to see that we rightly bear His name and truly belong to the holy Jehovah. Oh, that we may obtain this grace which the LORD waits to bestow! Be assured that ungodly men have …
