Purim and the Passover Deliverance – Part 1 & Part 2
By Jane Diffenderfer The Book of Esther is not just the story of “once upon a time in a kingdom far way”, it is a living lesson for the saints of the Most High. According to Revelation 14:12, these saints are defined as those, “…that keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus [Yeshua].” Question, are the saints of the Book of Revelation two people groups, those that keep the commandments (Jews), and another who hold on to the faith of Yeshua (Christians)? Or, are they, one group of people, with one faith, who hold on to both …

The Reign of the Lord’s Anointed.
The Reign of the Lord’s Anointed. Psalm 2 (KJV) Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? 2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, 3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. 4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. 5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. 6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy …
Be Holy
Be Holy 1 Peter 1:15-16 “But as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, ‘Be holy, for I am holy.’” _____________________________________________________________ Because of the degradation of our society and the loss of values, the word “holiness” sounds to us to be almost archaic or even Elizabethan, but make no mistake about it; all those who will live in heaven forever will be perfectly holy and sinless.

Now we know that what things that the law says, it says to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. (Rom. 3:19-20) The purpose of the law was never to give man a standard he must keep. The purpose was to reveal the righteousness of God in written form, and to prove to man that he could never be righteous enough for …
