Ziklag

by

Reflections Ziklag And it came to pass, when David and his men were come to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites had invaded the south, and Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag, and burned it with fire; And had taken the women captives, that were therein: they slew not any, either great or small, but carried them away, and went on their way. (I Sam. 30:1-2) David had been told he would be king, and yet he had spent years in the desert fleeing from Saul. But he had been given the city of Ziklag. Ziklag was the last refuge …

The Apostasy of the Church Part I

by

Dr Scofield in his 1909 Reference Bible categorized the letters to the seven churches of Asia in Revelation chapters two and three as a chronological developmental exposition of a broad overview of Church history. He and the men that refreshed the notes in the Scofield Reference Bible in 1967 saw the letters as an accurate chronological depiction of the problems encountered throughout church history. The last letter, Laodicea provides an accurate picture of the apostasy of the visible Christian Church. The Church of the Apostasy represents Church history from A.D. 1917-to the Rapture of the Church.. Rev 3:14-22  “To the angel …

“Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.” John 5:8

by

“Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.” John 5:8 Like many others, the impotent man had been waiting for a wonder to be wrought, and a sign to be given. Wearily did he watch the pool, but no angel came, or came not for him; yet, thinking it to be his only chance, he waited still, and knew not that there was One near him whose word could heal him in a moment. Many are in the same plight: they are waiting for some singular emotion, remarkable impression, or celestial vision; they wait in vain and …

God’s love has no limits: It reaches all people, regardless of their shortcomings or circumstances Our Reason for Hope 1 JOHN 4:7-10 7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. 8 The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love. 9 By this the love of God was manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but …

Apostasy ✡✡ by Arnold G. Fruchtenbaum…taken from The Footsteps of the Messiah

by

[In] The Church of Laodicea: The Church of Apostasy ( A.D. 1900~present day) Revelation 3:14-22 Pages 74-77 “Footsteps of The Messiah” [ ASV ] In most recent times, a whole new phrase has entered the apostasy.   The old phrase was characterised by destructive denials.   The new phrase claims to affirm the fundamentals of faith but they have made a paradigm shift in that the Bible is no longer the final authority in determining divine truth but experiences are equally valid.  In actual practice, the experience takes priority over the Scriptures.   If the Bible contradicts the practice, then …

The Tabernacle is a Model of Christ Hebrews 9:1-10

by

The Holy Spirit teaches us that the old system was unable to provide a way of access to God because the holiest of all—the Holy of Holies—was limited to the High Priest. This was true as long as the old Levitical system was in existence. There were other exclusions too. The Outer Court separated Gentiles from Jews; The Inner Court separated non-Levites from Levites; The Holy Place separated non-priest from priest; and The Holy of Holies separated the High Priest from all common priests. The old system was merely a model or type for the time present; it was simply …

IT’S TIME TO CALL OUT THE REAL “OCCUPIERS” IN THE MIDDLE EAST (And Israel Isn’t One of Them)

by

The total area of Land making up the modern-day State of Israel is just under 9,000 square miles. The size of the Country is equivalent to the size of the American State of New Jersey. Meanwhile, the Arab nations who are always shouting at Israel to give up land to the Palestinians for “peace” are MUCH larger. Saudi Arabia is nearly 1 MILLION square miles, Iran is over 600,000, Egypt is just under 400,000, Turkey is over 300,000, Iraq is nearly 200,000, Syria is just over 71,000, and Jordan is about 35,000 square miles. How come NONE of the fellow …
