Jericho, Rahab, And The Rope Of Hope

By ONE FOR ISRAEL (Messianic Jews In Israel) We passed the sign that forbade us from entering. We were on a bus to Jericho, which, after the Oslo Accords, has been under Palestinian control. Israelis are not free to go there without special permission. But we had special permission. Situated in the lowest place on earth, next to the Dead Sea, Jericho is famous for walls that came tumbling down, and a certain prostitute called Rahab. Rahab, as you might know, ended up becoming a Very Important Person. You can still see the remains of the city walls today, and evidence of …

The Last Days According to Everyone

The Last Days According to Everyone Pete Garcia The ancient Vikings believed in ‘Ragnarok’. The Buddhist believe in the coming of the ‘Maitreya’. The Hindus believe that the ‘Kalki’ brings an end to the current Kali Yuga. Islam predicts that the end will come when the ‘Mahdi’ returns. Even atheists and skeptics posit that we are overdue for an occurrence such as a meteor, super volcano, global weather extreme, or other cataclysmic earth-ending event. It is common for cultures and societies to look toward the future with a certain level of trepidation. The future represents change. It is the big …

HOPE IN GOD ALONE June 18, 2018

Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him for the help of His countenance.” HOPE IN GOD ALONE Depression is a cruel and unfair player when it comes to human emotions. It seems to single us out at the most inconvenient time and cares not for our commitments, schedules or the important things of life. Everyone struggles from time to time with the depression that comes from our inner man. Many of God’s great warriors fought bouts of depression. The prophet Elijah became so …

By Faith Alone

By Faith Alone Romans 1:16-17 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. If you are too proud to bend your spirit before God, you’ll never get to heaven. You may be a kind, gentle person; you may even be naturally benevolent and charitable. But if your pride keeps you from …

Patiently Waiting 1 Samuel 25:29–34 29 “Even when you are chased by those who seek to kill you, your life is safe in the care of the Lord your God, secure in his treasure pouch! But the lives of your enemies will disappear like stones shot from a sling! 30 When the Lord has done all he promised and has made you leader of Israel, 31 don’t let this be a blemish on your record.

“I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse.” Song of Solomon 5:1

“I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse.” Song of Solomon 5:1 The heart of the believer is Christ’s garden. He bought it with his precious blood, and he enters it and claims it as his own. A garden implies separation. It is not the open common; it is not a wilderness; it is walled around, or hedged in. Would that we could see the wall of separation between the church and the world made broader and stronger. It makes one sad to hear Christians saying, “Well, there is no harm in this; there is no harm in …

Messianic Kingdom & Temple I

The section of Scripture we are entering is an exposition of the Temple that will exist during the future Messianic Kingdom. The coming Kingdom was known for many ages by the nation Israel and revealed extensively throughout the Old Testament prophets in all of the aspects of it that God chose to provide us. The Scriptures cannot be fully understood without a fundamental knowledge of the kingdom. It is a fact, attested by a multitude of works, and constantly presented throughout the chronological time line of the Bible.   The Jews in the New Testament times knew that a Messiah …

Why The Heavenly Tabernacle Needed to be Cleansed by Jesus

In this video Dr Woodhead describes the need for the heavenly Tabernacle to be purified by Jesus. God created the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1) sometime after the creation of the celestial beings (Job 38: 4-7). Lucifer was given authority over some aspect of the creation as the passage states: you were in Eden the garden of God. This Garden of Eden is not the same as the garden in Genesis. This is a jewel garden. The Genesis Eden is a vegetable garden. This passage describes the original creation being covered in jewels with no oceans or seas. The …

Happy Father’s Day – by Jack Kinsella 

Happy Father’s Day – by Jack Kinsella Today is the day set aside to honor fathers. Scripture says, “Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise.” (Ephesians 6:2) The ‘promise’ is that ‘thy days may be prolonged’ (Exodus 20:12, Deuteronomy 5:16).

It was the brainchild of a Mrs. John B Dodd, who wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart. Smart was a Civil War …
