John 3:16-17 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. In this busy and impersonal high-tech world, it seems easier than ever to ignore Jesus Christ. We are led to believe that every challenge can be met quickly and self-sufficiently, often through some online resource. After all, if we want to keep our eyes on the future, why seek …

GOD’S FULFILLMENT OF PROPHECY TO ISRAEL SINCE THE TIME OF CHRIST By Thomas S. McCall Th.D. We often hear of Bible prophecy as it relates to the First and Second Coming of Christ, which is very important, but there is much more Bible prophecy concerning what the Lord is doing between the two Advents of Jesus during the Church Age. These prophecies specifically pertain to God’s ancient covenant people, Israel, and His new covenant people, the Church. This article explains God’s preservation of, and promises to the Jewish people throughout the Church Age, in preparation for the ultimate restoration of Israel …

Jesus refused to close His ears or His eyes to the cries of a world in pain, loneliness, despair, disease, and imminent death.So, He came to us and became pain for us on a cross. Driven by love, His outstretched arms on the cross were the universal symbol of an invitation for a loving embrace. His cross says, “I’m here.I heard your cry and I saw your pain. My love will make you complete. Believe.” His empty tomb says, “Follow Me and live beyond the grave where pain cannot travel to and death cannot exist.   Watch this video on …

God’s Presence in Suffering Job 2:11–13 Job’s Three Friends Share His Anguish 11 When three of Job’s friends heard of the tragedy he had suffered, they got together and traveled from their homes to comfort and console him. Their names were Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. 12 When they saw Job from a distance, they scarcely recognized him. Wailing loudly, they tore their robes and threw dust into the air over their heads to show their grief. 13 Then they sat on the ground with him for seven days and nights. No one said a …

But you have not so learned Christ; If so be that you have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus. (Eph. 4:20-21) Some professing Christians are like walking encyclopedias of the Bible. They practically have it memorized. Yes, it is great to know scripture. But some of those same folks are, “ever learning, but never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” (II Tim. 3:7) It is possible to learn all of the doctrines about Jesus Christ right from the Bible, but to never LEARN CHRIST. Do we realize that Satan knows …

Times of the Signs – by Hal Lindsey In Matthew 24, the Lord’s disciples asked Him for signs of the end of the age. He began His answer with these words: “‘Take heed that no one deceives you.’” (Matthew 24:3 NKJV) There is no denying that we live in an age of deception: fake news, false advertising, viral lies, clickbait, and mainstream media propaganda, to name just a few examples. And it gets worse every day. But Jesus also mentioned other “signs” of the end of the age. He included “rumors of war.” The world’s stand-off with North Korea may …

We are to put on the “Whole Armor of God”, And having done so – stand, As the forces of evil seek to destroy God’s work and perfect plan. We gird ourselves with the “Truth”- Christ Jesus – Lord of all; And as our minds are stayed on Him, We’re safe whatever befall. We put on the “Breastplate of Righteousness” As we face the daily fight, Shunning all the works of iniquity, Standing for what is right. Our feet are shod with the “Gospel of Peace” As we walk on the battle ground, Leaving footprints for others to follow, That …

Dr. Mike Murphy “My life is like everyone else I know, it is somewhere between good and evil. I know I have done more good than bad in my life, so in the end, I know that I am going to be okay.  God will see that I have lived a good life, and I know He will be proud of me for it.” As I read the words, my head fell.  The words of a woman so lost, she did not even realize that she needed to be found.  Her words came in a reply to a question that …

Job 2:11-13 11 Now when Job’s three friends heard of all this evil that was come upon him, they came every one from his own place; Eliphaz the Temanite, and Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite: for they had made an appointment together to come to mourn with him and to comfort him. 12 And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven. 13 So they sat down with him upon the ground …
