Paying It Forward

by

By Grant Phillips One of nicest things we can do as a Christian is to “pay it forward” when led to do so. Some call this “passing it on.” I was asked to address this issue by Matt, a brother in Christ. He asked if I might say a few words on this subject. There are many ways we can show this type of kindness and appreciation to others. Following are some ideas. Pay for someone’s meal without their knowledge. Give your seat to someone else on a crowded bus. Offer an honest compliment on a job well done. Don’t …

Nimrod the Founder of the Occult and Babylon

by

NIMROD The Bible develops a very prominent and notorious character named Nimrod. He was the sixth son born of Cush. His name in Hebrew means to rebel. He was the founder of Babylon and Assyria. He is mentioned in I Chronicles 1: 10, Micah 5: 6 and in Genesis 10: 8b-9. The Hebrew text states that he was a mighty hunter before the Lord. This is indicative of his antagonism and opposition to God. He was wicked and made the whole world rebel through the building of the Tower of Babel. He was the first to establish kingdoms. This happened …

God’s Purpose For The Tribulation By Thomas Ice

by

While many people think the tribulation will involve the church, the Bible does not provide support for such a notion. Instead, Scripture informs us of at least a three-fold purpose for the coming tribulation, none of which involves the church. The New Testament teaches that the church will be taken at the rapture to be with the Lord before the tribulation begins. God has not destined His bride for His wrath (Romans 5:9; 1 Thessalonians 1:10; 5:9; Revelation 3:10). The tribulation in Bible prophecy is the period of time that begins with the signing of a covenant between Israel and …

Genesis Message 49 The Akedah, Abraham’s Test of Faith

by

In this video Dr Woodhead discusses the test given by God to Abraham which was a test of his faith. God knew what he would do and what the outcome would be. It is Abraham that had to realize the outworking of his own faith and trust in God. God wanted him to see this in himself. God called him and he responded. God said to take his only son whom he loved and go to Moriah. This location is in Jerusalem and is the site now known as the Temple Mount. This is the first time the word love is …

SIGNS 

by

Prophecy – Signs Monday, September 25, 2017 Pete Garcia As we draw closer to the end of the age, there will inevitably be more and more signs and wonders becoming increasingly evident to those who are paying attention. After all, isn’t the convergence all about the coalescing of signs and wonders all heralding the end of our age? But what are signs? Are signs the event themselves, or are they markers which point to some prescribed event forthcoming? Revelation vs. Illumination These days, there is an almost instinctive knee-jerk dismissal of anything outside the eschatological norm (i.e., within our community’s …

What Is the Christian Life?

by

When a person accepts the saving grace of Jesus, he or she receives a new life—not a new formula. What Is the Christian Life? Titus 3:4-7 (KJV) 4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, 5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; 7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of …

“Just, and the justifier of him which believeth.” Romans 3:26

by

Being justified by faith, we have peace with God. Conscience accuses no longer. Judgment now decides for the sinner instead of against him. Memory looks back upon past sins, with deep sorrow for the sin, but yet with no dread of any penalty to come; for Christ has paid the debt of his people to the last jot and tittle, and received the divine receipt; and unless God can be so unjust as to demand double payment for one debt, no soul for whom Jesus died as a substitute can ever be cast into hell. It seems to be one of …

Your Grace Finds Me

by

2 Corinthians 12:9 – And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Your Grace Finds Me It’s there in the newborn cry It’s there in the light of every sunrise It’s there in the shadows of this light Your great grace It’s there on the mountaintop It’s there in the everyday and the mundane There in the sorrow and the dancing Your great grace Oh, such grace From the creation …

102-1st Division of the Holy Mountain

by

This section of Scripture begins to describe in great detail the holy mountain of Jehovah’s House. Referred to here as the Holy Oblation unto Jehovah. As we have noted earlier the Mountain will be where the Holy Temple, Holy rituals, and the city of Jerusalem will be located. It will be the highest mountain in the world. The first verse here describes how the land will be divided to the priests and the people. It will be done by lot or a drawing to see who gets what. This is not a game of chance since it was also done …

THE REWARD OF LETTING GO

by

Genesis 22:1-3 (KJV) 22 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am. 2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of. 3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the …

Revelation Msg 24 The Day of Jehovah in the OT and NT

by

In this video Dr Woodhead discusses the Day of Jehovah in the Old Testament which is a description of the Tribulation coming on the nation Israel. The terminology appears only once in the New Testament. The apostle Peter uses it to describe the coming Tribulation. The Rapture of the Church is discussed here as well. It seems to be not too far off given the extreme level of unrest on this earth and the advanced stage of world anti-semitism. Watch for the Gog and Magog invasion of Israel as Russia fights nearby in Syria.   Watch this video on YouTube

The Burden Against Damascus

by

Current events never matched Bible prophecy in a clearer way than today’s situation- amazing days with tensions rising as the Syrian civil war is shaking the whole world. Isaiah 17:1 clearly indicates the complete destruction of Damascus, an event that has never happened before. God promised that He is declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done. Will that be the catalyst for the war of Gog and Magog? How close are we to that event? Tune in! Amir delivered this teaching at the First International Church of the Living Waters in …
