“That through death He might destroy him that had the power of death.”—Hebrews 2:14.

by

O child of God, death hath lost its sting, because the devil’s power over it is destroyed. Then cease to fear dying. Ask grace from God the Holy Ghost, that by an intimate knowledge and a firm belief of thy Redeemer’s death, thou mayst be strengthened for that dread hour. Living near the cross of Calvary thou mayst think of death with pleasure, and welcome it when it comes with intense delight. It is sweet to die in the Lord: it is a covenant-blessing to sleep in Jesus. Death is no longer banishment, it is a return from exile, a …

ETERNAL SECURITY: YOU CAN BE SURE

by

Hebrews 7:24-25 24 but Jesus, on the other hand, because He continues forever, holds His priesthood permanently. 25 Therefore He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. We spend a lot of time worrying about physical needs—such as our house, car, food, finances, and health. All these are important in our life, but one form of assurance supersedes all the others. God desires for us to be confident in Him and in His saving grace. He gives us several reasons to be sure of …

Genesis Msg 5 God Divides The Lights

by

In this video Dr Woodhead discusses one of the reasons for making the stars in the heavens was for a sign. A sign signifies or represents something. Signs therefore, are meant to lead one to something else. The sign itself is not the end destination. It is the method employed to direct our attention to something else. In the stars God is the direct object the signs point to. We should realize that His entire creation which theologians call “general revelation,” speak to Him and coming from Him. In fact God charges all mankind to know Him through the ‘signs” …

The Law of Christ Has Replaced the Law of Moses

by

DISPENSATIONALISM·WEDNESDAY, APRIL 19, 2017 Article by: Keith Sherlin, ThD; PhD; © Christicommunity Introduction Two main systems of theology exist in the Christian circles. One theological system named “Covenant theology” emphasizes the “deep sense of continuity between the OT and the NT.”[1] This system of theology differs in essence from the contrasting system of theology known as “Dispensationalism.” Dispensationalism emphasizes the “that there is much variety in the divine economy of the Bible, that God has dealt differently with men during different eras of biblical history.”[2] Sometimes the two systems have been titled “continuity” (representing the Covenant tradition) and “discontinuity” (representing …

And the Answer Is . . .

by

Exodus 4:1-10 4 Then Moses answered, “But behold, they will not believe me or listen to my voice, for they will say, ‘The Lord did not appear to you.’” 2 The Lord said to him, “What is that in your hand?” He said, “A staff.” 3 And he said, “Throw it on the ground.” So he threw it on the ground, and it became a serpent, and Moses ran from it. 4 But the Lord said to Moses, “Put out your hand and catch it by the tail”—so he put out his hand and caught it, and it became a …

“Take away the stone,” Jesus said. John 11:39

by

We find in all our Lord’s life, an economy of miracle. He never put forth supernatural power, unless it was necessary. Could not Jesus have taken away the stone himself? Certainly he could. The power that could call the dead to life, could easily have lifted back the piece of rock from the door of the tomb. But there is always something left for human hands to do. God honors us by making us co-workers with himself, both in providence and grace. He feeds us—but ordinarily we must toil to earn and gather our own food. He saves people’s souls; …

Genesis Msg 4 Dry Land, Seas, & Vegetation

by

In this video Dr Woodhead discusses how just as in day one the energizing agency was the Word of God (John 1: 3). Now the dry land was separated from the lower waters. The cataclysmic action of creation yeekavoo caused the materials to arrange themselves isostatically (gravitational equilibrium) with heaver materials sinking and lighter materials floating. Lots of matter remained suspended in the waters below as the dry earth began to clear. As the solid surface began to appear the waters simultaneously began a twisting current network of channels that descended into substrata reservoirs. The earth opened up its crust …

Question: “What did Jesus mean when He said ‘I AM’?”

by

Answer: Jesus, in response to the Pharisees’ question “Who do you think you are?” said, “‘Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad.’ ‘You are not yet fifty years old,’ the Jews said to him, ‘and you have seen Abraham!’ ‘I tell you the truth,’ Jesus answered, ‘before Abraham was born, I am!’ At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds” (John 8:56–59). The violent response of the Jews to Jesus’ “I AM” statement indicates they clearly understood what He …

How the European Union Becomes the Antichrist’s Kingdom.

by

And how Israel could quickly become a World Superpower. By Jeff Robb  (The second to last paragraph is quite fascinating and the main inspiration behind my posting this. Well, plus, I have been wanting to use this image for a while now. 🙂 ) The Bible predicts a number of confederacies in the end times. For example, the European Union is well into the process of stitching back together the former Roman Empire as Daniel prophesied would happen 2,600 years ago. The EU has grown into the largest economy in the world, even larger now than the United States. At …

Sent to Serve

by

Our daily activities should reflect our purpose on earth as Jesus’ did. JOHN 17:18 18 As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. Too often, people fall into a wrong belief that they have no real purpose in life. They get up, go to work, come home, and zone out in front of the TV. Then it’s time to go to sleep and start all over. Where in this routine are they making time to fulfill their true purpose? This isn’t the model Jesus set for us. When we look at the life …

Yours For The Asking

by

Proverbs 4:7 “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.” _____________________________________________________________ For most of us, the end of spring is filled with graduations and celebrations of achievement. The student who has given himself or herself to learning has acquired knowledge. Knowledge, however, is not enough, nor is it even the most important thing. A man can be a genius, yet be void of wisdom. Without wisdom, he will eventually fail. Here in this proverb we see the central theme of wisdom. In the original Hebrew, the word wisdom means skill of mind. Wisdom …

“Behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.” Matthew 27:51

by

No mean miracle was wrought in the rending of so strong and thick a veil; but it was not intended merely as a display of power–many lessons were herein taught us. The old law of ordinances was put away, and like a worn-out vesture, rent and laid aside. When Jesus died, the sacrifices were all finished, because all fulfilled in him, and therefore the place of their presentation was marked with an evident token of decay. That rent also revealed all the hidden things of the old dispensation: the mercy-seat could now be seen, and the glory of God gleamed …
