37 Israel's Rebellion Part II
God is now speaking to the second generation of wilderness wanderers. The first generation has died out and the Lord now speaks to their sons and daughters. God is commanding them to not do what their parents did to defile themselves with the idols their fathers worshipped. He urged them to follow the Law He provided to them at Sinai. He wanted them to sanctify (make holy) the sabbaths as signs of the covenant relationship between the Lord and themselves. By following these instructions the second generation would come to know by personal experience that Jehovah was their God. As …
The Inward Kingdom
Reflections And when he was demanded of the Pharisees when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God does not come in a way that you can see. Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. (Luke 17:20-21) The Jewish concept of the kingdom of God of that day was a physical kingdom headquartered in the Jerusalem temple, ruled over by the Messiah. This was also the concept of the disciples – and because of that — every time Jesus spoke …
THE HOLY SPIRIT: GOD’S PRESENCE
Acts 2:1-4 2 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. The Holy Spirit did not make His first appearance at …

The Last Few Coats of Paint . . .
Jack Kinsella ”But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” (Daniel 12:4) The vision and prophecy given to Daniel is to be fulfilled at the ‘time of the end’. The angel says at that time that people will be traveling back and forth on the earth (‘to and fro’) at a time of exponentially increasing knowledge. We live in a time when information is coming at us so fast that we even have a phrase to …

Being Joined to the Lord by T. Austin-Sparks
“He that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit” (1 Corinthians 6:17). “For in one Spirit were we all baptized into one body” (1 Corinthians 12:13). Now, dear friends, as we come to partake at the Lord’s Table, it is well that we are reminded of its wonderful meaning. When the Lord appointed that His people should so gather at His Table, He knew all the fullness of meaning that is gathered into His Table. This is the one divinely-appointed way in which all the great values of Christianity are gathered together, and there is no other way in …
THE AFFLICTION OF PAUL
Like Paul, we discover that God’s strength is available to us when we confess our inadequacy to Him. 2 Corinthians 1:8-11(ESV) 8 For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers,[a] of the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself. 9 Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead. 10 He delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we …
The Unveiled Face By David A. DePra
And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses’ hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him. And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come nigh him. And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him: and Moses talked with them. And afterward all the children of Israel …

1 Samuel 13:1-14 (ASV) 13 Saul was [[a]forty] years old when he began to reign; and when he had reigned two years over Israel, 2 Saul chose him three thousand men of Israel, whereof two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in the mount of Beth-el, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent every man to his tent. 3 And Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba; and the Philistines heard of it. And Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Let …
Israelology
AUDIOS One’s view of Israel is key in determining one’s theology. This groundbreaking study investigates four approaches to the theology of Israel Past, Present and Future, and scrutinizes beliefs that tend to confuse the identities of both Israel and the Church. The Biblical Evangelist called Israelology a “tremendous, masterful book… Millennialism, postmillennialism and other forms of Covenant Theology go up in smoke under the withering blaze of biblical light Fruchtenbaum places on them. It is the first to create an entire systematic theology of all that the Scriptures say in regard to the people of Israel. As such, Israelology fills …
