THE GOG & MAGOG INVASION PART III 83 The Latter Days – Times of Gentiles

May 14, 2017 Daniel E. Woodhead WHEN WILL INVASION THIS HAPPEN? THE BEGINNING OF THE LAST DAYS: Only the Biblically illiterate fail to see that we are in the “Last Days.” The Last Days began with the First World War as Christ said in the Olivet Discourse. Nation rising against Nation and Kingdom against Kingdom” is a Jewish idiomatic phrase, which means a conflict in the total region under discussion. In the Olivet Discourse He was discussing the events surrounding His Second Coming, which pertain to the entire world. Matthew records our Lord’s words with respect to the beginning of …

From “Christ in You,” by T. Austin Sparks:

Christ is not a second personality or power, to come along to reinforce US, to vivify US, to strengthen US, for us to use in life and in service, and that He should make US something. That is not the thought, and that is not the angle of Scripture at all. And yet, how almost universally, perhaps largely unconsciously, that is what is happening. Christians are wanting to be made something, even as Christians; and Christian workers and the Lord’s servants are, though perhaps unwittingly, wanting to be made something as workers; and they want Christ to reinforce THEM, come …

Jesus’ Path From Hades to Heaven

FROM HADES TO HEAVEN By Tom McCall, Th.D. What happened to the saints of the Old Testament when they died? What happened when Christ died and “descended in to Hades”? What happened between the time the risen Christ appeared to Mary Magdalene and the time He appeared to the disciples later that Sunday evening? What does the Scripture mean that Christ led “captivity captive?” Where do believers go today when they die? The purpose of this article is to find the answer to these questions in the Word of God. When Christ died, His body was in the tomb, but …

“He shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his bosom.” Isaiah 40:11

Who is he of whom such gracious words are spoken? He is the Good Shepherd. Why doth he carry the lambs in his bosom? Because He hath a tender heart, and any weakness at once melts his heart. The sighs, the ignorance, the feebleness of the little ones of his flock draw forth his compassion. It is his office, as a faithful High Priest, to consider the weak. Besides, he purchased them with blood, they are his property: he must and will care for that which cost him so dear. Then he is responsible for each lamb, bound by covenant …

Better Hands

Dr. Mike Murphy She looked intently at the hand she held.  As she stroked his hand, she let her fingers caress every wrinkle.  She knew each of those wrinkles well.  For forty-eight years she had watched as each of those wrinkles had formed.  Each line reminded her of the life they had shared together, the love they had for each other.  The family they had raised, the business they had started.  The home they had cherished for so many years. As she looked again at that hand, she realized just how good of a man that hand belonged to.  Almost …

Come To The Cross

The Bible declares, “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23 KJV). Because of sin, none of us can pay the price to enter heaven. Regardless of how many “good” works we do, we are still sinners by birth, unable to merit God’s favor. We have come short of God’s righteous standards. Thus, in order to enter heaven, we need God’s righteousness. The good news is that, through the finished crosswork of Jesus Christ on Calvary, we can be made “the righteousness of God in Christ” (2 Corinthians 5:21 KJV). We can receive God’s …

Genesis Msg 3 Creation – Dividing The Waters

In this video Dr Woodhead discusses the activity that He (God) is about to speak into existence is the expanse or as some translations say firmament. We would say the sky or atmosphere. The important concept for us to grasp in this verse is that God is “speaking” into existence the “rakeeah” or the expanse. This Hebrew word means to spread out or stretch. Some other places in Scripture where this same expression is used are: 1. Job 9:8 He alone stretches out the heavens. 2. Psalm 104:2 The heavens are stretched out like a tent curtain. 3. Isaiah 40: …

God’s Only Solution

Reflections To preach the gospel, not with words of wisdom, lest the Cross of Christ should be made of no effect. (I Cor. 1:17) There is only one way to be delivered from sin: The source of sin must die. We cannot be delivered from sin by merely being forgiven FOR sin – forgiveness removes the penalty for sin. That is wonderful and essential. But forgiveness alone does not remove the sin itself. There must come a deliverance through death from what Paul calls, “the body of sin,” and, “the old man in Adam.” This was accomplished by Christ once …
