By His Matchless Grace are We Saved
OUR SALVATION IS STRICTLY GIVEN BY THE GRACE OF GOD Ephesians 2: 1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Unregenerate people are dead spiritually and therefore like the physically dead are unable to communicate with the living God. The spiritually living are those who have been born again and are connected to God. They have been made alive by believing the gospel and receiving the Holy Spirit. Interestingly God says, “You will seek Me and find Me when ye shall search for me with all your heart” (Deuteronomy 4:29; Jeremiah 29:13; Psalm 14:2; Isaiah …

5 minute Bible Book Overviews
Our ambition is to give people a broad overview of every New Testament book before the student gets bogged down in myopic details. Our goal in creating these video summaries was originally for children in Sunday school at our church to be given a brief overview of every book of the Bible. We have a heart for these children because, with few exceptions, they really are not learning the Word of God elsewhere. We believe that the only real hope for the future of our nation is for the next generation to understand God’s Word. In the process of creating …
A View of Life after the Rapture
by Pete Garcia If we were to look back over the past 100 years, we could certainly point out some very painful and tragic moments in our nation’s history. Hurricane Katrina, 9/11, Columbine, and Pearl Harbor all certainly had an impact on our national psyche, and we as a nation grieved with those affected. But unless you were directly impacted, you went back to work or school. You moved on because life moved on. While I can only speak to the global effects of the Rapture in general terms, I intend to put the spotlight solely on the United States …
Historical Obedience
Exodus 12:1-28 The Passover 12 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, 2 “This month shall be for you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year for you. 3 Tell all the congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month every man shall take a lamb according to their fathers’ houses, a lamb for a household. 4 And if the household is too small for a lamb, then he and his nearest neighbor shall take according to the number of persons; according to what …
The Mystery of God
Reflections The mystery which has been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints — to whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. (Col. 1:26-27) In NT times, a, “mystery,” was exactly what Paul describes here: A Truth previously hidden, but which is NOW revealed. According to Paul, the great mystery of previous ages and generations, which was THEN being revealed was, “CHRIST IN YOU, the hope of glory.” Paul directly states that …
PEACE IN TROUBLED TIMES
2 Chronicles 20:1-25 Jehoshaphat’s Prayer 20 After this the Moabites and Ammonites, and with them some of the Meunites, came against Jehoshaphat for battle. 2 Some men came and told Jehoshaphat, “A great multitude is coming against you from Edom, from beyond the sea; and, behold, they are in Hazazon-tamar” (that is, Engedi). 3 Then Jehoshaphat was afraid and set his face to seek the Lord, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah. 4 And Judah assembled to seek help from the Lord; from all the cities of Judah they came to seek the Lord. 5 And Jehoshaphat stood in …
HOW DO I ACCEPT JESUS AS MY SAVIOR?
Do you yearn to experience the Lord’s comforting presence, power, and wisdom? That’s good, because God loves you and wants to have a personal relationship with you forever. Do you want to know God? Do you yearn to experience the Lord’s comforting presence, power, and wisdom? That’s good, because God loves you and wants to have a personal relationship with you forever. The problem is . . . . . . one thing separates you from a relationship with God—sin. You and I sin whenever we fail to live by the Lord’s holy standard. In fact, Romans …

34 God's Fairness in Judgment
Ezekiel Msg 34. God has heard the Jews complaining that His ways were not equally applied to all the people of Israel. God turns it back on them and asks them to look at themselves and see that they were unequal or unfair. They were neglecting to see God’s absolute standard of justice. It is equally applied to all. Mankind cannot see into the hearts of others. Whereas God looks into the hearts and sees the actual person regardless of what sort of front they put on for display (I Samuel 16:7; Jeremiah 17:10). God will judge each person …
READY FOR GLORY
On March 1, 1981, the famous British expositor D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones lay on his deathbed. From 1939 to 1968, he had served as the pastor of London’s Westminster Chapel. Now at the end of his life, Lloyd-Jones had lost the ability to speak. Indicating that he did not want any more prayers for his recovery, he wrote on a piece of paper: “Do not hold me back from glory.” What a picture of “perfect peace!” The Bible says “The steadfast of mind Thou wilt keep in perfect peace, because he trusts in Thee. The LORD Who keeps you will …
