Prophecy’s Relevance Today

As events in this world move along at a rapid pace, thereā€™s an ever-growing interest in prophecy. We donā€™t want to get into the position of forcing parts of prophecy to come together to fit like a puzzle, but to take what is revealed to us by God, progressively putting them together to make an image that is factual according to scripture, not an interpretation of man.  Peter is a particularly good place to start: " knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private … [Read more...] about Prophecy’s Relevance Today

The Prophetic Return of Christ

Our lives consist of and are measured by pivotal events and experiences that change our direction and our behavior. They can change our outlook on life. i Throughout history God has placed pivotal events upon humanity to shake us from the paradigms which allow us to justify our behavior, to define for ourselves what is good and evil. Some have developed a form of godliness but, whether knowingly or unknowingly, deny the power and purpose of God as their Creator and Sustainer.  The Bible … [Read more...] about The Prophetic Return of Christ

The Work of God

Jesus Christ is a great window into understanding the Being we call the Father. These two Beings form the God family and They are so identical that They are referred to as ā€œthe Lord our God, the Lord is One.ā€ In John 1 this is reinforced for us: ā€œNo one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Himā€ (John 1:18). The message revealing God the Father originated with Jesus Christ and He had authority to rehearse or unfold who the Father … [Read more...] about The Work of God

The Closeness of God

If we are honest with ourselves, we donā€™t always have the feeling that God is relevant to our everyday lives. I donā€™t mean in the overall sense of knowing Godā€™s plan and purpose. I am thinking of something more up close and personal. The longer time goes on, with the subsequent increase of corruption in our societies, the more difficult it is to feel the personal closeness of God -- that He is there for us on a real and personal basis. We may have understanding in our head, but the daily … [Read more...] about The Closeness of God

Why Does Man Exist?

In an article dated September 21, 2018, titled ā€œThe Human League: What Separates Us from Other Animals?ā€ the British Newspaper The Guardian states the following:   "What a piece of work is a man! marvels Hamlet. How noble in reason! How infinite in faculty! ā€¦ In action how like an angel!  In apprehension how like a god! ā€¦ The paragon of animals!  Hamlet then ponders the paradox at the heart of humankind: what is this quintessence of dust?  We are special, but we are … [Read more...] about Why Does Man Exist?

Leaven and Reconciliation

The original instructions given to ancient Israel regarding the first two Holy Days of the annual Holy Day cycle clearly emphasize the isolation of leaven. This applied to both the restriction of eating it and its removal from their dwellings (Exodus 12:15-20). The fact that the days of Unleavened Bread follow immediately after the Passover is important. Christā€™s sacrifice paid the penalty for our sins and opened the way for us to come into a close, reconciled relationship with Christ and the … [Read more...] about Leaven and Reconciliation

Time of Christ’s Death and Resurrection

We know that the Biblical details of Christā€™s death and resurrection are central components of the gospel message. The early New Testament Church kept the Passover as a remembrance of Christ's death. The details surrounding His death and resurrection are also an anchor of our faith. To rehearse some of the timing around the events of the week of Christ's crucifixion and resurrection, we need to begin with statements Christ gave us and the prophecies in the Old Testament that say He would be … [Read more...] about Time of Christ’s Death and Resurrection
