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 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

Purpose of the Law

"Where there is no vision, the people perish" (Proverbs 29:18 KJV). The word ā€œvisionā€ in this scripture is used in a prophetic sense, a revealed understanding of a future reality. It says that if we lack a purpose and a clear direction of where we are going and how to get there, we are not going to "get there". Knowing where we are going and our purpose, our intent, is extremely important. God gives humanity a purpose, a destination, and He gives us a way to get there. The Bible is a complete … [Read more...] about Purpose of the Law

The Garden of Eden Prototype

When God created mankind there was a strong bond between the Creator and the Created.  This bond extended to the rest of the earthly creation that God had made.  Man was to work with the environment to subdue it and have dominion.  In other words, he was to dress and keep it. God and man walked together, they talked together, and they worked together.  All of those things are contained in the first chapters of Genesis. The Creator, Man, and the environment all worked … [Read more...] about The Garden of Eden Prototype

Godly Justice

Administering justice is a major theme of the Bible. King David administered justice to all his people (2 Samuel 8:15).  Indeed, God expects His people to administer justice: "Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?" (1 Corinthians 6.2-3). So that is the question: Do you and I practice justice … [Read more...] about Godly Justice

Is Jesus God?

Jesus Christ came to pay the penalty for our sins in our stead. He sacrificed Himself that all humanity might be reconciled to God the Father. Reconciliation is necessary because our sins have separated us from God: ā€œBehold, the LORDā€™s hand is not shortened, That it cannot save; Nor His ear heavy, That it cannot hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; And your sins have hidden His face from you, So that He will not hearā€ (Isaiah 59:1ā€“2). However, if Jesus was only human, … [Read more...] about Is Jesus God?
