I can identify with Jesus at the point when the rich man walked away from Him. I have dealt with religious “giants” who, having professed that the Bible is God’s unalterable Truth, then utterly refuse to believe and obey it. In an earlier posting I related how a local pastor openly admitted that everything I […]

To “prioritize” means to place things in the order of their importance to the individual. The Holy Bible offers to its readers two general, all-encompassing priorities, tells them how to follow through on their chosen priority, then reveals the end result of having done so. Within the Bible the student is introduced to two men […]

As I watch the well-earned tributes to those who gave their all for my beloved country, and especially to those who paid the ultimate price to defend her, tears are flowing because I know what is coming upon her, and why. The “what” saddens me beyond words; the “why” angers me to the point of […]

If you had given your only son to suffer incredibly at the hands of evil people, then watch them nail him to a cross to die a horrible death, would you not require the maximum of them to be able to join him in a future life? Would you not require that they love and […]

The two kingdoms of God involve two distinct yet eternally connected ruling governments that at present have different names and are located in different places. They will become one kingdom (government) following the return of Jesus Christ to earth. As was noted in the first two postings, the Kingdom of Heaven is God’s earthly church […]

In order to enter the Kingdom of God upon Christ’s return we must live in the Kingdom of Heaven until that time. The Kingdom of Heaven consists of those who are called by the Lord’s name during this era of man’s tenure on earth. The Kingdom of Heaven is the true Church of God–those who […]

Why did the Great Writer of Truth create two kingdoms in which His people would reside? Unless the seeker of Truth understands the difference between the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven, he might believe that they are one in the same. They are,  but actually are not. One kingdom IS, but IS […]

Satan is adept at repeating God’s Words while affecting a seemingly insignificant change. In Eden he inserted the word “not” into God’s threat of death for disobeying His Words. In his Sabbath declaration he changed the day. Just as in Eden, that one seemingly insignificant change was deadly–a fact that neither Adam and Eve nor […]

For almost 300 years the church that Jesus Christ founded on the Day of Pentecost 31 A.D. observed the seventh day (Saturday) Sabbath without question because that was the day their Lord had created in the Garden of Eden for all mankind for all time. On that day He had placed His name in it, […]

A sign is designed to make a statement. A flag identifies a nation. A title defines the status of a leader. A sign on a storefront identifies what one will find inside. A label reveals what is inside a package. These are all well-known facts that everyone understands. The same rule applies to those within […]
