In the 21st chapter of Luke’s Gospel we find Jesus speaking to His disciples (20:45) who were among a group of Jews who had been asking Him questions. Within the group were Jewish religious leaders who routinely followed Him, watching and listening, trying to catch Him in His Words or acts. Their goal was to […]

Jesus Christ prophesied of a time when the world would be in a state of terror, death and destruction that would be worse than all of the previous curses He had placed on mankind–COMBINED (Mat. 24:21). This 3 1/2 year period is prophesied to take place just prior to His return to earth. He called […]

The modern day translation of Christ’s life-changing statement is this: “In order to live with Me and My Father eternally in our earthly kingdom, one must live one’s earthly life as I lived My earthly life.” That statement, though stated in other words, are found throughout the Holy Scriptures. For example, “Be you holy for […]

Recently I watched several globally-known preachers call Jesus Christ (Old Testament–“the Word”) a liar while laughing at those like myself who believe what He said about the subject under discussion. The Scripture being ridiculed was what Jesus said as recorded in the Gospel of John (10:30). Here we find that He has been talking with […]

In Acts 3:19 we find a statement that, for some 1900 years, has been misunderstood by salvation seekers who, as the saying goes, have placed the cart before the horse. The mistake concerns which came first–forgiveness of sins or conversion of souls. Let us read the verse and allow the Words themselves to answer the […]

“He’ll always say, ‘I forgive.’” So goes the age-old song that could be painted on the cross that can be found on every church property throughout the world. The question is, ARE THE WORDS IN THE POPULAR SONG TRUE? Does He ALWAYS forgive the sin for which a parishioner has repented? Is forgiveness automatic upon […]

Before entering into this very important study a Biblical fact must be made clear. God’s church, comprised of those whom He calls “My people, (those) who are called by My name,” are not all His obedient disciples. The vast majority within His sheepfold are goats among His sheep, tares among His wheat, bad fish among […]

Pagan gods, precepts and customs occupy important positions in the life of the Catholic/Protestant Religious System, commonly known as “the church.” One of the most favored “truths” involves the removal from earth of members of the ___________ (fill in the blank) church in order to keep them (and only them) from harm when the end […]

THE TRINITY– An edict produced by the emperor of the Roman Empire during the Counsel of Nicea concerned the addition of two more gods to the church’s extensive list of deities, beliefs and customs that had been borrowed from various heathen religions. One, possibly more, of the nations conquered by the Romans worshiped a god […]

In this series we will examine the falling away (apostasy) of the Catholic/Protestant Church from the God Who created her on the Day of Pentecost 31 A.D. in Jerusalem. At that time the promised Holy Spirit (Acts 1:4,5) entered the lives of those disciples who had remained true to His Son. On that date the […]
