In the 22 chapter of the Book of Acts we find a man named Ananias, having found Saul (later renamed “Paul”) of Tarsus and, having declared his healing from blindness, preparing to tell the future apostle why he was where he was and what the rest of his life would be about.  A hint as […]

In the first chapter of the Apostle John’s gospel we find this written about Jesus of Nazareth: “No man has seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, Who is in the bosom of the Father, HE HAS DECLARED HIM” (vs 18).  The universally-accepted concept of declaring something is to speak or write about it.  In […]

In the previous posting I noted that there are two specific passages of Scripture that perfectly identify the will of God for every God seeker ever born.  These passages state in no uncertain terms what is required for a seeker to become one of His Very Elect, His remnant, His “little flock” of true believers.  […]

The answer to the question posed in the series title is plainly presented in two passages of Scripture: John 4:34 and 2 John 7,8.  Before we get into the focal passages, let us be reminded that “All Scripture (Old and New Testaments) is given by inspiration of God” (2 Tim. 3:14-16).  The process of God […]

Over the past several weeks my vision has been assaulted by a continuous montage of decorated stores, houses, yards, deer, sleighs, trees, nativity scenes, etc. while my ears have been attacked by an endless cacophony of meaningless songs extolling the virtues of Tammuz the heathen sun god who was born on December 25th.  In celebrating […]

COUNTERFEIT– a copy (imitation/close resemblance) made to resemble something genuine for the purpose of deception.  The closer the counterfeit (fake) is to the real determines how effective the ruse will be.  The faker’s success depends on the fakees’ knowledge of the real.  Money is a prime example.  According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), […]

In 2 Peter 3:1,2 the apostle tells salvation seekers to “stir up” their pure minds by studying what he, the other apostles and prophets wrote.  By filling our minds with God’s Word we force out all other thoughts, thereby cleansing our minds.  The Apostle Paul spoke to this Truth, telling the church that God sanctifies […]

“Ground Zero” is globally known as the epicenter for whatever the subject happens to be.  In the realm of spiritual warfare, the epicenter is the mind, Biblically known as the “heart.”  It is from the mind that all things, whether good or evil, arise.  Spiritually, whatever follows the thought is the “fruit” produced by the […]

The Scientific world tells us that the human body reproduces itself every seven years.  Every cell eventually wears out and is replaced by the same kind of cell.  Questions in the physical realm involve 1) the health of the cell that is being replaced and 2), the health of the replacement cell.  The truth relative […]

Continuing with the expose’ of Satan’s heathen doctrines by comparing them to God’s Spirit-inspired Word. SATAN: “Christ will affect a secret rapture in which He will take all Christians back to heaven with Him.”  God: Upon Christ’s Second Advent, everyone on earth will see Him appear in the clouds.  His enemies will wail as His […]
