In the Book of Revelation we find Jesus Christ dictating specialized messages to seven churches located along a Roman mail route some time between 90 and 100 A.D. Those churches represented the seven church eras that would come on the world scene, remain for a while, then fade away and be replaced by the next […]

In Romans 12:1,2 we find the apostle telling the church what some within her were failing to do. With the possible exception of a few small churches, this condition is found in every church body on the planet. Read “My People Who Are Called by My Name” and Who are God’s People? (key words Called […]

This series is important to the salvation seeker for it provides God’s “fine print” which at times presents the necessary context or perhaps a more exact meaning relative to a particular statement or word. With that in mind, let us delve into the subject of CONVERSION which is what the true saint has embraced rather […]

In the previous postings of this series we looked into the Lord’s original plan for mankind. Our “fine print” study revealed that it was His intention for man (Heb.–adam/mankind) to control all of His creation (Gen. 1:26,28). But as we often do, we ran into the Bible’s most powerful and most rejected word–IF which determines […]

In verse six of Hebrews chapter two we find King David asking His Lord why He has been so attentive toward man. Note that in the Hebrew language the word “man” is “adam”–meaning mankind. I will capitalize the word henceforth because the Scripture writers used it to refer to a singular individual. In verses seven […]

In the first three verses of the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Hebrew (Israelite) converts he emphasizes the importance of the Words of Jesus Christ in the life of the true believer. This includes the Words (writings) of the Old Testament prophets. He says that God spoke to both the prophets and the New Testament […]

God has always had a “REMNANT.” Websters’ Dictionary defines a remnant as the small remains of what was once a much larger entity. The Old Testament reveals that throughout the early history of God’s people the Law-keeping minority were vastly outnumbered by the Law-breaking majority within His “church in the wilderness” of Sinai (Acts 7:38).

The famous philosopher Aristotle once wrote: “Tolerance and apathy are the last virtues of a dying society.” Those two characteristics are also the final manifestations of a dying church. And since the church sets the moral tone for the nation, both statements are true. During the first two hundred or so years America was the […]

The Apostle Jude wrote his letter to his “beloved” fellow saints just before the Roman destruction of Jerusalem which brought death and destruction to the Judahites (Jews–tribes of Judah and Benjamin). Following a national split within the Israelite tribes approximately 150 years earlier, the Jews, known as the Southern Kingdom called Judahites–” (Jews) had continued […]

Before allowing His people to enter the Holy Land, also known as the Promised Land, He spoke to them through the Prophet Moses as recorded in Deuteronomy 12:29-31 where He instructed Israel on how to deal with the heathen people who would be living near them: “Take heed to yourself that you are not snared […]
