Having reminded the early church that he was the brother of James, the half brother of Jesus and one of His apostles, Jude, who became a follower only after the Lord’s resurrection, greets his spiritual brethren then asks the Lord to multiply mercy, peace and love toward them. The apostle then goes straight to the […]

The Apostle Jude was a watchman on the wall of the church in his day. His words have taken on added importance in these last days. Jude’s epistle had then and has today a singular purpose: to expose false prophets. His job was to warn the Lord’s sanctified sons about the “angel of light’s” numerous […]

Do you know why you were born? A famous church pastor claims to know. According to him, you are “Born to be Blessed.” For millions of “sinners saved by grace,” this is music to their itching ears that are in continuous need of scratching (2 Tim. 4:3). Fortunately, help is on the way. Believers are […]

The Old Testament Prophet Isaiah saw God’s future Messiah from a unique perspective. What he saw undoubtedly shocked him as it has shocked the Lord’s faithful followers ever since. In chapter 53 the man of God pours out his heart as he describes the One the church world would come to know as Jesus of […]

In 1 Peter 2:15 we are told that it is the will of God that His people DO WELL (by His standard).  In the following verse the apostle tells us that doing well is the primary characteristic of God’s servants. Note that the emphasis is on DOING–our words, thoughts and deeds. Note that faith is […]

In the fourth chapter of John’s gospel to the church Jesus stated that His agenda, His ONLY agenda, was to do the will of the father. As a man, Jesus of Nazareth was a disciple of God the Father. A disciple is one who emulates (copies) the words, thoughts and deeds of another–his master. In […]

Relative to learning and obeying the will of God, few passages of Scripture are equal to the first 17 verses of Ephesians chapter 5. Here we find the Apostle Paul writing to God’s Church about problems that had arisen within the body. It seems that the parishioners had failed to maintain their spiritual focus on […]

In Hebrew 5:8 we learn that Jesus of Nazareth, like all other men, had to LEARN TO OBEY GOD. He did this by undergoing testing and trying so that the difference between right and wrong would become obvious, thereby giving Him the option of which one to choose. This was prophesied in Isaiah 7:14-17. Here […]

There is a common belief within professing Christendom that Jesus of Nazareth retained a portion of His deity status and powers when He came to earth in the form of a man. The series titled Jesus of Nazareth: God, Man or God-man? dispels this error using numerous Scriptural proofs. Let it be known with Biblical […]

In John 5:30 Jesus of Nazareth–the Word (Jn. 1:1-4.14) Who comprised one-half of the Godhead until He came to earth as a man, said: “I seek the will of Him Who sent Me.” If, as many within professing Christendom believe, He retained His status as a God while on earth, to know God’s Will He […]
