“God is love” (1 Jn. 4:16). How many times have we heard those Words? How many times have we heard someone say “God loves you?” How many sermons have been preached, Sunday School lessons taught and songs sung having God’s love as their primary theme? The most memorized and recited verse in the Bible begins […]

Humanity is sharply divided into two opposing worlds as we live out our allotted time during this era: 1)God’s world inhabited by His people and 2) Satan’s world inhabited by his people. Satan’s world consists of everything the Biblical God condemns. All of humanity lives physically in that world. But there is a tiny group […]

“Safe Space”–A geographical location where one is free from people, words, ideas, situations, etc. with which one disagrees. Over the past several years we who live in the real world where one must deal with whatever comes one’s way, have noted with amazement that many university students have reverted to child-like behavior and are demanding […]

The Scriptures speak of “wounds” suffered by certain people for certain acts. The Almighty identifies both the wounds and the causes of those wounds numerous times in His Word. As He tells us in Isaiah 10:9,10,13, we must diligently study that Word in order to understand both the wounds and their cause. God is consistent. […]

Let us summarize our findings to date: Some 200 people die daily from drug overdose. This does not include those who die from other reasons involving drugs. Most drugs are consumed for the purpose of pleasure, not for medicinal reasons. What begins as a very pleasurable experience, if not ended, eventually evolves into an addiction […]

In the Time Magazine March 8th edition referred to earlier we are told that over 200 Americans die every day from drug overdose. The vast majority of these drugs are used, not to relieve pain, but to produce euphoria–a sensual condition of other-worldly bliss. This altered state allows the addict to mentally and physically leave […]

Few people, including church people, believe in cause and effect on the spiritual level. In spite of God’s numerous teachings on the subject of sin and punishment (see Deuteronomy 26 and Leviticus 28), religious people cannot accept the fact that a loving God would punish them for sin that Adam’s fall supposedly forces them to […]

A 2013 survey found that 6.5 million Americans aged 12 or older used non-prescribed drugs the month before the survey was taken. Currently some 23.5 million Americans are addicted to drugs or alcohol. This means that one out of every ten U.S. citizens 12 or older are hooked. And these are only the ones we […]

Just as the Lord called the 12 tribes of Israel His Elect (Isa. 45:4), He calls His modern day church His Elect in that they are one in the same. However, we must remember that there is a very small group within the Elect that is identified by God as His Very Elect (Mat. 24:24)–the […]

In two instances during the earthly life of Jesus Christ we find Him stating in the simplest, most concise  terms the key to becoming one of His Very Elect. These instances involve a man at the Pool of Bethesda and a woman who has been caught in the act of adultery. In neither case did […]
