It has been assumed for almost 2000 years that the thief on the cross knew nothing about Jesus of Nazareth, what He taught, His works, etc., before being crucified with Him. That this is a false assumption based on wishful thinking and the teachings of Satan’s false prophets will become clear as we study this […]

There are a surprising number of Scriptural passages that Satan has edited, repackaged and sold to those within professing Christendom a “new and improved” version of “thus says the Lord.” A good example of the devil playing his “Bate and Switch” game is found in Acts 16:31. See the series by that name. In Acts […]

In the previous posting I listed a number of things the original apostles had done while being with Jesus for 3 1/2 years, living and ministering in His name (Mat. 7:22). These men, through their writings, have told future converts what they must do in order to qualify for eternal life. Yet we are not […]

Considering all that the 12 disciples had learned from Jesus and all they had done in terms of ministry, one would assume that they were one with their Maker. However, this was not the case according to Christ’s Words to the Apostle Peter during a conversation the two had concerning his and the other disciples’ […]

After serving Satan for a lifetime, a dying man asks God to forgive his sins, then passes from this world confident that he will soon be in the always-welcoming arms of the Forgiver-in-chief. Upon hearing of his “salvation experience” His church-belonging family and friends rejoice that “God’s got Him another angel” since “He’s in heaven […]

The final face of God’s love to be discussed in this series concerns His “Love Letter” to mankind–His Holy Bible. God so loved the world that He gave us His path to eternal life in written form. This Biblical “Way of the Walk” reveals to the earnest seeker the what, why, who, when and how […]

“Am I my brother’s keeper?” Cain asked God this question relative to his biological brother Abel. God’s answer was aimed not only at Cain, but at all God-professing men down through history. Contrary to Social Gospel theology and socialist society ideology, we are not responsible for our fellow man’s care and feeding. However, true saints […]

Let us not forget the word “if” relative to God’s love and promises, each of which is written about extensively in His Holy Bible. His love does indeed have many faces. Each of those faces involves one or more “ifs”–caveats. One of those faces is His love for His friends. We hear much about God’s […]

As previously stated, God’s love is available to every person who has ever been born. But as was the case with the water and horse parable, one must partake of His love in order to possess that love. Knowing about, believing in, professing, claiming, etc. His love accomplishes nothing.  So, if knowing, believing, professing, claiming […]

In John 14:15,23,24 Jesus states that His Word and His commandments are one in the same and must be obeyed. Both terms– “Word” and “commandments”–refer to the Holy Bible from Genesis to Revelation. He says that the Words He spoke were given to Him by God the Father, and that those who reject them do […]
