After faithfully serving Satan for many years by having orchestrated the martyrdoms of numerous Christians and the imprisoning many others, the Apostle Paul would be the one to consult relative to the power of Satan in the life of religious people who do not know the Biblical God. This includes those who believe they know […]

In Second Timothy 2:15 we find the Lord’s primary instruction for learning the things of the Spirit (the Holy Bible which consists of God’s Truth) and how to distinguish them from the things of the flesh (church doctrine which consists of man’s correction/improvement of God’s Word). The Apostle Paul, writing to Evangelist Timothy, instructed him […]

Jesus of Nazareth was as human as all other humans, including the apostles He had chosen to carry on with the ministry without Him in the future. However, what they did not realize was that a Christless future would soon begin. This information came as a shock to them when He told them that He […]

In Luke chapter 22 we find one of the most well-known statements about mankind’s potential savior. Here we are introduced to the terror suffered by Jesus of Nazareth as He awaited the manifestation of His fate which had been established before He came to earth as the humble carpenter Who would become the Messiah, the […]

In this series we have learned that the “IT” Jesus finished upon His death began with the removal of all of the PAST SINS of a truly repentant soul, thereby rendering him/her JUSTIFIED/RIGTHTEOUS. This singular action is offered to the seeker of righteousness as a GIFT from God. Nothing other than faith on the part […]

Everything (words, thought, acts, decisions) begins in the mind. The mind (Biblical “heart”) is like the hub of a wheel–everything emits from it and nothing happens without it. The man Jesus of Nazareth was no different in this regard, or in any other regard. He was 100% human. By “finishing it” He shows us what […]

Professing Christendom has “known” for almost 2000 years that “IT” consisted of everything that needed to be done for a believer to receive instant salvation upon believing that Jesus died for his/her sins, then completing a prescribed ritual. By studying God’s Word according to His written formula (Isa. 28:9-13), one finds that not only are […]

Spiritually, there two types of people on earth: Israelites and Gentiles. In the Hebrew language the word “Hebrew” means “power with God.” It was God Who changed the patriarch Jacob’s name to Israel before making him one of the founders of His (God’s) CHOSEN PEOPLE. He, along with his grandfather and father–Abraham and Isaac respectively–are […]

In Ephesians 2:1-4 the Apostle Paul reminds true saints of our iniquitous (Lawless–1 Jn. 3:4) past, stating that, prior to our conversion, we walked in the same path as the God-rejecting world around us who are in step with the prince of the power of the air–the spirit that continues to work in “the children […]

In James 1:14 and 15 we find the classic explanation of exactly how Satan’s “fiery darts” of temptation enter the heart (mind) of his potential victim and entices him into doing his bidding–to sin–to break God’s Law (1 Jn. 3:4). In this most informative passage the apostle writes that a person is tempted when he […]
