In Exodus 12:38 we find Israel being brought out of Egyptian slavery by the Rock (Jesus Christ–1 Cor. 10:4). Note that they were not alone, for “a mixed multitude came out with them.” This multitude was comprised of various Gentiles whose nations had been defeated by Egypt and their people had been made slaves of […]
God’sTrue Church: The Gentile-Israel Connection (Pt. 1)
The Apostle Paul’s letter to the church at Ephesus was written to a body comprised of converted Gentiles. In the first two chapters he reminded them of how far they had come since their days of spiritual Gentilism. In 1:1 he called them saints (holy ones) who were faithful in Christ Jesus. In verses two […]
“Don’t Ask Why, Ask What”–Is This Biblical? (Pt. 2)
Don’t ask why God allows horrific things to happen to people, we are told by Satan’s false prophets. Always ask what you can do for those who have been harmed by such things as so-called “natural disasters,” pandemics, depressions, wars, etc. Why not ask why? The Holy Bible is filled with examples that highlight THE […]
“Don’t Ask Why, Ask What”–Is This Biblical? (Pt. 1)
Religious groups are hitting the airwaves en masse these days with familiar themes such as instant guaranteed salvation/ come as you are, stay as you are/ I’m o.k., you’re o.k.–its all good themes designed to lure into their respective religious webs as many Biblically ignorant followers as possible in these last days of the world […]
The Grace-Truth Connection
In John 1:14 we are told that Jesus was full of grace and truth. Let us Biblically determine the connection between these two very important characteristics which filled the heart of the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace is defined as “unearned favor.” Truth is the Word of God (Jn. 17:17). The Apostle Paul describes grace in […]
What Is Truth?: Finding It The Berean Way (Pt. 2)
Anyone who has spent much time in church “knows” that the Old Testament, commonly called “the law,” was “nailed to the cross” and thereby done away with. This in spite of the fact that Jesus specifically said that such was not the case (Mat. 5:17). In fact, it was prophesied that He would “magnify the […]
What Is Truth? Finding It The Berean Way (Pt. 1)
“What is truth?” The question was put to Jesus of Nazareth while on trial for preaching God’s Word to people who did not want to hear it (John 18:38). Instead of waiting for His answer, Pilate, His Roman inquisitor, immediately left the room and went outside where he asked the mob of Jesus haters what […]
The Church Of God: Who Abides Therein? (Pt. 2)
The Apostle Paul gets straight to the point of this series in the first three verses of Hebrews chapter one when he describes the true CHURCH OF GOD as those who are “sanctified” (set aside) for holy living and holy use who are “in Christ Jesus” whom He calls “saints” (holy ones) who call upon […]
The Church Of God: Who Abides Therein? (Pt. 1)
In the Holy Scriptures the term “The Church (or Churches) of God” is used 10 times. “The church” (singular) is used 98 times. THE (one and only) church of which God is the Founder and Christ is the Head is identified over 100 times, leading no doubt that there is only ONE CHURCH that God […]
Gleanings From The Book Of Hebrews (Ch. 5)
In the first four verses of Hebrews chapter five we find the writer referring back to the Old Testament priesthood, specifically the high priest. Being himself a sinful man, the high priest’s job was to offer sacrifices for himself as well as for the people. The high priest was no different from any other man […]
