Victory Over Death Victory Over Death, or Victory Over the Fear of Death The Apostle Paul expressed well both the life of the believer, and the physical death of the believer in Philippians 1:21: “For me, to live is Christ and to die (physically) is gain.” Paul’s life, after he was converted by Christ Himself on the road to Damascus,…
The Fall of Lucifer Introduction to the Prehistoric Past and the Fall of Lucifer (Satan) Most of the world lives unaware of the very real and very intense angelic warfare happening all around them, yet suffering, aggression, corruption, and evil explode throughout the earth, as a result of this invisible warfare. There is a very real spiritual battle in the…
Apostasy in the Last Days Apostasy is defined as “One who has fallen away from the consistent, daily intake of God’s Word.” In times of apostasy, society turns its back on God and in so doing, depends more and more on government. As a result, the government becomes too big and too powerful. The more society depends on the government,…
The Mysteries of Omnipotence The LORD demonstrates His power in the winds, the whirlwinds and the storms. At the LORD’S command the rivers rise and the rivers dry up. The lush green forests wilt, and the pastures wither. The mountains tremble, and the hills melt. The earth quakes, nations rise and fall. The earth turns, life endures. Thank you LORD…
Yahweh/Yeshua Yahweh: The proper name for Israel’s God in the Old Testament. Yeshua: THE name for Messiah, Jesus Christ, in the Old and New Testament.
Truth MUST Be a Generational Thing The basis for our study begins in these two short paragraphs: Life and death are generational. Truth and untruth are generational. Sin is generational. Faith and forgiveness are generational. Mercy is generational (Luke 1:50). Justice and injustice are generational. Righteousness and lawlessness are generational. With these things in mind, parent(s) have the responsibility to…
Thy Word Is Truth “Everyone that is of the truth, heareth my voice” (John 18:37). “But the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them because they are spiritually ‘dormant’” (1 Corinthians 2:14). The Bible is “the mind of Christ“ (1 Corinthians 2:16). HIS mind is…
Auditions for Heaven There are no auditions for heaven. The exception was Jesus Christ. Reason: No one else qualified as a perfect unfallen human being, one without the Adamic Nature. Since Adam chose to disobey God by the temptation handed to him from the woman (‘woman’ was her actual name at the time), every human being since Adam has the…
The Pride of Disbelief Pride goeth forth to conquer the world But returns to the door and asks for more He who serves others well and says little, merits more Than he who boasts, and clamors at the door Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall—things destined to be Life goes on as time marches on—to eternity But as Christ reigns…
Divine Energy – Omnipotence and Immutability To begin our short study, we’ll cover a few basic points. There are two Laws of Thermodynamics: The First Law of Thermodynamics is that of energy conservation. This law states that although energy can change forms, it cannot be created nor destroyed and therefore the sum total remains constant. Thus no energy is now…
Naturalism Naturalism is the philosophy that there is no supreme power, no supernatural agency in creation, no spiritual influence, and that all life is pure chance without a God. (Reference Atheism/Skepticism for additional understanding.) What does God’s Word say in Acts 17:28? “For in Him we live, and move, and have our being.”
THE DOCTRINE OF THE TRINITY is unique to Christianity. No other faith, no religion, no sect or philosophy advocating one God also proclaims that there are three who are God. This apparent paradox does not mean that there are “three gods in one,” but that one God exists as three distinct persons who are coequal, co-infinite, and co-eternal, all three…
Foreknowledge God is omniscient. God has always known everything there is to know—there isn’t anything He has not always known. God gave life (reality-creation) to time (history). He always knew. God ordained history which He always knew. God’s foreknowledge became, by His decree, reality. God is! We are. Time became “to be.” God is the “I Am—to be!” Therefore, by…
Lifestyle-Faith In the corridors of darkness, we wrestle with our own inner sin-weaknesses, which attempt to control the mind by controlling the flesh. As we struggle with our fleshly appetites, we can only be victorious by confession, repentance, and forgiveness from God, who will forgive every time because Christ paid for every sin (past, present, and future sin). Every believer…
Divine Life-Assets DIVINE LIFE-ASSETS Okay, what does that mean? Divine life-assets can be viewed as a God-given toolbox, one full of tools for use in specific situations while you’re operating within the realms of your daily life. The right tool for the right job. A dark house on a dark street may not be visible. But if the nightlights are…
God’s Love Okay, let’s begin another journey toward God, together: A CLOSER LOOK AT GOD’S LOVE The Bible tells us that God is Love, but that does not imply that He is sentimental. God does not bless or reward our human-good works or our sincerity in wanting to please Him (Isaiah 53:6; 64:6). As fallen humanity we do not and…
Humility: Orientation to Reality, Authority, and Truth The Cross of Jesus Christ, Yeshua, the Messiah, is the starting place for genuine humility. Genuine humility is oriented to reality, which is God. It is also oriented to proper authority—God’s Words of Truth. Humility may be defined as “freedom from subjectivity by proper orientation to God.” Humility is the virtue of teachability…
The Subjection of Truth THINGS TO THINK ABOUT… MORALITY IS TRUE Americans, in general, have lost their sense of objective moral truth. Frankly, so has most of the rest of the world Sentiment is not an excuse for compatibility with truth. Truth is not a relative thing. The compromise of truth negates objectivity. Without absolute truth there can be no…
Please… Wake Up, America (The seriousness of this study cannot be overstated.) Originally written November 2017 “This timely message is of supreme importance. The preservation of our freedom as individuals and our Republic as a whole are at stake—the American way of life.” — C. S. Craig What is really going on behind the scenes as portrayed by the biased…
Divine Establishment Divine Institutions There are four major baseline principles for mankind, clearly defined and explained and consistently verified in Scripture. God ordained four Divine Institutions through which the Laws of Divine Establishment function: Individual Marriage Family The National Entity God delegated a primary authority within each institution under each institution: volition for the individual, the husband for marriage, parents…
