To pruduce good fruit, one has to apply certain attributes which should produce blessings, if applied correctly.
We look at Millennium Jobs: 1)Marriage Supper: Looking at the glory of 2 coronations: a)Jesus Christ b)Queen Elizabeth II 1953 2)16 Millennium jobs--people already assigned. 3)12 apostles--will be kings over 12 tribes--where'd they go?
How well are you prepared to deal with the tests and trials that life may throw at you? We need to be prepared for the soon coming Kingdom of God. How can we do this? Is it possible? The Bible says that with the help of God we can be prepared and will make it to the end.
Will you be "counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man"? Could you answer that question for yourself, and are you sure your answer would be correct?
To escape "all these things" is an astonishing opportunity and a privileged offer from God, and to "stand before the Son of Man", means that we will have made it to eternal life! But how are we counted worthy? Is it by GRACE or by WORKS? If it is by grace, would that mean that works are not necessary? What do you think?
The scriptures show that not all our brethren will be "counted worthy." Some will be, some will not. So what is the difference between the two? If it is by GRACE, should that not include everyone?
Listen to this message to see if it includes YOU - I hope it does!
The need to continue to draw close to God using the tools of prayer, fasting, bible study and meditation to achieve that goal.
It has always been God's desire to dwell with and in His people. God the Father dwells in heaven for now, but He will dwell on earth. Christ already dwelt on earth in the flesh, and God's Spirit dwells in us today. We are Christ's house and belong to Him -- we are no longer our own. We are to show man today how it is like when God dwells in us.
We have the opportunity to be among those who prove to be the called, chosen and faithful, and to serve with Jesus Christ as rulers in the great millennial reign of God's government. In keeping the Feast of Tabernacles, we look forward to this time, and we continue to fulfill the command to "'seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.'"
Why does God command us today to stay "in booths" for the entire time of the Feast of Tabernacles? What is the symbolic significance of staying in booths? And what is the meaning of "booths" for us today?
The Day of Atonement pictures the removal of Satan and reconciliation or "at-one-ment" between God and mankind. Why and how was Satan successful in alienating man from God? What are his tactics and strategies? How can we conquer Satan already now?
The Feast offers many opportunities to practice patience, because no matter how much care we take in planning, problems will arise to test our Christian Character in the area of Patience.
This third installment discussed the 3rd chapter of Paul's letter to the Galatians. What is the law that was "added" 430 years after God's promises to Abraham? Why was it added "because of transgressions"? Why does Paul say that we are not justified by works, while James says that we are? What is Judaism or the "Jews' religion"? And what is the practical difference between our faith in Christ and the faith of Christ living in us?
The Feast of Trumpets symbolizes an alarm for the world as a whole. As the church carrying out the mission to proclaim this warning message, we must be acutely aware of what is being preached and be moved to act accordingly.
While the Word of God speaks about the future and very clearly reveals the hope we hold, how does that knowledge factor into our daily living? Is it only the ultimate future that holds promise for us, or can we legitimately plan for and have "dreams" for this present time?
The "Day of the Lord" is closely related to the Feast of Trumpets. It is our commission today to warn the world of that soon-coming time of God's Wrath. Most won't listen now--but they may remember later. God promises those who do hear and act accordingly physical protection during that terrible time. Let us examine what God says about the seven trumpets which will be blown during the Day of the Lord.
Fellowship involves the sharing of interests, ideals and experiences, and these concepts are clearly mentioned and explained in the Bible. Fellowship involves each one of us, and how we participate is important--even to the point of determining our future in God's Kingdom!
Weakness, measured by the standards of this world, makes the strength of God perfect in the life of a Christian. Brains, brawn and all kinds of strengths that we may have, are all from God. God's chosen people are described as the weak, foolish and base people of the world. Yet to God, these weaknesses are counted as strengths when one turns to Him for strength.
"You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden."
-Matthew 5:14
