People in the time of Jesus Christ looked for the prophetic Elijah--the one promised in the Book of Malachi. In our time individuals still look for the end time fulfillment of an Elijah to come. The story of Elijah and of those who would continue his mission is important, and that importance has pivotal significance for events that now herald the end of this age!
The question of who and what a true Christian is has been hotly debated over the years. However, usually a false explanation has been given. It is not up to us to decide this matter but solely what the Scriptures reveal. This sermon covers many issues and also clearly shows that total commitment to God, His laws and His ways are of paramount importance.
What does it mean for a Christian to be bold in the world? From the examples of Jesus Christ and the apostle Paul we can find strength from their examples. We have our calling to uphold to the very end, and we need to do this in and through the power of the Holy Spirit. With the Help of Jesus Christ we can become bold.
A synopsis of the Feast of Tabernacles and Last Great Day in England this year with a perspective of prophecy that has been fulfilled and is to be fulfilled in Great Britain and its Commonwealth.
What were the weak and beggarly elements and the pagan practices, as mentioned in Galatians 4:9-10? In what way did false teachers try to "exclude" the Galatians (Galatians 4:16)? What were the allegorical two covenants which Paul addressed, beginning in Galatians 4:22? These and other questions are addressed in our fourth installment on Paul's letter to the Galatians.
God is fair and will give everyone an opportunity for eternal life in His Kingdom. Mainstream Christianity simply does not understand this wonderful truth. Those who, down through the ages, who have never even heard of the only Name by which we must be saved (Jesus Christ) will be resurrected during the Great White Throne Judgment to be given their opportunity. And those who are in the first resurrection will have their part to play in teaching the complete way of God to those billions who are in the second resurrection.
When we examine the life of David, we note that God worked with him in many and varied ways before he assumed the throne. He was being shaped and prepared for a position in much the same way that God is making us ready for what he has in store for you and me.
What will it be like during the Great White Throne Judgment Period? How will people come back to life? How will people live? Notice the astonishing parallels between the Millennium and the Great White Throne Judgment.
The reality of God, of coming before our Creator lies ahead--for everyone! God already reveals Himself, if we have eyes to see and ears to hear, and He does so in many ways. Foremost, He reveals Himself as the eternal God!
A look at our future home and residence, the new Jerusalem.
Do you really seek God's Kingdom and His righteousness first? Or are you more concerned with physical possessions and accomplishments? When you die, you will leave everything physical behind. God called you to build His righteous character in your life. But do you know what godly character is, and how to develop it?
The creation of man is God reproducing after His Kind--a process that has only begun in the physical realm, and one that will find fulfillment in ways that only the few have ever yet even partially understood. What we shall be regarding this glorious future is revealed in God's Word.
After the terrible times prophesied in the previous chapter, Isaiah 35 is full of millennial hope and descriptive of better times ahead for mankind alive at that time. On the one hand, these are about physical things but can also have deep spiritual significance. This sermon primarily looks at the wonderful physical blessings that are surely just ahead of us now.
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.
"You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden."
