Back To Ephesus 3- Why The Church
God has a full purpose that is set for the church. This you will find in Ephesians 3:10: To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God. The NLT simplified this : God’s purpose in all this was to use […]
Back To Ephesus 2
The messages to the seven churches have a fourfold application: Local, to the churches actually addressed; As admonition to the church in history so they may discern their true spiritual state in the sight of God; To spur forward Christians, as in the exhortations: “he that hath an ear, let him hearken to what the […]
The Ephesian Church Age
“Unto the angel of the Church of Ephesus write; These things saith He that holdeth the seven starts in His right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou oanst not bear them which say they are apostles, and […]
Church Ages In Perspective
We start another series today that has to do with the history of the Church. I called it PERSPECTIVES deliberately because it is looking at the history from the angle of showing the strengths and failures of the Church in history so that we can see and learn from them. We will also see these […]
True Salvation 5
Do you know you can deserve heaven – you don’t have to assume, you can be sure. That’s what the Bible says in 2 Peter 1:5. “According as the divine power has given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness through knowledge of him that has called us to glory and virtue.” […]
TRUE SALVATION 4
We approach matters holistically to present views that are scriptural, for better understanding. I’ve observed many people living on assumptions, but an assumption isn’t the same as a fact. Then, they will say, “Oh, I made this mistake but no big deal, I’m just a work in progress.” I fail to comprehend. David mentioned stumbling […]
True Salvation Part 3
In 2 Corinthians 4:4, the Bible reveals that certain individuals cannot grasp the glory, understanding, and truths of God because the Devil has blinded their minds. Examining the Greek word used for “blinded their minds,” we find the term “Noema.” This word, when analyzed, is another perspective – something resembling the truth that presents Satan’s […]
True Salvation Part 2
Someone was telling me he spent seven years in Bible college getting all the diplomas and degrees available, yet, he was behaving like someone who never heard about Jesus. All I could do was shake my head in sadness because it’s a common decimal in Christendom (Tit.1:16). If we have the Holy Spirit, we’ll be […]
True Salvation Part 1
Going forward, we’ll be looking at a simple yet powerful word: salvation. You might ask, “What’s so amazing about salvation? We’re all born again, aren’t we?” That’s exactly the crux of the problem. Everyone claims to be born again, yet their actions paint a different picture. Titus 1:16 tells us that while they say they […]
The Antichrist and Rapture
The revelation of the Antichrist is the key to understanding when Rapture takes place. When I see a man that brings peace to the Middle East- Israel, and Palestine and the rest of the world, that man is the Antichrist. Dan.9:25-27. When this peace accord is signed, this world has 7 years to the end […]
