As I was watching the news a couple days ago, reports came in about three large earthquakes; one in Japan, another in Costa Rica, and a third located on the Iraq / Iran border. This last quake was the largest of the three and registered approximately 7.3 on the richter scale. Due to the quake being relatively shallow in depth, […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 11/2/2017
As I was sitting reading my Bible early this morning, I found myself very thankful that I even have a Bible to read. I look at the shelves of books I have in my study, and it is almost embarrassing when I see how many Bibles I own. But, more than anything, I am thankful. I can’t answer why I […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 10/19/2017…The Amazing Grace of GOD!
One of the benefits true believers in Jesus Christ have that no one else in the world has is a knowing that God has all things under His control. There is, of course, no lack of those who in their ignorance make accusations against God to the contrary, but in the end, every knee will bow, willingly or unwillingly, before […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 10/10/2017
As I write this update, I am told that many thousands are gathering all across the Middle East for the sole purpose of studying the Word of God and to ask the Holy Spirit to make it especially real for this time and hour. There are many Scriptures that are applicable to what they are doing and one of these […]
HOLD FAST! A Study of Hebrews 10: 19-39 Part 4
Continued from Part Three THE SPIRIT OF GRACE In that 29th verse there is one more thing mentioned that we must see. We dare not insult the Spirit of Grace! There is a distinction made in Scripture between insulting the Father God, the Son of God, and the Spirit of God. Insulting the Spirit of God can be considered blasphemy […]
HOLD FAST! A Study of Hebrews 10:19-39 Part 3
Continued from Part Two RESULT OF REJECTION What is being described is the end result of a human rejecting the Final Sacrifice that has been provided by God—a sacrifice of great cost, but more than sufficient to pay the penalty of sin…all sin. But, man must recognize what God has provided and then accept this free gift. A choice is […]
HOLD FAST! A Study in Hebrews 10: 19-39 Part 2 of 4
Continued from Part One HOLDING FAST As we continue now, going on to Hebrews 10:23, the next three verses read: Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 10/2/2017
As I write today’s update, I am once again reminded of the sovereignty of God. We as humans struggle, stress, and agonize, often about things over which we have no control, yet as true followers of Yeshua / Jesus we have direct access to the One who does. It is our sovereign Lord we must trust in all things and […]
HOLD FAST! A Study of Hebrews 10:19-39 Part 1 of 4
We live in a time when, in many places on this earth, the true Church of Jesus Christ is being tested and tried just as it had been during the times of the early church. The Scriptures promise that we, as faithful followers of the Messiah, would never be left alone and we would never be without the power […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 9/22/2017
As I sit here at my laptop and begin this update, I think about today’s date and all that is happening in the world and I am astounded that I am witnessing all that I am seeing coming to pass. A couple days ago while my wife, Anne, was spending time alone with the Lord, she wrote down some of […]
