Who is Jesus Christ? Why is it that after 2,000 years of history having passed, He is still the central figure of all history? Was He merely a prophet as some claim? Was He just a historical influential philosopher, one of many? Or was He one among the many religious leaders we find listed in our history books? Was He […]
THE INFALLIBLE WORD OF GOD, Part 3
In our study of the infallible Word of God, we ended part 2 with an emphasis on the divine identity of Jesus Christ. We will continue with that theme as we unfold some more unique golden nuggets that God has embedded in His Word to show us there is no other Book like the Bible. As introduction to what we […]
OUR TRIUNE GOD, Part 2 (of 2)
Continued from Part 1 Quite a number of Scriptures make a clear distinction between the three members of the Godhead. We will take a look at a few of these Scriptures. It is worth noting that in the Old Testament, LORD is distinguished from Lord. Two Scriptures that use LORD are found in Genesis 19:24 and Hosea 1:4. Then the […]
THE BLOOD OF JESUS, Part 9
As has been made clear through this series on the uniqueness of the Blood of Jesus, we, the human race, cannot EARN our salvation. We have looked at Scriptures showing the importance of allowing the Spirit of God to rule in our lives as LORD so that we can evidence the freedom bought for us at the cross of Calvary. […]
THE BLOOD OF JESUS, Part 7
Earlier in this study we read a Scripture that undoubtedly offended the people He was teaching, especially the Scribes and Pharisees, more than anything else He said. I would like to take another look at it at this time. It is found in John 6:53-59: Then Jesus said unto them: “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the […]
THE BLOOD OF JESUS, Part 6
We read in Scripture many things that man, in his limited capacity to understand, will find difficult to accept as truth. One of the most common is the birth of Messiah Jesus to a young Jewish virgin named Mary. Many see this as nothing more than a religious fantasy or fairy tale. Others throughout the centuries have said that this […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 4/4/2015
At this Passover / Easter season, it is important for us to remember what this weekend is all about. Passover and the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus has been hijacked by the ancient Babylonian religion, and continues in numerous forms. The New Age movement carries on many of the pagan beliefs and philosophies and so, for many in today’s […]
WHY JESUS? Part 3
The last verse in the gospel of John describes something in the short 3½ year timespan of Jesus’ ministry that most pass right by. John, the beloved apostle, said: And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that […]
WHY JESUS? Part 2
As discussed in part one, the fall of Adam in the Garden of Eden left his relationship with his Creator broken. Not only that, but death was brought into the picture, not just for the human race but also for creation itself. Everything that had been perfectly created and designed to continue in perfection throughout the eons of time, now […]
