INTRODUCTION Most believe that the Old Testament speaks of Jehovah, whereas, because Jesus Christ was not born until the opening of the New Testament, He is not spoken until the New Testament. However, as this paper will show, Jesus Christ IS Jehovah. In short, this paper will offer the Scriptural evidence which proves that Jesus Christ […]
A LESSON IN THE STUDY OF THE PERSIAN KINGS OF GOD’S WISDOM AND LOVE FOR HIS OWN “Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto Messiah the Prince…..” (Dan. 9:25). I believe there will be a beautiful lesson in how God takes care of Israel, even when […]
We read in Matthew 24:34, “Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled”. To what does the phrase “these things” refer? It refers to such things as the signs of Christ’s coming, i.e. “the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the […]
INTRODUCTION We read in Rom. 8:28, “ And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose”. The questions I would like to address in this study are: 1) To what does the term “all things” refer? And the related […]
I believe that the rapture will take place after the great tribulation. Let us look at the question of when the rapture will take place. We read in Rev. 3:10, “Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world […]
“Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto Messiah the Prince…..” (Dan. 9:25). How shall we determine when and by whom this command was issued? Many search the historic records of man for those answers. In my opinion however, we should determine it from the Word of […]
Does Col. 2:16 tell us that with the beginning of the dispensation of the mystery Israel was no longer under the Law of Moses? Certainly that is what most believe it to say, but is that the correct understanding? I think it is not the correct understanding and this paper will consider this passage as […]
I have read in the writings of both mid-Acts and Acts 28 believers that before the dispensation of the mystery began salvation had never been sent to the Gentiles “apart from Israel”. I believe that the Gentiles have always had the opportunity to partake in God’s gift of salvation, i.e. that they were never dependent on Israel […]
There are some prophesies that are said to be conditional. For example, we read in Lev. 26 that if Israel will obey the law (a stated condition) they will be blessed, and if they do not obey (a stated condition) they will be punished. There are also some prophesies that are not said to be conditional but are not fulfilled because God […]
2) The Bible teaches that the body goes back to dust and the spirit goes back to God who gave it (Ecc. 12:7), There is nothing in that scenario that even hints of “Abraham’s bosom”, it is inconsistent with the teaching of God’s Word in connection with death. (Please see the paper on this web-site What […]
We read in Judges nine of the olive tree, the fig tree, the vine and the bramble. Some believe that these trees represent Israel. Furthermore, in a discussion of Romans 11, Judges nine is often suggested as the Scriptural evidence that the olive tree of Romans 11 represents Israel. In a discussion of Matt. 24 […]
There are three prophetic passages that are widely interpreted as having been completed in 70 AD. Those three are Matt. 24:1-2, Matt. 22:1-13 and Luke 21:20-24. We are told by historians that the temple and the city of Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 AD by the Romans. But these events are not mentioned in the Word […]
I. EACH OCCURS AT A DIFFERENT TIME II. THE REASON FOR EACH III. THE LENGTH OF EACH IV. SATAN DRIVEN AND GOD DRIVEN I. EACH OCCURS AT A DIFFERENT TIME In order to understand the differences between the tribulation and the day of God’s wrath we must understand that the day of His wrath is […]
Most agree that Israel is lo-ammi today. I believe that Israel was put aside at Acts 28, but some believe that She was never taken back as God’s people after Her captivity. If that is true that would mean that Israel was lo-ammi during the entire New Testament period, including, of course, the Gospel and […]
