The God Who Is – Jeremy Lallier sabbaththoughts.com
Is there a god and if so, who is God? A question for the ages of which few find the answer. The Bible writes of one man that struggled with this question but had the unique opportunity to ask God in person. Moses, being raised in Egypt, grew up well aware of “gods”, so when he asked God directly “who do I say, to the…
Has God’s Law Been Done Away? – Ken Murray ucg.org
A fundamental question looms over much of Christianity today: Has the law been done away? What does Christ have to say about this – as He should be the foremost authority on the matter. There is a scripture in Luke that is often cited to say the law is no longer needed to be kept. The Bible explains itself, never contradicts, and states with full…
The Purpose of the Church thefatherscall.org
Like the buildup in a great movie this article lays out the course of human existence. Man was created not just for a great purpose but to be an integral part of the process. That great and simple purpose, as typified by the nuclear family, was the creation of an eternal spiritual family. However Satan, the influential force within this world, has positioned himself as…
Why is the Gospel ‘Good News’? truegospel.org
People like the gospel “about” Christ, which is principally concerned with the forgiveness available through Christ’s sacrifice. While true, this version is incomplete and impotent. The gospel Christ preached was about God’s Kingdom – including obedience to His standard of conduct. This is disturbing to many because it contradicts their traditions and ideas, and requires not just belief but also change. Christ announced that He…
THIS Happens After Death? tomorrowsworld.org
What really happens after death? When a person dies, they are no longer alive – in any sense. The dead know nothing. The Bible does not say that we have an immortal soul that goes to heaven or hell at death. Indeed, Christ Himself said that no one has ascended to heaven. So how do we have hope? Because the Bible promises that everyone who…
Source of Morality vision.org
Morality seems to be as unattainable as truth these days. This article sets out to explain why that is and the ultimate reason for it. The example set forth in this article was specific to the time in which it was written but the conclusions are the same for whatever time you find yourself. I think the author stated it best when he concluded: “Until…
What is the "rapture"? thebiblesaysthat.com
Many Christian sects promote the idea of a “secret rapture.” However, the idea that Christ will quietly snatch away believers before He returns cannot be found in the scriptures. The Bible says that Jesus Christ’s return will be announced with shouts, trumpet blasts and flashes of light. The whole world will know of His arrival. Only after this unmistakable event will Christians be taken up….
Is the Holy Spirit a Person? ucg.org
The teaching of the Trinity (i.e. that the Holy Spirit is a divine person) is not in the Bible. That idea arrived after the Bible was complete and stems from pagan origins. Rather than describing the Holy Spirit as a distinct person or entity, the Bible refers to it as God’s divine power. Jewish and Catholic scholars agree that the Bible speaks of the Holy…
Whiter Than Snow – Jeremy Lallier sabbaththoughts.com
King David’s story is a case study in the peaks and valleys of dedicated obedience to God and the brutal realities of sin. Being willing to face his sins was one of his strengths. He acknowledged his disobedience and repented, but he also understood grace, the path to complete forgiveness which leads to a right relationship with God.
Finding Peace of Mind – J. Davy Crockett III tomorrowsworld.org
What if you could find, in one place, a guidebook to solve all the problems in the world? Would you read it? Or are things too scary and stressful? Do you just want to hide from it all? The Bible has been interpreted many times, in different ways, by many people, but have you ever read it for yourself to actually understand it? It offers…
Timeline of Easter / Passover tomorrowsworld.org
This is one of those subjects that becomes clearer with a visual aid. There is a lot of confusion around Good Friday, Easter, and Jesus being dead 3 days and 3 nights. As one will see in this 7 min video, the only sign given that Jesus is the Christ did happen as described without the verbal gymnastics required to make the pagan traditions work….
What Is God Really Like? – John Ogwyn tomorrowsworld.org
So many religions, so many conflicting views about God. And what about the Trinity? If there are so many differing versions of God, how can you know which one is true? There is a definitive authoritative work that reveals the truth, the very book inspired by God himself wherein He reveals himself, reveals the Son and the truth about the Holy Spirit. The Bible is…
Proof of God – Rick Avent lifehopeandtruth.com
In uncertain times we want answers. We want to know what is true and how to build a solid foundation. God provides that foundation, but how do we even know that He exists? What proof is there that God is who He says He is? There is a logical path to believing in the existence of God. Don’t be afraid to explore that path and…
The Purpose of the Sabbath sabbath.org
The Bible asks its adherents to keep the 7th day of the week (Saturday) “holy” as a time of rest and reflection on the word of God. God created the Sabbath for the benefit of human-kind from the beginning. Only He has the authority to designate what time is holy, and the Bible is clear and consistent on this instruction. Why? Because the Sabbath day…
What is Repentance? – Darris McNeely ucg.org
What is true repentance? Is it feeling badly about what you’ve done wrong? Is it just a matter of saying you’re sorry? What does God really say about repentance? Yes, it is an acknowledgement of wrong doing, but it takes the next step which is a commitment to not repeat the mistake, to not repeat the offense. With a committed turn to right living, a…
The Bible and Archaeology ucg.org
Can you trust the Bible as authoritative? It has long been considered so, but in recent centuries its accuracy was challenged. Biblical archaeology compares the findings of archaeology to the writings of the Bible. Many scholars deemed the Bible of little historical or religious merit and science in general has grown biased against it. Yet even famous scholars of the early 20th century, after careful…
This Body of Death – Ted E. Bowling cgg.org
Within our calling is a lifelong examination and discovery of the sin that permeates our very being. What’s revealed to us is a sinful nature that’s likened to that of a dead and rotting body as possibly alluded to by the apostle Paul.
What Are the Meanings of God’s Festivals? – David Treybig lifehopeandtruth.com
The world is becoming an increasingly dark place. Many struggle to find purpose and joy given a seemingly dismal future, however there is much encouragement to be gained from learning of God’s plan. His holy days perfectly map out the plan of salvation that God has been executing since the beginning of time. He has a plan for this world and He has a plan…
