Exodus 33:14-16 "And He said, 'My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest.' Then he [Moses] said to Him, 'If Thy presence does not go with us, do not lead us up from here. For how then can it be known that I have found favor in Thy sight, I and Thy people? Is it not by Thy going...

C.--If ransomed, why do they remain in death, and others die, since Christ has paid the price? A.--But the price is not yet fully paid. To have a clear understanding of God's plan, we must recognize the distinction which he makes between the world in general and the Church, or called-out ones...

C.--Was everlasting life one of the things possessed by Adam before he sinned, and which he lost in death; and is it to be restored to mankind through Christ's ransom? A.--YES; his continuance of life, if obedient, is implied in the threatening of death if disobedient. Adam, when created...

Numbers 6:24,25 - "The Lord bless you, and keep you; 25 The Lord make His face shine on you, And be gracious to you; " 2020 will be marked with great blessing but do not forget Him when you have need of nothing. Do not forget Him when the desires of your heart have been answered and fulfilled...

Hebrews 2:1,4 - "For this reason we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it. God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders and by various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit according to His own will." We are stepping into a...

1 Corinthians 3:9 - "For we are co-workers in God's service; you are God's field, God's building." Man was made in the likeness and image of God (Genesis 1:26) with the purpose to create with God. Our Father doesn't need us but He desires to partner with His family. Man was created to work in...

Romans 8:37 - "Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us." There is a "parting of the red sea" happening in 2020. You are crossing over into the land that is full of breakthrough, blessing, increase, overflow and the abundance of God. There have been things...

A brother writes: In John 18:36 our Lord is recorded as saying “My Kingdom is not of this world”; we take this to mean that the consecrated have no part in the affairs of this world, as it is not our time to do so. When the Church is complete (head and body) then we will meddle in the affairs of...

The calling on your life has made you a target. Indeed, the enemy is intensely jealous of the LOVE the Father has for you, and he hates you for having what he can never have. Yet, in the darkness of the night, you've endured the enemy's hatred and now the sunrise on your trial has nearly dawned...

In our previous post we took a look at the “Simple Ones”, simple ones were simply naive, unlearned those complacent with ignorance. Now let us consider our next group, “scorners.” Scorners (or mockers) are outwardly critical of others and they find fault when offered good advice. Scorners are...
