“Shall the trumpet be blown in a city, and the people not be afraid? Shall evil befall a city, and Jehovah hath not done it?” (Amos 3:6)

The First Atonement Day Sacrifice, the “Bullock”
“Thus shall Aaron (The High Priest) come into the holy place: with a young bullock for a sin offering…” (Lev 16:3)

“Lazarus represented the God-fearing people of other nations (the Gentiles) debarred, until the close of the Jewish Age, from those blessings conferred upon Israel specially. As the linen represented Israel's justification, so the sores represented moral defilement in this class, for whose...
“There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate, desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table. Moreover the dogs came and...

The Book of Life
“...And the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.” Rev 20:12
In our previous post we determined that the first set of books which were...
Under what law shall mankind be judged?
“...And the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.” Rev 20:12
We will need to break this scripture apart in order...

Before I start this blog, I will like to apologise for the long hiatus.
The Holy Spirit, is our inner being, it lives inside of us. Doctors cannot even identify, the Holy Spirit with their medical instruments. 1 Corinthians 6:19. ‘Do you not know that your bodies are temples...
God is a GOOD FATHER who is perfecting and completing all that concerns His children that they would stand in secure places of strength in the season ahead.
"In the day when I cried out, You answered me, and made me bold with strength in my soul...Though I walk in the midst of trouble, YOU WILL...
Continuing from our previous post we return to our question, what will be the nature of the judgment, which shall befall mankind?
“And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the...
The nature of the judgement befalling mankind
Our next inquiry, would naturally be, what would be the nature of the judgment, which shall befall mankind? Is it something to be feared and dreaded by mankind as many have suggested? Once again let us turn to the scriptures to answer this question...
There are in fact two viewpoints of the Day of Atonement provided for us in the Scriptures, the first of which is describe in Leviticus Chapter 9 is taken from the standpoint of the flesh, from our viewpoint, while the other as describe in Leviticus Chapter 16 is as these sacrifices are viewed...
2 Timothy 1:4,6,7 - "Greatly desiring to see you, being mindful of your tears.....I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you....For God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind."
There are times when you know what God has called you to do, but...
Continued from previous post.
We will now examine some more scriptures, which show a differentiation between the judgment of the world and that of the Church, and as to when they take place.
In Acts 17:31 it was stated that "…God… hath appointed a day, in which he will judge the world in...
The time of the Judgment
Let us now look at a seeming contradiction that some imagine implies that the judgment of the world is not in the millennial age, but is taking place now. John 12:31
“Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.”
Most authorities...
“For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?”
VictoryinJesus asked: Are we not judged by the work of Christ? 1 Pet 4:17 “the end of them that obey not the gospel of God.” What...
VictoryinJesus asked: I’ve read part 1, 2, and 3 and have so many questions. I won’t ask them all here but one that is really bugging me. Maybe I’ve misunderstood but you seem to be saying there are steps one must do to earn grace.
There are no steps to earn God’s grace; it is a free gift, an...
