THE ANTI-TYPICAL LEVITES
Is there any question as to there being an antitype?
Surely not when we summarize the preceding paragraphs and note afresh the minuteness of detail given us by God's Word in regard to this class. In brief, the Scriptures teach:
1) On the Passover night the first-born...
THE SELECTION OF LEVI
The patriarch Jacob's descendants through his twelve sons, after having multiplied in Egypt, were reduced to virtual slavery. God raised up for them a great deliverer, Moses, and by ten plagues revealed His mighty power, until Pharaoh permitted the Israelite's to depart...
We present the following subject due to the fact that there are still many who are confused over the issue of the Great Company, who they are and what should be their ultimate fate. Much of this confusion is centered over one particular statement found in Revelation Chapter 7 Verse 9 which...
The following is in response to a comment made by a fellow member of the Bible Students Forum. We present it here for further insight on the Two Salvation’s.
Our friend states:
To me the idea that there are two salvations seems to contradict the simple facts presented in the scriptures that...
What do you see wrong with this picture?
Our JW friends are very fond of claiming the Great Company mentioned in Revelation Chapter 7 is in reference to themselves, but how then if they claim to be Jehovah’s WITNESSES (keep in mind our witness for God is more than simply a witness in word...
Continuing with our review of what we have leaned thus far in this study on who the Great Company is and if the Jehovah’s Witnesses fit the bill, we move on to point number,
7) As was stated in our previous post, we have a class here of consecrated individuals (spirit begotten) all of whom the...
Let us review what we have so far.
Remember what our original intent was for this study?
It was our intent to determine whom precisely the Great Company class was and from whence they originated this so as to determine for ourselves once and for all if our friends the Jehovah’s Witnesses fit...
We continue with what the apostle Paul was speaking about concerning those whose work would be burned up.
“Deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.” (1 Cor 5:5)
Who was the Apostle referring to here when he states...
“Each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is. If anyone’s work which he has built on it (the one true foundation) endures, he will receive a reward. If anyone’s work is burned, he...
Continued from our previous post.
It is apparent that some fell to produce the fruits necessary in order to make their calling and election sure because they fell to abide in the Lord, rather they allow the cares of this world, jobs, family, friends, ambitions and etc. to draw them away, and so...
In the Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins (Matt 25) our Lord mentions that both the wise AND the foolish were considered “virgins” what does this imply, what makes them all virgins?
They are virgins in that they have been sanctified by God, made holy and acceptable to Him through the...
Who specifically was the Apostle referring to here (beside himself), when speaking of being a “castaway” (1 Cor 9:27)?
I believe the answer to the first part of this question is found in the Apostles opening address to this Epistle.
“To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are...
Thus far we believe we have established,
1) that the typical Levites represented a class of individuals separate and distinct from the rest of the world, separated (i.e., sanctified, set apart) by God, and
2) that unlike the rest of mankind they are to receive no inheritance in the land, (that...
In Exodus Chapter 12 we read of the institution of the Passover.
“The term Passover signifies to pass by or spare from an affliction. When the last plague was visited upon Egypt, the houses of the Israelite's were all marked with the blood of a slain lamb, that the destroying angel might not...
"Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees (Doctors of the Law then, now days referred to as Doctors of Divinity), you hypocrites! You shut the kingdom of heaven (the spiritual or heavenly phase of the kingdom) in men's faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are...
Once again returning to our previous questions in regards to Armageddon.
Although we are certain that many shall perish during the final climatic struggle between the old order and the new thankfully the Scriptures assure us that none of these shall see Second Death that is until first, they...
“What the Apostle calls the just and the unjust, our Lord in our text calls the good and the evil. That neither the Lord nor the Apostle meant to intimate that any of mankind are good, perfect in the absolute sense, is most evident from the trend of the Scriptures, which assure us in various...
In our previous post we had suggested several questions which we believe that when rightfully understood will shed further light upon our subject, that subject of course being the thought purposed by the Society, that those who perish in the final climatic end of the great time of trouble...
As was stated earlier, this discussion took place sometime back on another forum in which several x-Jehovah’s Witnesses as well as some active members who had joined the Bible Students forum were asked to explain the Societies teaching that those who perish during the great time of trouble...
Having in our last post seen the general view on this issue as stated by the Society we now would like to see what Victor had to say.
Victor states:
“The war of Armageddon will cleanse the earth of all corruption and wickedness and open the way for a righteous new system of things under the...
