We would very much like to do a study on Revelation as it is apparent from the many confused ideas being circulated on this forum that there is much debate as to what is truth, but of course this is something to be expected for Babylon (the professing church) is (in the state of) confusion even...

DISTINCTLY DIFFERENT SALVATIONS Here note the difference between the blessing God designed for the elect church He is selecting during this gospel age and the one he purposes for the world of mankind. The church’s blessing is not “restitution,” and in harmony with this we can see no evidence of...

“TIMES OF RESTITUTION” In full accord with all that we discussed in our previous post is the apostle’s statement respecting the blessings that are to come to mankind during the millennial age, following our Lord’s second advent and the glorification of His church to joint heirship with Himself...

FEW HAVE NECESSARY KNOWLEDGE The means for the blessing we see provided in Christ and His bride, the elect church of the Gospel age, but the guarantee of the whole is fixed beyond peradventure in the fact that “Jesus Christ by the grace of God tasted death for every man,” or, as our text...

A COMMON ERROR CORRECTED At this point many good people laboring under a degree of blindness, the “smoke of the dark ages,” feel disposed to object and to insist that there can be no future probation. Ask them why, their reply is that the entire Scriptural teaching contradicts the thought of a...

NOT A LIMITED ATONEMENT “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who will have all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be...

We have already seen that the 1000-year period which began in Autumn 1874 A.D. is the 49th (1000 year day) from the beginning of the "days" of creation (46,128 B.C.), and the 7th (1000 year day) from the fall of Adam (4126 B.C.), and that, therefore, it may be regarded as a great “Sabbath year."...

In the first chapter of Genesis each of the six "days" of creation is divided into an “evening” and a “morning." The great seventh “day" of Jehovah may also be equally divided into an "evening" and a "morning." The central point of this great 7000-year day is the date Autumn 627 B.C., i.e., the...

The Jubilee Prophecy is the only direct chronological proof of our Lord’s return, thus it is imperative that we fully comprehend it. The method by which the Israelite's were instructed to calculate the precise year when they were to sound the trumpet of jubilee, namely, the cycle of 7 times 7...

"IF YE BE CHRIST'S, THEN ARE YE ABRAHAM'S SEED AND HEIRS." Another matter, really the key to the whole question which we are discussing, is revealed in God's Word, viz., that in the divine purpose the promised "Seed of Abraham" that should perform the great work of blessing all the families of...

NOT UNIVERSAL SALVATION BUT A UNIVERSAL OPPORTUNITY FOR SALVATION. The Apostle tells us that God preached the Gospel beforehand to Abraham, "beforehand" signifying before it was due to begin; for the Gospel did not begin with Abraham, but with our Lord Jesus Christ, as the Apostle again...

But what of our question, what is the Gospel to which the Apostle was not ashamed? As we had previously stated, The true Gospel must show divine Wisdom and Power in full accord with divine Justice and Love: of any other we should be ashamed. CONSIDER NOW THE TRUE GOSPEL. The word "gospel"...

The ARMINIAN view of the Gospel Let us now examine the Armenian view. This view is growing popular. Its message or Gospel is God is love, he loves you; he loves everybody; he is doing all that he can to save everybody; if you are lost it will not be God's fault, but your own. On the surface...
The Gospel according to ROMAN CATHOLICISM The Gospel according to Roman Catholicism is that all men fell into sin and are under sentence of eternal torment: that Christ accomplished a redemptive work which, supplemented by the sacrifice of the mass, and by prayers and penances, permits all...

"I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ." (Rom 1:16) “No one of intelligence will dispute the meaning of the word "Gospel;" it signifies "GOOD TIDINGS," good news, --a good message. Nevertheless, in some unaccountable manner, by common consent, "a real Gospel sermon" is almost universally...

Rest and Restitution Although God entered into his rest after he passed the sentence of death upon Adam, Jesus intimated that his Father had nevertheless been working—"My Father works hitherto, and I work” (John 5:17). This does not seem in agreement with the statement that God was resting...

Rest and Restitution "The Apostle Paul explains that the Law was a "shadow of good things to come," and that the experiences of the children of Israel "happened unto them as types, and are written for our admonition on whom the ends of the Ages have come" (Heb. 10:1; 1 Cor. 10:10, margin). Now...

THE RAPTURE: A SCRIPTURAL EXAMINATION The popular doctrine of the secret rapture is that Christ will return to earth, unknown to the world, and will take those who have accepted salvation through him up to heaven before the “great tribulation.” The Left Behind series dramatically depicts the...

(The following extract was taken from The End Times Spring 2001 Issue # 16) HOPE BEYOND ARMAGEDDON The Left Behind series of religious novels by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins, and the movies based upon these books promote an overly dramatic and sadistic view of end time prophecy. The authors...

Ability to love implies ability to hate; hence we may reason that the Creator could not make man in his own likeness, with power to love and to do right, without the corresponding ability to hate and to do wrong. This liberty of choice, termed free moral agency, or free will, is a part of man's...
