We have previously shown two types of resurrections The First Resurrection, the resurrection unto life, which will consist of only the faithful over-comers of the Gospel age, and the resurrection of judgment, or of the unjust, which will be for the remainder of mankind during the millennial...

The First Resurrection (Continued from our previous post.) The Church as joint-heirs with their Lord have been begotten “…to an inheritance incorruptible, (immortal), and undefiled, and that fades not away, reserved in heaven for you…” 1 Pet 1:4 “And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye...

The First Resurrection We will now show from the scriptures that there are three different types of resurrections mention in the scriptures. By “type” of course we mean the manner or way in which the resurrection is to take place. First off we have already shown that there is to be a...

The following are some interesting questions asked by a member of the forum in response to our study of the Resurrection. First question: Am I right in thinking that the first resurrection will take place at the end of the tribulation period? Actually the first resurrection takes place prior...
What of the Resurrection, Who is it for? In this study we will be looking at the four different types of resurrections. First off, what do the scriptures say of the resurrection, and who will be resurrected? “But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was...

“A correct understanding of the reign of the church is difficult to grasp unless one appreciates also the concept of the two phases of the kingdom of God. The church, together with Christ, will constitute the spiritual ruling class. They will direct the affairs of the kingdom in a manner similar...

How clear is the fact that there is to be both a spiritual and an earthly phase to God’s Kingdom! And yet even the Master’s disciples at first could not understand this. Just as their conception of the Kingdom was limited to the idea of a selected Jewish nation under the headship of an earthly...

Continued from previous post. Now the question is asked if as the scriptures state God has provided these various agencies (viz. apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers), “Is it right to follow the teachings of any ONE MAN? “The Scriptures answer, “One is your Master, even...

In Acts 8:26-40 we read of an Ethiopian eunuch, who on his way back to Ethiopia was found reading from the scriptures, the prophet Isaiah, but who apparently did not understand what he was reading, so the Lord sent Philip to him saying, “Do you understand what you are reading?” the eunuchs reply...

The following are some interesting questions asked by a member of the forum in response to our study of the Mediator and the New Covenant. I'm curious as to why you think the new covenant is not already in place? In Reply, The New Covenant cannot go into place (become operative) until the...
“Behold the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant which they...

Having we hope now determined who specifically the Mediator is we would now like to address our last question, where and when does this mediation begin? More to the point where (or with whom precisely is the new covenant mediated) and when will this mediation commence? “Behold the days are...

We continue once again with our forth question, who specifically is the Mediator? In this study we would like to take a quick look at the “Testator” to see how this is related to the Mediator. Testator: a person who has made a will or given a legacy. “And for this reason he is the Mediator of...

Who specifically is the Mediator? As we had stated at the end of our last post the typical answer to this question is Christ, but who is THE Christ? What say the Scriptures? “For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also...

Once again our question: Who are the parties in dispute who require mediation? The Scriptures indicate that the two parties are God on the one hand and the “sons of disobedience” on the other; those not yet reconciled to him, “children of wrath”, out of harmony both with himself and with his...

Who are the parties in dispute who require mediation? In the general sense we have already addressed this question by affirming that the dispute is between God and the “sons of disobedience” (Eph 5:6), that it is these two parties who have need of mediation in order to facilitate...

Why is a mediator necessary? “The need of a Mediator arises out of the fact of sin. Sin interrupts the harmonious relation between God and man. It results in a state of mutual alienation. On the one hand, man is in a state of enmity to God (Rom 5:10; 8:7; Col 1:21). On the other hand, God is...

A common and erroneous thought held by many professing Christians today is that the Lord is (presently) engaged in the work of mediation, mediating the New Covenant between God and the Church. They imagine that this New Covenant went into effect during our Lord’s first advent when it is assumed...

The Special or Great Salvation “Let us now take a glance at the other salvation; the special one called in Scripture, “THE salvation,” “YOUR salvation,” “OUR salvation,” “so GREAT salvation,” and etc. (Luke 3:6; Eph 1:13; Phil 2:12; Rom 13:11; Heb 2:3; 1 Pet 1:10). Like the other, this...
