"Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of Me." Ever read through Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy and thought, "Good gravy, will all these laws ever end?" Seemingly innumerable laws about oxen and crop rotation and clothing and...

"And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold, but he that shall endure to the end, the same shall be saved." - Matthew 24:12-13 KJV Here, Jesus contrasts the fate of the "many" with the fate of him who will "endure unto the end" and wind up "saved". The context of...

A "remnant sale" is where many craft enthusiasts go to purchase the last portion that remains on a bolt of carpet or a bolt of clothing material -- and while the size and price of the leftovers will vary, one thing remains constant: the last portion is IDENTICAL to that which was there in the...

This is for anyone who's ever taken a stand for God and found themselves suffering great loss for doing it: Remember, "the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole Earth, to shew Himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward Him." 2003 was a very difficult year...

Many today foolishly argue that Christians aren't obligated to keep the Ten Commandments but refuse to say we may disregard even one of them. A blind man can see both claims can't simultaneously be true any more than a woman can be both pregnant and not pregnant at the same time. This OP is not...

A supervisor used to ask the low performers if their problem was their "skill or will" meaning, are they in need of further skill training, or is it that they just don't care? Over 60 percent of "Christian" men admit they view pornography...one wonders how many of the remaining 40 percent were...

I'm sure most will immediately disagree, and rightly so. Jesus' fulfilling of the Spirit of the Law in us does not permit us to break the Letter of the Law. Yes, the Letter of the Law is a killer, but to whom? To him who attempts to obtain salvation through observing it - which is impossible...

BIBLICAL PROOF THAT JESUS IS THE GOD OF THE OT: GOD IS GOD: "I Am the God of thy father." (Exodus 3:6 KJV) JESUS IS GOD: "And Thomas answered and said unto Him, My Lord and my God." (John 20:28 KJV) ONLY ONE GOD: "To us there is but one God." (1 Corinthians 8:6 KJV)...

"And he shall confirm the covenant..." 1) DOES THE BIBLE SAY ANTICHRIST MAKES A COVENANT? No - the Bible doesn't say Antichrist makes anything...it says "he shall confirm" the covenant. The act of confirming a thing always follows the act of establishing the thing. You can only confirm a...

The end times. There are many words used to describe it: final, climactic, earth-shaking...and everyone is expecting that Earth's history will unfold as a long time span of uneventful, almost unbearable boredom of inactivity interrupted by a sudden, abrupt period of sheer terror that will sweep...

"Jesus is my rest, so I can disregard the commandment to keep holy the seventh day." "Jesus is my Truth, so I can disregard the commandment to not lie." Jesus is my Reward, so I can disregard the commandment to not steal." "Consistency, thou art a jewel" said Shakespeare, so inconsistency...

Supposed "ex" Jesuit Voltaire once wrote, "To find out who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.” The following statement, if made today, can get you thrown in jail for the crime of "hate speech" in many countries. "O, Christ, my Lord, look down upon us and bring...

"We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty." -- Pope Leo XIII The word "Antichrist" means to "take the place of Christ".

There are only two choices for the Christian: the one choice is to believe as this wonderful statement from the Review and Herald, Dec. 15, 1885, testifies about the relevancy and role of Scripture: "The Bible, and the Bible alone, is to be our creed, the sole bond of union; all who bow to this...

How do we harmonize Scriptures which teach the plain truth that we are saved by grace through faith which is not of ourselves, but a gift from God, not of works, lest any man should boast - with many other Scriptures which apparently teach salvation is also, to one degree or another, by works...

The company I work for is so militant about the idea of "doing more with less" that is seems they think we'll eventually be able to do everything with nothing at all. Thank goodness we have Christianity Board whose creators appear to operate with a far more reasonable mindset...or do they...

Most of us know about the prophecy Daniel was shown in chapter 8 and that he understood all of it as it was explained to him: the ram, the two horns, the goat, the notable horn, the four horns, the little horn, etc. - EXCEPT there was a portion that so confused and blew his mind that he...

When considering the Five Points of Calvinism, the first point - "total depravity" - insists that: man, being dead in sin, cannot desire to escape the punishment of sin any more than a dead man desires to escape the grave he's buried in man cannot "accept Christ" as his Savior from sin because...

"The Lord is well pleased for His (Jesus') righteousness sake. He (Jesus) will magnify the law and make it honorable." - Isaiah 42:21 KJV. "But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." - Matthew 5:28 KJV My twin...

God chose some of us to be saved while the rest of us are up the creek without a paddle, right? Of course, the sound of that is about as foreign a concept to the character of Jesus - and the Father, as told to Philip - as is foreign the concept of a Federal budget without deficit spending. So...
