In any discussion of the duration of the lake of fire, it inevitably boils down to the meaning of the Greek word aionios and the Hebrew word olam. The words literally mean “age” or “age-abiding,” but they are often translated “eternal” or “everlasting” in the modern English translations. And so...

Israel's second time of trouble was primarily a time of separation between Judah and Joseph. At the end of 210 years of separation, the two nations theoretically should have been reunited and the breach repaired. This did not happen, because the people did not repent and because God had yet...

Jesus came as the Lion of the tribe of Judah the first time, in order to secure His throne rights as the Messiah. He comes the second time to the tribes of Joseph in order to secure His birthright, which is His Kingdom. This is apparent to those who have studied the two works of Christ as...

Yes I do, but the Elect of God was not justified legally until Jesus died on the cross. In other words, God madeit legal in the Divine Court after Jesus died.Hebrews 9:24 says,For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, [which are] the figures of the true; but into heaven...

I heard it said once that we are justified by faith, but that we are sanctified by the law. He who made that statement was trying to motivate the people to obey God's law, because this is God's standard of sin and righteousness. However, he fell into the same trap that men have fallen into for...

An overcomer is one who makes the journey all the way from “Egypt” to the “Promised Land.” To do this, he must first leave Egypt. That is, he experiences Passover by placing his faith in Jesus Christ, the “Lamb of God” (John 1:29). In the New Testament, this is called “Justification” (Rom...

Krissie, what part of Passover you don't understand. You are saved byfaith in the Lamb of God. Don't you remember when the Israelites killeda Passover Lamb in Egypt. They believed what God said and they werespared or passed over by the death angel. When we believe on the Lamb of God, we are...

A particular harvest is associated with each of these three feast days. Passover is associated with the harvest of barley; Pentecost is associated with the harvest of wheat; and Tabernacles is associated specifically with the grape harvest. Because this is so little-known, most do not understand...

In order to understand the booths "Lookin'4wardtoheaven" we need to goback to the three main feasts.Exodus 23:14-17.14 Three times a year you shall celebrate a feast to Me. 15 You shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread; for seven days you are to eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at...

But it is not our purpose to criticize the Church or any portion of it. Our purpose is to help those who want to learn more of those parts of the Word that are not normally taught in their particular church or study group. Our purpose is to reveal the meaning of these feast days, in order that...

Leviticus 23:43, says only that they were to live in booths for seven days in commemoration of Israel's dwelling in booths during their forty years in the wilderness. We accept this as truth, of course, but there is more to it than that. Later, God did reveal more about this feast than is...

The idols worshipped by men “neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell” (Deut. 4:28). Only the God of the Bible sees, hears, and speaks to men. The nation of Israel was given such a demonstration in the days of Moses when God came down upon Mount Sinai as a consuming fire and revealed to all of...

When Israel came to Mount Sinai and God revealed His character to them by the law, the people were too fearful to enter into the second level of faith. We read in Ex. 20:18-21,18 And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking...

Jonah constructed a booth, which prophetically portrays him to be one who fulfills of the Feast of Booths, or Tabernacles. God then sent a gourd to deliver him from his "discomfort" (NASB). Verse 6 says,6 So the LORD God appointed a plant and it grew up over Jonah to be a shade over his head to...

The second part of the sign of Jonah is prophetic of that which occurs AFTER the resurrection of the dead at the fulfillment of the Feast of Trumpets. Jonah's emergence from the belly of the fish (the heart of the earth) represents the resurrection of the dead at the last trumpet. He came forth...

After Jonah's experience in the fish, God gave Jonah a second call to preach to Nineveh. This is prophetic of the second work of Christ and gives us the clearest view in the Scriptures of the purpose of the second coming of Christ. Jonah 3:1 and 2 says,1 Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah...

Jonah was not exactly thrilled at the idea when God told him to preach in Nineveh. Some have even called him the reluctantprophet. God told Jonah to go north and east, and he went west toward Tarshish (probably Spain). In disobeying God, Jonah fell into a prophetic pattern that manifested the...

Jordan, you and others are missing the point. How can he be a cherub ifhe was a liar and a MURDERER when he was created in Gen. 3:1. Explainthat to me. You are saying he was good and Moses, Jesus, and John sayhe was a liar, murderer, and subtil when HE WAS CREATED. Don't get mad@ me. I didn't...

Okay, I get this from Gen. 3:1. I didn't say that old serpent called the devilwas made by God," the most subtil beast of the field from the beginning". But,doesn't it make sense in (John 8:44) when Jesus says that old serpent wasa MURDERER FROM THE BIGINNING and not a cherub.(1 John 3:8) lines...
