  1. Harvest 1874

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    In a parable the things said are not the things meant. For example in the Parable of the Wheat and the tares when the Lord spoke of “wheat” he was not talking about actual wheat nor was he talking about actual “tares” (weeds). The “reapers” were not actual reapers working an actual wheat field...

    Water Baptism:

    “For Christ also *suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit, by whom also He went and preached to the spirits in prison, who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine long-suffering waited in...

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    That's strange because as I read the Scriptures they say that you are wrong.

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    No it is not separation from God, the Scriptures are quite clear on this matter, the wages of sin is death (the opposite of life, i.e. the cessation of life), the soul that sins it shall die, period. To believe that the soul somehow continues to live on is to fall prey to the lie first put...

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    In other words you're saying that the Lord's prophets of old who were moved by the holy spirit, the same spirit which speaks to us today gave them a completely different interpretation of the matter. Sorry but I'm not seeing that.

    Is Hell worse for Some?

    And I would say to you that you are wrong, it most certainly is a parable, unfortunately one which those who believe in a hell of eternal torment fell to properly understand. To force a literal interpretation on this parable involves all manner of absurdities. For those not fully given over to...

    Agreed, for more on this see our blog post entitled, "A Great Blasphemy, Part 8"

    IN Christ Jesus, Part 8

    “A few additional thoughts concerning the Abrahamic Covenant as mentioned in our last post under which the "Seed" is developed. Note this particular statement of Psa 50:5, "Those who have made a covenant with me." Here Jehovah intimates that those who have presented their bodies a living...

    IN Christ Jesus, Part 7

    Our Covenant is: “A Covenant by Sacrifice NOT the New Covenant” From our studies thus far we have learned that the New Covenant is to become fully operational by the close of this Gospel Age, when once the Mediator (the Christ, Head and Body) is made complete, and that it is this covenant under...

    Agreed, even as was covered in Part 26 of Our Lord's Great Prophecy.

    We really CAN'T answer some of these

    This reminds me of the time long ago before I became a Bible Student, when I was still a Baptist, I remember taking a list of ten questions (I believe they were with regards to Revelation) to my Pastor for answers and he gave me the same old song and dance, viz. 'I'll tell you what you take...

    The Restrainer

    I believe it is derived from a quote of Vera Stanley Alder in which she said: “Knowledge is the accumulation of facts wisdom is the deduction from these facts of useful laws, a process which can only take place by comparing the facts in one compartment with those in all others, thus giving a...

    BEYOND THE VAIL, Part 2

    All believers coming through the "curtain" (the “First Vail”) are "called to be saints," but only those who obey the call and YIELD themselves sacrifices (fulfilling their covenant of sacrifice), "make their calling and election sure." Thus this first vail represents clearly our death to the...

    BEYOND THE VAIL, Part 1

    “In his letter to the Hebrews, the Apostle frequently refers to a vail. He is writing to those who were familiar with the earthly tabernacle, its arrangements and services. The Apostle endeavors to show that it was only a type or figure designed to illustrate spiritual truths. There were three...

    IN Christ Jesus, Part 6

    What specifically does it mean to enter into a covenant with the Father, a covenant by sacrifice? “Jesus taught (Matt 7:21) that "Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father." What is that will of the Father? Paul...

    IN Christ Jesus, Part 5

    Having in our previous posts (which please see) now an understanding of what it means to be “IN Christ Jesus”, the next question naturally would be, How does one get “IN Christ Jesus” in the first place? How do we get into the body of Christ? The Apostle answers that we were baptized into...

    Agreed, “Knowledge is the accumulation of facts and understanding comes from the connecting of these facts one with the other. These processes begin in earliest childhood, when one is "weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breast." The very method employed by the Lord is the same, which...

    Hell . . . The Bad News.

    He has been propagating the teachings of the “beast” (Catholicism), while others have been propagating the teachings of the “image of the beast” (Protestantism), but this in no way implies that either will face eternal destruction, certainly not eternal torment as is generally taught by both...

    Revelation Chapter 8 Once again we would like to take a look at Verses 3-5 and the censer-bearing angel as explained in The Keys of Revelation. “And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the...
