Continued from previous post. We will now examine some more scriptures, which show a differentiation between the judgment of the world and that of the Church, and as to when they take place. In Acts 17:31 it was stated that "…God… hath appointed a day, in which he will judge the world in...

The time of the Judgment Let us now look at a seeming contradiction that some imagine implies that the judgment of the world is not in the millennial age, but is taking place now. John 12:31 “Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.” Most authorities...

“For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?” VictoryinJesus asked: Are we not judged by the work of Christ? 1 Pet 4:17 “the end of them that obey not the gospel of God.” What...

VictoryinJesus asked: I’ve read part 1, 2, and 3 and have so many questions. I won’t ask them all here but one that is really bugging me. Maybe I’ve misunderstood but you seem to be saying there are steps one must do to earn grace. There are no steps to earn God’s grace; it is a free gift, an...

The Judgment of the World We will now take a look at our second scripture, Acts 17:31 God "…hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath risen him from the dead.”...

“For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God, and if it first begins with us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?” 1 Pet 4:17 Our word judgment may be properly applied to not only the process of the trial, but also to the result of the trial that...

Judgment begins with the House of God In this study we will be looking at several different judgments, which are recorded in the Bible. Our aim is to find out when these judgments take place, and to whom exactly they apply. The first thing we need in order to avoid any misunderstandings and/or...

We have now shown three different types of resurrections that will take place, 1) Those who take part in The First Resurrection, resurrected to the divine nature, Immortality, instantaneously, the first-fruits 2) The faithful of the pass, justified by faith, who have an instantaneous...

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...

It is recalled that to God's ancient people there were appointed five great festivals, all of a pictorial or illustrative character: 1) The Feast of Trumpets -- welcoming the new civil year on the first of Tizri (September, October), one day only. The feast was of special significance every...

“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. Since we understand the importance given to Moses in explaining every minute detail involved in the Tabernacle and its ceremonies, that every jot and title had to be exactly performed in the type due to the fact that it illustrated something greater and far more...
