  1. Harvest 1874

    It is never too soon to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.

    It is not fear but love which draws the true believer to the Lord, those who believe out of fear are not true believers, they believe only because they are in fear of the just retribution which they know shall fall upon all sinners, in this case what they have been erroneously been taught...
  2. Harvest 1874

    It is never too soon to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.

    It all comes down to your opening words, "Those that reject Jesus". In order for one to intelligently (with a proper understanding i.e. with a knowledge of the truth) to reject the Lord they must first be made acquainted with him. Now it is self-evident that those who lived prior to our Lord's...

    It is never too soon to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.

    Sorry but that's not what the scriptures teach, that's what men teach. Not everyone at the present time (i.e. during the Gospel age or in ages past) has been brought to the knowledge of the truth (that Christ died as a ransom sacrifice for all men) for the vast majority of mankind this knowledge...

    What is a Soul?, Part 2

    So what is a soul? Where did it come from, how did it originate? Let’s let the Lord answer this question. “And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being (soul).” NKJV Gen 2:7 “The word ‘soul;’ as found in...

    What is a Soul?, Part 1

    I previously posted this under one of the threads on the forum, but it has gotten lost amoungst the clutter, so for the sake of those interested we post it here again as a blog post much which we believe is much easier to access. Upon examining some of the various threads on this forum with...

    Scripture with Scripture

    The Trinity is a fundamental doctrine (error) of orthodoxy, and those of us who don’t share this doctrine are accused of all manner of heresy. First of all we do believe in the divinity of Christ despite what our accusers say, that is that following his sacrifice on the cross and subsequent...

    Scripture with Scripture

    It is a common saying that “the Bible is an old fiddle upon which any tune can be played”–a Catholic tune, a Baptist tune, a Presbyterian tune, or any tune the player may desire. However in contrast to what the various creeds of men teach, when properly examined, the Bible can be used to play...

    Abortion ?

    Agreed

    Abortion ?

    Naomi states: in regards to infants, “there is no real way you can have any real way of knowing if they are re-born”. Enoch111’s reply: They do not need to be re-born as we know the New Birth. God will surely give them the gift of the Holy Spirit by His grace. After all eternal life is indeed...

    Abortion ?

    A soul is a combination of an organism and the breath of life, when a person dies the breath of life returns to its source, and the organism returns to the dust from which it came, and the soul or being ceases to exist. “And so it is written, the first man Adam was made a living soul; the last...

    Abortion ?

    Actually there is it’s called the scriptures. What do the scriptures say in these regards, well first of all they say that flesh and blood shall not inherit the kingdom of heaven (i.e. the spiritual phase of the kingdom). They inform us that only those who have been baptized into Christ death...

    The Only Way, Part 20

    It is worthy of note that the Word of God, the Truth (the Bible), is represented in both the Laver in the Courtyard, and in the Golden Lampstand in the Holy, The difference? The Laver was made of polished copper (Exod 30:18; 38:8) and contained water for the cleansing of the priesthood (both the...

    The Only Way, Part 19

    As stated in our last post, the Golden Lampstand represents the complete Church from its Head, Jesus to and including the last members of the “Little Flock” whom he is taking out from among men to be partakers of the divine (Gold) nature. As our Lord so stated: the seven candlesticks which you...

    The Sheep and Goat judgement

    A distinction is made between the risen dead in the next age (those resuscitated who will take part in the resurrection by judgement), and those presently living now during the Gospel age, considered dead, but risen in Christ. The GWT Judgement has nothing to do with any of the risen in Christ...

    The Sheep and Goat judgement

    The verse you quote from Revelation does not apply at the present time, nevertheless we agree, faith without works is dead.

    Resuscitation ?

    If he wasn't resuscitated (i.e. awakened from the sleep of death), that only leaves two other possibilities reincarnation or resurrection both of of which could not be. For one the ransom was not yet given and resurrection still a long ways off and two reincarnation the belief that an individual...

    Resuscitation ?

    And yet the Lord resuscitated Lazarus whom he plainly stated was dead (John 11:14) four days later (John 11:39), how do you explain that?

    The Only Way, Part 18

    The form of the Lamp Stands workmanship was beautiful; picture it if you would, a fruit (a pomegranate) and then a flower, following successively one after another up the main shaft, and likewise out and up the various branches, this represented the True Church as being both beautiful and...

    The Only Way, Part 17

    Having entered through the first vail of the Tabernacle into the “Holy” or spirit begotten condition the first thing we note is that there are three distinctive pieces of furniture located in this chamber, the Golden Lampstand, the Table of Showbread, and the Golden Altar. These three items are...

    The Sheep and Goat judgement

    The trouble here is that many fail to rightly divide the word of God into its proper times and seasons, the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats does not apply the Gospel age, but to the next age following the establishment of the Mediatorial reign. This is clearly implied in the opening verse...
