    Understanding the Judgement, Part 5

    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...

    Understanding the Judgement, Part 4

    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...

    Questions on "Understanding the Judgement" continued

    “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...

    Questions on "Understanding the Judgement"

    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...

    Baptism ?

    You are correct, the Lord was not speaking here in John 3:5 of literal water, he was speaking of the "water of truth", unless you are begotten of the truth and the spirit you shall not enter the kingdom of God. We see then that symbolical water represents truth, and that our begetting of the...

    Understanding the Judgement, Part 3

    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.”...

    Understanding the Judgement, Part 2

    “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...

    Understanding the Resurrection, Part 4

    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...

    Understanding the Resurrection, Part 3

    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...

    Understanding the Resurrection, Part 2

    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...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    "In His image" does not mean to be like God in the sense of possessing his physical qualities, his nature, a divine immortal being. Even our Lord (in his pre-human existence) “who, existing in the form of God (a spirit being), didn't consider equality with God (to be like God) a thing to be...

    Questions on "Understanding the Resurrection"

    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...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    As we have attempted to explain over and over again the reward given to the faithful over-comers, the saints, “the body of him” is immortality, life inherent, this in essence is eternal life, but this (type) of eternal life is one which is only given to the sanctified in Christ Jesus, likewise...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    Nor did I ever say that he would not give his own people eternal life, his own people being in reference to mankind, NOT to his brethren, they receive their life from the Father himself. Mankind will receive life from Christ, and if they should be proven faithful during the “little season” at...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    So then you are saying that it was not only the fact that Adam was made by God, but what truly made Adam a son of God was the fact that he received the “breath of life” from God, hummm! Interesting so then that must mean that birds, fish and animals are likewise sons of God seeing as they...

    The Hour of Temptation

    Our last possibility combines aspects of both the first and the second that the hour of temptation relates more specifically to the great time of trouble approaching, (minus the rapture of course). "From the day of Pentecost until the present time the Lord’s dear sheep have been beset by the...
