    The Great Company

    Revelation 7:9-17 describes a picture of the spiritual classes, of which the “great multitude” is a piece of this puzzle. The setting of the picture is heaven, a spiritual plane of existence. After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations...

    Question for JWs on the Memorial

    Today, all around the world Jehovah's Witnesses will be gathering in Hal k s and rented rooms to observe the Memorial aka passover / communion. Most JWs do not partake of the bread and wine as they believe ONLY 144,000 are spirit-begotten and going to heaven. My question (and this isn't a...

    Christ Died for All

    Yahweh’s love for the sin- cursed and dying race has been made operative through the gift of his Son to be man’s Redeemer. In John 3:16 we read, "God So loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." This text...

    Yahweh or Jehovah?

    In Hebrew, God's name is written as YHWH. Because ancient Hebrew did not include written vowels, the original pronunciation is unclear. However, there are Greek records that do include vowels, suggesting that the name was probably pronounced as "Yahweh." Around the beginning of the first...

    What the Bible Teaches About SOUL and SPIRIT

    “The soul that sinneth, it shall die” (Ezekiel 18:4). This brief text expresses a simple truth. Souls die. Against the speculations of some that there is something within a man, a “soul,” which remains alive after death, lingering as a disembodied spirit, the scriptures affirm to the contrary...

    Did the Apostle Paul believe that the Jews (natural Israel) were Rejected by Jehovah Forever?

    “I ask, then, God did not reject his people, did he? Never may that happen!” - Romans 11:1 (NWT) Let's see how Paul continues to answer this questions in Romans 11. * In Rom 11:7, 8 shows that the nation of Israel did not obtain what it sought. Paul goes on in verses 9 and 10 showing that...

    Jesus Christ the “Ransom for All”

    We find in 1 Timothy 2:5, 6: “The man Christ Jesus; who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.” What does ransom mean? The Greek term for ransom is antilutron, which Dr. Young defines as “a corresponding price.” One perfect man served as a substitute for Adam, the perfect...

    Why Does the Savior Need to Be Both God and Man?

    The idea of the Trinity argues that Jesus must be both God and man to be our Savior. If he were just a human, they ask, how could he bear the sins of everyone? It seems fitting to make grand statements about Jesus. Often, we struggle to honor our Savior enough for his immense sacrifice, so why...

    Babylon, the mother of Harlots

    In Revelation 17:3, notice how Babylon, the mother of harlots is described: “and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of names of blasphemy having seven heads and 10 horns” Babylon is described as a woman and a woman in Bible prophecy symbolizes a church, for example the...

    Phileo and Agape Love

    DUTY-LOVE (PHILEO) ILLUSTRATED. "He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me." – Matt. 10:37. Duty-love to our family relatives is right, but it must not equal our duty-love toward the Lord, else we can...

    The Church of God

    The following is part of an article by Horatius Bonar (1808-1889) The Church of God on earth is not what she seems; nay, is what she seems not. She is not a beggar, yet she seems one; she is a King's bride, yet she seems not. It was so with her Lord while here. He was not what men thought him...

    Following the Master

    Jesus invited those who believed on him to become his followers. He made it plain, however, that the only ones who could be his true followers were those willing to deny themselves and bear the cross. (Matt. 16:24) Jesus explained that those who did not love him even more than they loved the...
