1 “These are the names of the tribes: Beginning at the northern extreme, beside the way of Hethlon to Lebo-hamath, as far as Hazar-enan (which is on the northern border of Damascus over against Hamath), and extending from the east side to the west, Dan, one portion. 2 Adjoining the territory of Dan, from the east side to the west, Asher, one portion. 3 Adjoining the territory of Asher, from the…
What does it mean in the Lord’s Prayer when it says, "…on Earth as it is in Heaven…"?
In order to understand this statement, one must first understand that the Bible deals with two programs throughout its pages. The first is prophecy by means of Israel in order to restore earth, and the second is mystery by means of Paul, and the Body of Christ, in order to restore the heavens. Now, keep this in mind as we now tackle the question.
In Matthew 6, Jesus had just finished teaching…
"On the Sabbath, do those things which are pleasing in My sight, that we may be glad together. Come to Me and receive peace, for in Me shall you find rest, says The Lord.
Therefore, My son, give ear to My speech, and let your heart leap with joy in My presence. For I made the Sabbath for man, and not man for the Sabbath.[1] Yet very few understand its true purpose, nor can any comprehend the full scope of its meaning, until the day they enter in. For the Sabbath is more than rest, and the Commandment[2] more than peace, for a day in The Lord is as a thousand years! Therefore, as I rested on the seventh day, so also shall My people. For I had blessed and sanctified the seventh day from the beginning[3], a day set apart and holy, even as those in whom I dwell are set apart and holy."

Amillennialism is up to bat. Does it pass the test of the text? Check out the newest post and see for yourself!
For the majority of my posts on eschatology, or end times, I have pushed back against “pre-trib” interpretations primarily. I have defended Pre-Wrath eschatology thoroughly. But as we move forward in the end times chronology, there becomes much less disagreement between they and I because the majority of evangelical “pre-tribbers” also hold to a pre-millennial view. It is a pre-millennial view…
Revelation 20.1-6
Following the return of the King and the defeat of His enemies in battle, namely the beast and the false prophet and their armies, an angel with a great chain binds the dragon, throws him into the abyss and then shuts and locks it over him, so that he will not deceive the nations any longer for a thousand years. Meanwhile, the overcomers are resurrected and serve as priests of…
1 Then he brought me back to the door of the temple, and behold, water was issuing from below the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was flowing down from below the south end of the threshold of the temple, south of the altar. 2 Then he brought me out by way of the north gate and led me around on the outside to the outer gate that faces toward the east;…
Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these
Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these
STATEMENT:
Feed the hungry, clothe the needy, visit the sick, welcome the stranger, help the less fortunate. (Jesus words, Matt 25:35-40.) I’ve always thought it curious that Jesus makes the distinction between the righteous and the unrighteous based on this criteria. Curiously missing is “confessing and believing”, having correct…
A poem on the end of the world. How pleasant. Enjoy!
I’ve written and written, until it’s all been wrote
The end of the world is coming, that’s the content of my notes
Christ is coming at an hour you could never predict
But if you think it could be at any moment, then you’ve been tricked
Let no man deceive you by any and all means
That Day will not come until the man of sin has been seen
He’ll sit in the temple and declare that he’s…
