The shifting of the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday is quite an interesting tale to hear, especially from those that instituted the change. It’s almost a chicken or the egg scenario. Most Seventh day Sabbath keepers say Sunday worship is wrong because it was instituted by men (within the Catholic Church). The Catholic Church, on the other hand, say we changed the Sabbath, without scriptural…

How to Be Forgiven of Sin… tomorrowsworld.org
Ryan Welsh
4 years ago in Repentance
This video begins by showing sin is the source of this world’s unhappiness. The burdens (anxiety, regret, guilt, pain, and suffering) that we each carry due to sin, can become overwhelming but there is a solution. To remove this load requires us to come to terms with the cause…our sin. Like a mirror, God’s law reveals to us our sins. We must look into that mirror. Only after this humble…

This deep dive, Bible Study approach covers in detail the nature of the Holy Spirit. Eight points make clear that the Holy Spirit is the power of God and not a personage. The Spirit is given to those that are called by God and respond to that calling. Baptism and repentance are essential in receiving the Holy Spirit. It works with our minds that we…
Is God a Trinity? – Peter Nathan, Jeannette B. Anderson vision.org

4 years ago in Trinity
The doctrine of the Trinity – where did this “extrabiblical dogma” come from? For those that ask “why,” the doctrine of the Trinity is difficult to unravel. As we look back, around a century after the time of Emperor Constantine and the council of Nicaea (325 C.E.), there was still little consensus of God’s nature by “Church leaders” and brief mention of the Holy Spirit….
What Is the Grace of God? – Florante Siopan, John Foster lifehopeandtruth.com

4 years ago in Grace
Grace is not just something given by God but is a part of His very character. God is a gracious God, referenced throughout scripture. This is fortunate because all mankind has sinned, and the wages of sin is death. Death is the byproduct of sin which brings us to Christ’s sacrifice. In order to be gracious or show favor to us, Jesus, living a sinless…
Who Is the Antichrist? tomorrowsworld.org

4 years ago in Second Coming
One of the most ominous figures the Bible reveals to us is the end time Antichrist. The spirit of this individual has been in the world and deceiving since the first century in the form of all false prophets. We know them as teachers that profess to represent Christ, using Christ’s name, yet teaching a different Jesus or gospel or teaching lawlessness. All of these…

I really liked the short, to the point approach this article took regarding the biblical stance on Christmas. It begins with the pagan origins of Christmas that are documented and well-established. Most mainstream Christians don’t even argue that fact. With the origins well established we move to the second point. Within Jeremiah it’s stated that we are not to worship God the way gentiles worship…

Modern social values no longer tie sex to marriage. The idea that extra-marital sex is wrong is strange to many. Although there are many scriptures on the subject this question and answer piece singles out Hebrews 13:4. Hebrews 13:4 states that sex was designed to strengthen the committed bond of marriage, yet it has the opposite affect outside of it. The results of sex outside…
The God Who Is – Jeremy Lallier sabbaththoughts.com

4 years ago in God
Is there a god and if so, who is God? A question for the ages of which few find the answer. The Bible writes of one man that struggled with this question but had the unique opportunity to ask God in person. Moses, being raised in Egypt, grew up well aware of “gods”, so when he asked God directly “who do I say, to the…
The Purpose of the Church thefatherscall.org

4 years ago in God Family, The Church
Like the buildup in a great movie this article lays out the course of human existence. Man was created not just for a great purpose but to be an integral part of the process. That great and simple purpose, as typified by the nuclear family, was the creation of an eternal spiritual family. However Satan, the influential force within this world, has positioned himself as…
“You Will Not Surely Die!” – Jim Franks lifehopeandtruth.com

At some point we all face and wonder what happens after death. Most accept without question that what they are taught comes from scripture. That is “we are an immortal soul that at death lives on eternally in heaven or in hell.” What most don’t realize is this belief predates the first coming of Jesus, having its origins in paganism. It can arguably be traced…

Morality seems to be as unattainable as truth these days. This article sets out to explain why that is and the ultimate reason for it. The example set forth in this article was specific to the time in which it was written but the conclusions are the same for whatever time you find yourself. I think the author stated it best when he concluded: “Until…

4 years ago in Holy Days, Passover, Easter
This is one of those subjects that becomes clearer with a visual aid. There is a lot of confusion around Good Friday, Easter, and Jesus being dead 3 days and 3 nights. As one will see in this 7 min video, the only sign given that Jesus is the Christ did happen as described without the verbal gymnastics required to make the pagan traditions work….
This Body of Death – Ted E. Bowling cgg.org

Within our calling is a lifelong examination and discovery of the sin that permeates our very being. What’s revealed to us is a sinful nature that’s likened to that of a dead and rotting body as possibly alluded to by the apostle Paul.
