    AntiChristian Christian radio?

    This evening, while at work, I was listening to one of the local almost Christian radio stations (We don’t actually have any all Christian stations in the NYC metro area that I’m aware of, just unreasonable facsimiles.) In between the half hour infomercials, the con artists, money lenders, snake...

    Sign of the times

    5 O house of Jacob, come and let us walk In the light of the LORD. 6 For You have forsaken Your people, the house of Jacob, Because they are filled with eastern ways; They are soothsayers like the Philistines, And they are pleased with the children of...

    7 messages for our time, 7 indictments against our nation and world

    about 10 years ago, I was moved by the Lord to write some lengthy gospel tracts which I sent out to a relatively small mailing list. Each message addressed an issue critical to our time, our nation, and the professing church. Before proceeding very far in the writing I realized that these...

    Seeing Jesus Christ: Part 6: The restoration of all things

    We know from the gospel accounts that Jesus performed many miraculous signs and wonders. Luke tells us in his gospel of a few special signs and unique things which we could consider, but most of the miraculous works that Jesus performed fell into just a few categories which Jesus Himself...

    Seeing Jesus Christ: Part 5: temptation, the world and the word

    The gospels according to Matthew, Mark, and Luke all tell us that, after His baptism, Jesus was led out into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit to be tempted by the devil. The gospel of John mentions the baptism of Jesus in the testimony of John the Baptist, as something which was already...

    Seeing Jesus Christ: Part 4: rising to New life

    All four of the gospels found in the Bible, tell us that Jesus began His public ministry after He was baptized. I’m not sure that you’ll find much in the Old Testament scripture that points to Jesus’ baptism, but there are certainly passages which help us to understand the meaning and purpose of...

    Seeing Jesus Christ: Part 3: "The Name"

    The Hebrew name translated in the scripture as “Joshua” or a close variant of the same, occurs about 215 times in the Old Testament Scriptures, over 200 of these occurrences are in reference to the same person, Joshua, the son of Nun, the servant of Moses: And it came to pass, when Moses...

    Seeing Jesus Christ: Part 2: a branch of righteousness

    But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit."And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name...

    Seeing Jesus Christ: Part I : the atonement

    Two of the three synoptic gospels start with geneologies of Jesus Christ, the gospel according to Matthew and the gospel according to Luke. Matthew's geneology goes back to Abraham while Luke's geneology goes back to Adam. We understand that Matthew started his geneology from Abraham, because...

    Seeing Jesus Christ: Introduction

    "God who at various times and in various ways spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom He also made the worlds: who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His...

    Abomination of Desolation

    I've heard a good amount of preaching on the topic of the abomination of desolation, mentioned by our Savior in the gospels, and from the book of Daniel, and all the doctrine has revolved around a rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem. I'm not sure that this is at all necessary in the time line...

    What the Word says about the Rapture

    When I was a newborn in Christ, I really loved the idea of being raptured away by God prior to the events of the Great tribulation, but over the years, the Teacher has been showing me verses which led me to doubt the doctrine as it was taught to me. 1st Thessalonians definitely foretells the...
