    Heavenly and Earthly

    Note to reader: I realize that there is not much shown or taught in the Bible concerning Israel's eschatology within the dispensational view, but I believe this view of what the Bible teachers, from whom I share these articles, believe concerning the saving of those Jews who believe in God but...

    Doctrine Unaware

    I believe one of the most important teachings of Scripture is the truth that Christians have no covenant with God, but are recipients of a covenant between the Father and the Son, which is the “Covenant of Redemption”; and its primary theme is Hebrews 13:20: “Now the God of peace, that brought...

    Reformed Restriction

    The entire system known as Judaism, along with all its component parts, is, in the purpose of God, in total abeyance (suspension) throughout this present dispensation, but with definite assurance that the whole Jewish system thus interrupted will be completed by extension into the millennial...

    Omniscient Planner

    Not to challenge your opinion, but God couldn't wish them not to sin when He knew they would (unless you mean something else). Moses wrote that all was good, and I'm not sure that means perfection, because Adam and Eve had the sin of pride before sinning: Eve saw that the tree was "to be desired...

    Omniscient Planner

    It’s not like when Adam and Eve sinned God had to go to a plan B. Was it not part of His plan? Isn’t He omniscient and knew what they would do? How would they have ever known what good and evil is apart from experiencing the sin? It’s my belief that He wanted us to be like Him in knowing what...

    Heart to Heart

    It is continually encouraging to know (esp. the more we see the “old man” at work in us) that God knows our most important desire is to “please” Him, because there are often times when this can be difficult to express, but yet ever remains true to those reborn (Phl 2:13). It’s when we are...

    Prayerful Dependence

    While Martha was cumbered about much serving (Luk 10:40), and her love, most true in its way, went forth in actively providing for the Lord’s outward need, Mary unconsciously perhaps, proved her stronger faith and deeper love by sitting at His feet and drinking in His words. The thought of...

    Points to Ponder

    In a dispensation where God’s mind is completely revealed we often find there is much fervor lacking in the knowledge and joy of the Lord Jesus (2Pe 2:20), and spiritual fondness of it all is at low ebb! But there will always be those believers whom God uses to increase the interest and...

    "The Righteousness of the Law" (part 1)

    The Law directs to righteousness (Gal 3:24) but does not reveal it and does not work righteousness (Gal 3:10, 11). The only righteousness via the Law was from Christ, and only He could fulfill the Law, it requiring sinlessness! Only Christ could be justified by the Law, but man could not (v 11)...

    "The Righteousness of the Law" (part 1)

    Righteousness could not come from man by the Law, for it's purpose was only to show how righteousness comes only from Christ, who kept it perfectly with a holy and sinless nature. If we did not still possess the old man, we would have our own righteousness, but God wanted us to first have His...

    "The Righteousness of the Law" (part 2)

    But take the born again Christian—not when he is yielding to the old man (which all occasionally do—NC); take him where, in truth alone, so to speak, we can rightly think of a believer as such—in the exercise of his faith, in the manifestation of the new life which the grace of God has given...

    "The Righteousness of the Law" (part 1)

    Concerning man, the purpose of the Law was two-fold: manifest guilt (Rom 3:20, 21; Gal 3:10) and direct one to the sin solution (Gal 5:24, 25)! -NC Romans 8:4: “That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us.” By the righteousness of the law, is not meant the righteousness of...

    Open Wide!

    To us heaven is open, and faith can say, “We see Jesus” (Heb 2:9). Of old God dwelt in the midst of His people in the sanctuary, but the veil was there, and there was no way of approaching Him. Now, the veil is rent; heaven—not the sanctuary on earth—is open. The way into the Holiest of All is...

    “This Old Man”

    It's ok to dread if your certain you're always secure in God! One can also avoid dreading, as He wants us as much as possible in peace--even through the trials! Always appreciate your replies Brother.

    “This Old Man”

    There are times when the believer feels something is wrong; and it seems often related to possibly doing something wrong, but we can’t immediately identify the wrongdoing. Well, something is wrong, and it’s always the same thing which is wrong—it’s just the “old man” again (Eph 4:22; Col...

    “By Jesus Christ”

    A girl at a certain college was much admired both for her personal appearance and her artistic abilities. She had very beautiful auburn hair, and seemed to be able to do anything on canvas with her paints and brushes. Her college mates asked her the secret of her lovely hair. She mentioned how...

    “The Lost”

    In Scripture the term “lost” when pertaining to people is always used for those who will be saved (Mat 10:6; 15:24; Mat 18:11; Luk 19:10). Thus those who will never be saved are not the lost but just unbelievers, because their names aren’t in the “Book of Life,” as God knows they will never...

    “The Knowledge of Sin”

    When one sins, he either meant to do it or he didn't mean to do it. When I sin it's never planned or intended. One can sin out of impulse, i.e. do or say something that was wrong but was not what you meant to do or say. Paul said that it was now his old self that sinned, and not his new self...
