When God was angry with a people or nation, He would send a prophet to warn them to repent before He would send judgment upon them. The language of prophesy contained certain elements and structure that repeated no matter which nation or country the prophet was sent to warn. Let's examine some of these elements. …
The End of The World: The Jonah & The Whale Syndrome
I laugh each time I read the account of Jonah and his warning to Nineveh. It is funny when we can look from a safe distance back in time, and are removed from the immediate circumstances. But, Jonah had very real feelings about what God had told him to do, and most of us today …

Daniel and The End Times
The words Gabriel spoke to Daniel recorded in Daniel 9:24-27, 24 `Seventy weeks are determined for thy people, and for thy holy city, to shut up the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover iniquity, and to bring in righteousness age-during, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of …
The Signs of Revelation – Part VIII: The New Heavens and New Earth
God's language of prophesy is a challenge because it is a majestic and grand metaphor, a hugely poetical style. The metaphors and poetry which He used were to provide the sovereign and supreme import, the full vision and implications of what became the actual or literal outcome. The judgment was pronounced from heaven above in …

The Signs of Revelation – Part VII: The Plagues of Egypt
Psa. 46:8, "Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth." (KJV) Looking at Revelation from the Old Testament (OT) is both enlightening and reaffirming. God's word is true and His judgments are righteous (Psa. 19:9; 33:5; 119:137, 160). If sometimes in our study we do not understand why …

The Signs of Revelation – Part VI: The Judgment Day, Chapter 20
The first five parts of this series have discussed in some detail the signs and symbols found within the prophesy of John, the Revelation of Christ. All of the signs and symbols of Revelation are based upon Old Testament (OT) prophesies, and can be determined from the scriptures within the OT. The OT is the …

The Signs of Revelation – Part V: The Animal Symbols of the Battle
We have been decoding some of the signs and symbols of the prophesy of Revelation, so that we can better understand the meanings of the book. The code is from the Old Testament (OT), and we are using scripture to interpret scripture, as only God can interpret His word. (Dan. 2:18-22) Once we recognize the …

Signs of Revelation – Part IV: Symbols of the Throne Scene Chap. 4 – 5
This series on the book of Revelation is defining the prophesy by looking into the source code. The source code for Revelation, and all of the New Testament (NT), is the Old Testament (OT). The NT is the OT revealed! By decoding the component pieces of the prophesy we can better understand and identify the …

The Signs of Revelation – Part III: Codes of the Colors and Numbers
Remembering that the New Testament (NT) is the Old Testament (OT) revealed, we continue the theme from Parts I and II of this series, that we must look to the OT for the signs and original meanings in Revelation. The code of Revelation is the OT. Part II of this series discussed the nature symbols …

The Signs of Revelation – Part II: Codes and Symbols of Nature
Part I of this series established the background and time period of Revelation as the first century A.D., the generation which Christ said would not pass until all was fulfilled. (Matt. 22:36, 24:34) Therefore, the events of Revelation "which must shortly come to pass" and which were "at hand" all occurred in that same century …

The Signs of Revelation – Part I: The Time of His Coming
The book of Revelation is not a chronological account of the second appearance of Christ. Rather, it is thematic; tracing the steps through one vision, before beginning another vision and moving through that to its end. This happens several times to encompass the visions of Christ coronation, then the great tribulation and the battle between …

Did Christ Lie to His Disciples?
We have a perspective problem. Many people think nothing of taking the words that Christ spoke to His disciples in the first century AD out of time and place, and making them applicable to some future event and generation. Matt. 10:23, "... Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son …
God’s Definitions – Part II: The House of God
Under the old covenant established in the exodus wilderness between God and the house of Israel, the Israelites built a tabernacle where the priests could enter under prescribed conditions to meet with God, to offer sacrifices for the sins of the people, and to minister unto God. This tabernacle was built of curtains, animal skins, …

God’s Definitions – Part I: The House of Israel
It is sometimes difficult for people to look at things from God's perspective. We have to imagine ourselves looking down from His point of view to see ourselves as He does. We also have to realign our ideas so that they accord with His definitions. The only way to know what He has said, and …

Is A Woman Commanded to Keep Silent in the Church?
We struggle with many left over concepts that the Protestant Reformation brought along with them out of the Catholic church. Martin Luther's education within the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) still carried the lessons he had been taught from their priests. One of these lessons is the misunderstanding about 1 Cor. 14:26-30: "26How is it then, …

Rethinking The Sabbaths
In a previous post (Passover, Crucifixion, and The Lord's Day...) I had not found any evidence that Constantine had changed the day of worship from Saturday / Sabbath to Sunday; only that he had changed the names of the days according to his pagan beliefs. Later, while comparing the scriptures from the KJV to Young's …
Do You Need To Be Baptized To Be Saved?
Gen. 15:6, speaking of Abram, " And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for righteousness." Some people read the statements from the Old Testament about Abram's belief in God being reckoned unto him for righteousness, and use it as an example for us today. However, they are failing to consider …
Giants: Rephaim, Zamzummim, Emim, Anakim, Nephilim, Zuzim
Let's take a closer look at the giants of old. We are going to use Young's Literal Translation for most of the references, as the generic translation of the King James loses some of the connotations regarding these giants. Young's Literal Translation is choppy because it is a direct word-for-word translation of the Hebrew and …

The Valley of Dry Bones, a Picture for the Children of God
"37 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, 2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they …

The Book of Enoch – Fable or True
There are many bits and pieces, many supposed parts and chapters that comprise the Book of Enoch that is passing around today. The most used appear to be based upon the translations of the Ethiopic Book of Enoch found at the S.O.A.S. (School of Oriental and African Studies) Library at the University of London, printed …
The God of This Age, and The Prince of The Power of The Air
2 Cor. 4:1-4, "1Because of this, having this ministration, according as we did receive kindness, we do not faint, 2 but did renounce for ourselves the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor deceitfully using the word of God, but by the manifestation of the truth recommending ourselves unto every conscience of men, before …

Micah’s Prophesy – No More War?
The Western mindset tends to very literal interpretation of the Bible, believing the words of the prophets to be descriptive of physical reality. But, the Bible was written in the Eastern metaphorical, poetical style where physical things we can see represent spiritual things we cannot see. For instance, according to Clarke's commentary, Micah 2:6 literally …
The Zionist Lie of “These Last Days”, or “How Is It That You Do Not Discern This Time?”
Luke 12:56, "Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?" Jesus spoke these words approx. 30 -33 A.D, and were recorded by Luke approx. 60 - 62 A.D. 2 Tim. 3:1, "This know also, that in the last …
The Burning of Jerusalem, and the Hadean Death
Christ tells the chief priests and elders of the temple a parable in Matt. 22:1-14: "1And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, 2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, 3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden …

The Thousand Year Reign of Revelation 20 – Is It Yet Future?
The numbers found in the Bible have both literal and symbolic meanings. The context, or the subject matter of the scripture tells us when the numbers recorded in the scripture are literal, and when they are figurative, or symbolic. For instance, the following scriptures all have a literal numeric value: Ex. 38:25, "And the silver …

THERE ARE NO END TIMES! The Latter Days Are Not Our Days!
Gen. 49:1, "And Jacob calleth unto his sons and saith, `Be gathered together, and I declare to you that which doth happen with you in the latter end of the days." (Young's Literal Translation, [YLT]) or Gen. 49:1, " And Jacob called his sons and said, “Gather together, that I may tell you what shall …

The One True GOD – But, there are two of them! Allah or Yahweh?
Christians follow the scriptures of the Bible as given by Yahweh, the Great I Am, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (renamed Israel), and of His uniquely begotten son, the Christ, the promised seed of Abraham, the Messiah (Jesus). Muslims believe in Allah, who they claim is the one true God of the prophet …

Seventy Weeks of Daniel Chap. 9
"24Seventy weeks are determined for thy people, and for thy holy city, to shut up the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover iniquity, and to bring in righteousness age-during, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of holies. 25 And thou dost know, and dost consider wisely, from …
The Beast of Revelation
There exists so much evidence of the first century prophecy of Revelation that it is hard to keep narratives brief, and I am unable to make this a short post. I ask that you bear with me, as I have had a difficult time limiting the information. The previous post, The Whore of Babylon, presented …
The Whore of Babylon
The book of Revelation is difficult to understand, and is much twisted and misused in our day, as many Christians today are not well studied in the secular histories of either Israel or Rome, and without that knowledge it can be very hard to grasp all of the clues. But, there are internal evidences in …
Heaven & Earth Have Passed Away
Many Christians are disadvantaged in that we are not well grounded in the Old Testament scriptures. We have been taught for so many generations that as we are now under the new covenant of Christ, that the old covenant is then no longer relevant. This leads many to assume that there is no need to …
When Jesus Called Peter “Satan”!
Some readers may believe I have been harsh or hateful in recent posts referring to the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) as being of Satan. But, this is exactly what our Lord and Savior did when He called Peter "Satan". In the post "Liars & Murderers ... God Says They Are The Same" (see the post …
Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part VI; The Blasphemy Against the Holy Spirit
The Roman Catholic Church is teaching its members that they wrote the Bible. This is a lie against the Holy Spirit! This teaching contradicts the Scriptures. I am sure it amazes Moses, David, Solomon, and the other writers of the Hebrew Old Testament books which existed long before the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) was …

Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part 5; The Blasphemy of the Priesthood
The wickedness and evil of the concepts of priests and an earthly priesthood are so abominable that my soul cringes to even discuss these creations of the Roman Catholic Church. The priests of the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) are conceptions of ungodly men, who determined that Christ was not enough, that His sacrifice was not …

Passover, the Crucifixion, & the Lord’s Day; or Did Constantine Change the Day of Worship?
There is some confusion regarding the day that Jesus was crucified during the Passover week, and the actual day He was resurrected. The confusion is a matter of a language barrier between English perception and the Greek of the New Testament which was customarily understood in the first century A.D. We need to study very …
Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part IV; Augustine’s Lie of Original Sin, and the Practice of Infant Baptism
What a web the Roman Catholic Church has weaved! Each error of the Roman Catholic Church builds upon the previous error, promoting even more error to try to solve a problem the previous error created. The concept of original sin is one of the most heinous invented by the Roman Catholics, because of the further …
Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part III; Baptism is NOT Sprinking
Once upon a time everyone knew that immersion in water was required to be added to the body of Christ, to be saved! Even the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) knew it! Jesus himself gave us the example when He went to his second cousin, John the "Baptist", son of Zacharias, to be "baptized". (Matt. 3: …

Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part II; Peter is Not THE Rock of the church
In Part I of this series we examined the Catholic lie that Peter and Paul founded the church at Rome. This next lie, that Peter is the rock upon which the church is built, is based upon the views of individual men, bishops and priests, and their writings within the Catholic Church; which the Catholic …

Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part I; The Pope Has No Apostolic Authority
Once upon a time, in the first century A.D., there were Christians who assembled to worship the Lord in a pagan and idolatrous place called Rome. The congregations of these early Christians were trying to follow what they had been taught by others who knew of Christ, and appear to have been meeting in the …

Nephilim… Reprise: And The Sons of God
Some people took exception to my previous post, “Nephilim.. Fallen Ones?”, and are still struggling with the uses of the Hebrew word that has been transliterated in some Bible versions in Genesis 6:4. So, let’s take a second look at the subject matter in a slightly different way. Both men and angels are created by …
Nephilim… Fallen Ones ?
Gen. 6: 1-7, "And it cometh to pass that mankind have begun to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters have been born to them, 2 and sons of God see the daughters of men that they [are] fair, and they take to themselves women of all whom they have chosen. 3 And Jehovah saith, …
Behold, I Thought…..
Seems there are a lot of different beliefs about what God’s word says. Some people say, I believe this, others believe that. They don’t back it up with scripture. They can’t cite a scripture to support what they believe. They just believe something because they want to believe it. Their belief seems right to their …
It’s Not The End of The World – Part X; And Then Shall The End Come
This series of studies has analyzed God’s word to see what the scriptures really say about our Lord and Savior‘s “second” coming. We have examined evidences within the scriptures that clearly refer to “these last days” and then have identified certain events that happened in “these last days” as events which occurred during the first …

It’s Not The End of The World – Part IX; The First Century Preppers
We have been examining the scriptures to see what God truly said about the time of the coming of the Lord.

Liars & Murderers – God Says They Are The Same!
I am astounded daily by all the lies that surround us. So many people have been convinced that lying is acceptable for one reason or another. The Jews and the Jesuits, and the Islams and Muslims believe that they are allowed or even commanded to lie to the "infidels". Police and others in authority have …

It’s Not The End of The World – Part VII; The Land Promises & Other Questions
We have seen from parts I -VI of this study that the coming of the Lord was always used in scripture as a day of judgment; that the day of judgment spoken of in the New Testament was that coming upon Israel, Rome, and the surrounding nations culminating with the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. …

We have been examining the internal evidences for the time of the second appearance of the Lord, and have found that, if viewed in their context, the scriptures clearly show that Jesus was manifested and was sacrificed in "these last days", during the first century A.D. As an application of basic algebra shows that if …

Deceit and lies fill the earth, and many people are swayed by every moving wind to believe some very preposterous theories regarding the book of Revelation and the "end of the world". There is a political agenda deliberately promoting fear that is associated with these lies, which needs to be confronted and destroyed. …
It’s Not The End of The World – Part III; Judgment Language in the Old Testament
The Old Testament is our school master, bringing us to an understanding of God’s Law, His expectations, His standards, and His methods, and His nature. God even has a language of figurative metaphors which He uses in prophesy and judgment. The books of Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel are rife with God’s judgment language. Every time …

There is such fear expressed all over the internet about the return of the Lord, the Apocalypse, the End Times, and great predictions of dates for September or October 2015, or 2016. This fear is not found in scripture. The fear is generated by men who are twisting God's word to mean something it does …
