Babylon the Great

  Babylon the Great “And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me (the John class, representing the Lord’s people still in the flesh here at the end of the gospel age, i.e., during its Harvest), saying unto me, Come hither; I will show unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sits upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the…

The Antichrist Revealed, Part 2

DEVELOPMENT OF THE COUNTERFEIT HEAVENS Jesus declared that his “kingdom is not of this world.” (John 18:36) True Christianity was not meant to be a religion, i.e., a sect to be set up as a Kingdom now, but it was simply a gracious opportunity for one to develop as a disciple of Christ—to know the mind of the Lord, to emulate his character and ultimately to reign with him at his second coming. And, thus, the Church was to remain…

“Let no man deceive you by any means; for that day (the Day of the Lord) shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that Man of Sin be revealed, the Son of Perdition; Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God…” “And then will be revealed the Lawless One (that is to…

  The following is a brief study of Isa 29:9-22 however we especially note Verses 9-14 “Pause and wonder! Blind yourselves and be blind! They are drunk, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with intoxicating drink. For the Lord has poured out on you The spirit of deep sleep, And has closed your eyes, namely, the prophets; And He has covered your heads, namely, the seers. The whole vision has become to you like the words of a…

The Lake of Fire, Second Death, Part 3

We now continue with our examination of Heb 6:4-6 to determine to whom it applies. In our last post we took a look at the opening part of Verse 4, viz. “For it is impossible for those who were once enlighten…” Upon investigation we established two facts, one that only those who have been justified by faith, constituted righteous and holy in the sight of God could receive true enlightenment, (knowledge of the truth), and two it appears most certain…

One would suppose that words so full of warning, and of such deep significance, spoken by Jesus to His disciples, for the benefit of those who should be…

Zeal Not According to Knowledge

Zeal Not According to Knowledge

It is not good to have zeal without knowledge, nor to be hasty and miss the way.” Prov 19:2 “Many noble hearted Christians have gone out as missionaries and as aid workers amongst the heathen wholly unprepared for what they have encountered—intelligent individuals with app ability to reason for themselves. Many have found that the heathen were full of questions; logical questions too, which they as Christians had never thought of and which they were wholly unprepared to answer. Comparatively…

  “For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.” Heb 6:4-6 As there seems to be some uncertainty amongst many of…
