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…

The Lake of Fire, Second Death, Part 2

The Lake of Fire, Second Death, Part 2

  “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…

The Lake of Fire, Second Death

The Lake of Fire, Second Death

Before we begin our lesson we need to clear up just what precisely the “Lake of Fire” typifies as many are under the erroneous impression that the Lake of Fire is an actual place, i.e. Hell, however casting aside the foolish teachings of the blind guides and turning to the one true source of all revelation, God’s Word we get the true picture. Note closely Rev 20:14, “Then (that is, at the end of Millennial age, following the final judgment…

The Sheep and the Goats, Part 1

The Sheep and the Goats, Part 1

“Having given His disciples many parables illustrating the experiences of the Church, the Kingdom class, in their development and preparation for Kingdom honor, it was eminently proper that Jesus should give the parable of “The Sheep and the Goats” a lesson to illustrate the work of the Kingdom AFTER its establishment—to show its purpose, and its effect upon the world of mankind.” “In line with this, our Lord in this parable tells what is to befall after His Kingdom shall…

The Sheep and the Goats, Part 3

The Sheep and the Goats, Part 3

  The gradual work of separating sheep and goats will require all of the Millennial Age for its accomplishment. During that age, each individual as he comes gradually to a knowledge of God and his will, by conforming or not conforming thereto, takes his place at the right hand of favor, or the left hand of disfavor accordingly as he either improves or fails to improve the opportunities of that golden age. By the end of that age, all the…

The Sheep and the Goats, Part 2

APPLICATION OF THIS PARABLE Next follows a description of the work of the Millennial Age. “Before Him shall be gathered all nations” This means all the people of the world outside of the Lord’s holy nation, His peculiar people, the Church. Everybody except the Church will be before His great white Throne of Justice, Mercy and Love; that will be their judgment time. Six thousand years ago, Adam and his entire race were judged in Eden, and the sentence was…

Two Sorts of Sins

Two Sorts of Sins

“If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin which does not lead to death, he will ask (pray for them), and he will give him life for those who commit sin NOT leading to death. There is a sin leading to death: I do not say that he shall pray about that. All unrighteousness is sin: and there is sin not leading to death.” 1 John 5:16, 17 The Apostle here clearly teaches that there are TWO SORTS OF SINS:…

Sowing and Reaping

Sowing and Reaping

“The fact that retribution–the reward or the penalty for certain actions or conduct performed in this life are often delayed is frequently presumed upon by the foolish, who vainly think that they can sow their crop of wild oats and never realize their harvest. Both individuals and nations have long presumed to act upon this hazardous and vain hypothesis.” The operations of this law are most manifest upon classes and nations–first, because their prominence gives them world-wide publicity; and, second,…

The Day of Judgement

The Day of Judgement

“GOD hath appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained” –“Jesus Christ, the righteous.” “For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son.” Acts 17:31; 1 John 2:1; John 5:22 A very vague and indefinite idea prevails in regard to the day of judgment. The view generally entertained is that Christ will come to earth, seated upon a great white throne, and that he…

The Unpardonable Sin

The Unpardonable Sin

“Whosoever speaks a word against the Son of Man it shall be  forgiven him; but whosoever speaks against the Holy Spirit it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world (age) to come.” (Matt 12:32) This text teaches first that there is such a thing as forgiveness of sins both in the present Gospel age and in the coming, millennial age. The basis of all forgiveness of sins is in the fact that “Christ died…
