A CITY OF REFUGE TO FLEE TO FOR COMPLETE SAFETY IN THESE PERILOUS TIMES

October 4, 2020
FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

A CITY OF REFUGE TO FLEE TO FOR COMPLETE SAFETY IN THESE PERILOUS TIMES

The inheritance of the tribe of Levi in Caanan were forty-eight cities and its suburbs. Six of these cities were divinely set apart as ‘Cities of Refuge.’

If you believe you are part of the people described in the last days as “a chosen generation, a royal PRIESTHOOD, an holy nation, a peculiar people”(1 Pet. 2:9), then you must know why these 6 cities were so dedicated, their purpose, and most specially, what they signified and its fullest application for these last days.

HATRED, NOT LOVE FOR SIN IS CENTRAL TO THE PLAN OF SALVATION

September 4, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

HATRED, NOT LOVE FOR SIN IS CENTRAL TO THE PLAN OF SALVATION

“But unto the Son He saith, Thy throne of God is forever and ever: a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Thy kingdom. Thou has loved righteousness and hated iniquity; therefore Thy God, even Thy God, hath anointed Thee with the oil of gladness above Thy fellows.”

Heb. 1: 8,9, Authorized Version.

God the Father addresses His only-begotten Son as GOD! And the Son like the Father, as in like father like son, LOVES righteousness and HATES iniquity (sin, the transgression of the law).

“Because of their SIN, God had to exclude Adam and Eve from the home He had prepared for them. It must have been with great sorrow of heart that the two left the place where they had first met, which held such blessed memories for them.”

DON’T REPEAT THE HISTORY OF THE CHOSEN PEOPLE!

March 11, 2020

MID-WEEK MESSAGE FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

DON’T REPEAT THE HISTORY OF THE CHOSEN PEOPLE!

See Acts 17: 11 and be a Berean.  “In this our day as in Christ’s day, there will be a misreading and misinterpreting of the Scriptures. If the Jews had studied the Scriptures with earnest, prayerful hearts, their searching would have been rewarded with a true knowledge of the time, and not only the time, but also the manner of Christ’s FIRST appearing. . . .

They had the testimony of Daniel: they had the testimony of Isaiah and other prophets; they had the teaching of Moses; and here was Christ Himself in their midst, and STILL were searching the Scriptures for evidence in regard to His coming!  MANY are doing the same thing today because they have not experienced the TESTING message comprehended in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd angels’ messages.

The Divine Method of Prophetic Revelation

FRIDAY MORNING MANNA

 Biblical Numerology: NUMBER SEVEN – Part 6

‘The Divine Method of Prophetic Revelation’

 

This is an unabashed personal appeal urging the reader to review—and if you haven’t already done so—to read/study Daniel and the Revelation by Uriah Smith. I am currently reviewing it again with my KJV Bible and the references from the inspired pen.

Many students of Biblical prophecy, Daniel and Revelation In particular, have concluded that it is one, if not the definitive book on the two interconnected major prophetic books of the Bible.  The Bible scholar, prolific writer and editor, Uriah Smith, lived and wrote this book over a century ago and his understanding and interpretations have stood the test of time. As introduction to reviewing the seven churches, seven seals, seven trumpets, seven last plagues, and other vital sevens in the Revelation, we first quote his words appearing as the title head of this column, pp. 339-344:
