Jesus spoke often about God’s kingdom. He described it as coming in stages, ending with a future time when the earth will be restored and all those who died will be resurrected to learn how to live righteously. Revelation gives us a very clear and comforting description, full of hope, describing what the kingdom […]
The Lord God, Yahweh, our creator, long ago purposed a family of beings to be taken from among mankind. These saints would be tested, proven, faithful, and ultimately be rewarded with His own divine nature, immortality. This family of immortal beings would be His agents in restoring mankind and the earth to perfection. And in […]
Sin is lawlessness, disobeying God’s righteous, the just law of love. Jesus summarized God’s law in Luke 10:27 (NIV), “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” The Apostle Paul explained God’s law with […]
You should certainly ask the Lord why you feel empty, but the idea that God has forsaken you is a lie planted in your heart. All of God’s promises are true. God has promised, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5. God “cannot lie”, Titus 1:2. Many believe they are His because […]

All Christians will see hell but they will be resurrected! How does the Bible define hell? In the Old Testament, the word for “hell” is the Hebrew word “Sheol” (Strongs #7585). It is the condition of death. Every single person dies and goes to the same place – “Sheol”. Ecclesiastes 9:10 explains what Sheol is […]
Matthew 5:8, “Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God." To paraphrase: Blessed are those whose heart motives are pure, clean, and holy. It is our sincerity of intention and will that is required. This does not mean Christians are perfect in their motives. Our hearts, minds, and consciences have been sickened by […]
Revelation 20:7-10 (RSV), “And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be loosed from his prison and will come out to deceive the nations which are at the four corners of the earth, that is, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea. And they […]
Zechariah 14:3-5 (ESV), “Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations as when he fights on a day of battle. 4 On that day his feet shall stand on the Mount of Olives that lies before Jerusalem on the east, and the Mount of Olives shall be split in two from east […]
