Introduction
Thank you for visiting this web page, and why not come and see for yourself the precious truths that generally are not preached from the pulpits of most of today's churches. The articles that you are about to explore are totally Bible based, and presented in a way the author understands the complete written text of scripture. There are those of course that will dismiss these articles as inaccurate, and will therefore claim the author is either deceived or totally misinformed about the Bible. You be the judge!! This written material should be handled with care, because the theology that will be introduced to you is generally not believed and accepted by mainstream Christianity. However the author of these articles believes this written material is nevertheless a very basic and down to earth common sense approach in understanding the Word of God. The author many times addresses and attempts to explain certain topics from "God's point of view" (if you know what I mean). The author of this written material does not have an ounce of "hatred" or "prejudice", and is only interested in stimulating truth seekers to have a "Love of the Truth" (2 Thes. 2:10). Explore through these articles at you own risk, because this written information will expose many of the misunderstandings (and deceptions) of the world's modern day churches.
Pamphlets
Many of today's sincere Christian people never consider that they might be misunderstanding the words, Ye must be born again. Learn about this doctrine and the possible meaning of these words spoken by our Savior Jesus Christ.
Many people are observing what is called the Saturday Sabbath. These sincere Christian people simply are not aware of certain biblical facts regarding the Sabbath issue. The pamphlet First Day of the Week will explain the original meaning of this phrase, which in turn will explain the Sabbath issue from the view point of the New Testament.
The doctrine of the "immortal soul" is a very interesting and important doctrine, and by clicking on Are Souls Immortal? you will learn another explanation of this truth than what is commonly taught in many of our churches.
As a rule, the modern churches do not acknowledge that the faith of Abraham founded the New Testament Church. Learn why God imputed righteousness to Abraham, and how righteousness can also be imputed to believers by clicking on The doctrine of Imputations.
It no doubt will surprise many to learn the very obvious answer to this question: Who Are the Modern day Israelites? The truth regarding this subject is stranger than fiction, and will make the Bible become "alive" for truth seekers!
It will surprise many sincere Christians to learn from the Bible that it is possible for the grace of God to fail and become useless for believers. Please click on Law and Grace, to learn the surprising truth which the modern Churches will not explain concerning this very important doctrine.
This evil world is entering into a one world economic and religious system, which according to the Bible, will be headed up and controlled by the Man of Sin.
What is the divine "will" of God? By clicking on What is Predestination? you will learn that God has already decided, and it is his "will" that all of his family come to repentance and be saved. The members of God's family must choose to respond to God's "will", which will prove their desire to be saved. This is simply because God must know the desire of his children, and he will never compel and force his "will" on his children!
The modern Churches generally are not aware of the true meaning of "redemption". This is because most Churches of today believe in what is known as "dispensational theology". The pamphlet, What Is Kinsman Redemption? explains why Jesus Christ was under the law of "kinsman redemption", therefore God could not be on a "dispensational" plan; as most Churches believe and teach.
The subject and doctrine known as the Spirit of God is a very personal doctrine from the Creator God's point of view. Therefore this doctrine cannot be understood by sinful flesh. However the author does show the importance of accepting and acting on correct doctrine in order for the Spirit of God to have an active role in the life of a Christian.
A very solemn event took place during the last meal that Christ eat with his apostles before his death. This event is recognized by the Christian world as The Lord's Supper. Learn how and why this very serious and profound occasion is to be remembered in a symbolic fashion by believers.
Our Savior Jesus Christ said some very interesting statements regarding the Worm that dieth not, and in order to learn what Christ meant by these statements is to learn the Biblical meaning of this certain "worm".
Booklets
The subject of baptism is nothing more than "circumcision made without hands", and is directly related to the Abrahamic covenant which was "confirmed before of God in Christ" (Gal. 3:17). Be sure to click on Abraham's Covenant and Baptism to learn the truth from the Bible what "circumcision" was all about.
The death of Jesus Christ has founded what is called the "Christian Faith". Therefore it is a must for those that confess the Christian faith to learn the surprising truth about this very important event, and what caused Christ's death by clicking on How Did Jesus Christ Die?
The "Church" is an institution that Christ has to build, and there is very much that the modern churches are not teaching regarding the subject of What is the Church?
For those that have always wondered what happened to the ten northern tribes of Israel that were taken captive, be sure to click on Lost Israel and the Gentiles. It may surprise many to know that it is impossible to "lose" this many people in history (as our "learned" historians would have you to believe), and the very obvious answer as to who are the "gentiles" is found in the last pages of this booklet.
By clicking on The Judgments of God you will learn about the unseen creation and world of the angels. The angels of God were very instrumental in speaking the moral laws of God to the children of Israel, and therefore in the future they will serve in determining proper judgment for God's children on "judgment day".
The Kingdom of God booklet addresses what is known as the "millennium", and also addresses Daniel's "70 weeks" prophecy explaining the time schedule of earth-shaking events leading to the second coming of Jesus Christ. The author does not (I repeat) does not believe prophecy regarding the second coming of Jesus Christ has been fulfilled in 70 AD. It is the author's understanding that those who hold to the "preterist" view on prophecy believe that Jesus Christ "returned" in the year 70 AD. This booklet will therefore explain why the "preterist" view is simply a serious misunderstanding of prophecy.
What happens to the spirits and souls of the members of God's family when they die? The doctrine and subject of "heaven and hell" is addressed in Life and Death, and also addresses the very interesting historical event (not a parable) of the "Rich Man and Lazarus".
In our life time we have all heard questions of this nature: "What are we doing on planet earth?", or "What is life all about?", or more important; What is Man? These types of questions are very valid, and therefore deserved to be answered! However these kinds of questions are normally taken for granted, and left for our "learned" theologians to explain.
By clicking on The New Jerusalem you will learn the truth as to why the political news "spotlight" is on the city of Jerusalem almost on a daily basis.
How important is repentance and obedience toward God? This question is answered in Repentance and Obedience, which explains the concept known as the "humility of a little child"; which in turn captures the attention and graces of Our Heavenly Father.
The Seventh Day booklet will explain a very new approach in answering the Sabbath question. This is a very serious subject, because Sabbath keeping under the old covenant represented a failed six day creation that became useless to God because of Adam's sin, therefore called for the sufferings and death of Jesus Christ. I know you Saturday Sabbath keepers are not aware of this truth, or else you would switch overnight to Sunday keeping! The apostle Paul was in very much grief and agony for the Galatian Church because of this heresy and misunderstanding.
A common sense explanation of "Noah's Flood" is explained in The World Before Adam. Most Christian people are not aware of a "disruption" of the pre-historic world before Adam that became "waste" and "void", and was totally submerged in water and in darkness. This was caused by an angelic rebellion that assaulted the very throne and government of Almighty God, which the modern churches do not teach. Many of today's churches would rather believe and teach the ridiculous and impossible theory of a six thousand year old creation!
E-mail discussions
From time to time the author receives various email messages from Christians that more or less want to argue, or have theological questions that they want answered. The author has decided to add some of these email discussions to this web page. These email discussions (and letters) are on various theological subjects, however mostly on the Sabbath. The author is not interested in promoting arguments, and he never intends to "force" doctrine on people. However he will defend his position on certain doctrines as he understands the Bible. The author sincerely believes that understanding the truth of the Bible should be the highest priority in the lives of sincere believers! Please bookmark this page because more email debates will be added as time goes on. Please click on the following links to understand and learn from these very interesting debates and discussions.
