Satan is the Destroyer but Christ is the Restorer

The purpose of prophecy is to prepare the bride for her Bridegroom. It reveals to us where Christ is at each step of His ministry and what He is currently doing to cleanse and purify His bride for the day when He comes to take her home. Itʼs the greatest love story ever told.

The Purpose of Prophecy

Daniel and Revelation reveal as no other the great controversy between Christ and antichrist, the battle between two kingdoms, and the principles by which they govern. No where else in the Bible does God as thoroughly reiterate the identification of two critical time periods than in Daniel and Revelation....

Understanding Daniel and Revelation

We will find, by examining the following Bible verses, examples of the biblical principle that effect follows cause, whether that effect is a direct outworking of natural laws, or follows the respectful concession of a God whose right to mercifully intervene has been rejected in favor of the intervention of another.

Reaping and Sowing, Daniel 1

What's was God's purpose in revealing through prophecy the rise and fall of earthly kingdoms? Are God's kingdom principles the same?

The Rise and Fall of Earthly Kingdoms, Daniel 2

As for thee, O king, thy thoughts came into thy mind upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth secrets maketh known to thee what shall come to pass.

Interpreting Nebuchadnezzar's Dream, Daniel 2

This is the core issue of the great controversy. Whose principles will be found to be everlasting and able to sustain life, the principles of selfless love and liberty or self-exaltation and force? In other words, "Will the real God please stand up."

Self, the Greatest Battle Ever Fought, Daniel 3

In this study we are going to closely examine the parallels between Nebuchadnezzarʼs image on the plains of Dura and the final decree enforcing worship, as revealed in Revelation. What does this have to do with us, our present lives and our eternal destiny?

The Mystery of Iniquity- Self Worship, Daniel 3

The Final Showdown, Daniel 3

In his converted state, Nebuchadnezzar, the author of Daniel chapter four, reflects back on the events that led to a most humbling experience when he found himself out in a pasture grazing with the animals ...

The Humbling of the High and Mighty, Daniel 4

Prophecy reveals the play/counterplay in the great controversy between Christ and antichrist. Daniel and Revelation reveal as no other, the principles of the two kingdoms. It assures us of the victorious end. The things that were foretold and have come to pass assure us that the things that are yet unfolding will also come to pass.

The Prophetic Flow of History, Daniel 7

Our purpose in this study is to focus on the character development that all must possess when Christ finishes His work interceding for us in the heavenly sanctuary. The controversy started in heaven with pride which led to self-trust, which is a lack of trust in God. In Eden we find Satan successfully used the same subtle temptations with Eve.

The Daily & The Abomination of Desolation

Do you believe in righteousness? Do you want to be righteous? Hosea teaches righteousness comes only by faith. Faith in what? We are going to explore Hosea in search of a faith that saves.

Hosea's Passionate Lover

As God designed it, marriage sets in motion depths of motivation that surge in waves of joy. Each wants to please the other. Each feels an enthusiasm to do and to be what fulfills the other. If such surrendered devotion does not exist, the parties to marriage weary of acting the part, of trying to do what love would do apart from the motivating power of a genuine love.

The Gospel According to the Laws of Marriage

Can the Bible be trusted? Does the Bible contradict itself? Is every word of the Bible inspired? Is there a difference between the God of the Old Testament and the God of the New? Will there be any new light? How can we know the truth? Are there principles of interpretation whereby we might rightly divide the Word of Truth?

The Bible Must Be Allowed To Interpret Itself

The essence of this study reveals the key issue at the heart of the conflict between God and Satan. Which can be trusted? Which is telling the truth? Which one truly loves us? . . . Letʼs read of Adam and Eveʼs disobedience and how it came about. The story begins with Godʼs warning about the subtlety of the serpent, a subtlety commending more than just a superficial reading.

In The Beginning

Who done it — Egypt’s Gods or Israel’s God? Who killed the firstborn of Egypt? How did the plagues come about? Who hardened Pharaohʼs heart? Who was the “destroyer?” On closer examination we will discover that things are not always as they appear.

Will The Real God Please Stand Up!

What Is It — Imposed Punishment or the Inevitable Consequence of Sin?

God's Wrath.

Some people believe that Christ went to hell after He died. This would be true in the sense that hell is sometimes properly interpreted as the grave both in Hebrew and Greek, and Christ went to that grave. But hell has another biblically proper interpretation by which Christ went to hell before He died. In fact, when He gave up His spirit and died, it was a sweet release from the torment of that living hell.

Hell At The Cross

In this study we begin by observing several manners of speech related to the flood which similarly, if taken at face value, leave the reader at best puzzled at God, and at worst leads them to reject Him as a loveless tyrant. We sympathize with those who look at the simple language and have difficulty concluding that it does not entirely mean what it says.

The Two Witnesses of Revelation 11

In Revelation 11 we find the mysterious two witnesses. As we shall see, they are not as mysterious as one would think. For the purpose of identifying these two witnesses from the Scriptures, let us consider some of their characteristics as found in the following verses.

They are prophets. (verse 10)

They prophesy in sackcloth. [obscurity] (verse 3)

They prophesy for 1,260 days. (verse 3)

They are the two olive trees and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. (verse 4)

They destroy their enemies with fire from their mouths. (verse 5)

They have power to prevent it from raining and to turn water to blood. (verse 6)

The beast out of the bottomless pit makes war against them and kills them at the end of their prophesying 1,260 years. (verse 7)

They are resurrected after 3 ½ days. (verse 11, 12)

The Final Abomination of Desolation of Matthew 24

 

The final abomination of desolation is when the state power gives power, seat and authority to the universal church , and will enforce laws that violate liberty of conscience just as what we find in Daniel chapter three with the enforcement of worship.

The Second Abomination of Desolation of Matthew 24

Christ’s warning to His disciples of the abomination of desolation found in the gospels was three-fold in its meaning. The first would be the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. by the Roman army, the second was the self exalting, persecuting power of the papacy during the 1260 years of the predicted reign of the antichrist, and the last abomination will be when the papacy again exalts itself and persecutes the saints bringing the final destruction of the world at the end.

The First Abomination of Desolation of Matthew 24

In Christ’s description of events to take place before His return, He spoke of the abomination that would occur with the admonition that all read and understand it for themselves.

Matthew 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

In The Beginning

The essence of this study reveals what is at the heart of the conflict between God and Satan. Which one can truly be trusted?  Which one is telling the truth? Which one truly loves us? Which one is the real God, the Creator God or the one who claims to be god of this world? Which one if obeyed, will produce eternal life?

Genesis 2:15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. 16) And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: 17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

The Wrath of God, What Is It?

Have you ever had someone tell you, “To hell with God! I did not ask to be born! I am nothing but a puppet and if I don’t do what He says, He’s going to burn me! What’s with that? You can have Him!” Or, have you ever had someone tell you, “I want nothing to do with your damning God!” Have you ever had someone tell you “I tried to be like Jesus, but I couldn’t? I like the God of the Old Testament.”

Sadly, I have. What is the truth about the God who is considered to be the epitome of love? Would you drown, burn or bury alive your child if he rejected your love? Would that be considered love among humans?  Would that be considered mercy? Would that be considered justice? Why no. You would likely spend the rest of your life in prison and rightly so. Yet some would reasonably argue that, though we humans cannot understand the God of love, His justice is no less love than His mercy? We would agree. But to see God’s love in His “wrath” as more than a theoretical acknowledgment is the purpose of this study. If we are to escape the wrath of God we must know Him as He truly is.

The Purpose of Prophecy

Prophecy: A Covenant of Love

The purpose of prophecy is to prepare the bride for her Bridegroom. It reveals to us where Christ is at each step of His ministry and what He is currently doing to cleanse and purify His bride for the day when He comes to take her home. It’s the greatest love story ever told. Not only has He gone away to prepare a mansion for her, but He is also intimately active in cleansing her for the consummation of the wedding. This holy covenant, the marriage vow, assures us that His word will not return unto Him void but it will accomplish that for which it is sent. In Hosea 2:19-20, we read, “And I will betroth thee unto Me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto Me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in loving kindness, and in mercies. I will even betroth thee unto Me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know the LORD.” This “knowing” is also referred to as the “at-one-ment” when we have been filled with the fullness of God.
