Preceding thoughts: How to Hear God; Prophecy is Natural (pt. 2) “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” -Jesus Christ (John 10:27) I will not, here, make a theological apology for the applicability of prophecy today, as I have done that elsewhere (The Year of the Lord’s Favor (or…
Been on the topic of the latter-days for a little while, I think before moving forward it would be prudent to discuss the general biblical concept of ‘antichrist.’ In giving greater enlightenment to what ‘antichrist’ is, we can have a better discernment of the coming antichrist kingdom, and the coming antichrist person. A prequel to…
2 Peter 2:9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: (This may be a bit long for a single post, so I will start here with some principles on how I will proceed on this thought, and then…
Where there is no vision, the people perish… – Prov 29:18 1 Sam 3:1-3 And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was precious in those days; there was no open vision. 2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his…

1 Cor 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. Mark 4:26-28 So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground; 27 And should sleep,…
Bruce Lee said that mastering kung fu was ‘being water.’ The water takes the shape of the container it is poured into… it flows passively through the paths of least resistance… and in its very passivity is its power. Water is fully passive, yet immensely powerful. It can flow in overwhelming currents, sweep across landscapes,…
Nearly 400 years ago a group of Europeans landed in Virginia. These Europeans were not slave owners, and held no plans to conquer the continent. Most of them were Protestants escaping the extreme persecution of the church of England. All of them were Christians. Though they held varying theological perspectives they unified, and governed themselves…
Is God three, or is God one? Let me begin by saying that I do not like to use terms that are unbiblical to determine biblical concepts. Thus, while I am a Christian, I do not like the term ‘Trinity,’ or the phrase ‘God in three PERSONS’ because neither of these are actually biblical terminology. …
I recently made a post which introduced this thought, called: Entropy – Why God, the Universe, and Pain Exist I mentioned, just briefly, the book of Job, and this prophet Elihu.
