    The Prophecy In The Upper Room, Part 2

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 19, 2022
     | 1,056 views

    The Lord Jesus gave a promise to His disciples and those who would come to Him for salvation that He would return for them (John 14:1-3). These verses are considered to be His teaching on the "Rapture". Are we correct in this interpretation? We will look at the evidence.

    On the night before He was to undergo the trial of the crucifixion and the redemptive work it ensued on behalf of fallen humanity, Jesus had given the disciples the assurance that even though He would soon leave them, He also promised that He would return and "receive you to Myself, that ...read more

    Did you know “thorns” are mentioned 57 times in the Bible. Two of the most famous references are here and Jesus’ crown of thorns. A thorn is considered a curse of the ground, yet it is from a thorn bush we pick our most beautiful roses.

    Thorns And Grace (July 2012).

    Perhaps one of the most intriguing passages of scripture is that of Paul's mention of the "thorn in his flesh." Paul expounded upon his metaphor of the thorn as he said that it was something that kept his pride in check.

    THORNS AND GRACE 2 Corinthians 12:1-10 I remember going barefoot as a ten year old kid, when I was living in Aiken as a preacher’s kid. As I was going barefoot, I wound up stepping on a board that had three nails in it. The pain got my attention and definitely ...read more

    The belief that human beings have an eternal spirit and that it will return to a place in the afterlife known as Heaven or Hell are from Judeo-Christian teachings found in the Bible.

    "Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living." (Genesis 2:7 NIV) The word “breathed” (Heb: ‘ruwach”) means wind or spirit. "By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you ...read more

    How can anyone describe with our limited human vocabulary the glory and wonder of God's heaven? John's vision shows that God is in control of the events here on earth and will bring all of history to a conclusion on HIs terms.

    Revelation Chapter 4 opens with the apostle John being commanded to "come up here" (v.1). He is brought to the throne room of God Almighty in all of its glory and majesty. It is far more beautiful and magnificent than any kind of palace built for kings and emperors here on Earth. What ...read more

    The Glorious Face Of God: A Sermon For Transfiguration Sunday

    We all want to see the face of God. Someday we shall see Christ in all of His glory who is the face of God we shall see. In the meanwhile, the greater glimpses of the glory of God is only rarely revealed to certain selected persons such as Peter, James, and John on the Mount of Transfiguration.

    The Glorious Face of God 2 Corinthians 4:3-6 But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.
