    Heaven Exists

    Contributed by Dennis King on Sep 22, 2021
     | 2,193 views

    Yes, heaven exists but the description of the three (or more) levels of heaven are illusive. Also, do we have bodies there? Are we conscious? Do we have tactile feelings similar to what we experience now?

    Heaven Exists Before we get into the existence of heaven, let's consider exactly when do we go? As with numerous Biblical topics, many churches, under Christianity's umbrella, have different beliefs on these topics. The following are my thoughts as reinforced by the specified verses from ...read more

     | 2,088 views

    Let us concentrate on the fact that we have entered into the heavenly Jerusalem even now rather than all the trials we now face.

    We're Marching to Zion Hebrews 12:18-29 In 1707, a hymn-writer named Isaac Watts wrote a hymn beginning with the words “Come ye that love the Lord.” It is a joyful hymn of praise which calls us to reflect on all God has provided for us.

    The Sprinkled Blood

    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 5, 2023
     | 2,024 views

    Five places in Scripture refer to the sprinkling of blood. It brings preservation, confirms covenants, purifies from uncleanness, sanctifies, and gives access. It's at the center of God's great redemption!

    THE SPRINKLED BLOOD Heb. 12:18-25 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. One of my pet-peeves is Christians with Christian bumper stickers driving discourteously or dangerously – it’s a bad testimony. 2. One guy had a bumper sticker, “Jesus is my Co-Pilot.” He got in a bad wreck. A policeman came along and ...read more

    The two mountains mentioned in these verses direct us to examine the basis of our relationship with God. Do we attempt to interact with him at Mt. Sinai or Mt. Zion?

    “Ararat, Moriah, Sinai, Nebo, Gerizim, Ebal, Carmel, Zion. Those are just a few of the many mountains mentioned in the Bible. What happened at Mt. Ararat? Noah’s ark came to rest there. You may remember that on Mt. Moriah the Lord provided a substitute sacrifice to take the place of the one he ...read more

    What is peace, how do we get it, and what are the consequences if we do not obtain authentic peace?

    Peace. All I want is an hour of peace! If I could just shut out the noise, pull the plug on the telephone, and send everybody packing for a couple of days, I’d be all right.

    Once again in this text, we find the superiority of the New Covenant over the Old Covenant. The writer makes a distinction between two great mountains in the Bible, Mt. Sinai and Mt. Zion.

    THE TWO MOUNTAINS Heb 12:18-24 The key thought of the book of Hebrews is seen in the word “better.” Throughout this book, we have sought to emphasize the superiority of Jesus Christ over the Old Covenant. Jesus is better than the prophets, than the angels, than Moses and Aaron. The New ...read more
