The Promise Of Understanding Series

Contributed by Larry Turner on Mar 5, 2013

Jesus promises that when we pay attention, understand, and obey what we have been taught He will give us the keys to unlock the secrets of the Kingdom.

Two kingdoms are at war with each other, the kingdom of sin that leads to death and the Kingdom of Jesus that leads to life. Two kingdoms in an epic battle for each of us.

From Sinner To Saint Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Feb 27, 2018

During the crucifixion a man who was a certified sinner asked Jesus for forgiveness. Forgiveness was freely given and he died with no good works to his name. This is grace in action.

Who Is The Antichrist? Paul, And Conclusions (Final In Series) Series

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on May 25, 2015

The apostle Paul's comments about the coming man of sin jive perfectly with Daniel's, Jesus', and John's. One would expect this in a Book that proclaims itself to be the Word of God. One author in Heaven speaking His truths through many authors on earth.

7. PAUL: II THESSALONIANS 2 Did Paul ever deal with the question of the antichrist? Most assuredly. And as one might expect, this passage, II Thessalonians 2, has been abused quite a bit through the years. Let’s look at the first 12 verses. In the first place, Paul meant in no way to ...read more
