Contributed by Tighmir I. Sayles on Aug 29, 2013

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

Highway From Heaven

Contributed by David Roth on Jan 24, 2015

Epiphany 2 B. Jesus calls Nathanael as a disciple telling him that he will see angels ascending and descending on the Son of Man, a reference to Jacob's Ladder. Christ has united us to the Father, a bridge, ladder, or highway connecting earth and heaven.

“Highway from Heaven” Epiphany 2 J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. Connections. Our lives seem to be all about connections. Our homes need utilities – water, gas, ...read more

Remember Your Creator

Contributed by Hans Krause on Nov 11, 2018

Two men think about life as they face the end of their journey on earth. Has life been meaningless or relevant? Do they look forward to a joyless process of degradation, a painful descent towards the valley of death, or to something more glorious beyond the horizon?

The Key To Freedom

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

The more you read of the history of our nation the more you realize the heroes of our history were not gods come down to earth, but they were weak and fallible men. It was their dependence upon God that enabled them to declare their independence from tyranny.
