Do We Christians Do This?
By the time of Malachi, Israel had literally become numb toward God, having gotten to that point by deliberately and continually moving from faithful and obedient to becoming full faithless and disobedient. They eventually became bitter toward God. Can you imagine that? They actually harbored animosity and bitterness toward the God who had rescued them from Egypt and many troubles after that.
Easter Blessings and Death of a Heretic
Easter’s resurrection of our Lord proved that perfect love conquers all evil. The grave could not keep Jesus. He arose due to His sinlessness and deity. He lives due to His sinlessness and deity. He loves due to His sinlessness and deity. He is God, very God, who took on the outer “robe” of humanity in order that He would perfectly fulfill the will of His Father and offered His life not only as a model of how we should live, but as a perfect substitution for us (Philippians 2), so that we personally, do not have to pay that price. He died so that we can gain eternal life and it is by faith in His propitiation that we find solace, comfort, eternal life and full acceptance by the Father.
Virtue Signaling is All That Remains
I’m quite certain that there are good people trying to get into the USA. Unfortunately, those people are nearly completely eclipsed by those whose intentions are not good and in any case, everyone coming into the USA by illegal means is breaking America’s laws. Turner seems to be saying that we should set all this aside and simply view them as people in need. Of course, their biggest need is salvation. I’d agree with that, but there’s more to it than that.
What Can Happen to Society, Pt 3
This is how far the Israelite society had fallen because of their continued rejection of God and His truth. They didn’t want to do things His way. They wanted to do things their way, much like the way global society today is doing things. God out. Self in. They think because there has been no immediate reckoning, that God either doesn’t hear, or worse, doesn’t exist. This is the exact same type of thinking that Israel entered into and because of it, got themselves in serious trouble time and time again.
Zechariah 14: Last Days in Detail
Zechariah 14 is a powerful and dynamic chapter that speaks of the Day of the Lord and the ultimate victory of God over evil. It serves as a reminder to all believers of the hope and redemption that is to come through Jesus Christ. The imagery of judgment, deliverance, and worship points to the final fulfillment of God’s promises to his people. As we await the return of Christ, we can take comfort in the knowledge that God is sovereign and will ultimately triumph over all.
How Things are Going
I’ve said this before and it bears repeating. I knew that the Left would try everything they could to stop Trump from doing what he could to make America great again. I’m not an idiot and neither are you. We know that whatever Trump accomplishes will only be due to God’s allowing him to accomplish it. However, Satan doesn’t give up. He doesn’t need a break, nor does he even stop when he knows he’s losing. He keeps on going, doing whatever he can to throw a monkey wrench into the works.
Zechariah 12: Deliverance of Judah
In truth, it is not just that Israel rejected the Good Shepherd, but that Israel then embraced/will embrace Worthless Shepherds throughout her history and will do so a final time in the future! This recounts the events of the Messiah’s first advent and death, followed by the destruction and dissolution of Jerusalem and Israel as a nation in AD 70.
Too Preposterous to Be True?
Understanding what Satan is attempting to accomplish and will be allowed to accomplish through those sold out to him, sets us free from the worry that fear can create. We are not meant to live forever in this life. The fact that God physically expelled Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden so that they could not eat of the tree of life after sinning proves that He doesn’t want us to live eternally in this life, in our sin. We will all pass from this life to the next and as Christians will be given immortal bodies forever free from sin. It will be then that we will live forever as He originally intended.
Technocratic Depravity
Unfortunately, this push for the USA’s involvement appears simply meant to break our economy and destroy our power. The EU wants to be top dog, according to Martin Armstrong. They ultimately want to bring back the old Roman Empire in a newer form so that they can usher in the type of truly global government they want to exist.
Zechariah 11: Israel’s Sin and Punishment
Zechariah 11 deals with the problems that Israel would face. The prophet was speaking a hundreds of years before Roman armies surrounded and sacked Jerusalem, but his words came to fulfillment. While many conservative commentators believe there was partial fulfillment of Zechariah’s prophecies in the Roman destruction of Jerusalem (AD 70), the full and final aspect of this fulfillment will not occur until the coming Tribulation period of seven years, leading up to the physical return of Jesus to this planet.
