ISRAEL’S HALLMARK BLESSINGS AND CURSES

  Isa 35:3 Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. Isa 35:4 Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you. Isa 35:5 Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Isa 35:6 Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.   There are a great number of blessings that Israel will enjoy once the kingdom of heaven is established on the earth. Dozens upon dozens could be listed from the things spoken about by Isaiah alone. When I used the expression “hallmark blessings,” (which of course is...

THE DOCTRINE OF THE “10,OOO INSTUCTORS IN CHRIST”

1Co 4:10  We are fools for Christ’s sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised. 1Co 4:11  Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace; 1Co 4:12  And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it: 1Co 4:13  Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day. 1Co 4:14  I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you. 1Co 4:15  For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.   Most, if not...

CONTRADICTIONS IN THE KING JAMES VERSION?

Are there errors and contradictions in the KJV bible?   But now before dealing with any of the examples of ‘supposed errors’ that you cite, I want to say a few things about the overall issue of there being a number of differences between what is recorded in the Samuel/Kings account of things in Israel’s history and what is recorded in the Chronicles account of that same time. For some times folks fail to realize that they should actually expect differences to exist between the two accounts. Not because they are the result of ‘legitimate scribal errors,’ or anything like that. But because they are two purposely different accounts. So first of all it is important to realize and understand that there are reasons why God has two separate historical accounts of the...

THE TREE OF GOOD AND EVIL AND THE GAP THEORY

What is the purpose behind “the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,” and why the penalty of death in connection with eating of it?   Gen 2:15  And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. Gen 2:16  And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: Gen 2:17  But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.     My understanding is that the implementation of the plan of evil took place in the heavens first among the angelic realm and then upon the earth. The fact that the plan of evil was already in existence by the sixth day of creation is evident to me by the fact...

SPEAKING IN TONGUES AND SPIRITUAL GIFTS

Mar 16:15  And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Mar 16:16  He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Mar 16:17  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; Mar 16:18  They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Mar 16:19  So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. Mar 16:20  And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.   Most...

OUR PERSONAL ‘ONE-ON-ONE’ REALATIONSHIP WITH THE FATHER

Rom 12:3  For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. Rom 12:4  For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: Rom 12:5  So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.   Does each member as individuals in the body have a person one on one relationship with God that no one else will have since it seems that we are all individuals?   My understanding is that the essence of what you state in your question is certainly true, i.e. that as the individual members of the body of Christ that we are each of us clearly does...

CHRIST THE FIRST FRUITS AND THEY THAT ARE CHRIST’S AT HIS COMING

1Co 15:20  But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. 1Co 15:21  For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. 1Co 15:22  For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 1Co 15:23  But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming. 1Co 15:24  Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. 1Co 15:25  For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. 1Co 15:26  The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.  Q. Is it correct to say Paul is not talking about the resurrection of the body of...

GROWING IN GODLY WISDOM AND JUDGMENT

1Th 4:9  But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another. 1Th 4:10  And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more;   This is the 2nd part of the earlier study entitled “Judging the affairs of this life righteously as a son;” and in the first study we looked at how the Father would have His sons to judge the things that he may face in this world in a godly manner by proving “what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” in all of the circumstances of his life. However, in this study, we are going to look at how we are taught to “increase” in our wisdom and judgment by allowing ourselves to...
