Evil has a Purpose - Part 2

Universal death is not the result of universal sin; rather universal sin is the result of this universal dying condition. The Word of life has a secret and only the sons are reveled this secret. We can see it in Romans 16:25-27  Now to Him who is able to strengthen you by my gospel and by the proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery CONCEALED for ages past BUT now revealed AND made known through the writings of the prophets by the command of the eternal God, in order to lead ALL nations to the obedience that comes from faith to the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.  And the second place the secret is seen is in 1 Corinthians 2:6-8--->Among the mature, however, we speak a message of wisdom—but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. No, we speak of the mysterious and hidden wisdom of God,a which He destined for our glory before time began. ....  Do we see in those verses the remo

Evil has a Purpose - Part 1

“I will give you the glory of these kingdoms and authority over them,” the devil said, “ because they are mine to give to anyone I please . Luke 4:6 Hmmmmmm Now where did the devil get this authority and why does he still have it? Does wondering minds question the Word of life or does the minds of many stare out into darkness with no questions. But even Michael, one of the mightiest of the angels, did not dare accuse the devil of blasphemy, but simply said, “The Lord rebuke you!” (This took place when Michael was arguing with the devil about Moses’ body.) Jude 9 So Michael 'did not dare accuse the devil of blasphemy,' but in Revelation 12, Michael and his messengers battle the devil and his messengers and the message of Michael was stronger than the devil's and the devil was hurled down to the earth, and his angels with him. Then the devil will be strip of all his authority. hmmmmmmmm again are we seeing why this evil must rule for a season and how TRUTH is casting down th

Second Coming 2

In my baby days I would have fired this verse at Brother Frankie's post on second coming. So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Hebrews 9:28 That was the day I stood outside of the tabernacle. But the day I went into the holy place I would have looked at Hebrews 9:28 IN context and would have looked at other bible versions and even a Greek bible. Now by His Spirit I like to look at His appear the SECOND TIME ..... For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. Hebrews

REPENT! FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND

THE KINGDOM OF GOD Part 27 REPENT! FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND (continued) The Greek word translated in the King James Version of the Bible as “repentance,” in its plainest and most literal meaning signifies A CHANGE OF MIND. Yet that in itself can miss the mark. A better rendering would be TO TAKE ANOTHER MIND. Thus repentance means “to change the mind” — and with a new kind of mind. The command of our Lord, “Repent! for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” would have been more literally translated, “Take a new mind! for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” If you even try to understand the things of the Kingdom of God without having a new mind you will be thoroughly confused and confounded. It means that as we approach the Kingdom every man who from his birth, or from his entrance into society, or from his beginnings in religion, remains unchanged in the thoughts, ideas, opinions, perceptions and conceptions he has about God, himself, and the nature of all things, is shut up fr
