    Prophecy: The Messiah Will be the Passover Lamb

    Prophecy: The Messiah Will be the Passover Lamb

    It is important in the discussion of the Old Testament prophecies that Jesus fulfilled, to remember that these are not just words on pages, or a computer screen. The Bible claims to be the eternal word of God, and that the words within have their origin from outside of time. These word have the power to bring a human being into everlasting life, if the instructions are heeded and believed. When we speak of Jesus being the Passover Lamb that takes away the sins of the world, we must remember that the intent by the Holy Spirit is that Jesus would become your Passover Lamb.

    In this 23rd Old Testament prophecy, Moses calls for the elders of Israel to “Pick a Lamb for themselves…” They had to choose of their own free will, to take the Lamb and then place his blood upon their home in order to be saved. It was not enough to simply know what to do, they had to go out and actually do it themselves to be saved.

    In the prophecy of the Passover Lamb, there is a requirement to take action personally. When we get to the New Testament we find that in the fulfillment of Jesus being the Passover Lamb who removes our sin, we must partake of Jesus personally, not casually but with heartfelt forethought.

  • Memorial Day: Places of Testing and Growth

    Memorial Day: Places of Testing and Growth

    Today we celebrate “Memorial Day”.

    It is a day that we set aside to remember those who have sacrificed their lives over the years, so that we might be free and safe here in the United States of America.

    “Memorial Day”, is to help us remember, but the Bible also wants for us to celebrate other “Memorial Days”. Days in which the Lord has shown us His mighty power, His Love, and who He is.

    Days in which we might “Remember” who our God is, and that He has the power to also deliver us.

    Exodus 12:14 So this day shall be to you a memorial; and you shall keep it as a feast to the LORD throughout your generations. You shall keep it as a feast by an everlasting ordinance

    Daily Walk: In Honor of Mother’s Day

    Daily Walk: In Honor of Mother’s Day

    Psalms 131:2 Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul, Like a weaned child with his mother; Like a weaned child is my soul within me.

    It is interesting how something becomes more valuable once you no longer have it. My dear mother went home to be with the Lord on September 30, 2007 suddenly and without warning. I remember sitting at my desk at 6 am while I was preparing my heart to go before the people at my little church for Sunday services, as their pastor.

    Prophecy: Salvation Promised to Isaac’s Spiritual Descendants

    Prophecy: Salvation Promised to Isaac’s Spiritual Descendants

    The purpose of all the Old Testament prophecies, is to build faith in us. Line upon line, verse upon verse, a pattern of promises that we can base our life upon. When we come to the New Testament and read the testimony of those who wrote concerning the events surrounding Jesus Christ, we see that each of these Old Testament predictions are fulfilled in His birth, life, death, and resurrection. When God makes a promise, men may either believe what He has said and trust Him, or they can reject God’s what He has said. For those who believe, and live their lives for Jesus, they are acceptable to God based on their trust. Salvation is really just that simple.

    I have often heard it said by people who have read or studied a doctrine or particular verse in the Bible, that they do not like to read any other book or commentary that brings up a subject that they have already studied. I suppose their thinking is that it is rather boring to go over the same subject again and again, rather than to learn something new. It would only be necessary to read the Bible once, if we could grasp everything that we read the first time. Fortunately, even after a lifetime of studying the Bible, there is always something new to be gleaned from every verse of the Bible, regardless of how many times we read it. After studying and teaching the Bible for nearly 30 years, nearly every time I read a verse again, I gain a new insight and depth that I had not understood before.

    Prophecy: The Messiah Will Come from Jacob’s Son

    Prophecy: The Messiah Will Come from Jacob’s Son

    The fact that Jacob is able to see into the future, as the Lord gives him the prophetic ability to see what will happen in “the last days”, is truly amazing. This once deceitful, conniving, self centered man, has been now transformed into God’s man. His former name “Jacob”, the liar, who was guided by his own flesh and impulses, is now called by God “Israel”, one who is guided by God’s Spirit.

    Genesis 32:28 And He said, “Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed.”

    In Genesis chapter 48, we see Jacob now old and nearly blind. His physical senses are greatly diminished, but his spiritual abilities are greatly enhanced by God. Being nearly blind, he asks his son Joseph to come before him, in advance of the other brothers, to pronounce his prophetic word for Joseph’s two son’s Ephraim and Manasseh.

  • The Last Days: A Correct View of the Rapture

    The Last Days: A Correct View of the Rapture

    How important is it that we continually teach the doctrine of “The Rapture of the Church?” According to Jesus, is one of the most important doctrines that we MUST continually study, meditate on, and continue to look forward to.

    One of the points that critics of the Rapture claim, is that “The Rapture is not taught in the Bible”. When I hear someone say this, I am always amazed. I know that they didn’t come to this conclusion by reading and studying the Bible themselves. This opinion came by what they heard someone else say or teach. If we simply read the Bible we will come away with the conviction that Jesus will return for His church at a time just prior to the beginning of the seven year Tribulation.

    The description of this event found in Paul’s epistle to the church at Thessalonica, is clear that the Lord will return for His church at time appointed by Him.

    Prophecy: The Messiah Preceded by a Forerunner

    Prophecy: The Messiah Preceded by a Forerunner

    The Forerunner of the Messiah will prepare the hearts of the people to receive Him.

    Old Testament Prediction:

    Malachi 4:6 And he will turn The hearts of the fathers to the children, And the hearts of the children to their fathers, Lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.”

    New Testament Fulfillment:

    Luke 1:16-17 And he will turn many of the children of Israel to the Lord their God. He will also go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, “to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,’ and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”

  • Signs of the Last Days: “Increase in Lawlessness”

    Signs of the Last Days: “Increase in Lawlessness”

    For those who watch the news daily for events that continue to indicate the soon arrival of Jesus Christ, this kind of behavior immediately captures our attention. The new testament is filled with verses of scripture warning of a marked increase in “lawlessness” as we approach the return of Jesus.

    Matthew 24:3 Now as Jesus sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”

    Matthew 24:12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.

    “Lawlessness” is defined as: “people who are not governed by or obedient to laws.”

    In the years immediately preceding the destruction of the earth in the days of Noah, lawlessness was increasing until it reached a pinnacle. At Sodom and Gomorrah, the behavior of the people in the community became so vile and evil in the lawlessness of those cities, that God destroyed everyone who lived there, except Lot and his family.

    One God, Three Persons and the Importance of Unity

    One God, Three Persons and the Importance of Unity

    Many people struggle with the doctrine of the Trinity. Some do so because the word “Trinity” is not found in the Bible. The Bible never makes definitions for principles that it teaches, it simply reveals these truths to us in examples found in the Bible.
    The Fact is that the Bible teaches that the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, these three are One God.

    If we study the characteristics of each of the three of the Godhead, we learn from the Bible that each are called “God”. There are hundreds of verses in the Bible which substantiate that each of the three are called “God”

    Are Increases in Natural Disasters a Sign of Jesus Return?

    Are Increases in Natural Disasters a Sign of Jesus Return?

    Whatever your opinion is of the occurrences of natural disasters, the data regarding the marked increase in frequency and intensity is compelling. It is not a coincidence that this data runs parallel to Jesus prediction that these natural events would indicate to the residents of earth that His supernatural return was near. In fact, the entire purpose of the 3,5oo0 prophetic predictions found in the 66 books of the Bible, of which over 3,00o have already been fulfilled with 100 precision and accuracy, is to prove to the reader that the Bible is a supernatural document from outside the domain of time. The reason that Jesus told us there would be an increase in natural disasters just prior to His return, was to prepare us so that we would not be caught off guard.

    “He Is Risen, He Is Not Here”

    “He Is Risen, He Is Not Here”

    In 1846 dr. Simon Greenleaf wrote a 3 volume work called A treatise on the laws of evidence.

    This work is considered to be one of the single most important authorities on the legal procedure for handling and examining evidence in a court of law.

    Dr. Greenleaf examined the historical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ to see if the internal evidence of the scriptures about Jesus death and resurrection were true or false.

    The results are contained in a book that Dr. Greenleaf wrote called An examination of the testimony of the four evangelist by the rules of evidence administered in the courts of justice.

    Dr. Greenleaf came to the striking conclusion that according to the same rules that are used in a court of law to examine evidence, there is more evidence for the historical resurrection of Jesus Christ than any other event in all of human history.

  • Good Friday: What Jesus Felt the Day He Died

    Good Friday: What Jesus Felt the Day He Died

    There were at least 21 different laws that were violated in conducting these 6 trials throughout the night against Jesus. The following are seven of the most important:

    No legal transactions, including a trial, could be conducted at night.
    It was illegal for judges to participate in the arrest of the accused. (John 18:3 John 18:28)
    They struck Jesus during the trials: It was illegal to strike the accused during a trial. The use of violence during the trial was apparently unopposed by the judges. (John 18:22,23)
    In a Jewish court, the accused assumed to be innocent, until proved guilty by two or more witnesses. The Jews failed to find two witnesses who could agree on what Jesus had done. (Mark 14:59 Matt 18:63)
    When it was discovered that the witnesses had disagreed on their testimony, the prisoner should have been released, and all charges dropped. (Mark 14:56-59)
    A guilty verdict was rendered against Jesus without any evidence. (John 18:30)
    The voting process to condemn Jesus was illegal. It should have been by roll call, with the youngest voting first. Here they all voted together at the same time. (Matthew 26:66)
    Although the Jewish leadership clearly violated their own laws, Jesus never once opened His mouth to defend Himself. Amazingly, Isaiah predicted that this would happen more than 600 years before Jesus was born.

    Isaiah 53:7 He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, And as a sheep before its shearers is silent, So He opened not His mouth.

  • Telling People About Jesus, “Really a Nuisance”

    Telling People About Jesus, “Really a Nuisance”

    Telling people about Jesus Christ may be a nuisance, but if we do not tell them, the Lord will hold us accountable for our silence. For reasons known only to the Lord, He has ordained that the Good News of Salvation be declared by human beings, to other human beings. God did not proclaim the Gospel by Angels or by supernatural means. He has left the responsibility for the eternal souls of people, to us.

    Saving people is not our responsibility, but telling them about how they can find forgiveness of their sins and eternal life, is our job.

    Jesus, in a manner of speaking said: “You catch then, I will clean them”.

    If we humbly and lovingly tell those whom we come in contact with that God is ready to forgive their sins and grant eternal life to all who come to God in Jesus name, then we have done all that He requires. If we are afraid and fear what they might say to us, or how they would react when we share the Lord with them, then they may be lost for our lack of courage.

    Is the Father Greater than the Son?

    Is the Father Greater than the Son?

    John 14:28 You have heard Me say to you, “I am going away and coming back to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, ‘I am going to the Father,’ for My Father is greater than I.

    For those who believe that Jesus is both Lord and Savior of their life, we understand that Jesus is God. We know that the Bible reveals that there is “One God”, who has revealed Himself in three persons. The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. All three are God.

    Why then does Jesus say “My Father is greater than I?”

    It is important to understand that when Jesus came to earth as the Messiah and Savior of the world, He was doing so as a servant. In order for Jesus as the Eternal God, and the One who spoke the universe into existence, it was necessary that He humble Himself and take the position of a servant, in order to secure our salvation. The old testament speaks of the fact that the Messiah would come as a humble servant of God to do His will.

    Bringing The Dead Back To Life

    Bringing The Dead Back To Life

    Romans 4:17 …God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did…

    There are those things in our life that seem sometimes, as if they are dead. Relationships, opportunities, feelings, things we live with in regret of, because we didn’t do what we should have done.

    The God that we serve is in the business of resurrecting things that have died.

    We might think that it is too late for us. Those missed opportunities are gone and we feel like we will not be able to change anything now that the time has passed. If you have felt that way, you would not be alone. All of us live with regrets of the past. The important point of this verse in Romans 4:17 is that we should never count anything as “too late” or “dead”.

    Prophecy: The Messiah’s Body, Prepared For You

    Prophecy: The Messiah’s Body, Prepared For You

    In order for God to be able to justify the sacrifice that Jesus was desiring to make of his body for all of man’s sin, Jesus would have to take the body of a human being and live amongst us as one of us. The old testament book of Ruth leaves us with a clear example of the fact that only a close relative has the right to be the redeemer of a family member. In order for Jesus to offer the sacrifice of his life, the Father prepared a body for him before the foundation of the world. Jesus is often spoken of as “The Lamb slain from the foundation of the world”.

    Revelation 13:8 “All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”

    The Pharisee and the Prostitute

    The Pharisee and the Prostitute

    Luke 7:36-40 Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to eat. And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil. Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, “This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner.” And Jesus answered and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.”

    In this story, Simon the Pharisee invites Jesus to have dinner with him in his home. While there, a woman enters the house of Simon, a woman who is described as “a sinner” comes and falls at the feet of Jesus. Apparently she was a prostitute who had heard Jesus speak to the crowds. Not caring what anyone thought, nor how foolish she might be seen, she burst into the house of Simon and falls at Jesus feet in deep repentance and worship of Jesus.
