πŸ‘‘ The Revelation of Jesus Christ

The last great book of the Bible opens with the words: β€œThe revelation of Jesus Christ,” and from these words it derives its title: β€œThe Revelation.” In this book St. John deals largely with the return of Christ in glory to judge and reign.

II Thes. 1:7,8 tells us … ➑

πŸ‘‘ She’s A Keeper!

The Apostle Paul wrote that “young women” with “husbands” and “children” should be “keepers at home”Β (Titus 2:3,4). And as you may know, this phrase is the subject of much controversy among Christian wives and moms, most of whom desire to understand it clearly so that they can obey … ➑

πŸ‘‘ Striking Faith and Charity

In Paul’s epistle to Titus, he gives some instructions for “aged men” that contain good advice for believers of all ages, saying,

“That the aged men be… sound in faith, in charity…” (Titus 2:2).

The word “sound” meansΒ strong, healthyΒ andΒ wholesomeΒ (cf. Isa. 1:5,6), and all of God’s … ➑

πŸ‘‘ How Aged Men Should Behave

Recently I came across a web site called, “Lies That Moms Tell Their Kids To Get Them To Behave.” One mom told her kids she had a new phone app that could tell her when they were misbehaving behind her back!

Well, while children should heed Paul’s advice to … ➑

πŸ’‘πŸ’Œ Is This a Contradiction?

“Matthew says the chief priests took the money Judas cast down in the temple and bought the ‘field of blood.’ Peter, in Acts, says that Judas bought the field with the ‘reward of iniquity.’ On the surface, this appears to be a contradiction.”

First and foremost, the Word of … ➑

πŸ‘‘ Conduct Unbecoming a Christian

“…speak thou the things which become sound doctrine” (Titus 2:1).

The word “become” here meansΒ fittingΒ orΒ appropriate. Even if you never served in the military, you have probably heard that if an officer misbehaves he can be charged with “conduct unbecoming an officer.” That serious charge is … ➑

πŸ‘‘ Be Sure of What’s Pure!

“Unto the pure all things are pure…” (Titus 1:15).

Boy, a verse like that sure begs the questions, “Who are these pure people, and why are all things pure for them?”

Well, the word “pure” just means “clean,” as we see when Solomon asked,

“Who can say, I have

πŸ‘‘ No Beauty That We Should Desire Him

“Les Feldick taught that Isaiah 53:2 doesn’t mean the Lord Jesus was ugly, but that there was nothing in Him that would attract the Jews to Him as their King and Messiah. What do you say?”

I never thought about it that way, but Les is right! Isaiah wrote:… ➑

πŸ‘‘ You Can Make a Difference

One person can always make a difference. By one vote Texas was added to the union, Andrew Johnson was saved from impeachment, and Adolf Hitler gained power over the Nazi party. In the spiritual realm, one person has frequently made an enormous difference. Only Jehosheba hid young Joash from … ➑

πŸ’‘πŸ‘‘ Will Jesus be in Heaven and in the New Jerusalem at the Same Time?

“We know that that, as Gentiles, we will be in heaven with our Savior, but our Lord and Savior will also reign in the new Jerusalem. Will He be in both places at the same time?”

In the eternal state, the Lamb will have a throne on the new … ➑

πŸ‘‘ Hold Fast or the Gainsayers Will Get Ya!

As the Apostle Paul came to the end of his list of qualifications for the ministry, he closed by insisting that pastors should always be

“Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince

πŸ‘‘ The Value of the Four Gospels

Our Apostle Paul wrote, “All Scripture…is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” (2 Tim. 3:16). Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John were written to and for the nation Israel under the law, in accordance with her earthly, millennial hope. It is in the epistles of … ➑

πŸ‘‘ Reaching Real Maturity

Spiritually speaking, Paul considered Timothy his “son in the faith” (I Tim. 1:2). And, like any parent, he had noble aspirations for his loved one. In the Book of II Timothy, he is very specific about four things he wants Timothy to become for the Lord.

First, he wanted … ➑

πŸ‘‘ Miles And Miles Of Scripture

How much, I wonder, do the Christian parents among our readers show their children their love for the Word, and for Christ, and for the souls for whom He died?

For many years I worked with my father, first full-time, then part-time, as a city missionary in Paterson, N.J. … ➑

πŸ‘‘ It Was About Time!

“In hope of eternal life, which God…promised before the world began” (Titus 1:2).

In the Law of Moses, God promised the people of Israel that they could “live” (Lev. 18:5)–liveΒ eternally–if they kept His commandments. We know that’s what Leviticus 18:5 meant because the LordΒ quotedΒ that verse … ➑

πŸ‘‘ Gospel Power

“For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost…” (1 Thes. 1:5).

On Paul’s second apostolic journey, Paul, Silas, and Timothy had communicated the truth of the gospel of the grace of God to the Thessalonians. However, Paul recognized … ➑

πŸ’‘πŸ‘‘ Is Confessing in Public Required for Salvation?

β€œβ€¦if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Rom. 10:9,10).

πŸ‘‘ The Privilege Of Prayer

β€œHe shall pray for thee” (Gen. 20:7).

Abimelech, king of Gerar, had taken Abraham’s wife as his own, but had done so innocently. Sarah was a beautiful woman and Abraham, fearful for his life, had said: β€œShe is my sister,” and Sarah had vouched for Abraham’s subterfuge, telling Abimelech: … ➑

πŸ’‘πŸ‘‘ Did Paul Have the Option to Live or Die?

“How did Paul have the option to live or die in Philippians 1:23?”

Paul wasn’t thinking of taking his life, for that would have violated the commandment “thou shalt not kill.” God purposely left that commandment open-ended to include suicide. That is, He didn’t say, “Thou shalt not killΒ … ➑

πŸ‘‘ Father to Father

I once read a testimonial from a father who lamented being so consumed with his career that he did not share his faith with his children. The result was that one of his sons plunged himself into a lifestyle of atheism, drug addiction, immorality, and other destructive behaviors. Some … ➑
