Sinner’s Prayer
Posted in Topical Studies on Apr 29th, 2013
When some evangelical churches offer an invitation at the end of the service, there are several things many do today that are incompatible with the Scriptures. The ones I wish to discuss in this post are:

There is an attempt by certain men in certain denominations (mine included) to change the scripture to meet their own traditions and beliefs.
Ten Commandments

Exo 20:1 And God spoke all these words, saying:
The Five Meanings of the Word, Israel
Posted in Bible Studies, Topical Studies on Jan 13th, 2013
1. The patriarch Jacob (Gen 32:28; 35:10) 2. The physical nation of Israelites (Gen 47:27) 3. The northern ten tribes opposed to the two southern tribes (1 Sam 11:8) 4. Spiritually, all of God’s people, both Jew and Gentile (Rom 1:16; 9:6, 24; 10:12; Gal 3:28; Col 3:11) 5. Jesus Christ Himself (Isa 42:1-3; Isa [...]
‘Christian’ – Where the Word Originated
Posted in Bible Studies, Topical Studies on Dec 28th, 2012
Christian was a name that the people of Antioch in Syria gave to the followers of Christ in their city.
Upon This Rock
Posted in Bible Studies, Topical Studies on Dec 22nd, 2012
Originally published 7/31/2001 (Mat 16:13) “When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?”
Synagogue of Satan

There are two places in Scripture that mention the Synagogue of Satan. They are:

I Suffer Not a Woman
Posted in Bible Studies, Topical Studies on Sep 4th, 2011
1Ti 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. This is a completely new rework of a study published at the old website. In First Timothy, Paul is giving Timothy instructions about guiding the church at Ephesus to observe proper doctrine. Here [...]
Antioch of Syria
Posted in Bible Studies, Topical Studies on Jun 18th, 2011
(Acts 11:19-30) Antioch in Syria (modern Antakya) was the third greatest city in the Roman Empire and its influence was felt far and wide. Only Alexandria and Rome were greater. In the United States, the three largest cities are New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago. Antioch, then, was like Chicago. Just as Chicago has a [...]
Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit
Posted in Topical Studies on Apr 3rd, 2011
Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is rejecting His offer of salvation to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as one’s Savior. If a person rejects Jesus Christ as Savior when the Holy Spirit opens his eyes to his need of a Savior, then that person cannot be forgiven his sins.
Passing Through the Fire
Posted in Topical Studies on Jan 27th, 2011
The temple workers had cut and split wood for several days preparing for the solemn rites to be performed today. They began early in the morning to build a fire in the fire pit.
Are Christmas Trees Pagan?
Posted in Topical Studies on Dec 15th, 2010
When studying the Bible, one should never take one or a few verses out of context and make a doctrinal point out of the particular verse or verses. If not understood in the context of the issue and surrounding passages, we often obtain a false reading of the particular scripture. Jeremiah 10:3-4 is a passage [...]
Full Armor of God, The
Posted in Bible Studies, Topical Studies on Nov 28th, 2010
Paul tells us that our fight in this life is not against other people, but against Satan and his minions. Even though we may face persecution from our human enemies, it is the spirits of wickedness that actually oppose us and incite our enemies against us. This is the source of all the strife we [...]
Rapture and Related Events, The
Topic 1—Rapture Timing
Posted in Bible Studies, Bible Study Series, Topical Studies on Nov 27th, 2010
Foreword This is the first part of a five part series. I do believe that the church will be caught up in the clouds to be with our Lord for eternity. I consider myself pre-trib only because I believe that the so-called rapture takes place before the seven bowls of the wrath of God, which [...]

Topic 2—Essential Rapture Events
Posted in Bible Studies, Bible Study Series, Topical Studies on Nov 26th, 2010
These are the basic events of the rapture of the church with a small amount of commentary. We will be gathered back to Jesus and taken to heaven with Him after the last trumpet, which I believe to be the Seventh Trumpet of Revelation. The Bible says, “Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall [...]

Topic 3—Olivet Discourse
Posted in Bible Studies, Bible Study Series, Topical Studies on Nov 25th, 2010
Many teach that the Olivet Discourse, which is the prophecy in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21, does not apply to the church, but only to the Jews (and Israel). We may easily answer this charge by examining the brief conversation the disciples have with Jesus before He begins the Olivet Discourse. Matthew 24:1-3 [...]

Topic 4—The Last Trump
Posted in Topical Studies on Nov 24th, 2010
Some teach that the “last trump” in 1 Corinthians 15:52, and the “trump of God” of 1 Thessalonians 4:16 is not the seventh trumpet of Revelation 11:15. In fact, they will give many examples of trumpets: trumpets for prayer, trumpets for war, trumpets to signify events, etc. However, none of these examples has any thing [...]

Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
