Beginning a New Age

Posted on by

The festivals God commanded in the Bible and his Sabbaths have prophetic implications which form an outline of God’s plan for mankind. The new moon of the seventh month, is also a festival and a Sabbath, called the Feast of Trumpets. This feast has particular prophetic significance associated with the blowing of trumpets.

The Feast of Trumpets points to a time in the future when, as related in Scripture, a trumpet, or trumpets, will be blown, to signal a series of prophesied events ushering in a new age. The events portrayed in what the Feast of Trumpets signifies are to be unprecedented in world history, and will forever change the kind of world human beings will inhabit, a world inestimably better in every way.

The Golden Lampstand

Posted on by

The Bible is full of symbolic language, and references to physical symbols as well, which have deep spiritual significance, little understood by most people, even many who read the Bible and profess to be Christians.

Explored in this message presented by Rod Reynolds is the symbolism associated with the “lampstand,” in the Tabernacle and later in the Temple of God in Jerusalem, and also “lampstands” referenced in the book of Revelation and elsewhere in Scripture. These have significance for every person who is part of God’s Church, and for the world at large, that I hope will interest you, and that you will gain understanding of if you have not understood before, or reminded of if you did.

Jesus said we are to seek first the kingdom of God. If we are to seek first “the kingdom of God,” should we not understand clearly what the kingdom of God is? Is it in your heart? Is it going to heaven? Or is it something more real and tangible than you might have imagined. What does the Bible reveal about the “mystery” of the kingdom of God?

Unlocking the Mystery of Mankind’s Destiny

Posted on by

As human beings our lives are largely consumed by those things that we think are important at any given time. In reality, however, often those things we think are so important are of fleeting significance, and will soon be forgotten. Those things that truly are important, however, and that are of lasting significance, are commonly given scant attention. The true destiny God desires for human beings is not only a subject about which most people know virtually nothing, but it’s also a subject to which most people give little thought or concern.

Fulfilled Prophecy a Proof of God and the Bible

Posted on by

How do we really know God exists? How do we really know that God answers prayers and keeps his word? How do we really know even what his word is?

Many people, in reality the vast majority, live their lives with little or no knowledge of or regard for the true God. There are many who scoff at the idea that God actually intervenes in a decisive way in the affairs of men and nations (2 Peter 3:3-4).

Fulfilled prophecy is one of the primary proofs not only that God exists, but of his identity as the God of the Bible, and of the Bible’s authority as the Word of God (Isaiah 40:18, 22-25; 41:21-23; 45:21-22).
