This lesson is based on Chapter 12 of the book, Christ's Object Lessons, by Ellen G. White. This chapter is titled, "Asking to Give" and is based on Luke 11:1-13. Christ's disciples were much impressed by His prayers and by His habit of communion with God. One day after a short absence from their Lord, they found Him absorbed in supplication. Seeming unconscious of their presence, He continued praying aloud. The hearts of the disciples were deeply moved. As He ceased praying, they exclaimed, “Lo...
This lesson is based on Chapter 10 of the book, Christ's Object Lessons, by Ellen G White. The subject is Christ's parable of The Net, in Matthew 13:47-50. Both the parable of the tares and that of the net plainly teach that there is no time when all the wicked will turn to God. The wheat and the tares grow together until the harvest. The good and the bad fish are together drawn ashore for a final separation. Again, these parables teach that there is to be no probation after the judgment. When t...
Today's devotional though is presented by Jacob Frein. The topic is the Creation of Adam & Eve.
A devotional thought by Jacob Frein on Genesis Chapter 1:1-2.
Today's lesson is based on Chapter 4 of the book "Christ's Object Lessons" by Ellen G White. We will discuss Christ's parable of "The Tares" in Matthew Chapter 13. “Another parable put He forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field; but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.”
Today's lesson is from Chapter 2 of the book, "Christ's Object Lessons" by Ellen G White. Chapter 2 deals with Christ's parable of the sower and the seed. "By the parable of the sower, Christ illustrates the things of the kingdom of heaven, and the work of the great Husbandman for His people. Like a sower in the field, He came to scatter the heavenly grain of truth. And His parable teaching itself was the seed with which the most precious truths of His grace were sown."
The Bible speaks of one sin that is unpardonable or unforgiveable. What sin could be so bad that pardon is unavailable for it? Have I committed it already? If not, how do I recognize it? As we wrap up our Unlock Revelation series, we go the Bible once again to learn about this confusing, yet important topic.
There are millions of people who are seeking for something they can hold on to. Something that gives them peace and hope. Many have tried everything the world has to offer, wealth, fame, power, pleasure, and entertainment. Yet they still found their hearts were empty and their life filled with problems. In the word of God, we are told that God’s church would come back from the wilderness. What does the Bible teach about discovering God’s truth for today? What does God’s Word tell us about this c...
In the 12th chapter of the Book of Revelation there is a striking symbol of a woman dressed in white. She is faithful to her true lover, Jesus. She is undefiled with the corruption of false doctrines. She is described as Christ’s bride, or His church on earth. In Revelation 17, another woman arises. This woman rides upon a scarlet colored beast. The Bible calls her a harlot woman. She has left her true lover, Jesus Christ. This is the apostate system of religion. In this lesson, we’re going to l...
The Book of Revelation describes a group of 144,000 people at the end of time. Who are these people? What distinguishes them from others? It is a literal number or symbolic? Once again, we will let the Word of God tell us what this means and how to understand this group of people.
Does the book of Revelation give us any specific instruction about our own lifestyle? Does God have a plan of physical, mental and spiritual survival outlined in Revelation? We are all involved in a spiritual battle, a battle for the mind. This spiritual battle is going to determine who receives the worship of the world, and it comes to a head over the seal of God and the mark of the beast.
When people listen to a series like this on the Book of Revelation, the Mark of the Beast and the Mysterious Number 666 is the one topic people are really anxious to hear about. The subject of the Mark of the Beast brings up many different images in people’s minds. Our planet is heading for a calamity. One day everything on Earth is going to be shaken, not by an earthquake, but shaken by the Mark of the Beast. And when that happens we will see what our spiritual houses have been made of. We will...
The book of Revelation describes two systems of religion. It describes two ways of worship. The book of Revelation presents us with one of two choices. It really does not leave us with any middle ground. It presents a strong appeal to men and women in the last days of earth’s history. It’s an urgent call to commitment. This appeal can be summarized in the symbolism of the two women in Revelation.
In the New Testament, baptism is mentioned multiple times and yet there is a great deal of confusion on the subject. People have different ideas about what constitutes God’s preferred method of baptism. Jesus Himself mentions baptism in The Great Commission. Cleary, the subject of baptism must be supremely important if Jesus thought to discuss it with his disciples in one of the very last conversations he had with them. The Bible is clear. There is only ONE Biblical method of baptism. Let us ope...
Does the United States of American have a role in Bible Prophecy? There can be little doubt God was involved in the founding of the United States of America. The Founders knew it and they proclaimed it to the whole world. Even the currency says, “In God we trust.” This nation has declared that it would stand on principles cherished by God himself. But could it be that one day these principles might be challenged and come under attack?
Revelation’s Rapture! The subject is one of the most discussed in Christianity. And it is also one of the most misunderstood. In this lesson, we will open God’s Word and see what the Bible says about Jesus’ 2nd Coming. There are many different opinions about the manner of Jesus' 2nd Coming, but we are not here to discuss 'opinion". We will reveal what God's Word tells us about Jesus' 2nd Coming!
Is hell a hot spot in the center of the earth? Are millions suffering there right now? Would a loving God torture people in hell for millions of years? Let’s see what the Bible really says about hell and we will discover something far more amazing than a desolate location called hell on the Cayman Islands.
How many of you have ever heard of the term “millennium” in the context of the Bible? The scriptures describe this time as an awakening. And this time when we wake up, we will never go to sleep again. This is perhaps the most hopeful thing in the Bible. This time we will not be living in time, we will be living in eternity. It’s generally believed the Millennium will be a time of peace, prosperity, and plenty, when the saints will reign with Christ. In Revelation chapter 20, Jesus draws back the...
What does the Bible say about what happens when we die? What really happens at death? The question of what really happens at death has a solid Biblical answer. The Bible gives us dependable answers to the question— “What happens when you die?” It reveals not only what happens when you die, but also how to face death with new hope and confidence.
In this lesson, we’re going to look at a message of tremendous importance that came to this planet from beyond the stars. We’re going to discover that God has given a message to this world for these last days of history. That message is the book of Revelation, a book that focuses on Jesus. The Bible says the everlasting gospel (or the eternal, or final gospel) is proclaimed in the book of Revelation. This is the last message from God, the last gospel message that goes to the world.
Could it be that a tradition like one of these long held ideas has slipped into the Christian church? Is it possible that many have accepted falsehood in the place of truth and very few people today question it? Is it possible that today–just as in Christ’s time–that His church could be setting aside a commandment of God to follow a tradition of man instead? A tradition so old that almost no one knows how it started. A tradition nearly all Christians accept, thinking they are following God’s law...
Does God have an eternal sign? Did He leave us a symbol of His creative authority? What is this sign, and what is its importance? In this lesson, we will learn about this sign and importance for everyone, especially at the end of times.
In our previous meeting we studied about three urgent messages that are given to the world immediately before Christ returns the second time. The first of those messages is in Revelation 14:6,7. The first angel’s message tells us about the Final Judgment. Does God have a plan to bring peace to a sin fallen world?
For many people, the Bible may be confusing. Mysterious symbols, strange signs, prophecies and parables. But God did not intend the Bible to be a mysterious language. He didn’t intend that the prophecies of the Bible and the book of Revelation be a code that nobody could crack. God wants us to come to the Bible and understand what it says. But when you come to the book of Revelation, it is God's intention to bless you and guide you and lead you so that you can understand what it is that he has p...
In this lesson, we are going to sweep aside the curtain and look at what is really going on in the universe. We will discover a cosmic conflict beyond our wildest imagination. The book of Revelation describes an ominous power that will come and bring spiritual distress to planet Earth. We also see that the battle of Armageddon will take place and the seven last plagues will fall on the earth. Why is there evil in this world? Is there a war waging today that many people are not aware of? Once aga...
Is the Bible true? Can you believe Bible? What if I told you the Bible prophecy predicted world events centuries before they occurred? In order to understand Bible prophecy, you need the key to unlocking those prophecies. In this lesson, we will discover, from the Word of God, the master key that unlocks all Bible prophecies. You will seen that the Bible is true, and its source can only be God.
What is going on in the world today, and does the Bible speak of events that are happening today? Are we living in times today that are foretold of in Bible prophecy? In this lesson, we are going to discuss what the Bible tells us about the times leading up to Jesus’ return and compare it to events unfolding before our very eyes!
Jesus says, “Beware of false prophets.” If there are false prophets, could that be because the true gift of prophecy is part of God’s true church today? No one counterfeits something that doesn’t have an original. If there is a counterfeit, there must true prophets. What does Jesus tell us about prophets and how do we know who is true and who is false?
In the word of God, we are told that God’s church would come back from the wilderness. What does the Bible teach about discovering God’s truth for today? Does God have a church on earth today that is solidly grounded on the Bible? There certainly is a hunger for genuine Christianity in the hearts of thousands. There is a longing for something more than they have. That hunger isn’t merely for a church; that hunger is for a Bible-believing people. That hunger is for the living Christ and His truth...
