When did Israel become God’s Chosen People? How did that come about? Before Israel was a nation, God dealt directly with all peoples of the world. From the time of Adam and Eve’s banishing from the Garden of Eden, the Lord was known by men and present in his affairs. From the point at which…

Isaiah 40:18 – To Whom Will You Liken God?
A full page ad in our complimentary copy of The Epoch Times caught my eye. The top half displayed the name Shen Yun and a beautiful Chinese dancer in mid-leap. The text below the fold said: “China Before Communism.” It went on to mysteriously say: China was once called “Land of the Divine.” There was…
Ephesians 2:2 – The Sons of Disobedience
The extent to which dark spiritual forces influence the world isn’t well understood. Most Christians acknowledge that the enemy, Satan, our adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour (1 Peter 5:8). Because the Bible places so much emphasis on Satan – which is certainly not unjustified – few people…
Ephesians 1:9 – The Mystery of His Will
In Scripture, we’re told that there are multiple mysteries of God. The classic definition of a Biblical mystery is that it’s something which is concealed in the Old Testament and revealed in the New. One of the most amazing mysteries to which we’re introduced in the Bible is the joining of Jews and Gentiles into…
1 Corinthians 15:24 – Then Comes the End
Can you imagine life without death? Such a day is coming. Because Christ lived, died, and rose again, the end of death is a reality otherwise impossible. It’s been rightly said that the entirety of the Christian faith rests on the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He is an historical figure. He was a man wise…
1 Corinthians 7:23 – Do Not Become Slaves of Men
An interesting dynamic has taken hold in the world that echoes ancient times. It revolves around who is the master and who is the servant. God is the grand creator; all beings have come forth from His creative Word. As such, He alone is the master of all. However, since the very beginning, those who…
1 Corinthians 2:8 – Rulers of This Age
Those who oppose God inevitably believe they are smarter than Him. They devise plans that oppose His will and think that He doesn’t see and know them. This is part of their foolishness. If the Lord knows how many hairs each of us has on our heads (Luke 12:7), then might He not also know…
Romans 15:4 – Written For Our Instruction
God gives us His Word – the entire Word – for a reason. There may be parts of Scripture where we wonder what it’s doing in there or how it applies to us, but for someone, somehow, it does pertain, so it’s all useful. Paul’s letter to the Romans variously addressed both the Jewish believers…
Psalm 94:13 – Until A Pit Is Dug
One of the many truths the psalms teach us is the glory and majesty of the Lord. They exalt Him above every other god and show us that only through Him do we have any hope. We learn that other spiritual beings have pretensions of replacing God, and that through their demonic influence, man…
Awaken Bible Prophecy Update 8-11-21: Puppet Master Conspiracy
By now we should be able to put to rest the lie concerning COVID and the so-called vaccine that those who don’t believe the government narrative are conspiracy theorists. When we look at the big picture, there’s obviously something going on. When literally every government leader around the world; the major medical authorities worldwide such…
