What is Grace?
(Copyright 2022) by David Antion (Pasadena, California) Is there any word more misunderstood and abused and perverted than this word “grace?” Yet it is one of the most important words in the Bible. For this reason, I want to feature this topic in our Search the Scriptures emails. The English word “grace” is always a translation of the Greek word “charis”. However, the Greek word is used over 170 times but not all of those times translated as “grace.” It is translated in several other ways that we shall see. The primary meaning seems to denote a […]

Bullocks and the Feast of Tabernacles
(Copyright) by BibleStudy.org (Farmington, Michigan) In Numbers 29:12-39 we find that for the seven days of the Feast of Tabernacles there is a daily sacrifice of bulls (the KJV calls them bullocks). Thirteen bullocks are offered on the first day (which is a high sabbath), twelve bullocks on the second day and so on, decreasing daily in number until seven bullocks on the seventh day for a total of seventy. On the eighth day, called the Last Great Day (a high sabbath), only one bullock is offered. God’s plan for mankind is symbolized by the Holy Days. The Feast of Tabernacles […]
Judaism in Jesus’ Day
(Copyright 2022) by Rich Traver (Clifton, Colorado) The Common Idea is that the Jewish Religion, in the time when Jesus walked the Earth and conducted His ministry, was generally Monocultural. That most if not all Jews believed, taught and practiced the same. Yet, in the New Testament it’s evident that there were Significant Differences among the varying Jewish Persuasions! A significant number of incidents involving Jesus as He interacted with the Jewish leadership – most of the time very negatively – leaves the impression that He spent much time in the Jerusalem area engaging with the religious leaders. In addition to […]

A Person of Faith Explains “Dark Matter”
(Copyright) by Eddie Hyatt (Grapevine, Texas) Along with being a devout follower of Jesus Christ and committed to proclaiming and teaching His word, I have a deep interest in science, particularly astronomy. I have, therefore, read with interest recent articles about the discoveries of the Hubble and James Webb space telescopes. One area that has caught my attention is what astronomers are calling “Dark Matter.” Simply speaking, Dark Matter is an unseen force that is holding the universe together. It cannot be seen, and astronomers don’t know what it is, but they say it is keeping the universe from flying apart. For […]
Not Under the Law
(Copyright 2023) by Darwin Lee (Bismarck, North Dakota) Just what did the apostle Paul mean when he said, “for you are not under the law”? Ro 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. Romans 6:14 starts with “Sin shall not have dominion over you”. Why, because we are “under grace”. How does sin have dominion over a person? Ro 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Without grace death is certain, therefore sin would have […]
Cleansing Ourselves from Hidden Sins
(Copyright 2022) by Zac Poonen (Bangalore, India) It is very easy for a believer to be ignorant of his true spiritual condition if he does not live before God’s face. This is clear from the rebukes that the Lord gave to the leaders of the seven churches in Revelation. To the messenger (elder) of the church in Laodicea, he said, “You do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked” (Rev. 3:17). “Everything that is in Jesus is ours – all His purity, all His goodness, all His patience, all His humility etc.” God allows different situations to arise in our […]
The Most Significant Event?
(Copyright 2009) by John Jewell (London, England) Checking the television listings on Sunday to see if there just happened to be anything worthwhile to watch, I was struck by a program title. It was “Christianity: A History” – it was being presented by Dr Robert Beckford. The TV listing had a comment about the program, it said that when the Roman Empire collapsed, a new chapter began in the history of Britain that was more significant than the Reformation, the Magna Carta and the Battle of Hastings combined – or so claimed Dr. Robert Beckford. Well, I thought, that’s quite […]

The Silence That Shouts
(Copyright) by Pamela Walford (Canada) “Dismembering the concubine’s body and sending parts to each of the 12 tribes was intended to awaken Israel from its moral lethargy and to marshal the tribes to face up to their responsibility. It is ironic that the one who issued such a call was himself selfish and insensitive. See also Saul’s similar action in 1 Sa 11:7” (Barker 355). For many women, the rape and murder of the Levite’s concubine in Judges 19 and her subsequent dismemberment is among the most horrifying of all biblical narratives, particularly since God appears to be blatantly silent about […]
Pterosaurs
(Copyright) by Jerry Bergman (Powder Springs, Georgia) Among the strangest animals ever createdThere are no viable examples in the fossil record of ‘preflight’ animals (before flight was perfected) leading up to the pterosaurs—or any other flying creature for that matter. Pterosaurs (‘winged lizards’) are some of the strangest animals God ever created. They are classified as reptiles but looked more like birds. They had beaks—some of the weirdest-looking in the animal kingdom. Like other reptiles, many had sharp-pointed teeth and comparatively long tails. Unlike most reptiles, however, many believe they were warm-blooded, a feature shared with birds and mammals. And the epidermal scales characteristic of […]
Memories of a one-room country school (REAL education)
(Copyright 2022) by Curtis Dahlgren (Stephenson, Michigan) “A powerful, radical left-wing clerisy is bent on destroying what every past generation would have understood to be the central purpose of education – that is, allowing (in the words of Edmund Burke) individuals to ‘avail themselves of the general bank and capital of nations, and of ages.’” – Lady Margaret Thatcher IN his first inaugural address, James Monroe said, “Had the people of the United States been educated in different principles, had they been less intelligent, less independent, or less virtuous, can it be believed that we should have maintained the same steady […]
The Woman Flees
(Copyright) by Dwight Fleming (Oroville, California) Jesus warned His disciples, “When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that the desolation is near. Let them which are in Judea FLEE to the mountains, and let them in the center of it depart out; . . . For these are the days of vengeance to fulfill all things that have been written” (Luke 21:20-22). This is obviously describing a time of Great Tribulation as mentioned in the Olivet prophecy of Matthew 24. Who will need to flee in order to escape the devastation of an advancing army? And from which city? Those […]
“Between the Two Evenings”
(Copyright 2023) by Fellow Servants (Minneapolis, Minnesota) God accounts days to begin at sunset. Gen. 1:5 Lev. 23:4, “These are the feasts of the Lord, holy convocations which you shall proclaim at their appointed times.” v. 5, “On the fourteenth day of the first month at twilight is the Lord’s Passover.” Important to remember when God accounts for days to begin. Do you begin keeping the Sabbath at noon-6 p.m.? Ex. 12:6, killing of the sheep/goats on the 14th at twilight (dusk). Between dusk and darkness is “between the 2 evenings”. Note: The sun is set (1st evening) but when dark (2nd evening). v. […]

3 Reasons You Shouldn’t Marry Them
(Copyright 2022) by David Rives (Lewisburg, Tennessee) Yes, you read the title correctly. To introduce the topic of this discussion, I would like to begin by stating that there are many instances in early Biblical history of people marrying closely related family. Based on Biblical text it doesn’t seem to be a big deal. If we take the Bible literally at its word, this practice would have been necessary just after Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden, and then again immediately following the Genesis Flood. However, in the book of Leviticus 18:6 things appear to have changed. It states: “None of you […]
What About Repentance Anyway?
(Copyright 2004) by Wayne Schatzle (West Chester, Ohio) If you would ask 10 different people: what does the word, “repentance” mean? You may get 10 different answers. Nowadays the term “repentance” is relegated to comic strips, with the little bearded guy holding a sign saying, “Repent, the end is near”. Although repentance is indeed an important element in the salvation process, modern churches have distilled the salvation message to simply: “Jesus, I give you my heart” and presto chango I am in the Kingdom. This is a popular formula for salvation because it is easy and doesn’t interfere with our […]
What does the Bible say about abortion?
(Copyright) by BibleStudy.org (Farmington, Michigan) Abortion is the murder of a potential human being who resides in the womb. What Scripture says about it has deeper spiritual consequences than society realizes. Each pregnancy is a miracle, made possible so that another human being has the potential of becoming one of God’s sons or daughters and inheriting eternal life. The great sin of abortion is that it is man’s attempt to thwart God’s plans for a large family. Part of the human (not the Bible) rationale for supporting abortion is that what is in the womb is not a person. Since it is […]

“And the Earth Helped the Woman”

As this generation approaches what has been called “the end of this present age”, Satan is described as being in a state of panic, knowing that he has but a short time remaining. That awareness would leave us with the realization that desperation would ensue and that he would do all in his power to effect chaos and […]

Pruning Season
(Copyright 2023) by Dwight Fleming (Oroville, California) We are told to “examine ourselves” before taking the Passover. Jesus said that He is the vine and we are the branches and His Father is the husbandman (John 15:1-5). The husbandman’s job is to make the vine more fruitful. This involves watering, fertilizing, and PRUNING. This pruning or cutting process may be painful but necessary. We are also being shaped as a stone to fit in God’s house. This shaping or cutting is not easy but necessary to shape us to fulfill God’s purpose. A recent email from Lance Wallnau discusses this process that […]
are the shepherds safeguarding the lives of the sheep?
(Copyright) by Catherine C. Kroeger (Brewster, Massachusetts) Only yesterday I was told of a Christian woman who escaped a viciously cruel marriage and went to consult her pastor. The man of God, wishing to restore domestic peace and harmony, sent the fearful congregant back to her home along with his well-meant prayers and good advice. Two days later the woman was dead, slain by the hand of her husband. Only weeks before a similar tragedy had been played out in a neighboring parish. Although the pastor had intended to reestablish the marital union, his guidance had led to its permanent […]
Circumcision of the Heart
(Copyright 2022) by Zac Poonen (Bangalore, India) Many old covenant rituals have a fulfilment in the new covenant. Circumcision was a very important ritual under the old covenant. Surely, such an important ritual must have a significant spiritual meaning in the new covenant – and it does. “God wants us to be circumcised in heart so that we can love Him with all our heart.” Its meaning is described for us in Philippians 3:3, 4: “We are the true circumcision who worship in the Spirit of God, glory in Christ Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh”. These three expressions are […]
Pigs Might Fly!
(Copyright 2012) by John Jewell (London, England) A not uncommon saying in Britain is “pigs might fly!” — in other words, this or that will probably never happen just as pigs won’t develop wings and fly! I had such an experience the other day as I was reading one of my morning newspapers. The heading read “Evolution does not mean there isn’t a God, says Attenborough.” My immediate reaction was to blink my eyes and think “Can this be the Attenborough we all in Britain know?” Who, along with other notable atheists has consistently denied God and the Creation.

America’s Divine Destiny

Yet Abraham’s progeny would become as the sand of […]

Why American Christians have a Moral Obligation to Vote in this Election
(Copyright 2022) by Eddie Hyatt (Grapevine, Texas) In Matthew 5:13-16, Jesus called His followers the “salt of the earth” and the “light of the world.” These are metaphoric expressions of the positive influence He expects His followers to have on the world in which they live. The value of salt in Jesus’ day was its use as a preservative to keep meat from spoiling. Light dispels darkness, a figure of speech for ignorance and falsehood. We fulfill these words of Jesus through our words, deeds, and prayers. We also fulfill these words by being good citizens and voting for government leaders whose lives […]

Pentecost: Sunday, Monday, or Sivan 6?
(Copyright 2008) by Bryan T. Huie (Dennard, Arkansas) Pentecost, also called the Feast of Weeks (Heb. Chag Shavuot), the Feast of Harvest (Heb. Chag haQatzir), and the Day of Firstfruits (Heb. Yom haBikurim) in the Old Testament, is the only Holy Day which wasn’t designated to fall on a particular day of the month. Pentecost, which means “count fifty” in Greek, was to be determined by counting fifty days from the time the wave sheaf was offered during the Feast of Unleavened Bread. That sounds simple enough, but the difficulty that arises is when to start and end the count. Almost […]
Colossians 2:16-17
(Copyright) by Dwight Fleming (Oroville, California) Colossians 2:16-17 reads: “Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of a holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.” These two verses have caused much controversy among various church groups and individual believers. For some, these two verses support keeping the Holydays and the Sabbath, while for others, it is proof that we no longer have to worry about such “Jewish practices.” Why? Because they were only SHADOWS while Christ is the […]

I Will Bring Evil Upon This Place
(Copyright 2023) by Christian Media (Email) “I WILL BRING EVIL UPON THIS PLACE” — Jeremiah 19:3 Since a large percentage of Americans don’t understand the Biblical concept of evil, an enormous number of people simply cannot believe our own leaders have intentionally released the Bioweapon masquerading as a Vaccine upon us. Yet the evidence is overwhelming, as the above humorous cartoon shows, and the powers in charge still continue to push the deadly shots to the world. “A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished” – Proverbs 27:12. This short-sighted vision even extends to […]
Jesus Our Shepherd

The good shepherd lays down his life for his sheep.” In John 10, Jesus described many attributes of a good shepherd. Joel P.

On my grandfather’s headstone is a quote from Psalm 23:1, “The LORD is my shepherd.” That quote has always given me comfort. So, I found this video by Joel […]
Encouragement
(Copyright 2016) by James Steinle (Swanville, Minnesota) In these days where we see so many things in the news that can discourage us and make us sad, we can sometimes use encouragement. It is helpful to be able to see the Big Picture at these times. Thankfully there is much in the Scriptures to help us counter such potential impact on our emotions. Of course those who may be oblivious to what is going on in the environment, the financial world, the political and the religious world may be an exception; but many see how mankind does not know the way […]
Is the big bang really scientific?
(Copyright 2019) by Dominic Statham (Powder Springs, Georgia) According to most text books promoting evolutionary beliefs, the universe came into existence around 14 billion years ago. Supposedly, it began as a singularity, an unimaginably hot ‘point’ into which was compressed all the matter and energy now making up the billions of galaxies found throughout space. Following the big bang, this singularity started to expand and cool, enabling quarks and electrons to form, these being the building blocks of atoms. As the universe continued to cool, quarks combined to form protons and neutrons. These then combined to produce ‘light elements’, namely […]
Slowly Sinking
(Copyright 2022) by Joseph B. Baity (Charlotte, North Carolina) Historians commonly refer to the twentieth century as the American Century, mostly due to the overwhelming might of the United States military and its ever-increasing potential to impact the global geopolitics of the day. Prior to World War II, however, the U.S. was considered a regional power, with little political will to project itself militarily across the Atlantic or the Pacific oceans. Without that will, most observers deemed the U.S. too weak or too disinterested to match the rising Axis powers of Germany, Japan, and Italy. But the Japanese attack on Pearl […]
The Profound Prophetic Meaning of One Third!
(Copyright) by BibleStudy.org (Farmington, Michigan) What is the possible prophetic meaning of one third (1/3 or 33%)? How does the greatest concentration of this number in the Bible reveal its startling and profound symbolism? A unique repetition of the number one third is found in Revelation 8. In this prophetic chapter, within only six verses (7 to 12), the word “third” (part of a whole or 1/3) is recorded eleven times in the King James translation. The last verse in this set contains this rational fractional designation five times! It is utilized two additional times in chapter 9 with its final […]
