Miracle of One
(Copyright 04-28-2018) by Richard Frates (Easly, South Carolina) There will never be another you! That reality is why death is so fearful. There will never be another me or you. It is evident to all that the future guarantees we will all turn to dust and fade into darkness; the memory of you will be extinguished. But those who believe God and salvation through the Son of God, will always be remembered. Proverbs 14:32 “Even in death the righteous have a refuge.” Psalm 116:15 “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. The Miracle of One […]
The Number One Problem No One Wants to Talk About
(Copyright 2006) by Richard Markland (London, Ohio) When my wife, Linda, died in 2005, a number of things changed in my life. The area I am more aware of is the number one problem facing the country when it comes to health. Linda weighed 50 lbs. when she died as a result of colon cancer. It was a slow agonizing death, and I am still coming to terms with it to this day. It has been a life altering experience and has made me more aware of cause and effect when it comes to disease and physical health. The one area Linda […]
One Lamb in the Morning & One at Evening
(Copyright) by Nicholas Charcharos (United Kingdom) At this time of the year the thoughts of the Christian are often on the death of our Lord Jesus and one attempts for some moments at least to reflect upon the hours on the cross, the pain and getting to the point of death. Mark, the first of the gospels to be written records (15:25) “it was the third hour, and they crucified him”. This is a plain statement from someone who it seems likely lived around Jerusalem and watched the events in real time. From verse 33 of the same chapter its clear […]
Elmer Fisher – one of the first members of the Radio/Worldwide Church of God
(Copyright) by Craig White (Australia) I have now included some information on Elmer and Margret Fisher who HWA mentions a number of times in his Autobiography: https://www.friendsofsabbath.org/iframe/ABC/Pioneers&Researchers/Fishers/Fishers.html This link also mentions a Bobby Fisher referred to in a Good News magazine – she came to a HWA campaign in 1934 and to a GTA campaign 13-14 Dec 1974 (Good News, March 1975, p. 24): “That evening Mr. Armstrong spoke to another capacity crowd. Among those sitting in the audience was a veteran of many early campaigns, Mrs. Bobby Fisher. Forty years earlier, in December 1934, Mrs. Fisher, then a teenager, sat in a […]
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 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 […]
How are God the Father and Yeshua One?
(Copyright 2008) by Bryan T. Huie (Dennard, Arkansas) To most Jews, including many Messianics, the nature of God is defined in the Shema: DEUTERONOMY 6:4 ” Hear [shema’], O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one [echad]! (NKJV) Messianics apply this understanding of the oneness of God to a confusing statement by Yeshua recorded in the tenth chapter of John’s Gospel. In response to the Jews’ request to confirm that he was the prophesied Messiah (John 10:24), Yeshua stated: JOHN 10:30 “I and the Father are one [hen].” (NASU) What did he mean by this declaration? Was Yeshua here applying the Shema […]
A Big Lie of One Scripture
(Copyright) by Darwin Lee (Bismarck, North Dakota) One prevalent lie of a particular scripture held by almost all of humanity, (except the few) throughout most all nations, if not all, is the lie about Gen. 3:16. All readers reading this article know well what the lie is. Except most do not recognize that it is a giant of a lie. That lie has been woven into the fabric of most of humanity for six thousand years now, that men-husbands are to rule over his wife. In general, men believe they are to rule over the inferior to them, women. A huge swath […]
“One is Taken and the Other Left…”
(Copyright) by Rich Traver (Clifton, Colorado) In this season which focuses on the Second Coming of Christ and the establishment of the millennial Kingdom of God on Earth, there’s a corresponding belief system that will impact vast numbers of sincere believers. In the past, there was an event that shook the foundations of what we know as the fundamentalist persuasion. Are we about to see a similar repeat of that spiritual earthquake just ahead? A century and three quarters ago, an anticipation of an imminent event gripped a major segment of the religious world here in the United States. That supposedly pending […]
HEY JUDE (the real one) and the sermon notes of Enoch, seventh from Adam
(Copyright) by Curtis Dahlgren (Stephenson, Michigan) “According to the Oxford English Dictionary’s first definition, a ‘skeptic’ is ‘one who holds that there are no adequate grounds for certainty as to the truth of any proposition whatever.’” – Michael Shermer of Skeptic magazine, quoted in Time magazine, last spring “If Truth were dead, how would you know THAT?” – C. Dahlgren, 2017 THINGS JUST GET CURIOUSER AND CURIOUSER (to coin a phrase). “Claim” is a favorite media word. If traditionalists “claim” something, it must be fake news, but if “Progressives” write something, the media and pop culture do not treat THEM skeptically. Shermer cites The Miracle Myth, a 2016 book by a University […]
No One Knows The Day
Dwight Fleming (Oroville, California) Jesus Christ warned His followers to be watching for the signs of His return lest they be caught unprepared and miss out on the Resurrection. Concerning the time of His return, notice: “No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. … Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will come. But understand this: If the homeowner had known in which hour the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house […]
One Flaw in Women
Sent by Rich Daniels (Shawano, Wisconsin) Women have strengths that amaze men. They bear hardships and they carry burdens, but they hold happiness, love and joy. They smile when they want to scream. They sing when they want to cry. They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous. They fight for what they believe in. They stand up to injustice. They don’t take “no” for an answer when they believe there is a better solution. They go without so their family can have. They go to the doctor with a frightened friend. They love unconditionally. They […]
Let No One Deceive You
by Richard T. Ritenbaugh (Charlotte, North Carolina) As Daniel 12:4 predicts, we live in a time of increasing knowledge. Data flows constantly around the globe, facilitated by communications satellites, the Internet, television and radio, newspapers and magazines, telephones, pagers, and a host of other means and methods. This rapid—indeed, almost instantaneous—flow of information makes possible the doubling of man’s knowledge in just a few years rather than the decades it used to take. Having such a sea of information available at the touch of a key or the click of a mouse makes some people uneasy. They may like being able to get […]
One Small Step
by John Jewell (London, England) THAT’S ONE SMALL STEP FOR MAN! ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND! are the words uttered by Neil Armstrong as his left foot touched the surface of the Moon on 21st July 1969, as he stepped down from the Eagle landing craft which he had piloted and guided from the mother ship Columbia accompanied by Ed (Buzz) Aldrin, one of the two other crew members who had brought Columbia along with Eagle from their base at Houston in Texas.
