Why There Is Division? Foundational Problems 2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2Ti 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. 2Ti 2:17 And their word will eat as doth a canker:...

Take Off the Training Wheels
Taking a trip down “memory lane” can be quite the trip, indeed. Sometimes that trip can be good. Sometimes bad. We’ve all been down that road before. One such trip is going back to a time of learning how to ride a bicycle. To make thkngs simple, we’ll look at three phases: The Tricycle With... Continue Reading →
The Everlasting Gospel
At the midway point of the Tribulation, the antichrist establishes his global kingdom. How does he do that? After the Abomination of Desolation, he’ll be the most feared man on the planet. The Abomination of Desolation is more than just the dragon pouring out his fury onto the people of Israel, but it also sends... Continue Reading →
One Nation Under God
Have you ever wondered about some of the terms that we have used throughout the years, such as, “One nation under God,” and “God’s Country?” It’s election time once again, and we are sure to hear these phrases to prop up America, even placing it in “Most Favored Nation” status by God! I am as... Continue Reading →
21 Hermeneutical Principles
1 - Hermeneutics is Simple The first principle is that hermeneutics is simple. You don’t need to take a college course on hermeneutics. You don’t need to read a pile of academic textbooks on hermeneutics. You don’t need a scholar listing a bunch of theories so you can understand how to study your Bible. Hermeneutics...

Rise of the Antichrist
You may recall an older article on the four beasts of Daniel 7 and that the fourth beast was the antichrist. We’re told he’s dreadful and terrible. He will make all the people of the world feel a range of emotions anywhere from fear to absolute terror. He is strong exceedingly, strong in every sense... Continue Reading →
How Can The Church Be “Of The Same Mind?”
Rom.15:5] Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus: [6] That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. With any organization or business, being on the ‘same page’ is vital to the overall... Continue Reading →
Gatekeepers of the Grace Message
You may have heard about the hullabaloo online last week. A very sweet saint posted a David Reid video on her timeline on Facebook. The new editor of the Berean Searchlight decided to leave this comment: “I’d be careful; KJV Only groups are very cultish. I’ve heard him say that you are an idiot if... Continue Reading →
Properly Adorning The Armour Of God
Eph.6:10] Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. [11] Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. In the military, soldiers adorn their ‘combat gear’ on a daily basis, and even though they are not... Continue Reading →
Second Hand News?
The problem with so many "so called" doctrines is that they are based on a single meaning of words which actually have different meanings. Words such as "elect," "baptism," and "church" are blindly given one blanket meaning, based on presumptions, which are based on theological traditions. Context is Key, and King, in defining words in... Continue Reading →
Faith Strength Courage
Throughout Bible history, God always called upon His people to be strong, be of good courage, and have no fear. The Jews, when they reached the promised land saw the giants and after all the miracles God performed to free them, they refused to trust in God, and they all demanded to go back to...

The False Prophet
Rev 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. Rev 13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast,... Continue Reading →
666
666 is, arguably, one of the most symbolically rich numbers in the Bible. Bullinger would write, “666 is very far-reaching, and is filled with a meaning deeper, perhaps, than anything we have yet discovered. One thing, however, is certain, and that is, that the triple 6 marks the culmination of man's opposition to God in... Continue Reading →
Vessels To Honor & Vessels To Dishonor
2nd Tim.2:20] But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. [21] If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use,... Continue Reading →
The Secret Place
Psa. 91:1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. Is this not a fascinating verse? "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." That's amazing! Does this verse remind you of anything... Continue Reading →
Being Made Perfect By The Spirit
Gal.3:1] O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? [2] This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? [3] Are ye... Continue Reading →
A Well Worn Path
Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. - Psalm 16:11 A trip down memory lane. My recollection some years later is of a flat rock, that was just outside of the boundary of a ball field. This was... Continue Reading →
Renewing Your Mind
Rom 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

Paul’s “Fear” For Godliness Sake For The Saint
2Cor.11:3] But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. [4] For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or... Continue Reading →
The Two Witnesses
You might recall that in the first half of the Tribulation, there are two sets of seven judgments, 14 judgments of God in the first 3 ½ years of the Tribulation - the seals and the trumpets. The seventh trumpet is a big deal. The seventh trumpet is blown at the midway point. The seventh... Continue Reading →
