Is This A Real Vision Of Hell? A Picture Of Hades? Does The Book Of Revelation Support It? By: Roger Himes | - You will find this a very unusual vision of life after death - not in heaven, but in hell. It is a picture of hell - a picture of Hades. It's not like the Dante Hell - and the pictures of hell that he depicts. Where is hell? It doesn't answer this question - but then, in my mind, that's a moot point.

The Faithfulness Of Jesus To God The Father By: Denny Smith | - Hebrews 3:1-2 reads as follows: "Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the apostle and high priest of our confession, Christ Jesus, who was faithful to him who appointed him, as Moses also was faithful in all his house." (NKJV)
Reading this passage and its surrounding context awhile back got me to thinking about the faithfulness of Jesus. We seldom think about Jesus being "faithful," that is in the sense of being faithful to God, even though we know ... Tags:faithfulness of Jesus, faithfulness, faithful, godhead, God
First Name Terms: Elizabeth Genealogy By: Chris Barber | - In English, Elizabeth is pronounced: i-LIZ-e-beth. Ελισαβετ is written Greek Cyrillic form, from which the English name is taken. Elizabeth is one of the most archaic feminine names, yet incredibly popular throughout history and still today. Originally, it's an Old Testament name, written in Hebrew. This was transcribed into Greek. It means "I swear in God's name."
You Must Be Born Again! By: benj4yafgr | - THE SECRET DISCIPLE BY NIGHT
In the 3rd chapter of John, Nicodemus (a high ranking Pharisee ruler; and secret disciple of Jesus [19:38-42]) first visited Jesus in the cloak of night. The first thing Jesus said in verse 3, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. At the time, the Kingdom of God (in all the Gospels) was a futuristic event right up there with the Day of Judgment. But many Christians erroneously believe it is interchangeable with the Kingdom of Heave ...

There is a great misconception about a Christian having self esteem. Some Christians tend to see the Christian race as overbearing and very conservative, thereby thinking the Christian should be as lowly as john the Baptist, refusing all other good aspect of Life. In most cases, this results to a low self esteem in relation to the real world and the environment surrounding them. Others on the other hand, tend to focus so much on God's promises thereby over hyping their status as Ch ...

The Wicked Shall Be Turned Into Hell By: Denny Smith | - David, in Psalms 9:17, made this statement: "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God." (NKJV) That is strong, strong language and language people do not want to hear. Some would probably call it hate speech. People do not want to hear about hell and many reject God because of the concept of hell as taught in the Bible. I suspect it is highly likely many who look at what I write from time to time will pass by this article just because of the title. God is n ...

Hell And A Root Canal By: Dale Haven Cox | - There are few things worse to anticipate than the dentist. Once when I was a kid, my mother sent me to the dentist alone. Big mistake. I never went. I trembled like a rat in a store front two blocks away as the appointment passed. I couldnt make those final steps into his dreaded presence. A dentist can make the mightiest of men wonder why they have even been born. On the other hand, there are people out there who handle a dentist like a horse tail flicking away a fly. They are oblivious to f ... Tags:Root canal, fear of dentists, Shop of Horrors, Johnny Carson

Ford County By John Grisham By: Prasoon Kumar | - It is a short story collection from John Grisham, a renowned writer who has already sold numerous copies of legal thriller books. He is still at the peak of his writing life, and is a devout Baptist as well. He is also a dedicated baseball fan, and has practiced law in a small town of Mississippi for about a decade. He also has some experience of doing missionary work in Brazil. He is the only writer who can be read without any embarrassment in any social circle, including planes, because his st ...

Paul's Conversion "€" Justified By Faith By: Denny Smith | - The conversion of Saul of Tarsus, who was soon to be known as Paul the apostle, is one of the most interesting accounts of conversion to Christianity found in the Bible. One can read about Paul's conversion in 3 different accounts given in the book of Acts Acts 9:1-19, 22:1-16, 26:9-20. Saul of Tarsus was one of the really bad men we read about in the New Testament which makes his conversion even more dramatic. How bad a man was Saul?

The Need for an Uncompromising and Vigilant Witness Against Arminianism
By William MacLean
"Warnings from the pulpit and denunciation of the errors of Arminianism are not now heard as once they were. Even in pulpits where the truth is preached, it is to be feared that, in some cases, a faithful witness is not raised against Arminianism. The cause of this may be due in a measure to the fact that in defending the cause of ... Tags:Arminianism, Reformed Faith, John Wesley, D. L. Moody, Billy Graham, Faith Mission
The Role Of Kids' Bible Curriculum In The Christian Faith By: Kenneth Taylor. | - There is perhaps no document or writing that is more important to a Christian than the Bible. It represents the words and teachings of God through the prophets. It is a tool to teach people the way to become true Christians and to be truly closer to God. It also chronicles the life of Jesus Christ as well as his teachings.
In this chapter the apostle does two things: First, he shows what is not and what is the Law's relation to the believer--judicially, the believer is emancipated from the curse or penalty of the Law (7:1-6); morally, the believer is under bonds to obey the Law (vv. 22, 25). Secondly , he guards against a false inference being drawn from what he had taught in chapter 6. In 6:1- ...

When Did Obedience Become Legalism? By: Denny Smith | - We seem to be living in a time in the present Christian era where people seem to feel that all that matters in Christianity is love and Gods grace, that obedience is simply legalism, and that people do not have to obey Bible commands for salvation (except, of course, for the command to believe in Jesus as the Savior).
Grace is made cheap. Live as you like, call yourself a Christian, and Gods grace will cover you. It is said it is what is in the heart (generally defined as th ... Tags:obedience, legalism, God, grace, love, iniquity, commandment
The Mysterious Eloquent Evangelist By: Denny Smith | - There are a lot of mysterious characters mentioned in the Bible we would like to know a lot more about than we do. Apollos, the eloquent evangelist, ranks right up there near the top among such New Testament characters. However, the fact that we know but little about him could be said equally of most of the apostles. The thing that makes Apollos mysterious is what we do know about him.
The Importance of Biblical Doctrine: A Covenanter Testimony Against New Evangelicalism

Within a few hundred years after the time of Christ, the forces of Antichrist were wreaking havoc in the church. All kinds of man-made innovations were introduced in the government and worship of the church, and the message of salvation by faith alone faded from sight.

Covenanting: Distinguishing Practice of our Reforming Ancestors
Nothing so much distinguished our ancestors, as their public covenanting with God. Divinely assured, that, in the days of Moses, Joshua, Asa, Joash, Josiah, and Nehemiah, the Hebrews had, with his approbation, thus dedicated themselves and their seed to the Lord. Convinced that public covenanting is no where, in the sacred page, represented as a ceremonial service, and so mus ...

The New Birth - Most Have It All Wrong By: Denny Smith | - Jesus said to Nicodemus in John 3:3 (NASU), "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God" and then a couple of verses later (John 3:5 NASU) clarifies his statement when he says, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."
This passage has greatly troubled people over the years to the extent that many have just come to accept that which is religiously correct (political cor ... Tags:new birth, water and spirit, spirit, water, baptized,
What Does The Phrase "born Of Water And The Spirit" Mean?

How Does The Blood Of Jesus And Baptism Tie Together? By: Denny Smith | - I know of no one who claims to be a Christian but what believes we are saved by the blood of Jesus. All believe that for the Bible clearly teaches it stating it plainly - "we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins." (Eph 1:7 NKJV) There are very few, however, who realize where God has placed that blood spiritually speaking.
Christianity is a religion of the spirit. No man is saved by coming into physical contact with the blood of Christ. This is simply a trui ... Tags:blood of Jesus, baptism, life, blood, washed, forgiveness
The Kingdom Of God And The New Birth - A Matter Of Timing By: Denny Smith | - Why write an article on the topic the kingdom of God and the new birth? The answer is really quite simple. As long as people today have a desire to be saved in the way Jesus saved some during his personal ministry on earth - by faith without baptism - there will be a need to show the error of that position. On this subject timing makes all the difference.

Is Holy Spirit Baptism The Baptism That Saves? By: Denny Smith | - In an article I wrote I had a gentleman of the Pentecostal persuasion respond seemingly upset with me over the issue of baptism as I was emphasizing the importance of water baptism which he was discounting as being nothing more than a picture of salvation (whatever that means). Of course, his emphasis was on Holy Spirit baptism. In any case since I said I would respond I will do so here thinking I might as well make an article out of my response.
Does Jesus Baptism Condemn You? By: Denny Smith | - Does baptism matter? Most Americans have come to the conclusion that it does not, a person can be saved and go to heaven baptized or not. It is such a settled conviction with most that they are not willing to give the study of the topic the time of day. It is ridiculous to even consider it as they see it. Only the spiritually blinded, only the cult faction, could think otherwise from their point of view.
The Death Of John The Baptist A Sermon On Mark 6:14-29 By: David B. Smith | - When his daughter Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests; and the king said to the girl, "Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it." And he solemnly swore to her, "Whatever you ask me, I will give you, even half of my kingdom." She went out and said to her mother, "What should I ask for?" She replied, "The head of John the baptizer." (Mark 6:23-24)

For the second time Frederick II was excommunicated; he retaliated by attacking the papal states, and this is where Rose of Viterbo came in. In 1240, Frederick II decided to occupy Viterbo!

Important Figures In The New Testament By: Art Gib | - The religion of Christianity is one of the largest in the world with about 1.6 billion believers or about 33% of the world's population. The scripture of Christianity is The Holy Bible in its many versions, which consists of two sections: The Old Testament and The New Testament. The Old Testament recounts the history of creation as well as the experiences and prophecies of ancient prophets. The New Testament recounts the time of Jesus Christ, his birth, ministries, crucifixion, death, resurrec ... Tags:who is the antichrist
Fetus: I Hope He Changes His Mind By: Rev Michael Bresciani | - The question is rhetorical. Obviously liberally minded Americans think Obamas policies are all just peachy keen and conservative Americans are trying to hold back the urge to regurgitate. Pragmatically speaking, if we could suspend the question of right and wrong, is the unborn child any safer? Liberal or conservative, there is no choice here; the answer is an unequivocal no.

In A.D. 26, a prophet named John, who we know as John the Baptist, began preaching in the Desert of Judah, "Repent for the kingdom of heaven is near." (Matthew 3:1-2) Quoting the words of Isaiah he said: "A voice of one calling in the desert, 'Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him.' " (Matthew 3:3)
Is There More Than One Gospel In The Bible? By: Corey Richardson | - Many Bible students assume that the word "gospel" refers to the same message each time it is used throughout the Bible. If that is so, why would the Bible use so many different titles for the same message? For instance:
When Religion Fails In America - Prophecy Will Not By: Rev Michael Bresciani | - In America secular forces are actively trying to give Christianity the boot. Day by day trusted biblical precepts are being scoffed at, openly ignored and actively fought against.
America chooses to ignore its foundations in the bible while Europe is rising on the world's stage as a super power with no anchor, allusion or claim to any religion but secularism. What is the end of all this and where will it lead?
During the later part of the eighteenth and early nineteenth century, a number of church congregations decided that creeds, regardless of whoever wrote them and whatever form they take, are divisive and not in accord with the teachings of the New Testament. They sought to end their denominational ties and become mere Christians with no separating labels.
Jesus, In His Own Words. By: Larry Hilliard | - All philosophical, theological and political discourse issues from a presuppositional matrix.

Jesus: Legendary Hero Or Real Man? By: Jerry Richard Boone | - Surely, it's the most extraordinary story ever told. Jesus, the Christ, the Son of God, came to earth and sacrificed himself so that we mortals might have eternal life. Yes, an extraordinary story, but is it fact? or fiction? One compelling bit of evidence strongly suggests it is indeed a fact. Even so, you will never hear it mentioned in a church!
The Gospels As Literature: Fiction? Or Non-fiction? By: Jerry Richard Boone | - The Gospels are, among other things, a certain type of literature. The question is: What type? Do they display the tell-tale characteristics of fiction, or do they have more of the nitty gritty feel of reality?

Ancient Biblical Grape Juice And Wine Drinkers, Raisin Eaters And Teetotalers (part 2) Scriptures By: Pat Malcolm | - There were anointed men of the Bible who took an oath; that they would not drink wine or eat or drink any of the products of a grapevine, including fresh grapes, raisins (dried grapes), grape seed, grape skins, or grape juice. This cult of Jews was called Nazirites, that included Aaron, the brother of Moses, his priest descendants; Samson, the Judge; and John the Baptist. The Scriptures suggest there were other temporary Nazirites, such as the Apostle, Paul, and others.
