I thought you might find this informative if you are interested in prophecy (this is the "short" study): Who is "the king of the north"? Some insightful Bible students noticed, the proof lies in the obvious identity that exists...

    A different Baptism Consideration

    Hello all, Here is something that has weighed on my mind ever since I accepted Christ; it has to do with the baptism. We all know what baptism is symbolic of, being buried in Christ and resurrected, this is why we practice baptism by immersion. I am secure in this symbology and I don't...

    Baptism belief(s)?

    Hello all, First I want to apologize for my ignorance regarding many Messianic doctrines; while our faiths are pretty close on many points the subject of baptism has never come up between me and some other Messianics I used to chat with. My question(s) is: Do Messianics believe in baptism? If...

    Now this should tell us all something

    Last night I was watching 3ABN and there was a program where the heads of many Adventist groups (the various conferences and unions mostly) were giving money to help those affected by the recent hurricanes here in the USA.

    The Real Deal

    I just thought I'd post these links to help Christians who are stumbling on the question regarding consumption of alcoholic wine in the Bible. I'm sure that these chapters will answer all of the applicable questions. If not then we can discuss it. The Meaning of "wine" in the Bible...

    Essay: Does "For Ever" mean forever?

    I felt it necessary to do this study for a variety of reasons; but the most important one, in my opinion, is dispelling the false belief of an ever-lasting hell which has turned more people away from the Bible (and Christianity) than probably any other singular topic.

    Left Behind series

    Below is an article I found that pretty much sums up the erroneous teachings of the Left Behind series that is sadly believed by so many Christians.
