Church Time

This book is based on the letter Jesus sent to the seven churches in Asia Minor, as depicted in Revelation Chapters 2 and 3. It is a book that can be read independently or it can be read alongside the companion book 'What's Wrong With My Church?' Some commentators have suggested that the letter to the churches in Asia Minor represents the church throughout the ages, through until present day. Because I cannot find any evidence in scripture for this viewpoint, I have simply applied what Jesus said in the Book of Revelation to all churches and Christians within the Kingdom of God. This book ...

When God calls us out of our sin and to himself through the Gospel, he adopts us into his family. That family is the church. This is a book about what that family should be, what it should do, and why it matters. When we look carefully at the big things of the Bible, it's important for us to examine both the scriptures and the culture we live in today. We need to know what the Bible says. We also need to understand the ways we are getting things wrong, and the ways our cultural sins may be blinding us to what God is calling us to in scripture.

The life and legacy of Elijah point to an end-time restoration that is happening now. The living legacy of Elijah is a restored altar of "living stones" (Jews and Gentiles who worship Jesus in one body). His legacy releases the rain of coming revival. Those who receive Elijah's legacy will be wrapped in the presence of God, and this will result in the raising up of the Elisha Generation. Elijah was not only a prophet of God, but he poured his heart into the Elisha Generation that followed him. The Church desperately needs to follow his example today. We need spiritual fathers and mothers ...

There are about seven million Jews in existence in all the nations of the earth. They are living in almost every land under the sun. They excel all other people in being despised. There is not another race or people that is in such a sense a benefactor of the human race as they are, and have been. There is not another people under the sun that is treated so like despicable miscreants as they are, and have been. For two thousand years they have experienced hatred and contempt and persecution. They are an extraordinary race by their faults, by their virtues, and by their long experience. They...

The Prophecy Puzzle is a interesting and practical study on the whole book of Revelation. The subtitle is, "Fitting prophecy from the whole Bible into the book of Revelation" and that is what I tried to do. I go into great detail about how and when end-time events will happen. It is different from other prophecy books in that I believe the style of Jewish writing called, "Parallelism" was largely used in the writing of the book of Revelation. Understanding this gives a much clearer meaning of the book of Revelation, especially in regards to the chronological order of end-time events. The ...

Ida B. Wells was a powerful churchwoman and witness for justice and equity from 1878 to 1931. Born enslaved, her witness flowed through the struggles for justice in her lifetime, especially in the intersections of African Americans, women, and those who were poor. Her life is a profound witness for faith-based work of visionary power, resistance, and resilience for today’s world, when the forces of injustice stand in opposition to progress.

The main purpose of this text is to explain how this world has become an apostate world during the past one hundred years and how the local church is now becoming the apostate church. There are four parts to show how all of this has been happening. Part I starts with Satan's rebellion against the Lord in heaven. It follows his path to the Garden of Eden with Adam and Eve. It shows his demonic activity with Cain, the wicked generation that led to the Great Flood, the Tower of Babel, and the cross at Calvary. After that, it shows how he tried to destroy the local church from without by ...

Paul Sparks, Tim Soerens, and Dwight J. Friesen have seen—in cities, suburbs, and small towns all over North America—how powerful the gospel can be when it takes root in the context of a place, at the intersection of geography, demography, economy, and culture. This is not a new idea—the concept of a parish is as old as Paul's letters to the various communities of the ancient church. But in an age of dislocation and disengagement, the notion of a church that knows its place and gives itself to where it finds itself is like a breath of fresh air, like a sign of new life.

Nostra Aetate "In Our Time" — approved by the Fathers of Vatican II and promulgated by Pope Paul VI on 28 October 1965 — marked an irreversible turning point in relations between the Catholic Church and Judaism, in the wake of the steps taken by Pope John XXIII. The fruit of a long and careful drafting process, it also significantly changed Catholicism’s approach toward non-Christian religions, and is considered a foundational text for dialogue with other religions.

Since the beginning of the earth, all of the Lord's prophets have looked with longing toward the end times, when the many promises of the Lord would be fulfilled and the Kingdom of God would finally be established upon the earth. With a larger canon than most religions, members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have access to a great many doctrines regarding this topic. Yet the words of Isaiah, which were so plain and simple to Nephi, tend to mystify the Latter-day Saints. The words of Ezekiel go largely unread. The dire warnings in 3rd Nephi are casually skimmed over. Why?...
