"And it repented the LORD that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at His heart." Yet still, "in Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace." This love of Christ is incomprehensible, and though we fail and grieve Him, filled with doubts toward Him or doubts of us, we are healed and empowered by His life and His sacrifice. Please join us as the pastors speak on the unpardonable sin, and how we must believe God will forgive AND give power and ability to live a new life. God will not ask of us anything without firstly giving us the power ! "When faith asks of God, it believes that it has the petition which it has asked of Him," (C.H.S.). God has provided help for us, and in His strength we may conquer, (PP, 421). Let us believe Him ! Let us praise Him !

From cover to cover, the Bible is filled with stories of temptations and attacks, betrayals and losses - Babylon against Israel. Today, the Lord is still watching for signs in us of surrender, signs in us of seriousness and fidelity, signs that we are ready... but our taste for the mundane grows; our worship of the world has barely begun. "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen," and we must leave for it has become a dwelling place of demons. This world rots and strides toward its destruction, yet God's Kingdom has no end. His Kingdom of glory will be forever. Join us now as we learn that understanding God's Word affects our image of Him and our relationship with Him, and that misunderstanding it will change our ability to love Him and reject the devil.

Our best Friend is Jesus - He who did not withhold His own life from us but for our sakes became poor, (CS, 326). Our best Friend is Jesus - He who bore a test infinitely more severe than that which Adam failed to endure, humiliating Himself to the lowest depths of woe that He might be qualified to reach man. What amazing Love !! A Friend like no other, (2Red, 14, 15, 31). Yet what are we but proud, disobedient and naked... What are we but confused, angry and dirty. Join us to hear more of Christ's faithfulness, His nobleness and righteousness, His authority and His blessings. Truthfully all that can be desired is not comparable to Him. Jesus is our Friend in affliction; He is One who knows, (DG, 221).1.- Are Christians supposed to keep the feast days ?2.- Where do you cross from an acceptable pride, to a sinful pride ?3.- Were Adam's and Eve's garments the first introduction of artificial, synthetic, technological light on Earth ?4.- Is the law that we are “no longer under” referring to the Book of Moses ?5.- How long was Dorcas dead before she was revived in Acts chapter 9 verses 36 through 43 ?6.- How are we supposed to keep the Sabbath in the New Earth if there is no passage of time ?7.- Where does the timeline of Daniel 9 verse 26 fall in the timeline of the 70-week prophecy ?8.- Scripture says that every eye will see Jesus' return.

Success should be defined by our faithfulness and obedience to the Lord. Success will be defined when the forthcoming events prove whether our hearts were of stone or of flesh. "The effort to serve both self and Christ makes one a stony-ground hearer, and he will not endure when the test comes upon him," (COL, 50). Let us allow our Rock and our Salvation to work in us, to write His name and His law inside, to live inside so that the language of the soul may be, "Lord, take my heart. Keep it pure. Save me in spite of myself, my weak, unchristlike self," (COL, 159). Only with His strength will we endure the length of the Great Tribulation. Only with His heart will we keep the Ten Commandments, and only with His guidance will we be born again.

God has permitted a flood of light to be poured upon the world in discoveries in science. But even the greatest minds, if not guided by the Word of God, become bewildered in their attempts to investigate the relations of science and revelation, (HF, 322). Knowledge has increased exponentially more in the last 100 years than in all of the history of man combined ! Could this be a sign ? Look at where we are and what we are doing... In all regards, may we let our Father and Lord lead the way as this world's time expires. Tune in and study with us about Armageddon and its timeline. We'll also discuss the Second Coming, the first and second deaths described in the Bible, and very importantly, why the Sabbath is still to be observed today.1.- Are the Armageddons referenced in Revelation chapters 16 and 20 the same event or different ?2.- How can we know that Sabbath is Saturday ?3.- Is Enoch really still alive ?4.- Is using the name "Jesus" wrong since His name in Hebrew was different ?5.- Why do I go to church on Sunday if Sunday is Resurrection Day ?6.- How will every eye see Jesus' return if I'm blind ?7.- Will you please explain why God permitted Jacob to build pillars when Scripture states that it is forbidden ?8.- Were Adam and Eve created before Sabbath ? and when exactly was their wedding ?9.- What does Deuteronomy 14 verse 26 mean ?10.- Are the seven trumpets past, current or future events ?11.- What would it mean if the River Euphrates dried up before the seven last plagues begin ?12.- Will you please explain the “sin unto death” mentioned in 1 John 5 verse 16 ?13.- Would dairy and eggs be considered vegetarian ?14.- Can we actually rebuke demons through reading Scripture and prayer ?15.- Why don't Seventh-day Adventists believe in speaking in tongues and dancing ?16.- In regards to the second death, the Bible says God will send down fire.

If the erring one persistently refuses to heed the voice that calls him with pitying, tender love, he will at last be left in darkness. The heart that has long slighted God's mercy, becomes hardened in sin, and is no longer susceptible to the influence of the grace of God. Fearful will be the doom of that soul (PP, 165). When the Light comes on, on which side will you find yourself ? The wicked run from the light, the righteous run to the light... There's no time to waste; we must make our decision now.

If "our chastisements are our promotions," and if that which is gained after many a struggle is a full weighted blessing, and if "our heavenly Father measures and weighs every trial before He permits it to come upon" us... then everything we go through is worth it for now, and for eternity ! (C. Spurgeon, OHC, 323.) Let us then show the world that our God is worth ten thousand worlds to us (C. Spurgeon); that His Word is the maximum; that His Law is our delight; that despite not understanding everything, we keep faith, because everything is worth it, because nothing is above Him - because we will see God's smiling face in Heaven !

And if sin be removed so far, then we may be sure that the scent, the trace, the very memory of it must be entirely gone; even Satan himself could not achieve to bring it back again.

"Every act of life, however small, has its bearing for good or for evil... It is the little things that test the character;" it's the little things that our Father cares about (PP, 158). Join us and learn about the absoluteness of obedience and the meaning of habitual and willful sin. We'll also delineate how to love God more: put simply, we must in our intention give up all for Jesus, and in act, we must give up all to Jesus (C.H.S.).

It's our responsibility in the end to believe or not believe God's word, because it's our choice.

Nothing is ever nothing – not Satan’s minutest deceptions, not God’s quietest warnings, and the seemingly small things are never really small, for “to a man who lives for God, nothing is secular, everything is sacred,” (C.H.S). Tune in now as we discuss what part we can take in the special mission the Lord has given us to prepare the world for His return. We must show to be His, we must be hearers and doers, we must take Christ’s strength, we must tear away from the ignorance. The Lord throws us the obvious sometimes; we must see Him, and see through the enemy.
“The sweetness of the Bible lies in the possessive pronouns,” (Charles H. Spurgeon). The Lord is YOUR deliverer, Your help and Your salvation. The Lord is OUR strength, Our power and Our victory. Do you believe it ? Join us now as we learn to believe the truth and not Satan’s lies, to believe in His power and in His sure word, to trust Him, to see others as our Father sees them, and thus love them as He loves them; and to believe His prophecies and keep His testimonies. Grasp your Lord, lay hold on Him ! Study with us now !
The Christian enjoys the beauty of nature with the highest appreciation, for he recognizes his Father’s handiwork (SC, 87). The Christian confirms when under pressure whom he serves, for “what we have absorbed is what we will release,” (J. Reish). The Lord’s love is evidenced in His creation, the devil’s work in its decay. Who are we letting in ? What are we letting out ? May we redirect our focus to God, may we be subdued by His Spirit, may we place God first and let others see the Invisible within us, that He may be seen also without.
“When the Spirit of God takes possession of the heart, it transforms the life. The blessing comes when by faith the soul surrenders itself to God. Then that power creates a new being in the image of Christ,” (2MCP, 760). We wait on God to rescue, to help; we wait on God to convict… we wait. However, we wait and we live, moving forward in action; doing, studying, learning what we can to be nearer to God, impulsed by faith to obey and influence others positively. Join us now to learn more.
Intelligence to wisdom, wisdom to recognition, recognition to need, need to reliance, reliance to freedom… It all originates and turns back toward Christ. Join us now as we explain with the Bible’s guidance how to deal with stress and how the Lord sweetly encourages us. We’ll elaborate too on what it means to take up our cross and how no matter what, we mustn’t ever stop. Sometimes we feel like God ignores us, but don’t let go ! You’re not alone. Believe that Christ understands, because He does.
Christ gave Everything to simply have the possibility that you could accept His sacrifice (T. Gibson), so what will you do about it ? Accept His gift and pass it on ! Spend time with Christ in His Word. Join us ! We’ll discuss God creating sin, contradictions in the Bible, and many other topics. Christ deserves all our love, all our mind, all our life, all our time. “Nothing is too little which relates to man’s salvation, nor is there anything too little in which to please God,” (E. Pusey).
"I have loved you... Fear not, for I am with you." Why do we worry so much ? Why are our eyes so small, that we cannot see beyond our presence. Christ’s kingdom will never be conquered ! This world is temporary, the happiest happiness we’ll live up there, and though the enemy harass us, provoking discord among us, harming us, straining us, sending tragedy and heartbreak... we are guarded by Omnipotence, and therefore always safe (C. Spurgeon). Open your Bible and your eyes and join us now !
Some of us move but in fear, forgetting that the thorny path becomes easier because His footsteps have already pressed down the briers (CS, 151). Tune in as we discuss fear and the future life, lawlessness and the mark of the beast, and guns and death decrees.
You must carry the cross before you wear the crown and learn to leave the time of the blessing in the hands of God (C.H.S.). But it's extremely difficult- it truly, truly is... to learn to trust the Lord, to let the Lord build faith during the waiting, to wait quietly, to quietly bear the trials, to regard the trials as saving lessons... Join us as we explore these topics and much more. The end is not yet, but when it comes it shall be everlasting joy. Don’t let go ! The best is yet to come.
One of the noblest features of a Christian is the readiness to forgive and the cheerfulness in recompensing good for evil, (C.H.S.). In the simplest essence, it is a reflection of Christ and His grace, a reflection of the goodness and sacrifice which lovingly convict. Join us to learn about surrendering to Christ to overcome, about growing our faith through trial, and about handling hatred from others. To triumph in grace is a difficult thing, but holding His hand we can accomplish any thing.
We went about it all wrong, on our own, not consulting God. We put ourselves in front when our desires we should have placed behind. Now what ? Although we rejected God's best, by the influence of the Holy Spirit our backsliding can be reversed. By His assistance we can "avail ourselves of all help and light that God has given" in order to understand this precious Everlasting Gospel (CH, 506), and in order to then share and speak truth with this heavenly oil of love, no matter the persecution.
Is it that the heart is closed and dead, coffined, and a phantom... If you don't know what to do when you're lost and weak, if you can't forgive yourself, if you don't know how to repent or how to fight Satan back, don't despair. “Tell him to recollect his bruised head, which he tries to cover with a crown of pride,” (C.H. S.), remind him that he is fighting a lost battle, and study with us about God's mercies and new beginnings. There is purpose. There is Light in everything, keep moving.
“Mold me, fashion me, raise me into a holy atmosphere,” (COL, 159). The earthly sanctuary was but just a hint, a shadow of the Heavenly. And us, if we could be a shadow of Christ, miniatures of Him, what could be achieved ? Perhaps our families could witness His character through us, perhaps those that wonder why bad things happen to good people could understand faith through us. Perhaps change could happen, a consuming conversion as we behold Him to become like Him. Join us to learn more.
Each day we must do battle with evil. "Old habits, hereditary tendencies, will strive for the mastery..." (AA, 476). It must be our constancy : fight your self, fight the flesh. Though sin is tearing us apart in this inward battle between God's will and our selfishness, tearing us away from God's image and embrace, if we have even the smallest confidence that He is our personal Savior, if we seek Him and share Him, we can run up that mountain of sin in Christ's strength victorious !
Regret is an ugly thing. When salvation He's made free, when His love He's made free, when freedom is a just a decision away... Why wouldn't you take it? Our hearts are stone and wicked and deceitful, we are in the dark. But even so the Lord gives us choice. We can choose to take His seal and want His will, we can choose to forgive and be forgiven, we can choose to have Heaven forever. Right will lead to Light. Tune in now and find out more.
“There is a science of Christianity to be mastered – a science much deeper, broader, higher than any human science,” (MH, 453). This is a science of unlearning to relearn, of suffering to be strong, (AA, 467). It’s a science of going deeper in our Father and of falling deeply in love with Him, of demonstrating faith in the life because of love, demonstrating His forgiveness and mercy toward us because of love. Maybe, just maybe then, we can hasten His glorious return… Join us now to learn more !
How much longer can we remain in Satan's spell ? We've learned to lose ourselves, allowing sin to attach like a lifeline. And our human insignificance, our powerlessness and deficiency... we are so small, sinners to the full extent. We need Christ, and He will help us if we let go - leave alone and behind what's preventing us from going to the next level with Him. Your salvation is through Christ only, not through what you do or don't do. You just have to want it, and He will do the rest.
We cannot imagine or fathom what God has prepared for those who love Him... Something Magnificent is waiting beyond the turmoil ! And though time is closing in on this life, Keep Your Head Up and join us as we dream about our Heavenly homes ! We'll study too about the plagues and signs surrounding the end days - the tests we must watch for and endure before we enter into Heaven. But praise God !! There is no greater love than His ! and our greatest happiness will be found in loving Him.
God is the Creator of all the beauty and all the choreography around us, but these evidences in nature, are we to keep and tend them ? Is it our responsibility to be good stewards of God's nature, or is this a trick of the enemy to fool us with his laws and eccentricities ? Listen in and learn more ! We'll as well look into what happens to our breath, our spirit, after death, and we'll discuss the wisdom to discern when we should give up with someone, and when we should keep going.
There is so little time left, we are in the crucible. "Tomorrow is not yours. Today you are to maintain the victory over self," (HS, 142). There may well be no next time to get it right. Tune in now as we focus on Christ's Second Coming and the signs of the times present around the world. Despite it all however, we must not have a time of trouble beforehand by our anxiety. Instead, may we "live in God, and on God, and with God... and give Him His due by trusting Him," (C.H. Spurgeon).
Why Satan fell, we cannot understand, and Christ's plan of salvation we will never comprehend ! Mystery and enigma, miracle and grace... praise God for the hope He gives us ! While Satan's position made his guilt unpardonable (2Red, 18), our Father promises to receive us again into His favor if we respond to Christ's sacrifice by obeying His law, and testify of Him through love for others. Join us now as we study about Christ and His return, for He is the Author, and the Finisher, of our faith.
Our Father is faithful, no matter the circumstance, no matter the time. Our part is to receive His Word, no matter the circumstance, no matter the time. Our work is a work of faith (COL, 64)... to fight the good fight, to believe and own His promises, to confess and prepare. The signs are all around us, let us not be a stubborn people. Let us return to the Lord no matter how or why, but let us return to the Lord. Join us now in study and prayer. He will always provide strength and victory !
We are weak. Let Him be your strength. Let Him keep you afloat. Let Him renew you. When you are estranged from loved ones, when the enemy whispers evils in your ear, when you can't rid yourself of the habitual sin, grip the promises of His Word and reach to Him with faith saying, "Lord, take my heart. Keep it pure. Save me in spite of myself," (COL, 159). Tests lead to transformations, a new birth, because every trial is an instruction, and hence every trial is a promotion (C.H.S.).
"Those who caviled at the words of Christ found ever-increasing cause for cavil," refusing the light which would illuminate their darkness, (HLv, 391). We stand between the darkness of ignorance and the eternal darkness of death... unless we turn our will to Christ. The luckiest thing is having been born, don't let the enemy monopolize your time or your will ! Join us now and we'll learn about the lake of fire and about what God's responsibility is toward us, once we seek Him and His will.
"Only as God shall lead, guide, influence, inspire, can we perform our solemn trust," (C.H.S.) and this great commission can only manifest if we keep our hearts on Him, learning Him, depending on Him, loving Him. So open your Bible and study with us ! Learn how life on Earth affects the results in Heaven, learn about the trinity, about God's laws before the Ten Commandments, and so much more. Let us revolve around the Lord, for our salvation depends on knowing the truth in His Word (COL, 111).
“Ye must die that ye may live. Get ready, get ready, get ready... Sacrifice all to God. It will take all to enter glory," (Mar, 98). When we look at ourselves in the mirror of God's law, we will see what could cost us eternity. It is time to get ready ! It won't be long. Are you a lukewarm Christian ? Do you feel the need to be re-baptized ? But what about the "once saved, always saved" theory ? And is it time yet to leave the cities ? Open your Bible with us as we look to God together.
Sometimes we go week by week, struggling. Sometimes it's day by day and sometimes we're hanging on just hour by hour. Through it all, we must keep our heads up. He is the source of our strength. Join us in this refreshingly detailed Bible study ! Pastor Ross will take you step by step through topics such as the surrender of self, witnessing to neighbors, the final battle of Armageddon, and the keys to living the true Gospel. Open your Bible with us and let God hold your hand at each step.
"Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand." Knowledge is increasing and our eyes are opening as we study God's Word. Join us now to learn of the various time prophecies in the book of Daniel as well as of the four chariots in the book of Zechariah. We'll also study about the 144,000, the close of probation and the threshold of salvation. The grains of time may be trickling down, but a pulse is a purpose and while there is life there is Always hope.
It feels like we are in the valley of the shadow of death, but HE is here with us. HE is here within us, wanting to write His image in our hearts. And we are ALWAYS within Him - the apple of His eye. Join us as we learn how God is the God of the living and the dead, a God of Hope ! We'll learn how to study the Bible and we'll learn how Christ died the death that belonged to us, so that we can live forever with Him. Keep hope. We are prospered by our trials, we shall triumph, we are Christ's !
We must keep going and get back on the path. We must keep going with the Lord, never giving up. "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations..." We too must be that witness, in our diet, in our worship of the Sabbath, in our persistence to grow our knowledge and comprehension of the Word, and especially of the prophecies that are being now fulfilled. We must complete that mission. He is waiting on us, and He can't wait to see us face to face !
"He must increase, but I must decrease," for "those who are true to their calling as messengers of God will not seek honor for themselves," (GW, 56). Self should be emptied and the daily surrender, the repentance, the meekness and humility, the insistence and the pleading, will assure us of our salvation and final reward of eternal life. Christ is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Let Him in, take His pierced hand and accept His gift. Join us now to learn more !
"Our Redeemer has opened the way so that the most sinful, oppressed, and despised... may have a home in the mansions which Jesus has gone to prepare," (HLv, 68). What better hope and prize can we imagine to attain ! Christ is the Way; the glorious truth is that the victory over every difficulty is already yours, in Christ (E.J. Waggoner). Tune in to find out more about the millennium, the rapture, hell and a timeline of Christ's Second Coming. Heaven is but a decision away !
Men's hearts are still for evil continually, God's heart is still for love eternally; Satan stands for sin and prophecy and the law still stand to condemn him. God will prevail. Open your Bible and study God's Word with us ! "Where there is no vision, the people perish," but we have the tool of prophecy within reach to guide ! Learn with us of one-world unity, the antichrist, the faith of Jesus which will sustain, and the true church and bride of Christ.
As the disciples gathered to pray, "they were weighted with the burden of the salvation of souls." The Gospel needed to be carried to all the world, (AA, 37). We must all have this burden, and we must all ask ourselves if we are truly investing in the salvation of souls, for "in calling God our Father, we recognize all His children as our brethren," (Pr, 245). Then, are we silent, hoarding, asleep ? Are we joyful and feeling urged to share the good news of grace ? The Lord is waiting on us.
We have to fall in love with Christ again, we have to start from the beginning and see His love. For us to do that is going to take a full surrender and total repentance, a complete sacrifice. And Christ is worth it, so worth it... Heaven is cheap enough !! But what is repentance ? And does God ever reject us ? Be encouraged as you listen in ! Recommit, readjust. Christ's sacrifice, "God's all cannot be praised with less than our all," and we never praise Him better than when we obey (C.H.S.).
"The more closely believers have walked with God, the more powerfully have they testified of their Redeemer's love..." (AA, 49). As we study our Bibles and meditate on its truths, we realize the need to bear witness in our lives of Christ's character. Whether that be by defending our faith or by keeping hope through tribulation, we must stand as signs and wonders in the world, appreciating the beauty of complete involvement in the present and clutching tightly to the promises of our Lord.
Do not look to yourself, but away to Jesus... You will find Him away from yourself (2MCP, 808). This means surrender pride, worry and anxiety and problems, sinfulness. This means trust Jesus. Persevere. Surrender and trust as you study your Bible, surrender and trust as you fast. Surrender and trust as you hit rock-bottom. Fix your eye on the Sun of righteousness. He has the victory, He has the virtue, He has the strength - He has you in hand and His everlasting arms are about you (2MCP, 809) !
Sometimes there is nothing we can do except pray, surrender and repent. Repentance is a tricky thing isn't it, but it's necessary to pray in faith and bring our lives into harmony with our petitions (Pr, 216). Bend your knee before Him and regain your first love, fight the thinking so it doesn't become a doing. Bow your knees and testify that your whole is in subjection to the Spirit of truth (Pr, 208), and you'll learn even to love your enemies as God still loves you.
It is He that has made us, and not we ourselves. He knows us, knows our needs, knows our defects. He sees us... He is the name of our salvation. "The mercy which endures forever, and the fidelity which cannot forget a promise, secure to the chosen the salvation guaranteed by the covenant of grace," (C.H. Spurgeon). Open your Bible and your heart and learn more with us as we discuss what growing in grace by His side means, and how He can cast out all of our fears to bring us peace and comfort.
One of our greatest freedoms is choosing how we react to the circumstances in our lives. It is our freedom of choice. What will we choose to do if we fear we have committed the unpardonable sin ? What will we choose to do as we lie ill on our deathbeds and look back at our lives of supposed Christianity ? What will we choose to do if our fiancé isn't of our faith ? Join us during this episode of Bible Answers Live to learn more, for in the end the answers are all in His Word and His love.
From desert to lush, from nothing to everything and all that's in between during this life, just keep your eyes on Him, straining and pressing on toward the goal. All is at stake and all is to gain; all the fruits and all the gifts, all the wisdom and all the healing, all the strength and all the answers. In this edition of Bible Answers Live you'll learn of God's gifts, of salvation and second deaths, of investments and of dreams. Join us ! Just take the step and let's go all in.
Our Father never lets go of us, despite us, through us, because of us... in the sin we commit, in the challenges we face, in the sacrifice for us. He never lets go, but we must. We must let go of the skepticism and of the comparison, we must let go of ourselves and delve deeply into His Word. In this installment of Bible Answers Live we'll explore more about evolution, bitterness or God's long-suffering toward us and others, and many practical matters. Come and open your Bible with us !
"The separation is wide and fearful, but Christ has made provision again to connect us with Himself," (NL, 45). We have every reason to believe and nothing to fear. In this new beginning, with the unknown and the uncertain, rejoice as you imagine Jesus smile, rejoice as you learn of His sacrifice for you, rejoice as you recognize the perfection of prophecy and the mercy of His condescension. Rejoice that He longs for closeness with you and surrender what distances you from Him.
The Lord is great and greatly to be praised ! He does not out us; He covers us, equips us and enables us. The Lord does not forget us; He refreshes us, washes us and forgives us. God's love is consistent and unconditional and forever... but is ours ? We have to fight the feelings, God hasn't abandoned; He is a present Father ! Join us and learn of Him and His Spirit and His Son, and let us praise Him for no praise is too much, too often, too zealous or too joyful (C.H. Spurgeon).
It's difficult to let go of ourselves and cling to Him. Our worries assail us and we question if our children will be saved or if we can obtain forgiveness and reconciliation. But just put yourself aside and focus on Him. Ask so that you can receive and trust the signs and His Word. Please bless us by joining us in this installment of Bible Answers Live. You'll learn as well of Christ's walks with Adam and Eve in Eden, and how or if His law existed even before creation, before sin, in Heaven.
Heaven begins here, do you believe it ? If we walk with Him in this life, His love fills and His presence satisfies and all the more intense will our happiness be (2MCP, 651). However, prophecy tells us of the time soon coming of the plagues, the tribulation and closing probation. We must prepare for the true Heaven -the eternal one- so we must sacrifice the lower for the higher and the earthly for the spiritual... Of what good would God deprive us ? Everything is to prepare us to make it.
"Give unto the Lord glory and strength." In trying to overcome old habits and carve out new ones, remember God. He gives the strength. "Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness." Love creates obedience, so with sacred awe, remember God. He allows us freewill and decision. "In His temple doth everyone speak of His glory." As we unite to magnify His name in our personal ministry and as we reach others with the Gospel, may we remember God and receive our heritage - blessed peace from the Lord.
Perfection in character means a full surrender to Christ, which means peace, which means happiness. As we ask for real repentance and we try to regain our first love and our fire for Christ, the only path is one of sincere self-examination and earnest prayer. We must be truly intentional as we seek Him. Join us as Pastor Ross gives us "the prayer prescription" and carefully delineates how God can give us wisdom and discernment, and repentance and victory. Believe. He is waiting to make us free.
So many of us doubt and fear ourselves and our temptations. We face troubles and plead to God, and He does hear us. So stay, keep reaching out to Him. He is willing to save you and He will protect you from the enemy, from straying, from your addictions, from your trials. His forgiveness is immediate and His Spirit He will gift to you. Bless us by joining us and learn from His Word how you can draw near to Him and how He will save you if you just sincerely believe.
Another week brings another batch of questions from listeners all over the country ! Join us in this edition of Bible Answers Live, you've probably been wondering the same things ! How do I evangelize to those at my school ? How do I know I'm saved ? Are my trials a sign of God's displeasure ? Are these bad thoughts considered sin ? Is temptation bad ? Pastor Doug and Pastor Ross will guide you through the ultimate resource, the Bible, to find the answers to these questions and more !
We wonder if the nation of Israel making headlines is prophetic; we should also notice God's constant and faithful protection over His nation throughout history. The covenant the Lord made with His people through Abraham still exists today. He has Always preserved His children, and even in our personal lives we see the same. He will deliver us. Bless us by joining us on Bible Answers Live ! You'll learn more of God's covenant, of God's chastisement and of God's one, true church.
... and Hope. Whether hope is your first option or whether hope is resignation, never let go of your Father's loving hand. While we try to navigate through these dark and strange times, take hold of your Bible and find comfort in His Word with us. Tune in to Bible Answers Live and you'll learn about the terrible war in Heaven, about the separation of the body and the spirit after death, about the existence of Hell and about Christ's second coming and the joyful Hope we all have IN HIM.
How much more can you take ? How much do you have left in you ? So many of us are struggling in our faith, asking why, why... why Lord ? So many of us are inside this deep furnace of affliction, reaching the breaking point. But reaching the breaking point means reaching the breakthrough. Strike after strike doesn't mean God hates you. Strike after strike He's saving you through. Please, join us and learn about fully committing to God, about suicide, and about seeking His kingdom FIRST.
We are to fear the Lord and serve Him in sincerity and in faithfulness, but what does that fear mean exactly ? Some of us have a fear of witnessing, some of us have a fear of death, are we to fear the Lord likewise ? Join Pastor Ross in this episode of Bible Answers Live as we learn what faith and love truly are, and what it means to serve God although we may not prosper, trusting the Lord and focusing on, believing in, His eternal reward.
"The sheep's clothing seems so genuine, that the wolf can be discerned only as we go to God's great moral standard..." (FW, 45). The enemy works stealthily to deceive us, surrounding us with falsities of death, of the gifts of the spirit, of mere men having the power to forgive sins. He also floods our minds with guilt and doubt, confusing us about repentance and God's forgiveness... But don't despair, look to Christ ! HE is your standard and your worth !
Prophecy is unrolling and extending right before us, but are we really living in the last days ? Are the United States of America in Bible prophecy ? What is the difference between pagan Rome and papal Rome ? What is the final battle and what is the timeline of this armageddon ? Join Pastor Ross during this episode of Bible Answers Live as he clarifies the mysteries and confusions of the books of prophecy and helps callers from different countries come to a clearer understanding of the Bible.
In the word there is divine energy that can transform your mind and make you a new creation. (E.J. Waggoner) In the word we are entreated to die to self, to allow Christ to abide in us and to express HIM in everything we do : submitting our wills to God, being sincere in faith, loving those that pain us. It will be crushing to let go, to die to the desires of the heart and be empty shells, unless we can let go but let Him in, for "this is my comfort in my affliction; Thy word has made me alive."
The brevity of time is catching up. Look around and you will see that the prevailing sins and the indulgence of perverted appetites are polluting our morality (CTBH, 11). Time is almost done, and as we will study, salvation really isn't that hard. Christ's yolk is easy and if we can just have a true change of heart, a better quality of righteousness, a perseverance and patience to obey and keep on the journey of growth and grace, if we can just commit and TRUST... we can make it to Heaven.
Christ seeks to give us a true direction of our faith. He is the resurrection and the original, unborrowed, underived Life (DA, 530). We are confused about predestination, we are confused about faith and presumption and prophecy and suicide and salvation... Listen to this edition of Bible Answers Live and receive God's clarity directly from His word. Open your Bible and your heart, confess your faith in Him and your confidence that He will see you through until the very end, no matter what.
"He that has My commandments, and keeps them, he it is that loves Me." It is enjoined upon us to walk in the light as Christ is in the light, so open your heart with us to receive every ray of light that God chooses to impart (2MR, 265). We'll study about the Second Coming and the glory and the power that will accompany ! And we'll learn that He has faithful witnesses in all faiths that will be saved, because we lived according to the light we were able to receive.
"In Christ you have the victory; when you are in Him the temptations assail Him, and not you by yourself. When you hide your weakness in His strength, His strength will fight the battle." (E.J. Waggoner) Let Him turn your mistake into victory and help you learn what He's trying to teach you. If you wonder about the Bible's credibility, about the Ten Commandments' validity, about the necessity of Christ's sacrifice, tune in. Take His mercy, His victory, His strength and press on.
He hasn't forgotten you. Nothing can befall us of which God takes no immediate interest (SC, 117). He has you engraved in the palms of His hands (Isaiah 49:16); YOU are His priority, YOU are the object of His love and yearning (COL, 225), so don't listen to the fear as Elijah did. Instead keep your head up and cling to Him like Mary. Instead listen to that small voice of the Holy Spirit, no matter the tribulation. Give everything for your salvation, as Christ gave everything for your salvation.
God would have us take the short and straight way, we would take the rich and easy way, but neither would have the same value for our character. Mercifully He allows the burdens and temptations to "work together for good to them that love God," and our mistakes make our crooked paths, paths of sin and spiritual stagnation. Listen closely as we explore the seriousness of our faith and duty after baptism, and as we understand that perfection does not mean flawlessness.
By our wrong habits we lessen our hold on life (CD, 45). If we keep willfully sinning, what are we truly doing but growing dark and lessening our strength to glorify God, which is certain death. In this new year, what will you change ? Will you self-examine, surrender, or will you continue judging and sinning until Jesus returns ? Study with us and "with intense earnestness learn the trade of seeking His blessings... for God will be to us everything we will let Him be," if we only ask (Pr, 56).
We tire of the banality, the insufficiency, the mediocrity, the falsity. We long for just that something more : peace, real joy, love, security. How do we find it ? Where do we find it ? Come study with us as we open God's Word to delve into the source of true happiness and peace. If you've lost your first love, if you're confused about prophecy, if you wonder about the origin of different races, tune into the installment of Bible Answers Live and learn with us about these topics and more.
We are called to be self-sacrificing, meek and lowly of heart, to walk in the narrow path traveled by the Man of Calvary (HLv, 260). Something as simple as yielding on speaking idle words, something as complicated as the morality of vaccines, or something as heartbreaking as sacrificing relationships with family as we keep on the narrower and narrower path... Join us and hear the pastors speak on these topics and others, on this episode of Bible Answers Live.
He is our Rock and our salvation, our foundation... why then do we find it so difficult to trust Him ? Through every storm and trial we are proved to see whether we have living, abiding faith. We must trust all on His promises. We must trust God in the darkness (Pr 38). So as we pray for the unbelievers, as we evaluate the fragility of our faith, as we discern how God protects but also corrects us, may we trust our Precious Cornerstone, surrender, and liberate ourselves.
"When a man breathes an intensely earnest prayer to God, there is in that intensity and earnestness a pledge from God that He is about to answer that prayer exceedingly abundantly," (Pr, 101). What joy !! We can directly pray to Christ, our Advocate, and we know He is there ! Thus we are to always pray, always work, always be ready for the Lord, and always testify of Him and know Him. Come study with us and learn more ! Ignorance is not bliss, but knowing Christ is !
Don't reject the measure of His blessings. Don't forget all that He's done; the only thing that limits Him is your lack of hope. You must believe to receive, "for the blessings received are proportionate to the faith exercised." (7T, 274). We shall have the things we ask for. Christ humbled Himself for our cause so that we can see Him face to face in Heaven. Rely on Him, spend time with Him, ask Him unweariedly. Make hope your first option, or make hope your resignation, but never lose hope.
Every true believer will catch the beams from Christ and transmit light to those in darkness, and as a church we will shine forth to regions beyond. Those who tell the sinner of Christ's pardoning love are Christ's witnesses (SJ, 166), diffusing the beams of His light which is His life (TDG, 327). Come study with us, for as we enter the very last days our duty is to teach the Bible, to tell of God's love and emotions, of the true gifts of the spirit and of God's sweet mercy for our ignorance.
