Acts 7 is About Jerusalem’s Rejection of the Spirit

Stephen wasn’t the first prophet Israel rejected. His stoning is akin to that of Zechariah in the Old Testament, but where it differs from Zechariah’s, is that it was the last straw so to speak due to Israel not only rejecting the law, the prophets and the holy place, but also God the Son, theContinue reading “Acts 7 is About Jerusalem’s Rejection of the Spirit”

My First Dispensational Chart

I know what you are thinking: five dispensations and not four… but it’s actually four, as Israel as a nation has been blinded in part (which part also encompasses the Dispensation of Grace). Romans 11:25 – Authorised Version For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should beContinue reading “My First Dispensational Chart”

Another Way of Looking at ‘Accursed’

‘Accursed’ in relation to Christ: Deuteronomy 21:22-23 King James BibleAnd if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree: His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day;Continue reading “Another Way of Looking at ‘Accursed’”

Both Man and God

Most professing Christians cannot understand that Christ during his earthly ministry showed both human and God traits or attributes, so when he said the following, they erroneously conclude that he gave up his deity attributes: John 5:30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just;Continue reading “Both Man and God”

Shmita or Sabbatical Cycles of Time

Shmita, the Jwish 7th year of rest. Firstly, let me reiterate that these are not applicable today, it’s just very interesting to know how the law applied to nature and farming in times past during Israel’s reign as well as how it will apply in times to come. Furthermore, after 49 years which amounts toContinue reading “Shmita or Sabbatical Cycles of Time”

A Long Shot…

Why some assume/believe Paul committed the unpardonable sin: Acts 6:5And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch: And it goes “something like this” in Mid-Acts circles…Continue reading “A Long Shot…”

Abram the Hebrew (Ha’biru)

Ha’biru: a nomadic people mentioned in Assyro-Babylonian literature from 2000 BC on, and often identified as the Hebrews of the Bible. Genesis 14:13And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these were confederate withContinue reading “Abram the Hebrew (Ha’biru)”

“… And Eve Took a Bite of the Apple then Offered it to Adam…”

Genesis 3 must be the most misquoted and misunderstood chapter in the Bible. But from this chapter we can ascertain that Man was perfect – innocent – and didn’t know what evil was before he ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil… Isn’t this just par for the course how subtleContinue reading ““… And Eve Took a Bite of the Apple then Offered it to Adam…””

A Glimpse into Hell

This is taken from Israel’s law program during times past where people were saved by faith + works and this rich man, a Jew, we know, because he refers to Abraham in Paradise as “Father Abraham”, obviously didn’t have a good report with God during his lifetime as he didn’t care much for poor LazarusContinue reading “A Glimpse into Hell”
