Gate to Glory

Most of Christianity believes that our soul departs this earth and travels one way or another immediately at death.  But is that what the Bible teaches about resurrection?  Is there a reward for the righteous or a punishment for the wicked before Christ returns?  Is death the gate to glory?  Is death an enemy or a friend?  Do we simply wait until we die, or are we waiting for Christ to come?  How can we know the truth?  Find out the answers from God's Word in today's study. Psa. 146:3,4; 17:15; Luke 14:13,14; Matt. 16:27; Job 19:25-27; John 5:28,29; 7:34; 13:33; Gen. 3:22; 2:7; Ecc. 9:5;  Heb. 9:28; 1 Thess. 1:9,10; Rev. 19:6-9 Pastor Kenneth Milne   1988

The Coming of Christ

The second coming of Christ is the very fabric of our faith. His coming motivates us to know God, understand Him, and live for Him. It has a purifying effect. If we really believe Jesus is coming again, we will change the way we think and act. We will be motivated to tell others about this good news, and we won't be alarmed as we see prophetic fulfillment in the nations happening around us. We will be alert. We will be encouraged. We will see God's hand in history as He prepares the world for the coming of His son. And we know it won't be long. Time is ticking. Time is running out. Time is being fulfilled. Are you ready? Are you living like it? 1 John 3:3; Luke 12:35-39; 21; 2 Peter 3:8 Pastor Vernis Wolfe 1990

The Ezekiel News Network

Have you been on vacation lately?  Have you missed out on what's happening in Israel, Syria, Iran, Egypt, Russia, and all around the Middle East?  Well, don't worry.  God has already foretold the specific details of end-time events.  And in today's message, we examine the visions of Ezekiel and how they apply to current events in today's news. Ezekiel 39:1-8,12,13,221-29; 38:1,2,4-6,18-23; Isa. 19:1-4; John 14:26,27; 8:32 Pastor Michael Hoffman   Oregon Church of God  Oregon, Illinois

God's Man for the Hour

Sometimes we're like Gideon.  We hear God say He's with us, but all we see are all of the bad things happening around us.  And then we give up. But that's not God's plan for us.  He is with us even through the hard times, and He tells us to "Go."  Rather than focus on why bad things are happening, He wants us to do something about it.  Will you?  Will you "go?"  There's work to do.  Will you get to work for Him? Judges 6:11-16; Luke 5; Matthew 14 Pastor Dale Swartz   Litchfield Church of God, Litchfield, Minnesota

Great New Things - as Planned

God has planned great things for His people. He has planned new things. He's given us a new message of good news. He's given us a new life in His son. He's made us a new creation following our new birth. And He's given us a new hope in a new world under a new order. It's all new. It's all for us. And it's exactly as He planned it.
