God Will Fight Your Battles

When we are in trouble God literally flies down to where we are to deliver us. We do not have to fear, for His Word states, “Say to those with fearful hearts, ‘Be strong, do not fear, your God will come, He will come with vengeance; with divine retribution He will come to save you.” Isaiah 35:4.

Why Did God Want to Kill Moses?

The following short, cryptic paragraph appears in Exodus. “It came to pass on the way to the lodging place, that the LORD met him, and sought to kill him. Then Zipporah took a flint, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet, saying, ‘Surely a bridegroom of blood are you to me.’ So He let him alone.

God told Abraham that his seed would be passed on through Isaac and not Ishmael. Now God was asking him to sacrifice Isaac. What were Abraham’s thoughts at this critical time?

Prophecies of the Antichrist: Who the Devil Could the Antichrist Be?

The various prophecies of the Antichrist seem to lend itself to sharp differences of opinion among theologians and laymen prophecy students alike. The divergence of views is divided into two main categories. On the one hand you have the view that puts the Antichrist in the distant past, while the other view regards his advent as a future, end-time fulfillment.

Anger, Advocacy and Action for the Defenceless

When we are rejected, and we feel like outliers, we have a special duty. We feel what it feels like to be discriminated against, and then we convert the prejudice against us into a force for advocacy for outsiders with special disadvantages.
