Bridge to Heaven

There is a theological principle called “The Principle of First Mention.” This establishes that when something is first mentioned in Scripture, it is with a revelation of its main purpose. For example, pray and prophet are both first mentioned in the same verse, Genesis 20:7. This implies that...

Two Witnesses—Heritage Brief 55

        It can be a help in understanding our times to see the parallel developments in Christianity and science. In both there are many professionals who are just doing a job, but there are also passionate ones in both who rise up to be prophets of a new day. We must understand the darkness, but even more we must see and understand the light that is beginning to appear.

The Deception—Heritage Brief 54

         Since Darwin’s Theory of Evolution, Freudian psychology, and Marxism have all been soundly debunked by true science, and have proven to be very destructive to society, why are they still embraced by so many? Why are they still taught in our schools? Why do they still influence educated people? When the reasons for this are understood, they help free us from many other diabolical influences that have brought such deception upon the earth. These are some of the most basic reasons so many accept such deception:

Training for Reigning

As we covered last week, this life is a war for a great purpose. As I John 5:19 states, “the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.” Jesus purchased the whole world on the cross, and He is coming to take it back. He has delayed doing this for the sake of those He has called to reign with...

The Path to Sonship

We are in a war. That should not surprise us because we have been in a war our whole life, as has every other human being to live since the fall in the Garden. It never stops, it only changes forms. As we are told in I John 5:19, “We know that we are of God, and that the whole world lies in the...

Finding the Living Waters

One of the most effective military strategies is called concentration of forces . This strategy is used to create a breakthrough in enemy lines because once their lines are penetrated they must retreat to keep from being surrounded. A force in retreat is then far more vulnerable as they must try to...

The Kingdom of God

In Daniel 2 we are told of a dream that King Nebuchadnezzar had of a statue that represented all of the present and future empires of man that would rise on the earth. At the end of the dream a little stone strikes the feet of this statue and it crumbles. The little stone then grows into a mountain...

Our Basic Purpose

The most successful investment strategy is buy low, sell high. Would you like to buy a stock that could not go down, and is guaranteed to keep increasing in value forever? The kingdom of God is guaranteed to do this. Even the greatest empires of men have been short-lived when considered in the span...

Vessels of His Glory

We are well into the time described in Isaiah 60:1-2. Darkness is covering the earth, and deep darkness the people, but where is the glory that is to appear on God’s people? That may be the most important question we can ask at this time. The Lord’s word is true, and we know this is coming. If we...

Discernment—Heritage Brief 53

         In the last few Briefs we addressed how science has refuted Darwinism, Freudian psychology, and Marxism. Darwinism, a “theory,” is refuted by the most basic laws of physics, which are laws, not theories. Freud and Marx are refuted by how they have never worked to bring about the results they claimed, but rather the opposite—every single time. So, why does much of the entire world still embrace these proven fallacies as if they are facts? One word explains it—deception.
