Is Worshipping Jesus Like Worshipping Nehushtan?

Is Worshipping Jesus Like Worshipping Nehushtan?

Comments 0 Comment
The Bible refers to a fiery colored bonze snake on a pole used for a good, Godly purpose that eventually was worshipped, and given the name Nehushtan. This bronze snake on a pole is mentioned by Jesus as a comparison to the salvation from God that comes through him.  

 

WHY THE FIERY SNAKE ON A POLE?

On the years long trek from Egypt through the almost barren desert of Sinai to the promised land, many of the Israelites began to complain about God and Moses of the difficult conditions of the journey. Their lack of appreciation resulted in Yahweh sending vey aggressive poisonous snakes into their very large entourage to eliminate the ungrateful complainers.   The sick and dying victims realized their sin, repented, and begged their leader Moses to intercede with God on their behalf.  read more

“Test” “All Things” By “The Scriptures” That Bible Scholars Teach

“Test” “All Things” By “The Scriptures” That Bible Scholars Teach

Is the Bible reliable?
Test all things by the scriptures Bible scholars teach!

We can benefit from modern Bible scholarship, because so much has been discovered and learned over time, and ever more so is this true! While modern Bible scholarship is very helpful in many ways, we need to be cautious, as Jesus advised, “be as wary as serpents, and as innocent as doves” (Matthew 10:16 NASB), and test all things by the scriptures that Bible scholars teach. Why do we say this?

THE PROBLEM IS NOTHING NEW

In Jesus’ day there were many Bible among the Jews, especially in Jerusalem. read more

Our Citizenship In Heaven Or Christian Nationalism?

Our Citizenship In Heaven Or Christian Nationalism?

Philippians

Christian Nationalism seems to be coming more and more into the forefront of the news, especially in the United States. How does Christian Nationalism harmonize with Bible principles which indicate that, for a Christian, “our citizenship is in heaven”?

“But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ” (Philippians 3:20 NIV).“‘But our citizenship is in heaven’. This phrase emphasizes the believer’s true identity and allegiance. In the Roman world, citizenship was a prized status, granting rights and privileges. Philippi, a Roman colony, was populated by many Roman citizens who understood the value of this status. Paul uses this concept to remind believers that their ultimate allegiance is not to earthly kingdoms but to the heavenly kingdom. This aligns with Jesus’ teaching in John 18:36, where He states His kingdom is not of this world. The idea of heavenly citizenship also connects to Hebrews 11:13-16, where the faithful are described as strangers and exiles on earth, seeking a better, heavenly country.”—Bible Hub Study Bible read more

Is Salvation Easy?

Is Salvation Easy?

The Second Great Awakening, when altar calls became popular

Some churches, at the close of their Sunday service, have what is known as an “altar call”, where attendees are invited to the front of the church, and speak with the preacher, with some becoming very emotional. After this the preacher sometimes announces to the congregation that ‘so and so’ has been “saved”. Indeed, according to some Christians, all one has to do is “believe in Jesus, and they will be saved”. At that point in time, that person is “saved” for all time, and can never lose their “salvation”. Is this true? Is salvation really that easy, and guaranteed from that point forward, no matter what?  read more

Is Exposing False Teaching Wrongly Judging?
 

“It is God who judges” (Psalm  75:7), ultimately, but is exposing false teaching wrongly judging?

Indeed, “who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall, for the Lord is able to make them stand . . . You, then, why do judge your brother or sister? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat” (Romans  14:4,10 NIV).

However, in certain areas we are called upon to make judgments, reasonable people will agree. For example: read more

What is the true religion? Where is the truth? 

Is there one true denomination or religion that qualifies? Or, is it something else? Let’s search and see.

THE TRUE RELIGION IS  BASED ON THE BIBLE

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16-17) The right religion accepts the Bible, the Old and New Testaments (the 66 books from Genesis to Malachi), as the word of God.  read more

Who is the antichrist?

In the past, much effort has been made to identify “The Antichrist” as being one prominent individual, such as Pompey, Nero, Mohammed, or the Papacy. Today, many preachers and denominations say there is going to appear on the world scene in the future, just before the end, a very charismatic world leader and deceiver that the Bible calls ‘THE ANTICHRIST.”  Such Biblical prognosticators even use scriptures from Daniel about the “little horn,” and Revelation about “a beast coming up out of the sea,” to “prove” their point. They have developed quite an elaborate story about what “The Antichrist” is “predicted” to do in the future. read more

The God-Man

Trinitarianism asserts that Jesus Christ is a “God-man”. However, promoting this “God-man” is actually “antichrist”. How so? Notice:

“God-man (Koinē Greek: θεάνθρωπος, romanized: theánthropos; Latin: deus homo is a term which refers to the incarnation and the hypostatic union of Christ, which are two of mainstream Christianity‘s most widely accepted and revered christological doctrines. The first usage of the term “God-man” as a theological concept appears in the writing of the 3rd-century Church Father Origen:]’This substance of a soul, then, being intermediate between God and the flesh – it being impossible for the nature of God to intermingle with a body without an intermediate instrument –  the God-man is born.'”— Wikipedia read more

Failed Biosphere 2 – Evidence God & Bible Are True

Failed Biosphere 2 – Evidence God & Bible Are True

The failed Biosphere 2 experiment of the early 1990’s illustrates what the Bible said all along. Scriptures are interspersed throughout this article amidst quotes from the BBC article about Biosphere 2. 

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Genesis 1:1).

“How the Biosphere 2 experiment changed our understanding of the Earth—July 5, 2025

In the early 1990s, a small team tried to survive in a hermetically sealed space containing replicas of Earth’s ecosystems. Their trials and discoveries still have repercussions today.
Glittering in the vast expanses of the Arizona desert lies a structure that seems torn straight out of the pages of science fiction.
Inside a massive complex of glass pyramids, domes and towers, spread across three acres (1.2 hectares), stands a tropical rainforest topped by a 25ft (7.6m) waterfall, a savannah and a fog desert. They sit alongside a mangrove-studded wetland and an ocean larger than an Olympic swimming pool which includes its own living coral reef.
It’s seemingly a little capsule of Earth, which is why the structure is called Biosphere 2 – named after our own planet, Biosphere 1.
The desolate landscape forms the perfect backdrop for the futuristic experiment that once took place here. In the early 1990s, eight people locked themselves inside, sealed off from the outside world for two years, to explore the challenges of living in a self-contained system – a prerequisite for building colonies in outer space. They fed themselves from the crops they grew, they recycled their own wastewater and they tended to the plants that produced their oxygen. read more

Jesus’ Opponents

Jesus’ Opponents

Comments 0 Comment
 

Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the greatest man who ever lived had many powerful opponents. Why? Who were Jesus opponents? Lets’s see what the scriptures tell us. The Gospel of Mark  is particularly helpful in this regard.

“Then they came again to Jerusalem. And as He was walking in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders came to Him” (Mark 11:27 Legacy Standard Bible).

and the chief priests, scribes, and elders came up to Him
This group represents the Sanhedrin, the highest Jewish council and court. The chief priests were responsible for temple rituals, the scribes were experts in the Law, and the elders were respected leaders. Their approach to Jesus signifies a confrontation, as they were threatened by His teachings and actions. This encounter is part of a series of challenges to Jesus’ authority, which ultimately leads to His crucifixion. Their questioning reflects the fulfillment of prophecies about the Messiah being rejected by the leaders of His own people (Psalm 118:22).—Bible Hub Study Bible read more
