Gospel of the Hebrews

PSALM 1 SUBJECT: Righteous vs Ungodly Living Subtitle: What is your position? Purpose: The acceptance of God’s word is profitable to those that believe in His God sent. (Jn. 6:29, EVS) THREE POINTS: POINT 1: The righteous obeys God’s commands (Ps.1:1, EVS) POINT 2: The righteous knows God’s word (Ps. 1:2-3, EVS) POINT 3: The righteous serves God faithfully (Ps.4-6 EVS) Life appears to have a lot of choices, but in reality there is really only two. We can obey and win or disobey and lose.…

J.R.R. Tolkien once guaranteed that, "The Lord of the Rings is obviously an on a very basic level religious and Christian work; unwittingly so at to start with, yet intentionally in the update". This is borne out in an examination of his labor of love, the making of the legendary history of Middle-earth. ·: Magic :· "Enchantment" in the writing of Tolkien 's Middle-earth is firmly related neither to that rehearsed in the mysterious nor to the illusions of performers. It is not the same as…

all created things; then again, who wouldn’t? Also, I didn’t realize that these fundamental ideologies were cornerstones of Judaism, nor did I realize that it was an outgrowth of Judaism. In addition to ideology, I found is essentially Rastafarian gospel music; the ever present Jah figure being the Rastafari name for G-d and Selassie being the Rastafari prophet calling for all Africans to return to Africa. Additionally, fundamental to Rastafarianism is an emphasis on veganism, called ital, and…

refute it properly. Before looking at the various aspects of the doctrine of “Realized Eschatology”, it is helpful to understand the origin of such teaching. In recent years, this eschatological theory was promoted and popularized by Max R. King, a gospel…

The fourth section of Matthew’s account of Jesus’ temptation is an attempt by Satan to get Jesus to worship him. MacArthur writes that “Satan drops his pretenses…and finally reveals his supreme purpose: to induce Jesus Christ to worship him.” Satan shows Christ all the kingdoms of the cosmos their glory and offers to Christ what he has shown Him if Christ were to fall down and worship Satan himself. It must be noted that to some extent, Satan’s claims have merit, as he is referred to in John…

The main Christian text, the Holy Bible also preaches a relatively nonviolent agenda, even to those of different faiths. It is mentioned in two different gospels, Matthew 5:43-48 and Luke 6:27-36, that Christians should love their enemies. Stories like the “Good Samaritan” that show the importance of respecting all human life. Jesus also tells his followers to love their neighbours. Critics of Christianity…

Christians quote various scriptures, but often struggle with living a life of integrity. The question we should ask ourselves as Christian leaders is "What does the Bible say about integrity?" The Bible makes us understand that In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word translated “integrity” meaning “the condition of being without blemish, completeness, perfection, sincerity, soundness, uprightness, wholeness.” Integrity in the New Testament means “honesty and good…

Some would even go so far to say that even those who reject God here and now will be given another chance when they die—or that God will just forgive them and take them to heaven. Scripture rejects this as we read in Hebrews 9:27 that it is appointed for man to die once and after that to face judgment. Jesus said many times that the wicked will be ushered into eternal punishment in hell. Hell is the expression of God’s wrath on the sinner. We read this in Scripture where…

Growing up as a Jew enmeshed in the conservative movement, I knew very little of actual practical Judaism; practical in the sense of what a Jew actually practices in daily and yearly observances, such as the Sabbath- otherwise known as Shabbat, praying three times a day- morning services, called Shacharit, afternoon services, Mincha, and night services, Maariv, as well as keeping kosher= not mixing milk and meat in anything and waiting one hour after eating dairy before eating meat, and six…
