At the rapture of the church, are the sinners raptured first? If you don't pay close attention to the context, you might think so. This parable refers to the kingdom of heaven, not the kingdom of God.

One thing that over 99% of pastors get wrong is the biblical definition of 'faith.' Faith is not just a body of belief in an institution or person, but a deep abiding trust in their character and their intentions.

Just as the strength of our outward man has to be renewed, our inward man has to as well, or we will be overcome. Throughout the Old and New Testament, men of God were strengthened by angels. There is another way that we are strengthened however, communing with the spirit of God through His word.

To be saved from hell is to be forgiven of our sins. But can we lose that forgiveness, and lose our salvation if we don't forgive others?

There are no Christians in the Kingdom of Heaven. That is because the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven are NOT the same thing. The Kingdom of Heaven can be taken by force and ruled by wicked men. The Kingdom of God can never be assailed and is a spiritual kingdom. Understanding this difference is key to understanding the Bible.

Years ago, Mike decided to treat people that he was witnessing to as members of the body of Christ already; the goal of witnessing in the first place.

After the fall of man, the Bible says that every imagination of man's heart was evil, and it repented the Lord that he had made man on Earth (Genesis 6:5-6). So God destroyed every living thing, except for Noah and his family. The Bible promises that he will again destroy the Earth, and that man's heart will again imagine only evil continually. Michael Pearl teaches through the Bible about this time coming again upon the Earth.

With the war in the Middle East, there is no shortage of failed predictions about fulfilling Biblical prophecy. But the war prophesied thousands of years ago by the prophet Ezekiel is yet future and not currently underway.

In Matthew 5:18, Jesus said 'For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.' So if the law cannot pass away, is the believer still required to keep the law of Moses? The law will never pass away, but those in Christ, have passed away; being baptized into His death.
