Zechariah “Return to me and I will return to You” says the Lord

Zechariah received a revelation from God. After the fall of Jerusalem, the Israelites were taken into captivity by Babylon where they served them as slaves for seventy years as was prophesied by Jeremiah. After the forefathers of Israel continually ignored God, Israel finally got what it deserved.
God told Zechariah that God still loved Israel and wanted to restore them to the original purpose for which God had intended all along. All that God required was that Israel turn back to Him.
“Return to me and I will return to You”.

Delays in receiving the Holy Spirit after apparently Believing

Why does Receiving the Spirit not always immediately follow apparent believing?
Baptism in the Holy Spirit is how we become a Child of God. There are many manifestations of Baptism in the Spirit. Receiving the Spirit (another term for Baptism in the Spirit) is clearly linked to believing.
The disciples had to wait until the Spirit was given at Pentecost but now the Holy Spirit is available to all who believe in Jesus for the forgiveness of sins.
Why is it then that some people do not seem to receive the Holy Spirit immediately after apparently Believing in God?

“Born Again” includes New and Old Covenant Believers

Part1 “Born Again” includes New and Old Covenant Believers

Part2 – “Born Again” includes New and Old Covenant Believers

Born Again was a new term that was introduced by Jesus that includes both New and Old Covenant believers. Baptism in the Spirit and Circumcision by the Spirit are both types of regeneration. Nobody can enter the Kingdom of God, much less see it unless they are Born Again. When we believe in God and make Jesus our Lord and Saviour, He baptizes us with his Spirit which makes us a Child of God. Nobody can see God unless He first opens their eyes, their ears and their minds.

Baptism in the Holy Spirit is Regeneration (Rebirth / Born Again)

Baptism in the Holy Spirit is Regeneration (Rebirth / Born Again)

‘Baptism in the Holy Spirit’ is the same as ‘Regeneration’ (‘Rebirth’ or being ‘Born Again’). You cannot be a Christian without it. We are baptized in the Holy Spirit when we believe in Jesus for the forgiveness of sins. God puts His Spirit within us so that we can become a child of God.  The Spirit convicts us when we do the wrong thing and gives us peace when we are in the will of God  (if He is living in us).

Geology, Giants, Dinosaurs, Science and the Flood Part 1

Dinosaurs, Geology & The Flood Part1

The Biblical account of the flood is entirely consistent with scientific evidence including the dinosaurs, giants, fossils and land formations. (P1) The flood gives us the best explanation of where fossil fuels come from and how the geological layers formed. (P2) Deficiencies in the Big Bang Theory and the theory of evolution are explained.

The Millennium helps us understand God’s plans for Mankind

The Millennium – Introduction – Part 2

The Bible begins and ends with God creating (or recreating) the heavens and the earth the way He intended it to be.
In the third chapter of the Bible (Gen 3), Satan enters to corrupt mankind and lead man away from God’s purposes.
Not surprizingly, it is in the third last chapter of the Bible (Rev 20) that Satan exits (he is thrown into the Lake of Fire along with Hades and death and all those whose names are not in the Book of Life).
In between the first three chapters and the last three chapters of the Bible, God sets about redeeming man and restoring man to his purposes and in so doing, brings Glory to Himself.
If Satan would like to remove one chapter from the Bible, it would be the third last one; the one in which he is judged and thrown into the Lake of Fire.
This is also the Chapter that deals with the Millennium. The Millennium reveals how God deals with His people and the People of the World (ie the Nations).
If Christians are to go to heaven after Christ returns, it will be during the Millennium.
It is during the Millennium that Christians are rewarded for the things that they have done in the body.
When Christ returns at the beginning of the Millennium, the Nations will be sorted into the Sheep (who were kind to God’s people) and the Goats (who persecuted God’s people).
At the End of the Millennium, all enemies are put under Christ’s feet and Jesus hands the Kingdom back to the Father.
God then lives with man in the New Jerusalem on a New Earth surrounded buy the Nations who refused the Mark of the Beast and were kind to God’s people during the Great Tribulation.

The Millennium Fulfills Old and New Testament Prophesy

Millennium – Introduction – Part 3

The Millennium is mentioned six times in the third last chapter of the Bible.
Peter also makes reference to a day being like a thousand years.
God created the world in six days and we are about six thousand years from Adam!
Is Christ about to return? Is the final millennium about to start?
The Millennium is important because it helps tie together all the teachings of the Bible.
Christians will spend eternity with God in the New Jerusalem on a New Earth.
Do born again believers go to Heaven? If so, when? The answer is YES! BORN AGAIN BELIEVERS WILL BE IN HEAVEN DURING THE MILLENNIUM!
How does God deal with the Nations who are not His People? What about the unsaved ones who are kind to God’s people and do not receive the mark of the beast? Answer: the people on Earth during the Millennium are referred to as the Nations. The Nations go on into eternity, but they do not have the same privilages as the people in the New Jerusalem.
How can Christ reign until he has put all things under his feet and then hand the kingdom Back to the Father? Answer: the Millennium.
Who do the believers reign over? Who are they priests too? Who do they have authority over? The answer is THE NATIONS. Who then are the NATIONS?
When do the Believers get their reward? The Answer begins with the MILLENNIUM.

ONLY BORN AGAIN BELIEVERS GO TO HEAVEN AND ONLY BORN AGAIN BELIEVERS WILL BE PART OF THE NEW JERUSALEM (THE WIFE OF THE LAMB)

What’s more, ALL born again believers go to heaven to reign with Christ for the Millennium and then descend to become the New Jerusalem in eternity.
