Why Must Satan Be Released?

'Prophecy Watch' by David C. Grabbe

Satan's release after the Millennium will reveal the Devil's unrepentant rebellion against God and test the character of humanity one last time.


Behind Enemy Lines: Lucifer, Helel, and Satan

Sermonette by Clyde Finklea

Satan was first named Helel, or 'son of the dawn.' When Jerome translated the Hebrew into Latin, he named him Lucifer, or light-bringer, a title of Christ!


Imagination

Sermon by John O. Reid

Satan works on us through our imagination; he broadcasts images to our minds. To counter this, we must resist him, practice humility and draw close to God.


Jesus Christ's Purposeful Manifestation

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

When Jesus Christ appears, having received power promised to Eve's offspring, He will destroy the works of the devil, which includes removing our sins.


Being Alert to Our Enemy

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Like the cycles of the seasons, the events of prophecy follow natural progressions. God has given ample warnings to His prophets to prepare His people.


Confronting the Field of Battle

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

We must put on the entire armor of God, not just the defensive parts. We must proactively rather than reactively assume out part in the spiritual battle.

The Destroyer has mastered the craft of redefinition, blurring boundaries, eliminating the defining lines between evil and good, profane and holy.


The Model Prayer (Part Eight): Testing and Deliverance

Christianity Is a Fight! (Part 3)

We must avoid following the negative examples of our forbears. We have been enlisted into spiritual warfare on three fronts: the heart, the world, and Satan.


Wrong Ideas

Sermonette by James Beaubelle

Over the course of millennia, only a few have been willing to hold to the covenant with God or make the sacrifice for building the faith He requires.


The Bride of Christ

Sermonette by Clyde Finklea

The names of the seven churches of Revelation 2-3 prove equally significant as demonstrating the traits or characteristics of the wise virgins.


The Beginning of Sorrows

Sermon by Clyde Finklea

The "last days" began with Christ's resurrection, when Satan was formally deposed as ruler of earth. God made His kingdom available at that time.


Continuing on to Completion

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

Because of God's grace, those who are called late will reap as much as those who are called early. Whenever we are called, we must continue faithfully.


You Have Not So Learned Christ

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

While the truth of Christ has the power to elevate, our worldly orientation blinds us, dulls our minds, and pulls us downward to abject slavery to sin.
