Satan (Part 2)

Satan uses lies and disinformation to promote self-satisfaction over obedience to God. The way to the kingdom is through self-denial, even suffering unjustly.


Conspiracy Theory (Part Eight)

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

People who are Satan's pawns in this conspiracy have no idea they are being manipulated. The religion of secular humanism binds the enterprise together.


Conspiracy Theory (Part Seventeen)

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Satan's power of persuasion has gone undetected throughout most of human history, largely because God has allowed Satan free access to those not yet called.

Satan has been engineering a conspiratorial plan modeled after God's propensity to work through families, working with familial traits and temperaments.


In the Wake of an Unnatural Disaster (Part Nine)

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

American culture is decidedly non-Christian in its current outlook, as Satan has twisted and distorted the information taught by secular universities.


The Parable of the Wheat and Tares

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

For every pure thing God has created, Satan has manufactured a counterfeit, even passing himself off as an angel of light. He is the master imitator.


Blurring the Lines

Commentary by Joseph B. Baity

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


Purpose-Driven Churches (Part 3)

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

Outcome based religion exalts numerical growth and feeling good over the truth of God, promoting the use of modern psychology over 'divisive' biblical doctrine.

One of Satan's lies is that the time has come for civilization to jettison marriage, procreation, and the family as outmoded relics of a patriarchal past.


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.

We must remain separate from the world, keeping a safe distance from the satanic intrigue served out by the media, trusting only in the pure word of God.


The March Toward Globalism (Part Two)

As parents, we can protect our children from death and destruction if we discourage the self-absorptive pulls through correction and discipline.


Parables of Matthew 13 (Part 2): Leaven

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

The Kingdom of God or of Heaven has past, present, and future aspects. The Kingdom parables primarily provide instruction for the present aspect.


Discouragement

Discouragement paralyzes one's efforts to overcome temptation or to lose patience in a trial, ultimately leading to deterioration or the destruction of faith.


Our Core Business

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by John O. Reid

When corporations get rid of their core business, they become less effective. Likewise when we deviate from our core job, we risk returning to the world.


Facing Times of Stress: Hopeless Regrets

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

It sometimes appears that people outside the church have fewer problems and anxieties, having been spared Satan's onslaught of temptation and deception.


Considered Rather Than Commanded - Choose Life

Sermon by Mark Schindler

As God calls His people, He enables them (through His Spirit) to make considered decisions concerning living His way of life by obeying His commandments.

Redemption is useless to mortal beings without God's gift of eternal life (I Corinthians 15:19), which God made possible through Christ's resurrection.
