Stephen and the New Deal

Over the centuries, God has been disappointed by mankind over and over again. One man who did not disappoint was the deacon Stephen. Here's why.

Faithful Stephen

Christ does not want His staff to exercise Gentile patterns of tyrannical, top-down leadership, but to humbly serve people without striving for greatness.

God Is Still on His Throne

The LORD is on His throne in Heaven, the location before which God's resurrected saints will occupy on the Sea of Glass.

God is Still on His Throne!

God's Sea of Glass (Part 1)

Unlike tumultuous waves, the sea of glass before God's throne is tranquil and serene. Before we can stand on this sea of glass, we must be set apart and cleansed.

Dominion and Glory and a Kingdom

When Jesus told the religious leaders they would see Him seated at God's right hand and coming on the clouds, He did not mean they would be alive at His return.

Dominion and Glory and a Kingdom

Christ's words at His trial regarding sitting at God's right hand and coming on clouds sound like His return, but they have another fulfillment altogether.

Image and Likeness of God (Part Two)

Jesus did not take on a different shape or form when He was transfigured. Taking on the image of the heavenly does not vaporize one into shapeless essence.

Magic Doesn't Work (Part Two)

People are attracted to magic because they think it brings quick results, bringing them their desires, erasing their fears and providing for their needs.

Accessing the Invisible God

Because of the testimony of the creation, people are without excuse for not knowing that God exists and sustains His creation. God is not very far away.
