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!

Worthy to Take the Scroll

Though often skipped, Revelation 5 narrates an event of tremendous magnitude: the opening of the divine scroll. What is the scroll, and why did John weep?

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.

Worthy to Take the Scroll

The sealed scroll most resembles a title deed, which can only be opened by the redeemer of the property. The rightful owner of the title deed is Jesus Christ.

Holiness (Part 2)

Holy things are set apart from the rest, consecrated, sanctified, and transcendentally separate. God wants to transform us into that very image.

The Sovereignty of God (Part Ten)

Like Job, we must surrender to God's will and purpose for our lives, realizing that both pleasant and horrendous times work for our spiritual development.

Sovereignty and Its Fruit: Part Ten

Once we accept God's sovereignty, it begins to produce certain virtues in us. Here are four of these byproducts of total submission to God.

Wilderness Wanderings (Part Three) - Handpicked Children

God has allowed carnal nature to remain in His people so He can determine whether they seriously want to defeat the downward pulls of the flesh.

A Contrite Heart

The contrite or brokenhearted person finds special favor with God, and a humble or contrite spirit is indeed a precursor to forgiveness and spiritual healing.

Living By Faith: Humility

Paradoxically, God stoops to us when we humble ourselves. Humility produces honor from God; if we humble ourselves, He will hear us.

Then Comes the End

Christ's return marks the beginning of the end of mankind's problems. However, His return will not be the final end, which comes when God is all in all.

Using Power Righteously (Part Two)

God has singled each one of us out individually, calling us, gifting us with capabilities, and preparing us for eternal life as members of His family.

What Is the Prophesied 'Pure Language'? (Part Two)

A culture that is far from God has a debased language, but the real problem with the Jews of Isaiah's day was that they were going astray in their hearts.

Sanctification and Holiness (Part 4)

The bronze altar, made with the censers from the rebels, was a reminder of the folly of rebelling against holy things, replacing God's standards with human ones.
