SEARCH THIS JOURNAL   SERMONS AND BIBLE STUDIES Acts 9:20 And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God. Bible study fellowship is the only kind of fellowship that honors God. When the Word of God is left out of our gatherings, we dare not claim they are Christian "fellowship." They are only amusement or comic relief. One is holy and the other profane (of this world, though not necessarily sinful). When the Cowboy Church near us has Thursday night bull riding practice, they pretend they are having fellow- ship. This claim is mostly bull because there is no Bible.

For my email address, GO HERE. 1 Timothy 5:18 For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward. THE GOSPEL OF JOHN-- Learn if you are born again... Or, how to be. THE GOSPEL MUCH ASSURANCE-- Answer to cranks and preachers who question your salvation SALVATION'S SOURCE SALVATION IS NOT BASED ON REPENTANCE DELIVERANCE FROM GUILT PREACHING THE GOSPEL VERSUS PREACHING DOUBT Beware of this blasphemous trick TEXTUAL STUDIES Preparation and Study for Spiritual Maturity and Warfare THE EPISTEMOLOGY OF A BIBLE BELIEVER Or, WHAT DO YOU KNOW THAT GOD KNOWS? Epistemology is the study of how we know things. Many Bible believer today know what the Bible teaches ONLY after they "feel" it. This is heresy. This article will force you to face your own method of knowing truth, and if you flunk the biblical standard, you are on your way to becoming a heretic or a general pest in the Lord's Church. SALVATION THROUGH THE STATE The two options are offered by Schirrmacher, the Hegelian left/right state which is the only source of salvation, and the Reconstructed State built by the zeal of biblical Christians. Neither is the model that finds Christ ruling from his throne in Jerusalem. The good intentions of Reconstructionists fly in the face of revealed biblical Truth. SANCTIFICATION -- As the world draws on and on downward at war with the holiness of God, the Bible believer needs to know that God is the only standard of holiness.

THE EPISTLE OF JAMES--  By Pastor Steve Van Nattan THE EPISTLE OF FIRST PETER--  By Pastor Steve Van Nattan RESOURCE MENU POWERFUL CHAPTERS OF THE BIBLE Beyond verse and topical studies, chapter study is the most contextual way to learn what God tells us in the Bible. Only book study is more complete, but book study demands much time. These studies will help you deal with life issues, prophetic destiny, and the sorrows you may face. PSALM 91 EZEKIEL 38-39 THE GOSPEL OF JOHN -- Complete book study TOPICAL STUDIES What I call my University of Christian Virtues THE HOLY HATRED OF GOD WHAT IS THE GLORY OF GOD? SOCIAL ENTROPY AND THE EVIL HEART OF MAN SATAN-- WHAT HE CAN AND CANNOT DO THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST LOADED ARTICLES IN THIS JOURNAL This has been a rather trying study. I felt that Satan is presented too theologically by most Bible teachers. So, I did a study as near to real experience as possible while using Scripture heavily. May God give you victory.

Must see. Reader Comment: I just read your new article "Donkey Dung and Lion's Fat." Just wanted to say Amen, and thanks again for telling it like it is. You're so very right about folks in "Independent, Fundamental, etc. etc. etc." churches. Most of the brethren I know have either left these churches, or are miserable while still enduring them. A perfect example of why is found at http://www.thekingjamesbible.us/Current.htm. This guy from Gainesville, FL, whom I know personally, claims he is "the man of God" and that only one other "man of God" outranks him. That other one being Dr. Ruckman. Now this feller from Gainesville has put up a 6 hour sermon on his web site preaching that Dr. Ruckman is demon possessed. By implication, that conveniently makes this pastor the chief "man of God." Comment: Editor-- This is a method used by Marxists after a coup. The leader kills off everyone down to the rank below himself, and thus he is left the ranking officer.

In 1892 she warned that Satan wanted to take the church and "lead them on a long journey" (Letter 19, 1892). Later, in 1896, she saw that if "Satan can come into the very temple of God, and manipulate things as he pleases, the time of preparation will be prolonged" (Letter 83, 1896). Years later Taylor Bunch claimed that Ellen White had said: "If God�s people had gone to work as they should have done right after the Minneapolis meeting in 1888, the world would have been warned in a few years and the Lord would have come."
