Saul then sent the executioners, led by Doeg the Edomite, to kill all the other people in the little priestl ...

Strange as it may seem, the Peruvian Indians preserved their history back to Babel. Pre-Inca records specifically refer to and date correctly the reigns of Cush, Nimrod and Horus, or Gilgamesh! Every generation of rulers over the children of Tiras are named to the coming of the Incas. Yet today all ...

Will those in hell leave hell at the time of the resurrection or are they confined eternally to hell, so that they shall be UNABLE to take part in the resurrection?

In our previous study, we discovered the astounding fact that God is in the process of expanding His Family - that God is actually reproducing Himself through human beings.

To show his appreciation to Abner for helping unite Israel and for bringing Michal to Hebron, David prepared a feast for him and his men. Thus David's first wife was at long last given back to him, and at the same time Abner had the vengeful satisfaction of ruining Ish-bosheth's chances of becom ...

Our First Child: FOR SOME four months after our wedding day we lived on the North Side of Chicago, near the lake. During that brief period we had occupied two furnished apartments and one furnished room. About Thanksgiving time, 1917, we moved into a single room on the South Side. We sub-rented this ...

In the first article in this series, we learned just what parables are and why Jesus used them. We also saw that there are three distinct sets or groupings of parables, each having a different theme. This revealing article examines the first six parables of the first set. AS JESUS sat in a ...

How DOES one know he has been "CALLED" of God? THOUSANDS say they have been-some say they've "felt" that way; that "God laid it upon their hearts," or that they received a VERY SPAISHUL (special) burden" from the Lord. Did they really? How does God call His TRUE ...

Workers in Poland are threatening to unravel Soviet dominance over the political affairs of Eastern Europe. Will Moscow have to make a deal with the West to preserve its interests? If so, the political map of Europe will be altered beyond recognition-with grave consequences for Britain and the Unite ...

FROM JUDAH had come a prophet who troubled King Jeroboam of Israel at Bethel. He predicted that one day the bones of the false priests would be burned on the altar there. (I Kings 13:1-6.) On his way back to his home in the nation of Judah, he stopped to rest in the shade of an oak tree. There he wa ...

Another college year is ENDING! I can hardly believe it! Time whips by, it seems, faster and faster. Graduation here at Pasadena and at Big Sandy is this Friday — and in England the following Friday.
