It seems very possible God has once again revealed something NEW to us, and important. Actually the TRUTH—which has become the accepted and official teaching of this Church—started under most unusual conditions. This is GOD'S Church, and it, in this present era, rose up in this world whose God is ...

What are you waiting for?" said Ananias to Saul. "Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away..." (Acts 22:16, NIV). Now why would a Christian layman in the first century say a thing like that to Saul of Tarsus? Only three days before, Saul had been struck down by Jesus of Nazareth on his way to Dam ...

I want to get back to a subject I was talking to you about the last time I was here, about three weeks ago. And I'd like to turn to a couple of scriptures, first in the 8th chapter of Romans. Let's get to something a little more spiritual. In Romans the 8th chapter verse 7 speaks of the carnal m ...

A veritable explosion in 20th-century Bible translations is occurring. Some are excellent; some tragic. Explained here is the way to choose good translations. In this fast-paced 20th century the primary languages of the Church members are English, followed by Spanish, French, Afrikaans and German. Y ...

Why do the churches of traditional Christianity observe Sunday? The people of the Muslim religion, the entire Arab world, observe Friday, and the Jewish people, of Judaism the religion of Judaism, observe Saturday. There is one God, and yet we have so many religions and so many beliefs. There is one ...

Shortly after 7:00 A.M. on the third day of January 1979, I drove down broad Colorado Boulevard in the small California city of Pasadena. The sun, which had shown with a dazzling brightness only two days before on the Tournament of Roses parade along the same thoroughfare, had disappeared. In its pl ...

This is a special personal letter to you members of God's Church, written in between monthly Co-Worker letters. I recently visited my brother, Dwight, who composed all of the music in our Church hymnals except for three or four songs we felt worthy of being included. He has devoted the last 35 yea ...

In the book of Revelation we find a disturbing vision of four fearsome horsemen (Rev. 6:1-8). Each of these horsemen is a symbol of the four major punishments to be inflicted upon a rebellious mankind - probably in the not-too-distant future! Each represents the final, end-time culmination of the ma ...

When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria, for they commit falsehood," (Hosea 7:1). Here the names of Israel, Ephraim, and Samaria, are used interchangeably for the one kingdom. It bears the name Ephraim, because it is the Birthr ...

Greetings, brethren. The doomsday clock has just been set up by the atomic scientists from 4 to 3 minutes before midnight. The eleventh hour struck some time ago. World leaders are perplexed. They're frightened. They have no solutions. The unthinkable has become very thinkable, and hundreds of mil ...

I find it impossible to believe that a minister of Jesus Christ could at the same time be a THIEF - STEALING FROM GOD! Nearly all ministers and 98 percent of brethren have been LOYAL. Yet during recent years "liberals" have risen up in the Church, watering down the laws of God. God says, "If there a ...

We're in the world of modern science. Science has come along in about the past 150 years as the 'new messiah.' Science and technology have offered to put an end to all of our ills, and all of our troubles, our heartaches, and all of the evils in the world. But it seems that the principle contr ...

Question: Where is "Easter" mentioned in the Bible? Answer: From a child you probably believed that "Easter" signified the resurrection of Christ. For 1800 years the Western world has been taught that Jesus rose from the dead on Sunday morning. These are merely some of the fabler ...

I had just turned on television, the NBC Tonight Show was on and Johnny Carson was interviewing a movie star and suddenly I thought will who else pray tell but a show biz personality could Johnny Carson interview anyway? Who else was of any importance, or would be considered of importance to the vie ...
