Jesus Christ is alive. He rose from the dead. He's been living these 1950 and more years, and yet the world: They hear a lot about Him. They don't see Him. They hear about a smart aleck Jesus who came, who knew more than His Father, did away with His Father's Commandments. His Father was suppo ...

You live in a world of awesome progress, but paradoxically, of appalling evils. WHY? It's a world held captive, deceived into loving its captivity. Deliverance from kidnap in deception, human discontent, suffering and death hastens nearer. World peace, happiness and joy are just around the corner. ...

Thousands have asked us. According to Jesus, there is a simple way to identify a real Christian. Do you know what it is? WHAT is a Christian? What is true Christianity? It is time to clear away the uncertainty. Why Such Confusion? Jesus clearly explained what a real Christian is like. He left no dou ...

Romans 8:7 The carnal mind is enmity against God. Now that word "enmity" we don't use very much any more. Remember the King James translation is translated back in 1611, and that's about 350 years ago; and in today's language we would say hostile. The natural mind - as Satan has influenced tha ...

If Jesus Christ were here in person, He would still be observing the same customs He observed when He was on earth as the "Son of man." Believe it or not, He would keep the Passover just as He kept it with His disciples, observe the Feast of Pentecost and the Feast of Tabernacles! For decades the Ch ...

Church In Wilderness: As a result of the Council of Nicea, 325 A.D., the great false church commenced 1,260 years of tribulation against God's Church (Rev. 12:6). The true church fled into the valleys and mountains of Europe and Asia Minor. So it isn't going to be as obvious as it was when we re ...

One cold January day in 1917 Herbert Armstrong journeyed out to a tiny crossroads hamlet thirty miles southeast of Des Moines to visit an aunt who was recovering from a bout with Pneumonia. His mother had written asking him to see how her twin sister, Emma Morrow, was faring. Dutifully, he went. The ...

Easter and Lent were celebrated 4000 years ago in Babylon. Yet ROME introduced these customs into the Christian Church. How and when did Rome become the "modern Babylon"? THERE are over 750 million professing Christians in the world today - everyone of them, in greater or lesser degree, pr ...

This is the true story of the true Church, founded A.D. 31 by Jesus Christ, the unique and only voice giving a hopeless world its only and sure hope - the soon-coming peaceful world tomorrow! The visitor, to put it mildly, was astonished! He was witnessing something he had never expected to see.... ...

Brethren, I think there is one thing I think we need to be very especially concerned about, now we are at the very end time. There's only a very short time now before the Great Tribulation, and it's going to be a greater time of trouble than you've probably even imagined. Are you really a Chri ...

It has been almost a year since I have been here, around 11 months; and since then this Church has really been getting back on the track. At that time I said something about Satan being ready to strike at this Church, and he is always ready to strike at this Church. He wants to destroy this Church. ...

Jesus Christ will soon return as Supreme Ruler to establish the world-ruling Kingdom of God. But what about YOU? Will you be one of Christ's assistants in the World Tomorrow? How can one be TRAINED to rule with Him? ...

Well, greetings to all of you. This is the third time I've spoken here since I've come back to Pasadena, but the first time to the Church. The other two times were at college forums. I've had a little attack of the Asian Flu again. I seem to get that about once every seven or eight years; and ...

Why The Church? One cannot comprehend the real purpose and function of the Church without an understanding of Old Testament ISRAEL. Ancient Israel was both Church and State. It was one of the world's nations, called the kingdom of Israel. But it also was a Church, called the Congregation of Israel ...

Now these annual Festivals have very, very great meaning. And, you know for a long time I found that many of our ministers were not preaching about the meaning of these days - they'd preach on any old subject at the Feast of Tabernacles or at any other Holy Day. Well, I don't think this is happe ...
