No Comment Death in Genesis
Death in redemption is often misunderstood because of our misunderstanding of death in Genesis. Most can only perceive that Adam's death is physical or biological per the penalty in Gen. 2:16-17. However, we believe this is shallow reasoning and a failure to take in all the evidence supplied to us in Genesis.
It is assumed that death fell upon God's creation, not only for man but for all the creation as a direct result of sin. This is just plain wrong. It totally ignores the facts of the case. Let's take Genesis 1:11 for example. God said, "Let the earth ...
The Sky Is Falling! The End of the World Is Near, Again?
The End of the World is Almost Here! God will end it all on May 21, 2011. Haven't you heard this? Aren't we about sick of this hype? Don't the people who make this claims know that we can track their record of success (excuse me, failure) from the 80's 90's and early 2000's?

It is a rather recent teaching (past 200 years) in the
area of eschatology (study of last things) which
includes the second coming and its related events.
We believe that Dispensationalism errs by charging God with failure to keep his promise regarding the imminent (from a first century perspective)
establishment of the kingdom.
In that view, the church became a substitute, an interim entity to “pacify” the world until God fulfills his promises to “ethnic” ...

No Comment Eschatology - How Does It All Fit Together?
What is the most simple way to put a jig-saw puzzle together? For me, I like to take the straight edge pieces of the border first.
Doing it in this manner gives helps me to know one critical thing about all the remaining pieces of the puzzle. They fit within the border.
There are four additional studies in this series, “Eschatology – How and Where Do We Put the End Times Puzzle
Pieces Together?”
In other words, not one single piece, no matter how complicated it looks can properly be placed outside that framework. In like manner, ...
