The 483 Years Prophecy

I often hear people say there's no evidence for Christianity. "You just have to accept it on faith" is something I've heard a lot over the years. You've probably heard similar statements. But is this really true? Is the Bible a work you need to either accept or reject without any evidence of its supernatural origins?

I don't think so. And I believe that anyone who actually studies the Bible with an open mind will agree. How can I be so sure?

Three-Fold Full Assurance

It's wonderful to have the full assurance of salvation, and it is God’s will that every one of us enjoy this assurance. Such security permits believers to live securely in rest and peace.

Toward the close of his life the Apostle John wrote these words. “These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that ye have eternal life…” (I John 5:13).

A New Way of Living

Faith is among the most precious treasures any person can possibly possess. It's a shame that so few understand what the Bible teaches about faith. If they understood faith, its source, and its rewards, they would cease for their futile religious efforts in trying to earn God's favor. They would find the rest that is available only in trusting Christ in all their daily living.

The Peace of God

Many Christians pray for peace for one another – “Lord give him (or her) peace.” But what is the source of peace for believers? Is this a legitimate prayer for believers?

If we believe these verses below we already have  "peace with God" as well as "the peace (that is) of God that passeth understanding...through the Lord Jesus Christ" who lives within us as our present reality.

Faith In The Right Person

Today there's lots of talk about being "spiritual." By this most mean one has some interest in that which is beyond the physical realm. Some may say of another, "He's a Christian you know, he believes in God and is quite spiritual." Well, the Devil believes in God and that does not make the Devil a Christian. For some this leads to the occult and other deceptions, but for some this may be the first indication of a spiritual awakening and that may lead them to find the Lord as their Savior.

Faith

Faith is one of the most precious treasures any person can possibly possess. It is a shame that so few understand what the Bible teaches about faith.

Faith is often confused with presumption, optimism, determination, superstition and imagination. Actually it is simply believing. This is why we read in Rom. 4:5:

“But to him that worketh not, but (rather) believeth on Him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.”
