For God’s “Prayer Warriors” Terms and Rules of Enemy Engagement Our Arsenal of Major Weapons of Our Warfare “Know Your Enemy” is a concept taught in a book entitled The Art Of War, written 2,700 years ago by a famed Chinese military general named Sun Tzu. This ancient book is still studied in our UnitedContinue reading “Soldiers Training Manual”

Hidden Scroll
The sun began to slip below the far horizon, it’s many-hued rays fanned out across the darkening sky. Turning and gazing back from the high, wind-swept, rocky promontory where they paused momentarily, the six dust-covered, weary travelers could see myriads of scattered spots of refracted sunlight sparkling like liquid diamonds on the waves of theContinue reading “Hidden Scroll”
Bible Overview
Recently, some of my students both (pre-followers of Jesus and new followers of Jesus) asked me to teach them a brief overview of the Bible. They wanted the Bible “in a nutshell.” They didn’t want an in-depth history of the Old and New Testaments, nor did they want a verse-by-verse exposition of the Bible. TheyContinue reading “Bible Overview”
The Rapture of the Church
[NOTE: This teaching originally appeared first as some recorded spoken messages in the 1950’s, as some written articles in the 1960’s, then put together as a pamphlet written in the early 1970’s, by Bill Britton of Springfield, Missouri. Bill was one of the first evangelical, bibliocentric followers of Jesus in our era to question theContinue reading “The Rapture of the Church”
Imagine That
I’m going to teach you a quick lesson in human makeup. God created humans as three-part beings, somewhat fashioned after his three-part being–The Trinity, Father, Son and Spirit–3 persons, yet one God; one God, yet 3 persons. Humans are created with a spirit, a soul, and a body. Think of a bullseye or a targetContinue reading “Imagine That”
Creating My Future
Both my past and my future begin right now, this very instant. My past is ever swirling and eddying behind me, and my future ever beginning, ever unfolding endlessly before me, ever becoming my past, ever changing . . . God and I ever co-creating it according to his eternal purposes for my life. Previously,Continue reading “Creating My Future”
Beyond the Far Shores of Time
Let’s examine for a few moments the concepts of time and eternity—as taught by both modern science and the Bible. They are both integral parts of the broader truth of God’s very own eternal LIFE within his sons and daughters. I’ll attempt to teach these two concepts as somewhat separate from one another, but, ofContinue reading “Beyond the Far Shores of Time”
Anastasia
Everything ever written about Jesus has been written since his resurrection. The resurrection of Jesus sets Him apart from all other religious leaders in all of history: they’re still dead. He’s alive! Take away Jesus’ resurrection and your faith in Him collapses. Your faith is in vain. Nothing about Jesus would be worth discussing orContinue reading “Anastasia”
Hope In History
[NOTE: This teaching supplements and “piggybacks” on my friend Gerry Beauchemin’s groundbreaking book Hope For All. I strongly urge you to obtain a copy of Gerry’s startling book at hopeforallfellowship.com or amazon.com] There’s an ancient teaching that was almost abandoned or set aside as being incorrect about 1,500 years ago, but was resurrected in partContinue reading “Hope In History”
Religious Dogma
To begin this teaching, I’ll define “dogma” as shown in most dictionaries: “Dogma is when an individual or group teaches you something in an attempt to convince you their view is authoritative or the only truth about a subject—that their belief or view is the only correct one.” Dogma can be asserted or presented inContinue reading “Religious Dogma”
