“1 Peter 2:5 – In His Hands, We Are Built”
Messages
In history this Day of Atonement had deep and special meaning. It does today as well. It includes the fact that our sins are forgiven by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, but it goes way beyond that. God’s plan of salvation requires what the Day of Atonement has to offer…we’ll examine this Holy Day more closely in this message.
Does God just want us to fast so He can see us suffer? Certainly not! God is wanting us to consider the status of our relationships with other people and our own state of mind.
The Feast of Trumpets. We Do Have a Truth Based “Reporter’s Perspective” about What is to Come in the Future for Mankind.
Christ came to preach a message to the masses that was hidden in what the Bible calls “parables.” We examine the reason for why Christ spoke to the masses in parables and why he told his disciples in private the interpretations. We finish by explaining God’s reason for doing this which is greatly encouraging for all of mankind.
Today, we will learn to understand that God takes care of us always as it is His will. More importantly, God is in control of everything that happens every single second in the universe, and for that reason, in our lives, too.
When we consider all the things that will happen when Christ returns, the Fall Feast Days and the upcoming Feast of Tabernacles will focus on many aspects, indeed they will. One of the aspects we sometimes neglect to think about during this time of year is the Marriage of Christ to the Church at Christ’s Return.
Paul wrote his last words to Timothy in the second book of Timothy. We can see that he was thinking about the coming Fall holy days and was hoping to see Timothy during them. Paul refers to the Feast of Trumpets in several verses that will be discussed.
There are many things we do in life, that often we have no idea as to why we do them. And, we’ll go a step further. What and why do we believe what we do, and why do we then keep doing such? What do we see from scripture regarding these questions?
We often view humility as something that is needed for those who we perceive as conceited and puffed up, not for us. It is human not to look inside ourselves and realize that we also are in need of humility. We review scripture showing that God requires humility for every level of humanity, from the one who rules kingdoms, to the average person.
