Every minister of Jesus Christ has been given the same job description. The promise of inheriting immortality and the kingdom is on to One Seed and that Seed is Jesus Christ. Therefore we are not surprised with the job description to the ministry—a minister’s job is not finished until all members conform to the image of Jesus Christ. What does bei...

The Sabbath and Feasts of God are commanded assemblies. There are at least 4 reasons we assemble and refrain from staying home. Our recent experience with not being able to assemble is a foretaste of government control, namely the prophesied Beast’s “mark” that will impede God’s people from assembling.

Technically salt does not lose it’s saltiness so what did Christ mean when He said, we are the salt of the earth and if salt loses its flavor it is good for nothing?

What do we think of when hearing phrases such as 9-11 or taxes or COVID19? Most often we think of the here and now that affects our present life. How does God view the problems of this life—perhaps differently than we do?

Ruth falls in the Feast section of the “Writings!” It’s the story of Pentecost. Why? The Hebrew word “goel” is a key word translated 13 times in this book as kinsman or redeemer. How does the book of Ruth tell the story of Christ as our redeemer by the power of the Holy Spirit.

God tells us to preach “in season.” The Holy Day seasons reveal the plan of God; keeping Satan’s seasons blinds our spiritual understanding. Additionally, keeping Pentecost reminds us that God opened the door for all mankind to become the Israel of God and enter God’s kingdom.
