This detailed outline for the end-time prophecies has been divided into thirteen chapters. It should probably be suitable for a diligent student of the Bible who wants to look through the prophecies in an outline format.

The structure of each chapter is in a somewhat loose outline format. That should make it easier ...

The first Christian authors after the New Testament were the Apostolic Fathers, who, as disciples of the Apostles, passed on the Gospel in their writings. These earliest writers of the Church were not a homogeneous group, but preachers from various philosophical backgrounds. They did not seek a scientific justification for Christianity or the truths of faith. In their writings they did not directly raise issues connected to the concept of the divine Logos. The texts of the Apostolic Fathers instead had a pastoral character and were concerned mainly with the problems of their contemporary ...

The concept of the divine Logos was a central topic not only in the Church, but also among the philosophers and theologians of the first centuries of our era. Irenaeus of Lyon, the most significant apologist of that time, focused on human participation in the divine Logos, especially in his main work Adversus haereses. Based on the Holy Tradition and the Scriptures, he offered an orthodox view of the Logos as equal with God, the Creator of the universe. Irenaeus explained that the Logos is inherent in all creatures, but more so in humans and spiritual beings. Because of the divine Logos, ...

The presence of suffering and evil might cause some to question whether God truly remains in control. However, when viewed through the lens of His eternal purposes, it becomes clear that these difficulties are not random acts beyond His power. Instead, God allows evil for a time, using it as a tool to fulfill His greater purposes. Sometimes, this purpose is not immediately visible, and the ways of God remain mysterious to human understanding. Yet, His sovereignty ensures that even the worst tragedies are not outside of His control. Ultimately, God’s control provides comfort, knowing that ...

Why did Jesus die? Did Jesus die so that God could forgive us for our sins? Many believe so. The most ancient view of the atonement teaches that Jesus did not die to appease the wrath of God or gain forgiveness for human sin, but rather to defeat sin, death, and the devil, and reveal to us the unconditional love and grace of God.

Origen believes that our Lord Jesus Christ is the Savior of mankind. Christ who loved humanity, even when they were sinners and enemies, and sacrificed Himself on their behalf, is asking to have a personal relationship with every soul. Therefore, Origen attributes Christ to himself as his own, savior calling Him “my Christ.” The Apostle (St. Paul) declares what is written about Adam and Eve thus: “This is a great mystery but I speak concerning Christ and the church” (Eph. 5:32); He has loved her so that He gave Himself up for her, while she was yet disobedient, even as he says: “...

“Lying thus in the presence of Jesus on the cross, I seemed to die to every earthly thing. At the same time, I committed to Jesus my all, my body, my sicknesses/health, I fully turned over to Jesus to trust Him in through life and through death.” - Harrold Armstrong Baker –Who is this Jesus? He is the Alpha and the Omega; He is the visible manifestation of the invisible God, the Father. Jesus is the first and the last; and He is the Almighty. The "Savior” Jesus Christ is God. The one who sits on the throne in heaven is Jesus, the Lamb. The Savior Jesus Christ is our great God; He is...

Originally written for Jewish converts to Christianity, the book of Hebrews describes the many ways Jesus and the religion of Christianity fulfilled and surpassed the elements and practice of the Jewish faith.

Mary was there the day Jesus was born, and she was there the day he was crucified. Her story is deep and rich and has myriad lessons for any woman - mothers, daughters, sisters, friends. Mary's story reveals that a woman's heart is important to the Father. "When God selected Mary," Hickem says, "He was looking for heart. God set out to find the precise woman who would give her heart to Him, completely and wholly. He wanted a woman with whom He could entrust His perfect Son. This was going to be no ordinary woman."

The Hebrew word, 'elohiym, for "God" was used at least two thousand six hundred and six times in the Old Testament. Its first use in the scriptures was in Genesis 1:1. The Hebrew word, yhwh, for "LORD" was used six thousand five hundred and nineteen times in the Old Testament. Its first use in the scriptures was in Genesis 2:4-5. Those two Hebrew words when put together become yhwh 'elohiym and form the expression "LORD God." That combination appears five hundred and nineteen times in the Old Testament. But each of those words was also used separately throughout the scriptures with other ...
