What you believe, is limited by what you know.

The Truth cannot share it's place

"It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honor of kings is to search out a matter"

Proverbs 25:2

The Purpose of This Site

    "For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But whoever does not have them is nearsighted and blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their past sins." 2 Peter 1:5-9

       Many years ago I set out on a mission to find holes in the Bible and other various so called "Religions". I was on a mission for the truth and I didn't care what I was going to find. However, when it came to examining the Bible, I began to find way more proof for it, than I found against it. I also found that the other major religion's books were altered copies from the Bible, but with the importance of Jesus removed. Much of what is on this site, is what I found when I did that research. This site provides all kinds of verifiable evidence that anyone can check for themselves. Many people have spent a lifetime researching these individual topics, and because of that many call Jesus, God.

​

       I have always felt that if people just knew about all the amazing information out there, they would believe Jesus is God, come as a man to make a better covenant for us, just as the old covenant says he would. However, once you do find belief in the Bible, trying to hand this knowledge to someone has a bad habit of being received as biased. I have been called brainwashed, even though I started out by trying to prove it all wrong on my own. I have always been willing to read and consider new information, but those that aren't, are quick to close up, and write you off.  It would seem that what stops most people from learning anything new, is that they're "too busy", or they're proud and think they know enough already to leave it alone. It is certainly worth dropping those barriers to see if there is any credible proof that the Bible is true. Especially, on account of what it says. We had all better find out if it really is the word of God, and acknowledge him and what he has done.

​

       Knowledge can save your life according to the Bible, it can also save your afterlife the moment you believe Jesus is the son of God, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  If you keep digging you will find God is completely real, and that the Bible really was more than just some people making a book. It could have only been inspired by the one and only creator of the universe, who is outside of time. Read his word, (especially starting with the new covenant/testament, which applies to us now) and you will learn he really is love itself. In learning that, you begin to find reason after reason to love him back. As your faith grows, you want to obey him and listen to what he says, because it's all real, and he really does love you. There is indeed a purpose to this life after all.

       If you think you're an accident evolved from an explosion from nothing, or you think you can worry about where you're going once you're dead, if you think you're prepared to sufficiently answer the gatekeeper as you pass into the next realm, you aren't alone. It's easy to follow the society in place, go with the flow and do nothing. However, if you suspect there is a designer and a reason we are all here, all you have to do is seek the truth. The truth has an amazing ability of leaving evidence to examine.

​

      We are born into a world with the ability to make decisions between right and wrong. As soon as freewill began, the spectrum of choice existed. Real love cannot exist without a choice, but with a choice, comes the ability to make bad ones. This world is not only a realm for us to live, love, build character, and make the most important decision of our life, by finding belief in God's One and only Son, but it will serve as an eternal example of what happens when you allow just a little sin in. It sends out corruption like a cancer that only gets worse over time.

​

     It is my hope to bring people to the truth of Jesus, because in the end, the truth is all that matters, and the truth is our only reality. If you honestly seek the truth, you will find it, and if you choose him, you will be in his love for all of eternity.

Major Biblical Doctrines:

The doctrines of the Bible are interwoven, and they have been designed in such a way, that if our understanding is off-point, then it won’t mesh with the other doctrines. As a result of this intermeshing structure, they will become contradictory to one another, if one’s understanding is not correct on any single doctrine, and so this will cause a doctrinal conflict. Praise God he designed it in this brilliant structure. Because of that, we can cross check our understanding of what has been written.

Foundational Church group is simply, Christian

​

1 Corinthians 1:10-13

 I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought. My brothers, some from Chloe’s household have informed me that there are quarrels among you. What I mean is this: Individuals among you are saying, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,”a or “I follow Christ.” Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized into the name of Paul?

​

1 Corinthians 3:11

For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.

 

1 Timothy 2:5

For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men,

the Man Christ Jesus,

​Not Mary, Peter, "saints'', or angel.

​

Saved through faith alone in Jesus.

See the Salvation page for a thorough exegesis.

John 3:16

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.​

 

Ephesians 2:8-9

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

​

Romans 10:9-13

that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”​​

​

John 6:39-40

This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

Dispensational Ages

There was a time when God walked with men Adam, Enoch, Noah. That time has stopped.

There was a time when levitical law was active. That time is over. 

There was a time when circumcision was a requirement. It no longer is. 

There was a time of temples and the Prophets, that time has stopped (for now.) 

There was a time the Holy Spirit had not been given to us. The Holy Spirit has now been given to us at Pentecost.  

There was a time when water baptism and repentance was the way to be saved. We are now baptized by the Holy Spirit, and saved by grace through faith. 

Acts 11:16

       "Then I remembered what the Lord had said: John baptized with water, BUT YOU will be baptized with the Holy Spirit."

Acts 19:1- 5

“While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul took the road through the interior and arrived at Ephesus. There he found some disciples and asked them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” They answered, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” So Paul asked, “Then what baptism did you receive?” “John’s baptism,” they replied.” “Paul said, “John’s baptism WAS a baptism of repentance. He told the people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus.” On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.”

​

There was a time for the Old Covenant, and now we are under the New Covenant, and the age/dispensation of grace thanks to Christ's last sacrifice.

Things change according to God's significant decrees and actions, and they are going to change 3 more times.

1.) The 70th week of Daniel has been postponed until the 7 year peace agreement is confirmed by the Antichrist. 

(What applies to them, that doesn't apply to those before the rapture, is this: If you receive the mark, you cannot be saved.)

2.) The millennial kingdom comes after the final week. 

3.) The new Heavens and a new Earth come after that. 

The 70th Week of Daniel is the 7-Year Tribulation yet to happen

Revelation is not just Symbolism and allegory

This refers to the final "week" (7 years) of Daniel's prophecy as a future period of tribulation focused on Israel, divided into two 3.5-year halves (2520 total days based on 360-day prophetic years).

  • Daniel 9:24-27 (70 weeks decreed, final week with covenant and abomination of desolation, and a stop to sacrifices.)

  • Jeremiah 30:7 (How awful that day will be! No other will be like it. It will be a time of trouble for Jacob/Israel, but he will be saved out of it.)

  • Revelation 11:3 (1260 days two witnesses)

  • Revelation 12:6 (1260 days in the wilderness)

  • Matthew 24:15-28  (great tribulation)

  • 2 Thessalonians 2:3-12 (rebellion and lawless one revealed)

  • Revelation 7 (144,000 from Israel evangelizing)

  • Revelation 14:6-7 (angel proclaiming gospel)

  • Daniel 12:1-2 (And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation, even to that time.)

​

The 24 Elders Are the Church

The 24 elders in Revelation represent the raptured, glorified church (combining Old and New Testament saints, symbolized by 12 tribes and 12 apostles), distinct from angels or other groups, appearing in heaven before the tribulation seals are opened.

WHO ARE THE 24 ELDERS?

 https://www.gotquestions.org/24-elders.html

  • Revelation 4:1-11 (elders on thrones in white raiment with crowns)

  • Revelation 5:1-14 (elders sing new song of redemption)

  • 1 Chronicles 24:1-31 (24 courses representing priesthood)

  • Revelation 3:4-5 (white garments promised to the church)

  • Additional: Revelation 11:16 (elders fall and worship)

  • Additional: Revelation 19:4 (elders and creatures worship God)​​

Pre-Millennial Kingdom (Literal 1000-Year Reign of Christ on Earth)

Christ returns before the millennium to establish a literal, earthly kingdom fulfilling OT promises to Israel, with Satan bound and saints reigning—distinct from the eternal state.

  • Revelation 20:1-6 — "And I saw an angel come down from heaven... And he laid hold on the dragon... and bound him a thousand years... And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them... and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years... This is the first resurrection... they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years." (Repeatedly states a 1000-year period six times; Satan bound, saints reign with Christ on earth—literal sequence after His return, before final judgment.)

  • Revelation 20:4 — "...and they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years." (Saints from tribulation and prior resurrected to reign—premillennial order: return, then kingdom.)

  • Zechariah 14:4, 9 — "And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives... And the LORD shall be king over all the earth..." (Christ's literal return to earth establishes His kingdom rule from Jerusalem.)

  • Isaiah 2:2-4 — "And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD's house shall be established... and all nations shall flow unto it... they shall beat their swords into plowshares..." (Future peaceful kingdom on earth with nations coming to Zion—no war, law from Jerusalem.)

  • Isaiah 65:20-25 — Describes longevity, peace (wolf and lamb feed together), no more infant death or calamity in the renewed earth—conditions of the millennial kingdom, not the eternal state (sinners still present, death occurs).

  • Ezekiel 37:21-28 — God gathers Israel, makes them one nation under one King (Davidic ruler—Christ), everlasting covenant of peace, sanctuary forever—literal national restoration in the kingdom.

  • Micah 4:1-3 — Parallel to Isaiah 2: nations stream to Zion, swords to plowshares—kingdom of peace centered on Israel.

  • Revelation 19:11-16 followed by Revelation 20 — Christ's Second Coming defeats enemies, then immediate binding of Satan and 1000-year reign—premillennial sequence.​​

The Church Did Not Replace Israel

(Distinct Roles; Eternal Covenants with National Israel)

God's unconditional promises to Israel (land, seed, blessing, throne) are forever, irrevocable; the church is grafted in but does not supplant Israel—future restoration and salvation for national Israel.

 

  • Genesis 12:1-3 and Genesis 15:9-17 — God promises Abraham land, descendants, blessing to all nations—unconditional, unilateral covenant (God alone passes through pieces in ch. 15, no conditions on Abraham's side).

  • Genesis 17:7-8 — "And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant... And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession..." (Everlasting/forever to Abraham and physical seed—land promise eternal.)

  • Genesis 28:14-15 — Promise repeated to Jacob (Israel): descendants as dust, blessing to families of earth, God with him and will bring him back to this land.

  • 2 Samuel 7:10-17 (Davidic Covenant) — God promises David an eternal throne/house/kingdom: "And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever." (Fulfilled ultimately by Jesus, Son of David—Matthew 1:1—but literal throne on earth in kingdom.)

  • Romans 11:1 — "I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid..." (Paul, an Israelite, affirms God has not rejected Israel as a people.)

  • Romans 11:25-29 — "For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery... that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in. And so all Israel shall be saved... As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes. For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance [irrevocable]." (Partial blindness temporary; future national salvation—"all Israel saved"—gifts/calling irrevocable, no replacement.)

  • Romans 11:28-29 — Enemies for gospel's sake but beloved for patriarchs; irrevocable gifts/calling—promises to Abraham/Isaac/Jacob stand.

  • Exodus 3:15 — God to Moses: "this is my name forever, and this is my memorial unto all generations"—eternal identity tied to promises.

  • Matthew 22:31-32 — Jesus affirms God of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob as God of the living—promises ongoing.

  • Acts 3:13, 25 — Peter confirms promises to Abraham/forefathers—blessing through seed (Christ) but to Israel first.

  • Titus 1:2 (with Hebrews 6:18 and Romans 11:29) — God cannot lie; His gifts/calling irrevocable—promises to Israel unbreakable.

  • Jeremiah 31:35-37 — God's covenants with Israel as enduring as sun/moon/stars; only if creation ceases would Israel cease as nation before Him.

The Two Witnesses in Revelation 11

Are Moses and Elijah

These two prophets will return during the tribulation (first half, 1260 days/3.5 years) to prophesy in Jerusalem, perform specific miracles mirroring their past ministries, face opposition, be killed by the beast, and then be resurrected and ascend to heaven—fulfilling Jewish expectations and God's end-times plan.

  • Revelation 11:3-6 — "And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth... And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies... These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will." (Core description: fire from mouth/devouring enemies, no rain/drought, waters to blood, plagues—directly parallels Elijah's and Moses' miracles; they share powers but echo the two prophets' signatures.)

  • Revelation 11:5 (fire judgment) — Matches Elijah calling down fire to consume enemies/soldiers in 2 Kings 1:10-12 — "And Elijah answered and said... If I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty." (Elijah's signature power against opposition; witnesses use it defensively.)

  • Revelation 11:6 (shut heaven/no rain) — Matches Elijah's ministry in 1 Kings 17:1 — "As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word." (Elijah shut heaven for 3.5 years during judgment; witnesses do the same for exactly 1260 days/3.5 prophetic years.)

  • Revelation 11:6 (waters to blood and plagues) — Matches Moses in Exodus 7:17-21 (and plagues throughout Exodus 7-12) — "Thus saith the LORD... I will smite with the rod that is in mine hand upon the waters... and all the waters... were turned to blood." (Moses turned Nile to blood and struck Egypt with plagues; witnesses replicate these judgments on a global scale.)

  • ​​Matthew 17:3-4 (with parallels in Mark 9:4 and Luke 9:30-31) — "And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him... Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias." (Moses and Elijah appear together with Christ at the Transfiguration—representing Law (Moses) and Prophets (Elijah); they discuss His "departure" (exodus/death), foreshadowing end-times roles as witnesses to Christ's return.)

  • Malachi 4:5 — "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD." (Prophecy of Elijah's return before the Day of the Lord/tribulation; Jewish tradition expects him at Passover/end times—witnesses fulfill this as Elijah returns literally.)

  • Deuteronomy 18:15, 18 — "The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee... like unto me [Moses]... I will raise them up a Prophet... and will put my words in his mouth." (Promise of a prophet like Moses; some Jewish views see this requiring Moses' return; witnesses fulfill by coming in Moses' power.)

  • Jude 1:9 (supporting Moses' unique status) — "Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee." (Mystery around Moses' body—God buried him secretly (Deuteronomy 34:5-6); dispute over it implies preservation/resurrection potential, unlike normal death/burial.)

  • Revelation 11:7-12 (death, resurrection, ascension) — Witnesses killed, bodies lie in street 3.5 days, then God resurrects them and they ascend in a cloud while enemies watch. (Parallels Elijah's ascension without death in 2 Kings 2:11; Moses' mysterious end and potential bodily preservation—both "translated" in unique ways, allowing return and second death.)  People are argue the verse: " Hebrews 9:27 to contain God's abilities. The rule is generally true. But please explain where I can find these 3 people living today? The Widow's Son at Nain (Luke 7:11-17). Jairus' Daughter (Mark 5:21-43; parallels in Matthew 9:18-26 and Luke 8:40-56). Lazarus of Bethany (John 11:1-44)

"But from there you will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him

 if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul."

"Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect"  1 Peter 3:15
