JUSTIFIED OR CONDEMNED

JUSTIFIED OR CONDEMNED

Comments 0 Comment

Interesting Questions If lasting life is the portion of all when awakened, are they justified? If not justified, are they still under condemnation? If neither justified nor condemned, what is their condition? The condition of the world on trial during the Millennial age will be neither one of justification nor of condemnation. The “curse” of the whole world under divine condemnation, or sentence to death on account of Adam’s sin, will cease thoroughly and completely with the close of this…

“The following will prove interesting reading to many of our brethren, and especially amongst our Jewish friends. It is a report of remarks made by an old Hebrew at a “mission” meeting. We note that God has so overturned natural Israel that even if they had possession of the holy places where sacrifices were appointed to be offered, they have no priest qualified to make the offerings. No Jew living in the world today could prove his right to the…

“It will be noticed that the translators of the Revised Version have usually avoided the use of the word “hell” throughout the Scriptures, substituting therefor in the Old Testament the Hebrew word “Sheol,” and in the New Testament the Greek word, “hades.” Evidently, in view of the meaning attaching to the word “hell” the translators could not conscientiously so render Sheol and hades and, therefore, avoided any translation; – not wishing to translate these words “grave,” for fear, perhaps, that the public should quickly see that they had…

“The thought of some, that resurrection “change” has come to each individual at the moment of dying throughout the Gospel age – that resurrection has all along followed the dying of all, is abundantly contradicted again, when the Apostle definitely fixes the time of the First Resurrection of the Church, the body of Christ, to be “at the last trump” – when the seventh trumpet shall sound – then “the dead [in Christ, – his members] shall be raised incorruptible,…

“Having thus established the general principle of a resurrection, and its applicability to ALL mankind, because the redemption was “a ransom for ALL” (1 Tim 2:6), the Apostle proceeds to discuss particularly the First Resurrection, in which the Church is especially interested (he was not addressing his words to the world, but to the “sanctified in Christ Jesus” – 1 Cor 1:2). His words, found in Verses 42-44, describe, as clearly as it is possible for us to understand things so far beyond our…

“Now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first-fruits of them that slept.” “Let us now look at the words of our lesson, and see that they are in full accord with what we previously set forth to be the Scriptural teaching. Our text mentions the dead as asleep, and declares that Christ was the first one to experience a resurrection from death. Let us note these two points: (1) In what sense is death a sleep? We answer…

“But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep. For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead…Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed— in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we…

BEGINNINGS OF COMPREHENSION. As the mental eyes and ears of the believer begin to take in the fulness of God’s provision for his creatures, his former fears begin to subside; and he begins to get a realizing sense of the goodness and love of God, as never before. But still, he will have queries. He will want to know when this day of which the Apostle speaks will begin; – the day of the world’s judgment, or trial in righteousness,…

“Procrastination is the thief of time,” is an old proverb and a true one: and time lost means opportunities lost, and the advantages and privileges which went with the opportunities, also lost. If Christian people (all the truly consecrated) could get the proper view of the divine plan, and could see clearly, with the eyes of their understanding, the great work which God is now doing amongst mankind, and could see their privileges in connection therewith, life would become much…

As stated in our previous post, “All that, by the Lord’s grace, we shall ultimately have through the “change” of the resurrection as members of the body of Christ – all the heavenly things, including full fellowship and communion with the Father and with our Lord – are reckoned as having their beginning in the present life. He, therefore, who knows not such a beginning of the new life, and its holy spirit now, has no reason whatever to believe…
