How can these thing be?

H

Nicodemus says he doesn’t understand. ‘How can these things be?’ He asks And Jesus said, ‘Well, you should understand what I’m talking about because you’re a teacher of Israel, you’re not one of the am erets (the common people). You should know these things, you should know the scriptures, you should know what God has to say.’ In fact, there are plenty of scriptures in the...

Baptism: the road ahead

A series of ‘matter of fact’ guides to the meaning and relevance of baptism in the life of Christians today It’s the word I felt to give to those who are being baptized but also to all of us; all of us as we’re facing what could be very uncertain and difficult days.

Certainly not! 16 Or do you not know that he...

As God was giving him these further instructions on how to live in the light of His commandments, specific instructions about access to God, about how to come to God through the Tabernacle, through the priesthood, the offerings, and the...

How then should we live? – Kyuwon Park

H

When Jesus comes back, it will be a very joyous and great time for us. And this end time Second Coming of Jesus is an interesting subject theologically and eschatologically. Yet, I believe urgency and desire should come from ‘heart knowledge’ rather than ‘head knowledge’. We can know many things about this Second Coming of Jesus, but unless you have this ‘heart...
