God on the Docket
Consider a court scene the likes of which has never been, with stakes that have never been higher. You won’t understand its full impact until you discover the identities and roles of the key players in this drama.
09/12/2009
The Cleansing
The most solemn and momentous day of the year for ancient Israel may hold more parallels for God’s people today than many people realize, given our own momentous time in the history of our planet.
09/26/2009
The Temple on Yom Kippur
Rightly understood and applied to these end times, Yom Kippur has a striking parallel to American Football, which makes it especially relevant to every one of us.
10/03/2009
Outside the Curtain, Inside the Camp
What did devout believers do differently on the Old Testament’s Day of Atonement than they did on other days? Could the two biblical clues to the answer suggest some radical differences that should be occurring in the lives of believers who live in the final Day-of-Atonement era of this world’s history?
10/10/2009
The Two Goats
Though the centuries-old theological controversy still rages over their identity, the two goats involved in the ancient Day of Atonement ritual may seem far removed from the practical issues of our daily lives—until Warren Buffet enters the picture, that is!
10/17/2009
Sex in the Temple: What’s So Gay about That?
It’s one of the most difficult subjects of our day. But not one without clarity and, in many cases, without cost, as two biblical bookends to this subject make clear.
10/24/2009
The Third Temple: The Anniversary of Charles Darwin and God
A magnificent blend of raw numbers revealing the sheer immensity of it all and personal testimony displaying the powerful emotions involved in the WOW factor of His creation.
11/14/2009
The Fourth Temple: The Last Imitation
Mimics can be irritating; imitators, entertaining. But the seven-faceted imitation-invitation of Scripture is the focal point of the temple’s message to our generation. Miss this, and you miss God’s special appeal and promise.
