The sixteenth Chapter of Luke records Jesus' story of Lazarus and the Rich Man. As I meditated on this passage, the Lord began to speak something fresh to me. The rich man was a picture of the Church and Lazarus represented those who do not know God. This book will reveal the true purpose of the Church of Jesus Christ and the attitude many in the Body of Christ have taken toward those outside the knowledge of salvation. It is my prayer that a spirit of humility and compassion will be stirred up in every person who reads this book. If we say we love God, but mistreat and neglect our fellow...

Jesus' arrival to Planet Earth came with many parallels. The first Adam was created and clothed in God's glory while naked and placed in a Garden of Paradise. Adam sinned, and was banished from Eden as God clothed him in animal skins. The Second Adam, Jesus, was born in a stable, that housed animals. He was banished from Earth (crucified) while hanging naked on the Cross for the sins of man, but returned to Eden clothed in God's glory. The first Adam lived in a garden and the second Adam was buried in a garden. The first Adam ate from a tree and fell, the Second Adam died on a tree so that we...

As the last days of this age approach, and Bible prophecies are fulfilled right before our eyes, I believe the time is ripe for mature Christians to stand and be the person whom God called you to be in this season. The purpose of this book is to bring illumination to the powerful words spoken by the Apostle Paul recorded in Romans 8:19. "For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God." We will go on a journey from Genesis to Revelation, digging into the glorious truths hidden in God's Word concerning the sons of God. My prayer is for an insatiable...

John 8:32 says, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." Freedom is connected to knowledge, knowledge of the truth. God does not desire His children to be ignorant concerning any area of their life, especially His Word. There are many untrue beliefs about Heaven and we must understand that a half-truth is a whole lie. It is imperative that we study to show ourselves approved unto God and rightly divide His Word, (2Timothy 2:15) in order for truth to prevail. God's Word is light, and it keeps us from the darkness of ignorance. In My Father's House, A Revelation of...

Avatar means the descent of a deity to earth in an incarnate form or some manifest shape, the incarnation of god. The origin of avatar is: Sanskrit avatar, a passing down, equivalent to ava, (down) and tara (a passing over.) The only true Avatar man has ever known is Jesus Christ. Jesus is one hundred percent God and one hundred percent man, the only God-man. After the Fall of man, man was inevitably stuck in sin and enslaved to sin. We are not able to save ourselves from sin and death; only God can save us. If God had not chosen to Avatar "cross over or descend," mankind would have been...

Under the Law of Moses, every firstborn son was designated to receive the full inheritance and blessing from his father. The purpose of this book is to examine the Scriptures that explain why the firstborn son rarely received the father's inheritance and blessing. Our human birth is our first birth and when we are born again, it is our spiritual birth or second birth. We are born in the flesh, and then we are born again spiritually. Our first birth is cursed because we are all "shapen in iniquity; and (born) in sin" (Psalm 51:5) and because of this, we cannot receive the blessing of Father...

A certain man noticed that the hummingbird taking up residence in the birdhouse in his front yard began to fly violently into his car after he would return home. After realizing it was not an isolated incident, he began to pay closer attention to the bird's behavior. He noticed the bird would fly violently into the car, but not just any part of the vehicle, but particularly, only the mirrors, glass, and chrome parts. He did a little research about hummingbirds and discovered that they are very territorial and will defend their turf with great zeal. This led him to understand that the...

In Romans 15:4, the Apostle Paul says, -For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.- The Word of God has many stories detailing personal struggles of people in scripture. God has saw fit to include these stories so that we may relate and learn from them. God remembered Rachel after her barrenness and personal battle in relation to her oldest sister, Leah. God remembered Samson after his fall and humiliation from his relationship with Delilah. God remembered the thief on Jesus' right side as...

Before intimacy takes place in marriage, an atmosphere is usually created to help entice our spouse. Waiting until it's nighttime and quiet, lighting candles, playing slow love songs, and surprising our spouse with hidden gifts, all can be used to woo our lover and set the tone for great intimacy. The third room in the Tabernacle was called, Holiest of All and was a type of Bedchamber. Only one person who is the High Priest was allowed to enter behind the veil of this sacred room where there was no physical light, only the glory of God lit the room. The Ark of the Covenant was the only piece...

Luke 2:12 says, "And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger." The birth of Jesus has been taught many times over throughout history. Over time, the retelling of the little babe born in Bethlehem became a novelty known simply as the Christmas story. "The Sign" re-presents the Christmas story by focusing its spotlight on the manger. It is there that we can see clearly the purposes of the angel's grand announcement as told in the Gospel of Luke. Beyond their visitation to the shepherds in the field, the arrival of wise men from the...
