Apocrypha: Wisdom Chapter 6 1 Hear therefore, O ye kings, and understand; learn, ye that be judges of the ends of the earth. 2 Give ear, ye that rule the people, and glory in the multitude of nations. 3 For power is given you of the Lord, and sovereignty from the Highest, who shall try your works, and search out your counsels. 4 Because, being ministers of his kingdom, ye have not judged aright, nor kept the law, nor walked after the counsel of God; 5 Horribly and speedily sh

PLANTING SEEDS and Harvesting the Greatest Treasure We are talking about Hastening God’s work through Faith in Christ. God’s work is to invite ALL people to “Come unto Christ and be perfected IN and by Him”. I have found a great hidden treasure and I am enriched beyond belief by it. May I share this treasure with you also? As a wheat farmer, I have learned a little bit about planting seeds and doing the nurturing to find a good harvest. This is called Husbandry. There is

What Prophets of God Believe about “THE LAW” “We know that whatever things “The Law” saith, it saith that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of “The Law” NO FLESH SHALL BE JUSTIFIED in His sight.” Romans 3:19-20 “The Law” perfecteth Nothing.” Hebrews 7:19 “The Law” worketh Wrath” Romans 4:15 “The Letter of “The Law” Killeth” 2 Corinthians 2:16 “The Gentiles have attained unto righteousness; but Israel, which follow

SALVATION BY GRACE ALONE? Elder Bruce R McConkie: “What salvation is Free? What salvation comes by the grace of God? With all the emphasis of the rolling thunders of Sinai, we answer: ALL SALVATION IS FREE: ALL comes by the merits and mercy and grace of the Holy Messiah; there is NO SALVATION OF ANY KIND, nature, or degree that is not bound to Christ and His Atonement.” (Promised Messiah, Page 346-347) “Does salvation come by grace, by grace alone, by grace without works?

OUR PREDICAMENT AND OUR CHOICE 1. 1 John 1:7-10 says: If we (any of us) say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us”. 2. James said: If you offend (or transgress) in one point of the law, then you are guilty of ALL the law. James 2:10 3. Jesus said to the Pharisees who were the “priesthood leaders” of the ancient church: Matt 23: 21 JST Ye Pharisees do everything according to the Law, and appear unto men to not commit the least sin, and yet ye,

BIRTH OF CHRIST Recalculated to Day of Atonement? I. Preliminary Considerations A. The objective of this study is to demonstrate that Christ was born in 3BC rather than the commonly accepted years of anywhere from 4 to 7BC. B. This evidence is based upon modern discoveries in the fields of history, archaeology, and astronomy. C. The new information dovetails with the chronological statements of early Christian Fathers th

CONSUMED IN CHRIST President Ezra Taft Benson said: “we must be not only captained by Christ, but also “consumed” IN Christ if we ever hope to find Him, and the salvation or Eternal Life that He offers us. The word “in” in the Greek language means “Dependent upon”. Therefore to be consumed “IN” Christ would be to be something akin to having our Natural Man Self burned out of us or Consumed through our surrender to Christ. I really hope this book will help you on this most g

LEARNING TO COME UNTO CHRIST Presentation #4 CD 5-7 Merrill Bailey - Salt Lake City, Utah - 1991 (Transcribed & edited from tapes) Noah's Priests Try to Entrap Abinadi During the song that was just played I thought of King Noah's priests who were upset with Abinadi because he was telling them they were not living what they were preaching. They called Abinadi before King Noah and decided to trap him (using a scripture) by showing that he was teaching unsound doctrine. Th

LEARNING TO COME UNTO CHRIST Presentation #3 Merrill Bailey - Salt Lake City, Utah -- 1991 (Transcribed and edited from cassette tapes) Purpose for These Lectures Our purpose is to support each other in coming unto Christ. In order to do this we need to be of one mind, willing to share the thoughts of our hearts, and to unconditionally love and support each other in all of our magnificence. How Do We Come Unto Christ?
