Due to some technical difficulties beyond my control, I'll be taking a short break. Please be patient, read your Bible and I'll be back with more studies as soon as possible.
Thank you, Truth B. Told
 Is All Wisdom a Good Thing?May 9th 2012 00:28
I have heard people say that “wisdom is wisdom, it's all good.” They would be wrong. But how can a person know this for sure? Let's go to scripture. Heavenly Wisdom Versus Demonic Wisdom James 3:13-18 “Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.” Note: “Peace” is only achieved through Christ, or it is a delusion and can mislead. Furthermore peace should never be sought at the expense of truth (Hebrews 12). Sometimes peace can not be achieved, you can not get a long with all people, and the only real peace is found in true believers because it comes from our Father. Romans 5:1 “Having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ”.
What Happens When I Die?May 6th 2012 00:25
This is a question that is on a lot of minds. But, did you know that scripture answers all questions? It's true. Let's go through scripture and see what we can expect. -We know that when the silver cord parts (Ecclesiastes 12:6-7), and we die then we immediately return to the Father. Why? Because all souls belong to Him (Ezekiel 18:4)- He made them. -We know by the story of Lazarus and the rich man that there is a gulf in paradise (Luke 16:19-31). On one side, there are the souls that made it (the good) and on the other the souls that did not (the wicked or unbelievers). The gulf is uncrossable. It is a great torment to be able to look across that gulf and see the saints and know that you are not among them, that you are separated. Once a person notices this they, undoubtedly, are scared and they realize what they have done has led them to this point and there is no going back to fix their behavior. -We know that there will be a “great white throne of judgment” where all people will be judged according to their deeds and according to the works in the flesh (Jeremiah 25:14). Revelation 20:12-15 “And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.” Q. So, what is the “Book of Life”, and how do you get your name into it? A. John 3:16-21 - “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.” Q. Is it enough JUST to “believe” in God, then we get a free ride to heaven? A. NO. Notice the scriptures above, the “deeds” are what shows your love and belief. Your actions in life are what reflects who you are and which master you serve. Another good place to understand this concept is James 2:19-20 - “You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe - and tremble! But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?” So now we know what it takes to get into the Book of Life and what will happen when we die. Remember: there are no excuses in heaven. There will be no way to con God. Your decisions and actions in life, that is to say “in the flesh”, is how you will be judged. Not on a mere thought that God exists and Jesus was His Son. Revelation 3:5 - “He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels.”
The Fallen AngelsMay 2nd 2012 00:15
Most people do not realize that the fallen angels will be coming back, when Satan is loosed a short period to tempt mankind. What will they be doing? What does scripture say about them? They are coming to pervert and tempt us. Let's look into scripture.
How Do You “Rightly Divide” the Word of God?April 29th 2012 20:44
This question is frequently asked: “How do I rightly divide the word of God?” So, today let's have a short lesson that can help you to do just that. Here are steps that are essential to being able to efficiently study, whereby you are ABLE to rightly divide the scriptures:
Toughen up! God Knows That You CAN Handle it!April 25th 2012 20:40
At some point in our lives we all have cried out to God that life is not fair. Even Christians have done it prior to learning scripture. But once we learn scripture, if we have faith (which we better or we are much of a Christian), we learn what God has said about our situations. This reminds us that all things have a purpose to refine us, shape us and teach us in order to make us into a better person.
Why Did God Favor Noah's Family?April 22nd 2012 20:31
Countless people think they know the real story of Noah, the story that they have been taught in Sunday school is often much like the Sunday school version of the garden and the “partaking of the tree”. Many “teachers” would have people believe that Eve ate an apple and that was the sin in the garden, well along those same misleading and down right false teachings, the story of Noah also has become perverted in many circles of religion. Today let's read God's word instead of listening to mankind.
Guilt Trips: Are You on One?April 18th 2012 20:25

Am I REALLY Forgiven????April 15th 2012 19:46
What is Repentance?April 11th 2012 19:35
I have heard people ask this question often. So, today let's take a moment to address it. Repentance is not simply behaving as a broken record and saying “sorry” to God. Repentance is a sincere action and reaction. Remember that NO ONE can con God. • Realizing that you have sinned and coming to terms with that sin. (Note: this does not mean try to hide your sin, blame shift your sin, or make excuses for your sin

on The End of the First Earth Age and the Present Earth Age
Hidden Eternal Treasures
You see, I am of the belief that a person's history or education is pointless when God's Word is so capable and Jesus Christ has all the credentials to teach every soul. It is the Holy Trinity who teaches, I am merely a vessel that God uses to teach the word in love and guide people to understand that there is a supernatural Creator, our Father who loves them, and a bigger picture than what they could ever imagine. It is not "me" who leads and teaches but God who teaches through me; His word, His truth, His plan, not mine. Everything I teach comes directly from the word of God, not some man who has been taught a specific theology or doctrine- but biblical truths written by almighty God through the chosen, throughout time. His history and background are what is important here, nothing I could accomplish in my lifetime could ever scratch the surface of His knowledge, love, creativity, etc. Learn from Him, not from me.
I hope that satisfies your curiosity but I also hope that you understand that I will not use this platform to magnify myself in any way- that would go against my very principle. I am glad that you are learning more about scripture here and I pray that God is glorified.
Have a blessed day.
