Mission of the Two Witnesses in the Book of Revelation
Unless Christians continue to make a close study of God's Word, they
risk being deceived by the countless lies being manufactured by the New
World Order. It is especially important to understand events relating to
the Second Coming of Christ. The Bible says a great deal about them
because they really matter. In this paper we will examine the mission and
identity of the Two Witnesses and how the world will react to their
presence. We wish to highlight, among others things, the role that the
media will play in shaping public perception during these turbulent
times and turning truth upside down. [Posted 04/07/2018]
The Scriptural Basis for the Lord’s Day
The Biblical foundation for the Lord's Day is not well understood. It is
often confused with the Sabbath. This paper examines its origin and
shows why believers may need to reflect more deeply on its significance
and the precious opportunity that it gives to draw closer to God.

The Sign of Jonah - Three Days and Three Nights
An accurate analysis of Scripture will show that Jesus was crucified on a
Wednesday, not a Friday, and that he was three full days and three full
nights in the tomb. This paper also gives strong evidence that the
Crucifixion took place on Wednesday 7th April, 32 A.D.

The Deity of Jesus and a Seriously Flawed Tract
The most basic doctrines of Christianity are under severe attack almost
everywhere. Chief among these is the doctrine that Jesus was God
incarnate. An essential element of this doctrine is that Jesus, in the
course of his earthly ministry, clearly identified himself with the LORD.
In short, he personally confirmed that he was God incarnate. This
doctrine must be fully understood and faithfully communicated by all
believers. Unfortunately, many are failing to do this. One well-known
discernment ministry, Lighthouse Trails, has even issued a tract on this
topic which is so seriously flawed that it ought to be withdrawn. This
paper explains why. [Posted 24/04/2016]
Let’s Talk about Calvinism
Men have invented many ways to share the Gospel that are not
scripturally correct. The Enemy too has a keen interest in formulations of
the Gospel that serve only to disguise its true message. While traditional
Calvinism has many great strengths, it has often taught a version of the
Gospel which portrays God in a very strange light. This paper points to a
serious problem at the heart of Calvinism, a problem which is drawing
the Presbyterian church in America ever closer to Rome.

New Study of the Tabernacle and the Offerings
This is a detailed study of the Tabernacle and the Offerings, with
particular reference to the many ways the modern church has departed
from the truths expressed in the Pentateuch - the first five books of the
Bible. Many important doctrines in the New Testament cannot be
understood correctly without a sound knowledge of the Tabernacle and
the Offerings. [Please note that the study is still in draft form.]

Fatal Flaws in the Gap Theory
The Gap Theory claims that there was a lengthy passage of time between
the events described in Genesis 1:1 and those described in 1:2. Far more
Christian leaders subscribe to this theory than is generally known. But
the theory is false. This paper examines the serious errors of
interpretation that have been used to promote it. It also explains how the
theory undermines the plain truth of Scripture, impugns the sovereignty
of God, and opens the door to science fiction and New Age heresy.

Speaking in Tongues - why the modern practice is unscriptural
Speaking in tongues is a greatly misunderstood phenomenon. The
modern practice is both unscriptural and potentially harmful. This paper
examines the subject in depth and shows how sincere Christians are
violating the rules for tongue-speaking that are set down clearly in
Scripture. [This is a revised version of a paper on the same subject which
was published on this website in March, 2010.] [Posted 20/11/2015]
What will Jesus ask You at the Judgment Seat?
There is seemingly a large segment of the church today with little or no
understanding of the Judgment Seat. Many seem to forget that even the
saved are judged. Seldom do we hear any reference to the rewards and
"crowns" that Christ will give to faithful believers. In this paper we
examine the Scriptural basis for this End Time event and its implications
in eternity for all believers. [Posted 03/02/2015]
The Real Meaning of Salvation
There is a lot of confusion today, even among long-time believers, of the
real meaning of salvation from a strictly Biblical perspective. In all there
are eight terms which need to be properly understood if the power of the
Gospel is to be conveyed in its fulness. The definitions in this paper,
which should be read as a set, may be of assistance to readers who are
keen to share the Gospel message more effectively. [Posted 24/01/2015]
'Great Words of the Gospel' by H A Ironside
This book is being made available here for the first time as a free e-book
for downloading (Another version on the Internet has many errors and
omissions). It has been thoroughly checked and proofed against the
original, which was published in 1944. Harry Ironside published many
outstanding expository works, and had both a great knowledge of the
Scriptures and a remarkable gift for explaining them clearly and
concisely. This short work (about 90 pages or so) is ideal for new
believers, as well as a witnessing tool for sincere enquirers. Many long-
time believers would also benefit from a careful reading of this work
since it expounds upon truths of immense importance to all who
sincerely want to reach out to the lost. [Posted 23/06/2014]
Prayer addressed to the Holy Spirit is Unscriptural
Most Christians do not seem to understand that prayer addressed to the
Holy Spirit is unscriptural. It can even lead to New Age heresy and
serious spiritual confusion. The Roman Catholic church is using the
'Come, Holy Spirit' invocation to lure true Bible-believing churches into
the snare of Rome. Indeed,the Charismatic movement has been
developed mainly for that purpose. Christians need to have a very clear
understanding that the Holy Spirit is not a force or a fluid or a substance,
but a Person. Otherwise they risk falling into a range of dangerous traps
and heresies. [Posted 25/08/2012]
What does it mean to be 'Born Again'?
This short paper describes what a Christian means when he says he has
been born again. It is suitable as an explanatory brochure/flyer for
friends and acquaintances who may be enquiring about true Biblical
Christianity. It may also help born-again Christians explain more clearly
what they experienced when they were born again.

Eternal Security & Unconditional Assurance
Many Christians misunderstand the doctrine of Eternal Security, the
Biblical principle enshrined in Romans 8:16: "The Spirit beareth witness
with our spirit, that we are the children of God." Once your Father has
adopted you, you can never be disowned. You are His child forever, even
if you wander far from His precepts. The Catholic Church and certain
Protestant denominations hold to the doctrine of Arminianism, which
denies the principle of Eternal Security. They hold that it is possible for a
person who has been saved to later lose his salvation. But this imposes
qualifications on the sufficiency of what Christ achieved for us on the
Cross. It also flies in the face of numerous scriptural passages which
assert unequivocally that, at the moment of salvation, we are changed
forever. If you are unsure about the wonderful gift which Christ has given
us, please read this paper. [Posted 2009]
Why the King James Bible is by far the Best
This paper uses countless examples to show how the numerous modern
translations of the Bible into English are seriously flawed and,
furthermore, that many of these flaws are deliberate. One of the worst
offenders is the NIV (New International Version), which systematically
skews and undermines many key tenets of Christianity. The most reliable
translation of the Bible into English is the King James Version (KJV) of
1611. To download a copy of the KJV onto your hard disk go to Printable
version of the King James Bible. To obtain an MP3 version (to play in
your car, while out walking etc), go to Audio version of the King James
Bible. You will be amazed how wonderful it is to just listen to the word of
God. [Posted 2009]
A Study of Satan in History
A fascinating paper exploring the role of Satan in history and how his
goal of world domination is having a direct influence on events today.
The author supports his analysis with extensive scriptural references and
a deep insight into God's programme of Redemption for mankind. A
truly priceless paper for all Christians. [Posted 2009]
