A Last Great Reformation

Posted 06-13-2024 at 08:52 AM by Heavenese

Throughout Ecclesiastes, the teacher states there is nothing new under the sun. What has been, will be done again. This is why I predict (not prophecy) there will be another great reformation among believers in these last of the last days. I've made mention many times before how there is a lack of God's power flowing in the Church. I believe it is because we have attached ourselves to traditions that came from men and the world. And today we have a version of Christian life that was not passed...

The Mountain of Transfiguration - God's Face is Revealed

Posted 03-25-2024 at 08:35 AM by Heavenese

When thinking about what Jesus did during His time here on earth, many would recall aspects of His birth or of course His crucifixion. Not many when thinking about His ministry, bring up the time He was transfigured before three of His disciples. Its actually a very pivotal point! The Gospels tell us His clothes became radiantly white, whiter than any one could bleach them on earth.


There are so many things happening in this scene. I want to point out how this event...

Two or Three Witnesses

Posted 03-23-2024 at 08:07 AM by Heavenese

In Luke's Gospel, when it came time for Joseph and Mary to have baby Jesus presented to Yahweh in Jerusalem as is the custom of the Law, the family were met by two people. A man and a woman came to greet them. The first was a man named Simeon. When we look at the Hebrew behind his name, it means "To hear" or "To be heard". The greatest prayer in Judaism is The Shema, Shema Yisrael, Hear/Listen Israel. If there was one word in the Hebrew language that could sum up the laws of...

There is a difference between seeking a sign and seeking Yahweh's power

Posted 03-05-2024 at 08:58 AM by Heavenese

Most Christians don't believe God works miracles at the same clip He did with the very early Church, or as was done with Jesus. They may believe God will work a miracle here or there. Yet these miracles are seen as "hit and miss"/"every blue moon", something outsiders would say is simply luck.


For Christians who try to justify the lack of God's power on display, they will point to Jesus saying an evil and adulterous generous seeks a sign. So we shouldn't...

A Believer who does not believe in God's Power

Posted 02-29-2024 at 08:02 AM by Heavenese
Updated 02-29-2024 at 08:57 AM by Heavenese

There are many Christians who believe God has ceased doing miracles. In that He ceased working miracles through the message of Christ, which He did through Jesus and the original apostles.


Some argue God only worked miracles in the early days to get the attention of the people back then. To get the Church started if you will. Yet today, the Bible itself now suffices for everything. God doesn't need to demonstrate His power, because now we have a completed Bible.
