In the beginning God created the heavens and the Earth. God had the purpose of forming this special creation for His Glory and His pleasure. He says that in a number of places, but very specifically in Hebrews 1:1-2 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers […]

Christ went to Hades to redeem the Old Testament saints from hades and to deliver the New Testament saint from the power of the devil. That is the reason why He exclaimed in Psalm 16:10 “For thou will not leave my soul in hell (Sheol)…” and also: “For great is thy mercy toward me: and

Once, a well-intentioned preacher held a baby in his arms and told his congregation, “God would never send a beautiful child like this to hell. What kind of a God is that?”, he asked. Well, that’s the God of the Bible. The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. This preacher had (maybe) good

Jacob, the son of Isaac, the son of Abraham, had twelve sons. Joseph and Benjamin were among them. Jacob favored them even above the others, because they were the sons of Rachel, who was the love of Jacob’s life.

The first time Sheol is mentioned in the Bible is in Genesis 37:35. There we read, “For I will go down into the grave unto my son mourning” These words came from the mouth of Jacob, who was lamenting the (he thought) death of his son, Joseph. In this context, the word “grave” is actually

Matthew 4:1-11 and Luke 4:1-12 narrate the temptation of the Lord Jesus Christ. Satan tried to entice Jesus to obey and worship him, but Jesus defeated him with “the Sword of the Spirit” – God’s Word.

The result was the curse that transferred us from the kingdom of light, into the kingdom of darkness and the dominion of Satan. Christ came to redeemed us from the power of the

“But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons”.     Galatians 4:4-5 Christ was the One that at the appointed time was going to crush the head of the serpent.

The prophecy in Genesis 3:15 says that One would come to destroy the head of the Serpent. In Revelation 13:3 we find that one of the heads of the Beast was wounded to death, but his deadly wound was healed; and all the world wondered after the beast. Here God is giving a description of
