No Other Way
Bro. Ernest Benion Jr.
[Audio clip: view full post to listen]

To the Unconverted
By Joseph Alleine
Awake, and think of where you are, and where you are going. While you are in your unconverted, unbelieving state, all your sins are unpardoned, and the wrath of God abides on you. Suppose you saw a poor creature hanging over a burning fiery furnace, by nothing but a slender thread, about to [...]
The Last Day
Bro. Stephen Hargrave
“…He hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.” Acts 17:31. The period of the judgment of the entire world is here represented [...]
Sounding Forth the Seventh Trumpet
We most emphatically believe and proclaim that we are living in the time of the “breaking of silence” (Rev. 8:1) and the sounding forth of the seventh trumpet (Rev. 11:15-19), the last in the series of seven trumpets in Revelation.

The Fable of a Great, Seven Year Tribulation
Millennial dreamers, as usual, are found taking scriptures out of context and grossly misapplying them to force them into their incredulous age to come scheme. Their abuse of Matt. 24:21 and Dan. 9:26-27 are just another example of this.
They imagine the former to support a seven year tribulation period yet to come, when nothing [...]
Everlasting Punishment
The subject of the final destiny of those who persist in a life of wickedness has not been left to the mere opinions of men, but is a matter of revelation in the Christian scriptures. Furthermore, the knowledge which we possess of the manner of God’s dealings with sinful men in the past would [...]
A Secret Rapture?
The scene is a Boeing 747 over the Atlantic Ocean. Most passengers are sleeping. Suddenly, some of the passengers start to vanish. One by one, the remaining passengers cry out in fear as they realize their fellow-passengers are missing. Parents are frantic, as all the children have disappeared.
Though this sounds like science fiction, it [...]
Why the Millennial Doctrine Is Not Biblical
By Albert J. Kempin
Reason Number One
It Robs Jesus of His Throne and Crown
Teachers of the millennial doctrine say that when Jesus comes again He will be crowned as King of kings and Lord of lords. Such teachers withhold our Lord’s crown and deprive Him of His throne.
Jesus has a kingdom now. We list the following [...]
Consider Your Ways
“Now therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, Consider your ways.” Haggai 1:5.
This is a plea to all of mankind. It denotes that you should stop and think about the way you are taking in life. Where is the road I am traveling leading me? Am I on the road to heaven? What is the [...]
Pressing Reasons Why You Should Be Saved Today
By J. Rice
“Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and [...]
Are You Ready?
“Prepare to meet thy God.” Are you prepared to meet God in peace at any moment? Are you sure you will go to heaven when you die? On that day, the question will not be, did you believe in God, or did you go to church regularly, or were you a nice, moral person. The [...]
