The Bible A Book Of Truth

MIXED MULTITUDES LED THE ISRAELITES INTO SIN The mixed multitude of Gentiles who left Egypt with the children of Israel were people of their generation and culture. They were idolaters. They worshipped idols of every description and the thought of having just one Diety to worship was alien to them. They were Egyptians plus other races of people who were living in Egypt at that time. When this multitude of people realised the Hebrews were leaving Egypt, they must have believed they would have a safer life with the Hebrews, rather than stay in Egypt where the plagues had just taken place, or perhaps because there was very little left in Egypt for them. They may have fled Egypt in terror. Whatever their reason for leaving Egypt, there is no scripture telling us they ever believed in the Lord God. They may have obeyed the laws given to the Israelites out of fear but few, if any changed their idolatrous ways. If these people had genuinely changed their ways and turned to God, Israel...

ERRORS OF CATHOLIC DOCTRINE If you happen to be a Roman Catholic, some aspects of this Bible study may shock you because there are some shades of Catholic doctrine that do not line up with scripture. This Bible study is not an attack on Catholics, but is about Catholic doctrines that are out of step with some of the Gospel. Most of what the Catholic Church teaches is correct: The virgin birth of Jesus; His crucifixion; His resurrection; the people’s participation in Communion; Joseph’s role in Jesus’ life; they teach us we should spend our lives wholly focussed on walking with and serving God; living a Christian life and raising our children in the knowledge of God; they focus on prayer and getting to know God as our Father; they teach creation; they teach us the prophets foretold of Jesus’ birth; the church correctly stands up against abortion and homosexuality. They have charities and hospitals, caring for the poor and the sick. All these things are correct and scriptural....

WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT DOGS This is bound to be a contraversial subject but it is one the Lord wants people to know about. In this time in human history, the Lord is separating sheep from goats - dedicated people from lukewarm. There are many areas of our lives that need to be surrended to the Lord and for so me people, their dogs may be one area they need to surrender to Him. Dogs may seem to be a mundane topic but remember, all scripture is written by inspiration from God and valuable for teaching ... and for instruction in righteousness. Jesus never owned a pet and neither did any of the disciples. They were interested in people more than animals. Most people have never given a thought about what the Bible says about dogs but as we can see in the scriptures, dogs are not high in the Lord’s favourite animal list.  The Lord associates dogs with pigs, murderers, idolatry, witchcraft, prostitutes, homosexuals, gore, violence, evil, worthlessnes...

HOW WE CAN TRY TO CONVINCE ATHEISTS GOD IS REAL ‘The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt. They have done abominable works. There is none who does good’ (Psalm 14:1). ‘The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt and have done abominable iniquity. There is no one who does good’ (Psalm 53:1). The fool in this context does not mean someone who lacks intelligence, it means they are foolish for disregarding God. Some people claim to be atheists or agnostics. Non-believers are foolish because they refuse to see God’s hand in the design of creation. They have no faith or trust in the Lord but want proof of everything. For this reason, God regards all non-believers, agnostics and atheists as fools, evil and spiritually adulterous. Jesus said, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign (‘proof’)” (Matthew 12:39). “Unless you see signs and wonders (or ‘proof’), you will in no way believe" (John ...

FALSE RELIGIONS AND CULTS ‘As you have received Jesus the Lord, walk in Him. Have the roots of your faith deeply planted in Him, be built up in Him, just as you were taught, overflowing in faith with thanksgiving. Be careful no one robs you by so-called philosophy and vain deceit, following the traditions of men, of the world and the universe, disregarding the teachings of Jesus. In Him the fullness of the Godhead dwells in the form of the body, and in Him you are made complete, and He is the Head of all principality and power … Let no one rob you of your prize by self-humility and worship of angels, taking his stand on visions he claims to have seen, vainly puffed up by his unspiritual mind and not holding on firmly to the Head (Jesus) from Whom the whole body grows … Such things appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship, self-humiliation of the body, but they are of no value in checking the indulgence of the flesh’ (Colossians 2:6 to 10, 18, 19 & 23).

HEAVEN AND HELL ARE REAL PLACES We recently heard of a Pastor preaching about this subject. He was saying there was no heaven or hell. He said the earth would be 'renewed' and everyone would live on the 'renewed' earth but there will be no sin. His spin was all those who are dead are 'asleep' and will be resurrected to live on earth. Those who are still here will remain. He was basically saying there is no penalty for rejecting Yeshua and his sacrifice in blood. That is a 'different' Gospel and wrong in every way. We read in the Bible how this earth will be utterly destroyed because it has been defiled. We must be born again to enter the Kingdom of God.

ABIGAIL, WIFE OF KING DAVID Abigail, Wife Of King David was an exceptionally wise woman. When her wealthy, rebellious husband Nabal refused to feed David's army, David and the army came to wipe them out, along with all the servants. Abigail intervened, fed the army and bowed down to David, whom she knew had been anointed to be king. Her actions helped save David and thus Israel. How many of us would like to have a little of Abigail's wisdom and courage? Read more at: www.bibleabookoftruth.com
