The document discusses the biblical references to the 144,000 sealed servants of God and the 12 gates of New Jerusalem, each bearing the name of one of the 12 tribes of Israel. It explores whether these refer to literal Israelites or spiritual Israelites who have overcome sin. It argues the 144,000 represent a spiritual Israel composed of people from all nations who have accepted Christ and gained victory over sin through His power.

Deception The Enemy Within
The document discusses deception and its origins. It begins by describing a deceptive advertisement and then outlines how the Bible defines deception. It explores how Satan used deception in the garden of Eden by disguising himself as a serpent and manipulating Adam and Eve. Satan continues to use deception by infiltrating organizations from within through cunning strategies like spreading discontent, distorting doctrines, and impersonating figures of authority.

This document discusses an organization called The Reformation Project that is working to change evangelical churches' views on homosexuality. The organization holds conferences to train LGBT Christians and allies to reform doctrine on sexual orientation and gender identity using biblical arguments. The document warns that these advocates are organized, serious, and intend to change people's minds and theology. It asserts their conclusions are based on a selective use of historical evidence, and that there is no biblical support for their views. The document encourages Christians to be prepared to address this movement's efforts to change churches' stances on these issues.Jeremiah 23 commentary
A verse by verse commentary on Jeremiah 23 dealing with God's anger at the shepherds of His people who scatter the flock, but God promises to return His people to the land under a righteous shepherd who will guide His people to success.
An Overview of Numbers
The document provides an overview of the book of Numbers in the Bible. It is divided into two main sections, the first covering the organization of the tribes at Sinai and the second covering the pilgrimage through the wilderness. Some key events summarized are the people failing to trust God and enter the promised land due to the faithless report of the spies, and the story of Balaam who is unable to curse Israel when recruited by an enemy king. The theology discussed emphasizes the importance of faith in God over following rules, along with God's holiness and faithfulness to his promises.
Old Testament (OT) Journey 15,16 v. 2
The document provides an overview and analysis of the Book of Judges in the Old Testament. It discusses the repeating cycle of sin and restoration that Israel experienced, where they would disobey God, fall into bondage, repent, and be delivered. Some key points included are: Israel failed to pass on God's word to future generations; their leaders/judges became faithless; and they foolishly made covenants with neighboring groups ("Trojan horses") instead of driving them out as God commanded. This led them to gradually slip away from God's promises of rest and victory in the land of Canaan.
Joshua
The document provides a timeline of key events in the Old Testament from 1406-931 BC, beginning with Joshua leading the conquest of Canaan and ending with the division of Israel into the northern and southern kingdoms. It summarizes that Joshua conquered Canaan for the Israelites, followed by a lawless period under the judges until Israel was united under King Saul, David, and Solomon. However, Solomon's idolatry led to the kingdom dividing into Israel in the north and Judah in the south after his death.
The life of joshua
The document summarizes key events and lessons from the life of Joshua as recorded in the Bible. It discusses Joshua's preparation under Moses as his servant, his leadership in battles to take the Promised Land including the victories at Jericho and Ai, and the challenges the new generation faced in fully taking possession of the land due to lack of faith. It emphasizes themes of courage, faith in God over confidence in the flesh, and the importance of sanctification and preparation for their calling.
8th December 2016 - The Bible - Book of Numbers
The document provides an overview of the Book of Numbers in the Bible. It discusses that Moses was the author and it was written between 1440-1400 BC. Most of the events take place in the wilderness as the Israelites wander for 40 years before reaching the Promised Land. The book gets its name from the census taken of the Israelites. Key themes are obedience, rebellion, and God's holiness. It prefigures Jesus Christ through the sacrifices and prophecies mentioned. The book serves as an example of both God's kindness and severity depending on whether the Israelites obeyed or rebelled.

The summary emphasizes Caleb as a model of courage, faith, generosity and patience throughout his life.
Book of Mormon Gospel Doctrine - Lesson 2 all things according to his will
1. Lehi has two visions from God - in the first he sees a pillar of fire and hears a prophecy, and in the second he sees God on his throne surrounded by angels.
2. Lehi flees into the wilderness with his family - his wife Sariah, sons Laman, Lemuel, Nephi, and Sam - after prophesying judgment against Jerusalem.
3. Nephi desires to know the mysteries of God and believes his father's words, unlike Laman and Lemuel who murmur and doubt, creating a contrast between the brothers.
Q and A
The document discusses reconciling differences between the genealogies of Jesus in the gospels of Matthew and Luke. It explains that while Matthew traces Jesus' lineage through Joseph, Luke traces it through Mary, as Joseph was considered Heli's son-in-law. This was important to establish Jesus' right to the throne of David. It also addresses how the curse on the line of King Jeconiah did not affect Jesus' claim, as he was not Joseph's biological son.
23 the remnant &_144_k
The document discusses the 144,000 in the book of Revelation. It states that before the end of the world, the gospel will be preached everywhere as a witness. At that time, all people will have aligned with either Christ or Satan. The Bible describes the final showdown between God's people (the remnant) and Satan's people. The remnant are the last generation of Christians who will endure the great tribulation and remain faithful to Christ. The document explores that this remnant of 144,000 believers will be sealed by God before the tribulation.
This great tribulation controversy
This document examines the identity of the Antichrist and argues that it is Mohammed and Islam. It provides biblical evidence that Jesus is God incarnate, while Mohammed denies this and claims Jesus was not crucified. It then discusses the great tribulation as the period from Jesus' ascension to his return, and argues we may currently be in the millennium reign described in Revelation. In conclusion, it declares the great tribulation over but warns Christians to continue occupying all things until Jesus' physical return to earth.

Lesson 22 of 26 in a series of Old Testament Vistas. This sermon on Micah was presented May 1, 2011, at Palm Desert Church of Christ, by Dale Wells.
The Bible – The Word of God - Prophecy
The document discusses prophets and prophecies in the Bible. It provides examples of prophecies from the Old Testament that were fulfilled in the New Testament, demonstrating the Bible's validity as the word of God. Specifically, it mentions prophecies about Jesus' birth, crucifixion details, and resurrection that were written centuries before the events occurred. The document also discusses false prophets throughout history whose predictions failed, contrasting them with God's true prophets whose prophecies came to pass.
Two Babylons
This document discusses two Babylons - the ancient city of Babylon and a symbolic Babylon mentioned in Revelation. It argues that Babylon represents reliance on human works and traditions rather than God. The ancient Babylon worshipped idols and the sun rather than God. Similarly, the symbolic Babylon promotes false teachings like worship on Sunday and salvation through works. It represents any church that embraces some or all of Babylon's false doctrines. True believers must come out of Babylon and rely only on God and His word as revealed in the everlasting gospel.
The Book of Zechariah
The Book of Zechariah was written between 520-470 BC by the prophet Zechariah. It encourages the Jewish people to complete rebuilding the temple through a series of visions. These visions foreshadow the future coming of Jesus Christ. The book outlines God's plan to establish an eternal kingdom through the Messiah and ultimate deliverance of Israel from their sins. The main message is that even in times of difficulty, God is sovereign and faithful to his people.
Raising up a company of Prophets
This document provides an overview of prophets in biblical history and the establishment of schools of prophets. It discusses how God raised up prophets like Abraham and Moses to lead the nation of Israel. It describes how Samuel established schools of prophets during the monarchial period in Israel to provide divine guidance after they asked for a king. The purpose of the schools was to train young men as prophets and teachers to instruct people in God's ways and counter corruption. The document analyzes early prophetic cases and the evolution of the prophet's role over time.
Babelunity
The document discusses the origins of Babylon and Nimrod's role in founding it after the Tower of Babel incident. It traces the genealogy from Adam to Noah and Noah's sons, focusing on Ham whose descendant Nimrod established Babylon and initiated a one-world religion through the Tower of Babel. Later passages discuss Nebuchadnezzar continuing this tradition in Chaldea and the modern concept of a one-world religion through ecumenism and a unified church.
Abomination of desolation
When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day: 21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. Matthew 24:15-22.

2. Habakkuk questions God about the injustice in Judah and is perplexed by God's response that he will use Babylon to punish Judah.
3. The book outlines God's judgments against Babylon for their pride, greed, violence, and idolatry, showing that he will also judge nations used as his instruments of punishment.
4. Despite the coming destruction, Habakkuk finds strength, peace, and joy in God, expressing faith that the righteous will survive by faith in God.
Lecture 14; Habakkuk
1. The book of Habakkuk was written in the late 7th century BC, likely between 612-605 BC during the reign of King Josiah of Judah.
2. Habakkuk expresses perplexity that God has not judged the injustice in Judah, to which God responds that he will use the Babylonians as his instrument of judgment against Judah.
3. However, Habakkuk then questions how God could use a nation like Babylon that is even more wicked than Judah, to which God responds that he will also judge Babylon for its pride, greed, violence, and idolatry.
4. In chapter 3, Habakkuk expresses his resolve to wait patiently
The Book of Zechariah
Zechariah received visions concerning the future restoration and glory of Israel through the coming Messiah. His first vision featured riders on horses symbolizing God's conquest of enemies. Subsequent visions included a man measuring Jerusalem, Joshua the high priest in filthy garments, a golden lampstand representing God's church, and four chariots depicting God's angels. Zechariah counseled the Jews to faithfully serve God in light of future Messianic blessings, despite present distress. He prophesied judgment on nations and the coming of Zion's King riding humbly. The book looks forward to Israel's strengthening and ingathering by God.

The Outpouring Of The Latter Rain
The document discusses the latter rain as a metaphor for the work of the Holy Spirit. It describes:
1) The early rain represents the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, bringing conversion. The latter rain represents later spiritual renewal and develops Christlike character.
2) For the church as a whole, the early rain came at Pentecost, resulting in rapid growth. The latter rain will come before Christ's second coming, bringing revival like Pentecost.
3) For individuals, the early rain produces conversion while the latter rain fully transforms us into Christ's likeness through continued spiritual growth. We must prepare our hearts to receive both rains.
The Testimony Of Jesus Christ
This document discusses the testimony of Jesus Christ and the three angels' messages of Revelation 14:6-12. It notes that Ellen G. White received visions to help understand prophecy and identify the dragon, beast and false prophet mentioned in Revelation. God will raise up people who keep His commandments and have the gift of prophecy to identify these entities and proclaim warnings about the mark of the beast. The true church will recognize God's enemies, as Elijah did the false prophets of Baal. Prior to the end, God will revive the testimony and spirit of Elijah to turn people's hearts back to obedience to God's law.

The Three Angels Message
The document discusses the three angels' messages of Revelation 14:6-12. It provides context on the book of Revelation and explains that an angel delivers God's messages to humans. The three angels' messages warn of impending judgment for worshipping the beast and call people to worship God as creator. The messages are a final appeal from God for people to come out of Babylon before facing his wrath.
Heaven
The document is a collection of verses and passages about heaven. It describes heaven as God's dwelling place, a place of holiness, eternal habitation, and health. It emphasizes that heaven is for overcomers and that only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life will enter. The overall message is that heaven should be our goal and focus as believers.
The Faith Of Jesus Christ
The document discusses the concept of faith as presented in the Bible. It provides examples from the lives of biblical figures like Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Enoch to illustrate what it means to have faith. Key aspects of faith discussed include trusting in God without seeing, believing his promises, and obeying him even when the outcome is uncertain. Having the faith of Jesus means enduring hardships and tribulations through obedience to God's commandments.
Four Elijahs
This document outlines four biblical typologies of Elijah:
1) Old Testament Elijah who opposed King Ahab, Jezebel, and false prophets of Baal.
2) New Testament Elijah as John the Baptist who opposed King Herod, Herodias, and Herodias' daughter.
3) Medieval Elijah represented by Thyatira who opposed Constantine, the apostate church, and the prophetess Jezebel.
4) Last-day Elijah who will oppose the dragon, beast, and false prophets mentioned in Revelation 13-14 that represent civil and religious authorities engaged in idol worship and deception.
Christ In The Midst Of The Hebrew Sanctuary
The document provides information about the four compartments of the Hebrew sanctuary:
1. The encampment where Israelites dwelt in tents and were part of the sanctuary.
2. The courtyard containing the altar of sacrifice and laver for washing, representing reconciliation between God and man.
3. The holy place containing the golden candlesticks, table of showbread, and altar of incense, representing sanctification and intercession.
4. The most holy place containing the ark of the covenant over which God's presence dwelt as a sign of His holiness.
Tomorrow
This document discusses the importance of living for God today rather than postponing salvation or good works until tomorrow. It references several biblical figures like Felix and the rich fool who thought they had tomorrow but died unexpectedly. The main message is that one should surrender to God and obey His will now because tomorrow is not guaranteed and death could come at any time without warning.

This document presents a new technique for measuring precision between process models and event logs. It avoids complete state space exploration by using a log-guided traversal of the model. Precision is measured based on "escaping edges" where the model allows behavior not present in the log. Minimal disconformant traces are also computed to locate precision inconsistencies. The approach is implemented in a ProM plug-in and extensions are discussed, such as handling invisible tasks, duplicate tasks, and refining models based on precision results.

How to Offend and Insult People in Your Open Source Communities
The tone and tenor of conversations in a community is a large part of whether a community succeeds, yet that’s often a hard concept to model and understand. Using a humorous approach, I’ll demonstrate behaviors that create a hostile community (and by contrast, those that create a welcoming community).
We’ll look at the “Defcon Insult Scale for Conversations” (the DIScon level), from mildly insulting to abusive, and at key signifiers of each level.

The Everlasting Gospel
The document discusses the everlasting gospel and the three angels' messages of Revelation 14. It explains that the everlasting gospel will be preached worldwide before the end comes. It also discusses how those who reject this gospel by worshipping the beast and receiving his mark will drink the wine of God's wrath. The document explores how Jesus willingly took the cup of God's wrath upon himself to redeem humanity from sin, even though he was sinless, in order to bring forgiveness through the everlasting gospel.
Jonah’S Story
The document provides an in-depth analysis of the biblical story of Jonah and its lessons. It examines Jonah's disobedience in refusing God's call to preach to Nineveh and his anger when God spared the city. God used storms, a great fish and a dying plant to reprove Jonah and turn his heart fully to obedience and acceptance of God's mercy for all people. The story conveys important messages about faith over feelings, accepting God's calls, and surrendering one's will to God's.
Bible Promises
The document provides Bible verses to help with various problems and feelings, organized by topic. It offers promises and guidance for when one feels discouraged, worried, lonely, depressed, etc. The verses offer comfort and reassurance, promising that God will strengthen, help, and be with the reader through all troubles.
Leftbehind
The document discusses different interpretations of Matthew 24:40-41, which references some being "taken" and others being "left" when Jesus returns. It argues:
1) The text does not say the righteous will be taken to heaven while unbelievers are left on Earth, as some believe. It simply says some will be taken and some left.
2) Based on the context of Jesus comparing it to Noah's flood, it must refer to His glorious second coming, not a secret pre-tribulation rapture.
3) Looking at Genesis 7:23 about the flood, it suggests those "taken" were destroyed, while Noah and his family were "left" and remained alive
Our Friendsthe Jehovahs Witnesses
This chapter discusses working for Jehovah's Witnesses. It notes that JWs are hard working in sharing their beliefs but face difficulties as their organization discourages reading outside publications. The challenge is to help JWs as they are at risk without being born again. It outlines key doctrines JWs teach and soul winning methods focus on speaking directly to understand doubts and show how other beliefs align better with the Bible.
The Calendar Part 5
The document discusses the Hebrew feasts and their significance, focusing on parallels between events at Mount Sinai and Pentecost. It suggests that Pentecost likely took place 50 days after the Israelites' Exodus from Egypt, and draws connections between the two events, such as God's presence manifested through wind, noise, fire and earthquake. The document asserts that Jesus fulfilled the symbolism of the feasts through his death, resurrection and ascension, and that Pentecost inaugurated the New Covenant and Jesus' eternal priesthood.
The Lord’S Supper
The document discusses Jesus' words about eating his body and drinking his blood during the Last Supper and the reactions they elicited. It notes that Jesus used metaphoric language to teach spiritual lessons and that there were different types of followers seeking him for various reasons, like signs, prosperity or politics. Some disciples rejected Jesus' difficult teachings and walked away, showing how followers can fall into apostasy. The document contrasts invented religions focused on ceremonies and works with the Bible's teaching of salvation by God's grace alone.
The Ministry Of Heresies
The document discusses the topic of heresies and how God allows them to come into the church. It says heresies are used by God to sift the chaff from the wheat by leading people to deeper Bible study. While heresies are dangerous, God can use them for good by prompting believers to thoroughly examine what they believe in light of Scripture alone. The document warns that superficial knowledge is not enough and emphasizes the need for believers to study the Bible, Spirit of Prophecy, and hold to fundamental principles based on authority.
Deception The Enemy Within
The document discusses deception and its origins. It begins by describing a deceptive advertisement and then outlines biblical definitions of deception, including transgression of God's law, beguilement, evil communication, and more. It notes that Satan was the original deceiver, using cunning strategies like a persuasive sales pitch to deceive Eve. The Bible warns that deception can occur within churches when the original message is distorted or replaced by counterfeits, and the greatest deception is worshipping self over God.
Persona Non Grata
The document discusses Satan's defilement of God's heavenly and earthly sanctuaries throughout history from the Garden of Eden to the Christian era. It describes how Satan used deception to beguile Adam and Eve in Eden, leading to their expulsion. In the Jewish era, God dwelt among Israel in the tabernacle and temple. The document asserts that in the Christian era, Satan sought to deceive Christians in the seven churches and ultimately the church of Laodicea, which had become lukewarm.
No Thru Traffic
The document discusses Jesus Christ as the mediator between God and humanity. It argues that without Jesus as mediator, there is no "through traffic" or way to access God. It outlines how Jesus fulfills the role of high priest and mediator prophesied in the Old Testament, offering himself as the final and perfect sacrifice through his blood. By accepting Jesus as mediator, one can be redeemed and assured of his intervention with God on our behalf.
Meekness Is Not Weakness
1. Meekness is not weakness but involves getting off one's high horse and subjecting oneself to God's will. It is about serving as servants, not seeking status.
2. Meekness involves suffering and crucifying one's ego, as Jesus suffered crucifixion for humanity. It requires controlling one's desires and ego.
3. Meekness recognizes human weakness and faces trials, which help believers grow spiritually and turn to God rather than worldly things. It involves enduring hardships like the Israelites crossing the Red Sea.
In Theatres Near You
The document discusses the antichrist and identifies the papacy and Roman Catholic Church as fulfilling biblical prophecies about the antichrist. It provides evidence from Scripture and interpretations from historic Protestant reformers to support this view. It also warns about false signs and wonders that could deceive people and contrasts the true Christ and true church with the antichrist and apostate church.
Gods Valentine
The document provides a Valentine's Day devotional focusing on Jesus Christ as God's ultimate Valentine. It discusses how God showed his love for humanity by sending his Son, and it encourages readers to accept Jesus as their Savior and love God in return. Several Bible verses are referenced to illustrate Jesus sacrificing himself and God's great love for people. The document urges readers to look to God, not earthly things, on Valentine's Day.
Last Day Delusions Walker
This document discusses and critiques the doctrine of "once saved, always saved." It argues that this view contradicts Scripture in several ways:
1) It claims people can continue sinning without consequence even until death, yet the Bible says the unrighteous will not inherit God's kingdom.
2) It asserts people will be cleansed of sin at the judgment, but the Bible says nothing defiled can enter heaven.
3) It encourages sin by removing consequences, yet Scripture warns against using grace as an excuse for sinning.
The document concludes the Bible teaches people will be judged according to their works, not just their profession of faith, and the finally impenitent will face condemnation
Determination
The document discusses the importance of determination versus defiance. It uses the examples of Jesus, Paul and Moses who were determined in their missions despite facing difficult circumstances. In contrast, the Israelites who exited Egypt lacked determination and defied God, wandering in the wilderness for 40 years as a result. The document urges readers to have determination by relying on God rather than human means, as defiance will be judged but determination enables one to overcome challenges through faith.

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.
