The White Pass - Yukon Railway runs from Whitehorse, Yukon to Skagway, Alaska. It is described as a fantastic sight to see in real life for those who have visited. The document discusses the railway route from Whitehorse to Skagway and encourages readers to visit if they have not already seen it.
This document discusses denominationalism and what it can never do according to scripture. It summarizes that denominationalism can never find biblical authority for its existence, trace its existence back to the first century church established by Christ, or prove that it is the body of Christ. It asserts that denominations teach ways to be saved such as saying a sinner's prayer that are not supported by scripture, which teaches that one must believe, repent, confess, and be baptized to be saved.
Baptism does not remove physical dirt or change one's heart. It does not take away the desire to sin or assure salvation alone without obeying other commands. Baptism washes away sins, adds one to Christ and salvation, and gives new life, but it does not remove persecution, sickness, or death. One must continue in faith and obedience to have present and future salvation.
This document discusses occasions in the New Testament where individuals wept, and the spiritual lessons that can be learned from them. It examines Jesus weeping over Jerusalem because the people had rejected him, Peter weeping bitterly after denying Jesus, and Paul weeping as he thought about those who had disobeyed the gospel. The overall message is that we should weep over our own sins and the state of those who are lost, as it shows we understand our need for repentance and salvation.
The document discusses how allowing and approving sin are interchangeable, and that allowing sin actually means approving of it. It provides examples of sins that should not be allowed or approved of, such as sexual immorality, murder, drunkenness, and abandoning religious assemblies. The document concludes by reminding readers that as God is holy, believers should be holy and abstain from every form of evil.
This document discusses whether the Church of Christ is a cult or denomination. It begins by defining what constitutes a cult and denomination. It then argues that the Church of Christ does not fit the definition of either, as it traces its origins back to the original church established in Acts and aims to follow the teachings of Christ alone, not any man. It acknowledges some divisions within the Church of Christ but asserts the true church seeks truth and salvation above all else.
Baptism saves by washing away sins and placing one in Christ, but it does not change the heart, remove desires to sin, or assure salvation without continued faith and obedience. While baptism is a requirement, it does not guarantee salvation on its own or protect one from future hardships, as believers still face persecution, and must work to mature in faith through adding virtues to their lives.

The documents discuss several biblical principles regarding sin:
1) Sin cannot be justified by good intentions or desired outcomes. One cannot do evil that good may come.
2) While others can influence us to sin, we are ultimately responsible for our own actions and will be judged accordingly.
3) All sins will eventually be exposed, as one cannot hide sin from God. Our sins will find us out.
The document discusses several biblical passages about obeying God and his commands. It discusses how Noah obeyed God in building the ark. It also discusses how Moses and Aaron were punished for not obeying God at the rock. Additionally, it discusses how salvation comes through grace by faith, and how we must not receive God's grace in vain by disobeying. It emphasizes the importance of obeying the true gospel that was received.
This document contains excerpts from the book of Galatians in the Bible that discuss obeying the truth and not being hindered from following Christ. It warns that if people seek justification through the law rather than through faith, they have become estranged from Christ. The document goes on to provide examples of people or things that can hinder one from obeying the truth, such as friends, family, peers, or oneself. It also lists potential hindrances to being baptized, such as fear, doubt, or slavery to sin. The document encourages readers to hear, believe, repent, confess, and be baptized in order to follow God's will.
God's providence refers to His foresight, care, and control over all things. The document provides examples of God's providence seen in Joseph, Moses, and Esther's lives despite difficulties and challenges. It asserts that God controls and orders all aspects of creation from nature and animals to nations, individuals, and even small details. This demonstrates that prayer is effective since God is sovereign over all. In summary, the document discusses the reality of God's providence, that it is God controlling His creation rather than miraculous intervention, and how this should affect believers to trust and serve God.
Jeroboam used the excuse that it was too difficult for the people to travel to Jerusalem to worship God as prescribed in an attempt to justify setting up golden calves for the people to worship. The document then lists several things God asks of believers according to scripture: to walk by faith, obey the gospel, be members of one church, worship faithfully, live godly lives, and remain faithful unto death. It concludes by asking if it is too difficult to do the will of God, noting that those who love and obey God will be loved by Him in return.
The document discusses Jesus' teachings about the narrow and broad paths that lead to life and destruction. It notes that Jesus warned about false prophets who disguise themselves. True prophets bear good fruit through their truthful teachings, while false prophets bear bad fruit with untruthful teachings. The document emphasizes that judgment day will reveal whether one's practices align with God's will or constitute lawlessness. It concludes by questioning whether Jesus indicated religious beliefs and practices do not matter, given his warnings about entering through the narrow gate and following the narrow way that leads to life.
This document defines and describes the process of conversion according to scripture. It states that conversion means to turn around or toward the Lord, and involves three fundamental changes: a change of mind from unbelief to belief and repentance; a change of position from lost to saved and from darkness to light; and a change of lifestyle from immorality to morality and emphasis on spiritual matters over physical. The document emphasizes that genuine conversion requires belief, repentance and baptism, and results in a change of mind that leads to a change of position that leads to a change of ways.
The document discusses different theories about the Godhead, including Tritheism, Arianism, and Sabellianism. It then examines six points about the Godhead: 1) The use of the term in the Bible refers to deity, divinity, or divine nature. 2) There are three members of the Godhead: God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit. 3) The Bible teaches there is one God. 4) There is plurality in the Godhead seen in Genesis 1 and other passages. 5) The Trinity is properly understood through passages like the baptism of Jesus. 6) Any being that possesses the eternal attributes of God, like the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
This document discusses the specific sins that led to Jesus's crucifixion, including ignorance, betrayal, hatred, envy, and lying. It explores how ignorance of who Jesus was contributed to his crucifixion, as did Judas's betrayal of Jesus for money. Hatred of Jesus because his teachings exposed evil, and envy of his success from both within and outside his followers also played a role. Lies told about Jesus during his trials further crucified him. The document encourages self-reflection on whether we perpetuate those same sins today.
Jesus uses the analogy of a grapevine to illustrate the close relationship between himself and his disciples, where he is the vine and they are the branches, and they must abide or dwell in one another. To abide in Christ means he continually purifies us, gives us the ability to bear fruit, answers our prayers according to his will, and we abide in him by letting his word dwell in us through obedience. If we do not abide in him by bearing fruit, we will be cut off as fruitless branches and be lost.
This document discusses how the faithfulness of just a few individuals can make a significant difference and preserve righteousness. It provides examples from the Bible of how Noah preserved humanity, Lot could have preserved Sodom and Gomorrah if more were righteous, Abraham preserved God's promise, Joseph preserved Israel, exiles like Daniel and Esther preserved God's people, Jesus preserved salvation, and faithful Christians today preserve the purity and peace of the church. The conclusion emphasizes that Christians must be willing to be the "salt of the earth" or else critical institutions and values for future generations will be lost.
Accepting responsibility under the gospel of christLarry Tomlin
Paul preached the gospel in Corinth both in synagogues and private homes, accepting responsibility to spread the message whether supported financially or not. Those who reject the gospel must accept responsibility for their rejection, while those who accept it take on new responsibilities like baptism, righteous living, saving others, and worshipping God acceptably. In conclusion, each person is responsible for their own soul, spreading the gospel, obeying it, and being ready to defend their faith.
The document discusses the biblical concept of the Day of Gathering when Jesus will return to judge all people. It describes how believers who have died will be resurrected first, and living believers will be caught up together with them to meet Jesus in the air. It also discusses how all nations will be gathered and separated with the righteous being rewarded in heaven and the unrighteous receiving punishment in hell. The gathering will be sudden for unbelievers but expected for believers, serious as each person's life is reviewed and rewarded or punished, and separating as people are divided forever between heaven or hell.
What Jesus uses to draw men unto himselfLarry Tomlin
Jesus uses some things but not others to draw men to himself for salvation. He does not use direct operation of the Holy Spirit, offers of political power, material wealth, worldly popularity, an easy life, social prestige, or worldly entertainment. Instead, he uses what is revealed about himself in scripture, his love, death, resurrection, and life, as well as the offers of rest, peace, forgiveness of sins, reconciliation with God, security, fellowship, and eternal life. Men must be drawn to Jesus to be saved according to the Bible.
The document discusses how life is too short for wasting time, aimlessness, mediocrity, shortsightedness, and procrastination. It argues that Christians should use their time wisely and not waste it on ungodly living, idleness, anger, or efforts to get even. They should have clear goals and purposes beyond just living for the moment. Christians should also avoid being mediocre in their service and have diligent, wholehearted love for God. Additionally, they should have goals that extend beyond this life and think about more than just the present. The document stresses that some tasks are too important to delay and risk not completing, like obeying the gospel or reconciling with others.
Being called children of God means we have been born again through faith in Jesus Christ. It also means we are part of God's family, the church, and have responsibilities to live holy lives and show love to one another. Most importantly, it means we have the hope of salvation and eternal life because of God's great love shown through sending His Son to die for our sins.
The document examines several Catholic doctrines and compares them to teachings in the Bible. It finds that Catholic beliefs about the Pope, Mary, salvation through Scripture alone, infant baptism, praying to saints, and who can be called saints do not align with what is taught in the Bible. The document encourages readers to test all religious teachings against the word of God and to identify as Christians alone, rather than Catholics, as that is the name followers of Christ were first called in the Bible.
The document discusses Paul's experience with shipwrecks and his warning to the people on his ship that they must remain on the ship to be saved from drowning. It uses this story as an analogy for remaining in the church, which is described as the "ship of salvation." Just as those who were not on Noah's Ark drowned, and those who leave the church will be lost, the document urges people to get on the "ship" of the church if not already on it, and to remain faithful to avoid spiritual death.
By faith in Christ, we gain pardon from sins, peace with God, eternal life, sonship with God, and heirship to God's kingdom. The document outlines biblical passages that discuss each of these gains from faith: pardon from sins (Acts 10:42-43), peace with God (Romans 5:1-2), eternal life (John 3:35-36), sonship with God (Galatians 3:24-27), and heirship as children of God (Romans 8:14-17). It encourages the reader to show their faith in Jesus by obeying the gospel through believing, repenting, being baptized, and remaining faithful.
The document discusses how the devil tries to prevent people from believing and being saved through Jesus Christ. It does this in 3 main ways:
1) By taking away the word of God, which produces faith and guides people rightly.
2) Because the devil knows the word of God saves souls and makes true disciples, and will judge in the end.
3) The devil tries to mislead people by transforming ministers to appear genuine, working under cover, and getting people to put their faith in messengers rather than the message of God's word. Resisting the devil through obedience to God's word is encouraged.
The documents discuss several biblical principles regarding sin:
1) Sin cannot be justified by good intentions or desired outcomes. One cannot do evil that good may come.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
