The Seven Administrations
The word “Administrations” refers to “Terms”, as in “Periods of Time”. These were periods of many, many years, varying greatly in duration, in God’s Timetable and plan for mankind. They span all of man’s existence, from the very first of mankind, Adam and Eve, all the way to the End Times, and into the restoration of Paradise, which will last forever. It is important and useful to have some understanding of these administrations, as it helps us to understand the nature of God, our Father, and our relationship with him as sons and daughters of God. There were various Laws, conditions, allowances and availabilities to mankind, which varied between and across these 7 administrations in time. It is essential to not only understand the past, as...

Did God really tell Abraham to Kill his own son?
Have you ever deeply wonder about why God would instruct Abraham to kill his own son? Well, you probably should. Isaac was a good young man; the son whom God promised to Abraham. If it is true that God really did instruct Abraham to kill Isaac, then that instruction alone would apparently contradict with so many other parts of the Bible, as well as our understanding of God, as a loving caring Father. If God instructed you to do the same to your child, would you? Would God force us to make such a difficult and heart-breaking decision, especially when the child has done nothing to deserve this? Let us take a very close look at what the Bible says, concerning this controversial command from God. What you learn here… may truly surprise you! Sections in this Biblical...

How does one become a Christian?
This is an important question that most people simply do not pay attention to. They usually simply accept the words and rituals of any local Pastor or Priest they visit, and believe that by following their given instructions, they will be led into a life of Christianity. Of course, who better to go to for Spiritual Advice; a Pastor or Priest, not so? Well, the problem is, most Biblical Teachers today are either false, or wrongly informed on what they are teaching. So it’s hard to blame an individual for seeking a reputable Biblical authority for all the answers to a Christian lifestyle. In this teaching I will attempt to explain as clearly as possible, how to become a Christian, and how to live a Christian lifestyle. My teaching is not so much my own opinion on...

What happens after Death?
This is a topic that has come up in the minds of everyone at some point along the road of life. Be it Christian, Atheist or whatever Religion, everyone who is old enough to know what “Death” is, has wondered about that point in life when they cease to exist. It is important for Christians to understand death properly while they are still alive here on earth. The majority of people have misconceptions about death, afterlife and Heaven. Understanding death helps us not to fear it, but also not to welcome or celebrate death as many Christians do. Sections in this Biblical Teaching: 1) What is Death? 2) Who is in Heaven right now? 3) When shall passed-away Christians go to Heaven? 4) Is Death a Friend or Foe? 5) Apparent contradictions about the Death and...
Luke 23:43 – The Malefactor on the Cross and Paradise
This scripture speaks about the dying moments of Jesus Christ on the Cross. Jesus was nailed to the cross along with 4 other Criminals or Malefactors. This verse is often mis-quoted to prove that Christians go to heaven immediately after death, but this is an incorrect misinterpretation of the Bible. The Bible can be confusing at times. It is easy to misunderstand some of the scriptures, often because of the way they were originally written, or because of slight imperfections in their translations. The idea of Christians going to heaven directly after death had to come from somewhere. Let us explore one of those misunderstood verses in the Bible, that many preachers use to convince people that their loved ones are happily in heaven right now. (Luke 23:42) And...
