Heartfelt greetings to all of you worldwide in the precious Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ with the Scripture from Jn 8:31:

“If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed …”

The Prophet Micaiah came up against the four hundred prophets, who prophesied under false inspiration, and said, “As the Lord liveth, what the Lord saith unto me, that will I speak.” (1 Kgs 22:14).

That has also been my decision from the beginning. At the end of his message, the man of God could proclaim, “Hearken, O people, every one of you.” (1 Kgs 22:28).

A true voice is calling out loudly even now: “Hearken, O people, every one of you!”:

“… even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.” (Ps 90:2).

“Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.” (Lk 21:33).

“But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.” (1 Pt 1:25).

Only that which is written in the “Word of God  – in the Bible – shall be valid for us. Whether it concerns the biblical account of creation or the Plan of Redemption or all of the doctrines, we let God Himself speak to us through His Word. We leave interpretations and theories to those who do not believe God. We already see the first difference between the reality of creation and the theory of evolution. Whoever does not believe what is written in the first verse, namely, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth,” will have difficulty to do so up until the last verse of the Bible. That which was in eternity and will be in eternity we leave unto the eternal God. We go back to the beginning of time and primarily to the beginning of the time of grace. 

Our main concern in this exposition is to briefly highlight the following epochs:

The transition from the Old to the New Covenant, to the New Testament.

The founding of the Church of Jesus Christ and the time of the apostles.

The period of the first three hundred years until the Council of Nicaea.

The one thousand years of the dark Middle Ages up to the 14th century.

The Reformation and the following five hundred years and what actually happened.

The last message before the Return of Christ that is now going forth.

First of all, it is very important to know and to believe that God is doing everything in accordance with the promises He has given in His Word. “… and ye know in all your hearts and in all your souls, that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the Lord your God spake concerning you; all are come to pass unto you, and not one thing hath failed thereof.(Jos 23:14). What the prophets in the Old Testament proclaimed under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit is shown to us by the apostles in its fulfillment, from the first verse of the New Testament. “For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.” (2 Cor 1:20).
