Christadelphian was not our "first name"

Bro. Thomas had originally called us (Christadelphians): The Antipas, which he said is "a symbolical name, representing all in every place who hold fast the Spirit's name, bestowed upon the faithful because they were uncompromisingly opposed to all names and faiths which are not identical with those delivered once for all to the saints, by the Apostles of Christ." See: The Meaning of Antipas by Dr. Thomas

Our Ecclesial Stand on what is commonly called the "Exceptive Clause" and the "Pauline Privilege" (Paul's Exception)

Some verses to refresh your mind on the signs of the end times. Our Lord is coming soon Rev.17:3,12-14 Luke 21:26 Ezek.38,39 Dan.11:40-45 Joel 3 Zec.12,14. Isa.26:20-21 II Peter 3

Are you waiting for Jerusalem to be at peace before Christ's return?

The Bible emphatically says that the peace and safety "CRY" is a cry for peace and safety. People who have peace do not cry for peace. Israel won't have peace before his return. The Bible does not say they were going to HAVE peace and safety, but that they DESIRE peace and safety. Read The Peace and Safety Cry from Elpis Israel by bro. J. Thomas.

The Revelation --
Which Interpretation?
(Preterist - Continuous Historical - Futurist)
(By Graham Pearce)

No man can say with persuasion that he loves God if he is disinterested in prophecy, for prophecy is an essential part of the Truth which has proceeded forth from the Father. Neither can a man love Truth and be indifferent to apostasy. The love of God, then, compels a saint to identify the Apostasy foretold by prophet, apostle and the Lord Jesus.

Gathering Jews to the Holy City

Old Testament prophecy being fulfilled as you read this ... The ten tribes disbursed into captivity into Babylon; often called the "Lost Tribes;" are being found in the four corners of the world. Whole communities of Jews who did not know they were Jews but kept the customs of the law. Things like dietary regulations, the Menorah and Hebrew writing on tomb stones

A group of people called "International Fellowship of Christians and Jews" is promoting a program called "On Wings of Eagles." This program is currently seeking out and returning the Lost Tribes of Israel and helping them complete the "aliyah" emigration to their homeland. Jews and Christians united to return the children of Yahweh to the land. All part of the wondrous ways of Yahweh.

What does the "War on Terror" mean in terms of Christ's return?

"25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. 27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. " Luke 21: 25-27
(In Biblical terms: The use of "sun, moon, stars and heaven" always represent political powers. While "the sea" represents the population of peoples)

Are men's hearts failing them for fear? Have the political powers of the earth been shaken? Are we confused by what is happening around us? Is Nebuchadnezzar's image forming once again ready to stand on it's feet? (See Daniel 2:32-45 ) As the nations begin to form unexpected alliances to fight terrorism, do you know which nations comprise "The King of the North" and the "King of the South?" What is supposed to happen when they align? Who is the stone made without hands? That knocks down the image and turns it to powder? Read: An Exposition of Daniel by bro. J. Thomas.

DOES ARMAGEDDON HAPPEN BEFORE OR AFTER THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST? Do you know the order of the events surrounding Christ's return to the earth? This Logos article puts the events in order. Other articles in this Logos series: Review of Bible Prophecy Outlining In Sequential Order The Events To Take Place Subsequent To Christ's Return explain, in a detailed easy to understand format, the prophetic scriptures and symbols in Daniel, Ezekiel, Revelations and others. Christ's return to the earth is close, very close. How do we know that? If you don't understand the prophecies concerning the "latter days" this series is a good place to begin.

Could the Second Coming of Christ be linked to the Second Passover of the Mosaic Calendar? The Law of Moses was a schoolmaster pointing toward Christ for "all things must be fulfilled which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the Psalms, concerning him". (Luke 24:44) The editor examines one possible reason for the inclusion of the Second Passover in the Law of Moses and it's relationship to the sequence of events at the return of Christ and the events leading up to the judgment at Sinai.
