  • Seven Better Things Than This World Offers – Part 2

    Seven Better Things Than This World Offers – Part 2

    by

    In Part 2 of this three-part blog, let’s answer continue with sections 3 and 4 by asking, What made Jesus’ sacrifice better than the animal sacrifices, and how is it that Jesus’ sacrifice cleanses heavenly things?


  • Seven Better Things Than This World Offers – part 1

    Seven Better Things Than This World Offers – part 1

    by

    Let’s examine seven of the better things God has promised for us as described in the book of Hebrews.


  • A Formless Earth—The Events of the Near Future

    A Formless Earth—The Events of the Near Future

    by

    By putting together the various descriptions from across Scripture (Old Testament, Jesus’ prophecies, Revelation, Paul’s descriptions, etc.), this blog describes what I believe will most likely happen from where we are today until the great white throne judgment and the ultimate end of sin and sinners.


  • God Longs to Speak with You

    God Longs to Speak with You

    by

    Let’s explore God’s desire to speak with us directly and personally, to remove all barriers between us and Him, and to remove the lies, fear, selfishness, guilt, shame, and distrust, in order to bring us back into at-one-ment with Him.


  • Studying the Bible With Those Who Hold Different Beliefs

    Studying the Bible With Those Who Hold Different Beliefs

    by

    Do we use the method of biblical evidence (truth) understood by the enlightenment of the Holy Spirit? Or do we determine “truth” by how it feels, waiting for a warm feeling inside or, perhaps, a miracle or sign?


  • Hosea and Gomer: An Object Lesson of Christ and the Church

    Hosea and Gomer: An Object Lesson of Christ and the Church

    by

    I have read various Bible commentaries that suggest that the experiences of Hosea were to demonstrate what we sinners have done wrong, help us to empathize with how it makes God feel when we are not faithful to Him, and to demonstrate God’s love for us in pursuing us and sacrificing Himself to redeem us. But I think there is a deeper lesson!


  • God’s Love and Law

    God’s Love and Law

    by

    If we break His commandments, does God’s law and justice require Him to use His power to inflict punishment, or does transgression of God’s laws naturally cause the harm, pain, suffering, and ultimately death unless healed by God?


  • Little Red Riding Hood and the Pretenders Among Us

    Little Red Riding Hood and the Pretenders Among Us

    by

    What happens when the wolves in our society distract and obscure truth through the claim of compassion and empathy for people who are confused about their identity?


  • The Trap of Perfectionism—the Fear of Making Mistakes

    The Trap of Perfectionism—the Fear of Making Mistakes

    by

    Many people with good hearts passionately want to do what is right, but become so intent on doing what is right that they get caught in loops of worry, fear of making mistakes, and thus become paralyzed with indecision. How do we break this unhealthy and destructive cycle?


  • Beware: A Method of Seeking Union with Christ that Cuts One Off from Him

    Beware: A Method of Seeking Union with Christ that Cuts One Off from Him

    by

    Meditation practices that turn the mind inward to ourselves, rather than outward to God, instead of enhancing a living relationship with Him, replace that life-giving connection with the Creator with a self-induced emotional counterfeit that slowly cuts themselves off from Him.


  • Ellen G. White and the Gut-Brain Connection

    Ellen G. White and the Gut-Brain Connection

    by

    Amazing as it seems, Ellen G. White gave counsel over 100 years ago that was far advanced for her time and scientifically accurate! Let’s examine her commentary and several recent studies that confirm living in harmony with the laws of health and making healthy food choices will improve your overall health.


  • Bible Perfection and Ongoing Sin

    Bible Perfection and Ongoing Sin

    by

    The real historical events of the life of Elijah also serve as powerful object lessons to the plan of salvation. As the Bible tells us, for example in 1 Corinthians 10:6, the stories of the Old Testament were recorded as examples to us.

Testimony 20

I just wanted to personally thank you for your teachings and insight into scripture. I came across your website via my cousin who suggested I look into “Healing the Mind” information. My youngest daughter has been struggling over the last couple of years and it all came to a head this spring. When I started listening to the “Healing the Mind” lectures my own life began to be transformed. I began sharing with all my daughters the concepts you laid out so clearly. I ordered your book and soaked it up. I just want to say “Thank You!” My walk with the Lord has been refreshed and renewed. Your obedience to the Lord is a blessing to so many.

R. K., Anderson, SC, USA

 

Testimony 19

I truly believe that to know who God really is the first step to understand ourselves in a balanced and kind way, so the healing can take place. Your approach really makes sense – Thank you for your ministry!

A.M., Pittsburg, PA, USA

Testimony 12

I have been really blessed reading your response to the various questions on your site.

K.C., OH, USA

 

Testimony 36

Thank you and may God continue to bless you as you share with others the intricacies of how we are all “fearfully and wonderfully made”. I must share that you have opened a whole new world to me, and I have found tremendous healing through what you have shared in two of your books, “Could It Be This Simple?” and “The God Shaped Brain.” I praise God for what you shared, what I have learned, and how I have grown and healed! My prayer is that My Precious Jesus will be seen by others in the way I live, act, talk, etc. and they may be encouraged to know He is truly a GREAT God of LOVE, desiring that no one should perish! God Bless you in your continued endeavors to present Him as He really is!

Joleen H. GA, USA

 

Testimony 66

I am incredibly grateful for the transformative impact you’ve had on my life, and words cannot fully express my appreciation. Over the years, I have been an avid listener and follower of C&R and extend my heartfelt thanks for creating the C&R mobile app. It has allowed me to immerse myself in your lessons repeatedly, enabling me to grasp the profound significance about the Character of God, Design Law, the protocols for life, the reasons behind the current chaos, and Christ’s mission to restore everything. They have deeply touched me. Having studied with various churches, I came away with the perception that God is no different from the deities of ancient Greek or Roman mythology—demanding sacrifices and taking pleasure in bloodshed. Thanks to your transformative teachings, I have experienced a profound awakening to the true nature of God and the immense power of His love. It is truly a remarkable and liberating sensation to finally grasp the truth and embrace the empowering nature of God’s laws. My self-perception has become brighter and more infused with love. My journey of growth continues on a daily basis.

Chris P., Lake Mary, FL, USA

 

Testimony 33

I was invited over a friend’s house to see the “God and Your Brain” seminar today. I became [a christian] 36 years ago at the age of 19, but have struggled with the concept of God taking His ‘pound of flesh’ out on His Son to be appeased. Wow. Your seminar has been an incredible revelation and breath of reason and fresh air! I have your book, “The God Shaped Brain,” and it is SO eye opening. Finally, after 36 years enlightenment has come! Praise the Good Lord! What can I say, but that the Real Gospel is truly “Good News!” Thank you for your efforts in giving the Gospel a clear sound!

Paul C.,  Springfield, MA, USA

 

Testimony 21

I am absolutly on fire with the message at Come and Reason! I can’t get enough! I’ve read your book, blog, and articles. I’ve listened to your Bible study podcasts, your radio show, and your series – all excellent! It wasn’t until the past couple of years that I have I like I’m becoming “healthy,” with more to share with others than just beasts and commandments! I used to be a Bible worker and preached when the pastors were gone until I had had enough. I didnt realize at the time what the problem was, but i know now… the message wasn’t properly focused. Now my flame is rekindled. All of your little examples are so perfect in explaining something “complicated” and making it easily understood! Now I’m trying to shape it into a life changing evangelistic series! Thank you!

M.T., USA

 

Testimony 8

Thank you for the ministry you are sharing with us, it is a real blessing to us and especially to my husband and myself! You are encouraging us to think for ourselves and not just to except everything, without thinking it through, with God’s word!

M.K., USA

 

Testimony 15

I have been sharing Come And Reason Ministries Bible study lessons with several folk. You have such a beautiful view of the plan of salvation. If we had this message preached when I was young, my generation would still all be in church.

H. R., New Zealand

Testimony 69

After reading your book, ‘Could It Be This Simple,’ someone was explaining Christianity in a way that made sense to me for the first time in my life. One morning, I simply prayed “I’m sorry and I love you.” As soon as I silently said that, I could literally feel God’s presence and light flood down on me from above and fill me up with love and joy. I sat there crying my eyes out, because I was so overpowered with this feeling of love and joy. It was just so incredible. I hope that more people can read this book and get a blessing from it. It’s really amazing.

Rachael H.

Testimony 22

I have found your Bible study class lectures to be very inspiring and useful as I prepare to teach class every other week. I subscribe to the podcast and download your notes on the weeks I teach. The audio and notes are such a great help in preparing. My own understanding of God’s character has grown as I teach the class. Commendations on the thought-provoking and well-prepared material Come and Reason provides. Personally, I get excited by the tie you make between the spiritual and mental/physical domains.

A.A. Corrales, NM, USA

 

Testimony 68

Your message of design law vs imperial law is so uplifting and makes so much sense- it is a game changer for me. The fact that Jesus’s death is not a big payment by an angry God is , quite frankly, a relief.

Laura G., London, Ontario, Canada

 

Testimony 71

When I was 9 years old, I remember setting at our devotional table with a hunger and thirst for God that wanted more, deeper, BETTER. I can remember literally crying and pounding on the table, “I know these teachers didn’t mean to give us error. They taught what THEY had been TAUGHT, but didn’t ANYBODY READ THE BOOK?!?!?” It mattered to me then. It mattered to me as a teenager. It matters now as I teach bible classes. It didn’t have to be so hard as I watched so many give up and lay God’s great plan and gift of salvation aside as being “impossible.” Then, a friend sent me a link to Come And Reason’s website. I grew excited. YES! FINALLY! Then another friend told me to stay away, saying her son had just broken up with a girl because she was involved with Come And Reason and that “Tim Jennings preaches a false gospel.” But, AFTER many years of developing an authentic and, dare I say FUN relationship with Jesus, through the Holy Spirit I see this message has been around a LONG time, since the apostle Paul, Ellen White, Graham Maxwell, Ray Foucher, and yourself (though I admit, you’ve made me back up, rewind and replay the clips, and get out my well-worn Bible on a few things.) I’m so thankful I have found LIGHT during these DARK days. I am not alone.

Vicki DiNitto

Testimony 32

The message [of Come And Reason Ministries is] for all Christians (and those who may become Christians) and not just Adventists or any other group. It is difficult to imagine why any [anyone] with intellectual and spiritual honesty could find fault with the way you explained the healing substitution concepts and the truth about God’s character, though I know some will reject and criticize. On behalf of those in our group near Tacoma, WA, thank you and your staff for all of the hard work and for sharing the Gospel in this manner. God’s message of healing love will be carried to the whole world and then Jesus will come – He promised it.

Terry U., Tacoma, WA, USA

 

Testimony 27

Your teachings about our heavenly Father have changed my life. Thank you sooooooo very very much! I know He’s doing some serious healing in my heart and life and I look forward to each new day to learn something new about Him and to just hear you speak about Him. Thank you, forever.

Nancy S.
