Seven Better Things Than This World Offers – Part 2
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
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
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
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
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
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.

-
Little Red Riding Hood and the Pretenders Among Us
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
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
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
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
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.
