  • The Message to Laodicea — Sent to the Seventh-day Adventist Church – Part 1

    The Message to Laodicea — Sent to the Seventh-day Adventist Church – Part 1

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    In 1890, one of the founders of the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) Church, Ellen G. White (EGW), who the church officially recognizes as having the special gift of prophecy, wrote an absolutely stunning article published in the church’s official flagship publication, The Review and Herald, in which she specifically applies the Laodicean message to the SDA Church.

    Being Faithful to God—How Do We Do This?

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    If we could go back in time and interview Saul of Tarsus before his Damascus Road experience and ask him, as he is persecuting Christians, “Saul, are you being faithful to God and His covenant with Israel?” — what do you think he would have said? Can people be faithful to something other than God and God’s cause?

  • Victory in the New Year

    Victory in the New Year

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    What do you think of the idea that, whatever our age, it is easier to do wrong than to do right? Is this an absolute truth, a situational truth, or an untruth? If it contains truth, when is it true?

  • Introverts, Extroverts, and God’s Design for Life

    Introverts, Extroverts, and God’s Design for Life

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    Are people either an introvert or an extrovert? Are you one or the other? What was Jesus? Can you be of service to people if you are an introvert?

  • Obedience of Faith or Law?

    Obedience of Faith or Law?

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    When you hear calls to be obedient to God’s law, what comes to mind? Do you think of God’s law like our human laws, rules imposed that God polices and enforces through punishments?

  • The Only Solution for “Trump Derangement Syndrome”

    The Only Solution for “Trump Derangement Syndrome”

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    If people continue to focus upon fears, threats, the world, the abuses, the injustices, then their future, with all its potential imaginary threats, will only get worse.

  • An Object Lesson for Our Preparation for Heaven

    An Object Lesson for Our Preparation for Heaven

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    After 40 years of wandering in the desert, the Israelites were finally about to walk into the Promised Land. But before they could enter, there was still one thing they needed to do to be made ready. We read about this in Joshua chapter five. Stories like this one were recorded in the Bible under the inspiration of God not only to document real historical people who did real historical things, but also to serve as object lessons that teach us the larger plan of salvation.

  • Mounts Gerizim and Ebal: An Object Lesson of Blessings, Cursings, and Salvation

    Mounts Gerizim and Ebal: An Object Lesson of Blessings, Cursings, and Salvation

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal are an interesting object lesson, because when God brought the Israelites into the land of Canaan, he told them to pronounce a blessing on Mount Gerizim and a curse on Mount Ebal. Why?

  • Gideon: An Object Lesson for Today

    Gideon: An Object Lesson for Today

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    Gideon cognitively believed in God; he knew God was leading. But before he could succeed, he had to overcome some things in his own life.

  • The Deaths of Stephen, George Floyd, and Charlie Kirk

    The Deaths of Stephen, George Floyd, and Charlie Kirk

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    My focus in this blog is not on the deceased individuals or the events related to their deaths, but in the aftermath of their deaths, the response of people who would be considered supporters of these individuals.

  • Daniel 8:14 — Does It Really Span 2,300 Years?

    Daniel 8:14 — Does It Really Span 2,300 Years?

    by

    Tim Jennings, M.D.

    There is an effective criticism that the 2,300 days in Daniel 8:14 are not prophetic days and should not be interpreted as 2,300 years. There are multiple lines of persuasive argument from thoughtful people to support this idea. However, I do not believe they are correct. Here’s why…

    Satan’s Agents in the Church

Testimony 29

Thank you for all of your work to correct misconceptions about God’s character. So many people that my husband and I have talked to seem to be against the natural law construct and view it as “errant” and “dangerous.” Having learned more about it through your blogs and lessons, I don’t really understand why they view it that way, except that it means they have to relearn theology they have known for their entire lives. But I’m so excited to relearn this. For the past few years I have been questioning how I could trust a God who punishes arbitrarily and is full of wrath for those who don’t obey His commands. That view made me afraid to “mess up” or “not be good enough,” even within my relationship with God. I really appreciated the point you bring out about God not wanting us to serve Him because we are afraid, but because we love Him.

Melissa H., IN, USA

 

Testimony 10

I personally download and listen to each of Come And Reason Ministries Bible study class lessons and PDF study notes to use when teaching my class. Really appreciate the class especially when Dr. Jennings is teaching. Thank God there are persons like him doing His work and traveling to share His beliefs.

B. L.M., North Plains, OR, USA

 

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.

Testimony 49

I came into the church at 21, but that is as far as it went. I was so confused about what love is. I couldn’t find it in the bible, because I am not a person that can read between the lines. I have no logic. I have read many, many books; trying to figure out the crux of the matter. They were helpful, but something was still missing. I have become very frustrated to the point of crying out to God, “Where can I go?”  I needed some basics.

I found two books, written by Timothy Jennings, MD, to be very helpful. God showed me that I had lived my whole life in fear. I didn’t even see it. Now, I do. God is so good.  I discovered the “The Remedy”  Dr. Jennings new book, “The God-Shaped Heart!” Oh, I was so excited, I purchased them right away.

I can get rid of most of my books, because “The Remedy” brings the Love of God out so clearly, even I can’t miss it. Now, I want to sit and read my Bible. Wow, what a revelation! It is just simply Awesome! I am so grateful to Jehovah Almighty for hearing my prayer for more understanding! I am so encouraged!

Testimony 37

Hearing Dr. Jennings’ presentations in person came at a pivotal moment in my spiritual journey that began about nine months ago, when the fault lines inherent in my belief system began to crack under questions that most reasonable people end up asking about God and His nature. These were questions I couldn’t find answers to, and they shook my faith. I was unable let it go any longer and be satisfied. My Christian experience became distant. I was afraid; the fear in me rose like thorns, pushing me away from Jesus. And then someone heard my questions and introduced me to this ministry, and my life has totally changed.

I can tell you that this new, “present truth” message is far grander and life-changing than when I shifted from being an agnostic and then a nominal Christian. It has radically altered my worldview, because it reveals a God that makes sense. It is a revolution. I believe that Dr. Jennings’ message is the final message that must go to the world. If any message could be called “righteousness by faith,” as abused as that term is by the right and the left, this is that message, because Jennings’ biblical message identifies a God who is different, whose character isn’t an impossible contradiction.

I walk this path now without fear. I see people differently, and the Holy Spirit burns in my heart. Many call Dr. Jennings’ message false and compromising, but it isn’t false, because I’ve seen the fruits within my mind and body. It is not compromising, because in this message is the only road to holiness that makes any sense. No longer do I behold a pagan god who is always angry and suspicious. Instead, I behold a God who is freeing and loving, always working for our good, and giving me every reason to love my enemy even to my own death, just as Jesus pleads with us. God is good.

Testimony 44

We were given a gift of the DVD set, “God and Your Brain,” and we just finished watching it. The truths in this are so powerful and truly an answer to a prayer. We’re seeing hope where once we thought God wasn’t answering our prayers to be free of certain mindsets. He answered with these DVDs and we are hungry for more. Thank you!

Daniel T., Easley, SC, USA

 

Testimony 72

I am blown away by the truth that you present. God’s Design Law makes so much sense! You have validated my impression that, if God is love, He would not kill those who don’t want to know him. If God gives us choice, then how can He destroy us if our choice is not to follow him. Thank you for opening my eyes and heart to the pure love of God seen through Jesus. The love I now have for Jesus is deeper and free from condemnation. My heart has been opened to love others as Jesus loves me. May God continue to bless your God-given insight into His word and your ministry. The truth has set me free!

H. Miller, Centereach, NY

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 48

I just want to tell you how blessed I have been reading “The Remedy!” It has become a daily part of my devotional relationship with God. In it I have found a God of love and a God that loves me! The bible has come alive for me! It is the first time that I can say that I have felt hope fill my heart as I have read God’s word. This is good news I can share! Thank you, Dr Jennings! Thank you for your heart for others. I can’t put into words how this has set me free! It has strengthened my trust and love for God.

Testimony 17

The blessings of clarity and understanding you and your class inspire me to take from the word of God have impressed upon me so greatly the true, loving character of our Creator. I have found amazing freedom and joy through building a stronger, more intentional relationship with Him. What is new is that this is now a relationship built on love, reverence and respect rather than fear and obligation, and as such my eyes have been slammed OPEN as I am continually impressed by the manifestations of God’s true character in His provisions for fallen man.

T.E.H., Salt Lake City, UT, USA

 

Testimony 16

Your seminars are still inspiring and changing our lives and we continue to share the principles we have learned from you. Your ministry has changed our lives!

Testimony 76

Warm greetings from Tanzania! I just wanted to take a moment to thank you and your team at Come And Reason Ministries for the amazing work you do. Your teachings have opened my eyes to deep biblical truths and how to live them out in real life. I started following the ministry back in 2018, and ever since, my walk with God has grown so much stronger. I’ve found freedom from fear-based faith and now live with more peace and trust in Him. I’ve also been sharing what I’ve learned, especially through Bible School discussions. Your lessons are so insightful and well-explained that I try not to miss a single one. May God continue to bless the work you’re doing.
Elisha M., Tanzania, Africa

Testimony 47

I can’t even begin to thank you and your ministry enough for introducing me to the Truth about a loving and merciful God! I have my daughter and her in-laws to thank for sharing with me “The God-Shaped Brain” as well as your website. I listen to the Bible study class lessons on my daily walk. May God continue to bless your thirst-quenching ministry!

Liz H., Port Angeles, WA, USA

 

 

Testimony 31

It was very touching to hear the testimony of your class share how viewing God’s true character has changed their lives. My feelings are the same – there is so much freedom in knowing that God LOVES me – regardless of my… just, REGARDLESS! I’m still blown away by the true gospel, the fact that God is not ready to strike us when we fail. He is not arbitrary. He simply loves us and warns of the natural consequences because He can’t stand to see us suffer. I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS GOD!!!

Ceil V.,  UT, USA

 

Testimony 18

The Healing the Mind DVD set tarted me on a journey that has changed my relationship with our loving God more significantly than any other study, and brought me to your book and Bible study podcasts, which I now listen to daily, thanks to the availability of archived content on your site and on iTunes.
