Christianity versus Other Religions

March 18, 2010 Blogs Tim Jennings, M.D.

It’s occurred to me that all religions have at least one thing in common — they all offer that one’s life will continue on after they physically die;

Imputed Righteousness

March 5, 2010 Blogs Tim Jennings, M.D.

How do I know when I am saved, or How do I know when I am justified? This concern seems to center on the realization that all imperfections have not been overcome and so how can one have security.

Church Attendance & Conspiracies

February 26, 2010 Blogs Tim Jennings, M.D.

Could explain the pros and cons of church attendance? Are there times when it is not healthy to attend and what attitude should we bring when we do attend.

Christ: Our Remedy to Sin!

February 19, 2010 Blogs Tim Jennings, M.D.

I have often heard it said that Christ brought the cure for sin, but no one has ever answered these questions satisfactorily for me. Can you spell out in details for me exactly what the cure for sin is

Are Sins Passed Down to Our Children?

February 12, 2010 Bible Answers That Make Sense, Blogs, Family and Relationship Health Tim Jennings, M.D.

I have always believed that hereditary tendencies are what I received from my parents, whereas cultivated tendencies are what I learned as a child and as an adult. If so, then do tendencies (right or wrong) to sin pass down?

Meaning are the sins my parents did passed down as hereditary tendencies to me?

Is There Absolute Truth?

February 5, 2010 Blogs Tim Jennings, M.D.

We were recently engaged in a intense discussion about “TRUTH” is there such a thing as “ABSOLUTE TRUTH” and if there is where is it found?

Recent Attacks

January 29, 2010 Blogs Tim Jennings, M.D.

As of this writing, our class has been “reviled” over the last several weeks by some who have taken it upon themselves to misrepresent what we teach. This week I came across the following passage and it reminded me why we should not be discouraged,

What Does the Law Demand?

January 22, 2010 Blogs Tim Jennings, M.D.

I was introduced to the “Healing Model” view of the Atonement and surrounding ideas some time last year and have been prayerfully and thoughtfully considering these ideas and beliefs that it is a better understanding. However, I don’t believe Ellen White also held these views based on some statements that I have come across in

Homosexuality: Sin, Disorder, or Something Else?

January 15, 2010 Blogs Tim Jennings, M.D.

I would like to thank you for helping me understand the character of God better. I want to ask a question regarding homosexuality. I believe it is wrong and an abomination in the eyes of God, but I have been told

Victorious Living – Now or Then?

January 8, 2010 Blogs, Character Development, Mental Health and Healing Tim Jennings, M.D.

I am in tune with the trust and healing model of atonement and posted this on-line:

“Those who believe on Christ and obey His commandments are not under bondage to God’s law; for to those who believe and obey, His law is not a law of bondage, but of liberty.

Jesus: Angry Executioner or Baby of Bethlehem?

December 25, 2009 Bible Answers That Make Sense, Blogs Tim Jennings, M.D.

Last weekend our class started the lesson guide for the new year, The Fruit of the Spirit. I was so shocked by one paragraph, from Thursday, December 31, that I had to blog about it. Here is the paragraph:

What Do “Blood of Jesus” and “Hand of God” Mean?

December 18, 2009 Bible Answers That Make Sense, Blogs Tim Jennings, M.D.

I heard one of your podcasts where you where talking about the true meaning of the phrase “Blood of Jesus.” Could you elaborate on that and this one: “Hand of God”?

We can also find the imagery in certain stories like when God made his goodness pass before Moses and covered him with His “hand”. What is Gods hand really? Is it His providence? The Holy Spirit?

Testimony 67

I was introduced to Come And Reason by a friend of my mother-in-law, who gave me several CD's of Dr. Jennings. The clarity of the message and recognition that God's is a God of love was so clear, advancing beyond Dr. Maxwell's message. However, grappled with Maxwell saying God used emergency measures for the fallen world. Now after several years of being a regular listener of the Come And Reasoning bible study class and attending Jennings' meetings in Dallas/Fort Worth, TX, things are becoming clearer for me. Design law versus imposed law has added so much to my personal understanding of theology. This message has really impacted my work in counseling so many people miserable because they are searching for and trusting human governments to create order and peace or believing in a God who says love Me or I will kill you. I am grateful that I have an alternative view to offer my clients that makes sense. I teach a bible study class on a semi-regular basis and I value the materials that Come And Reason so freely offers to aid me in presenting this vital message. Thank you for continuing to provide advancement in our very limited understanding of a Infinite God that is rational and believable.

Dr. Roger D, Arlington, TX, USA

Testimony 26

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.

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.

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!

Testimony 30

God lead me to your book "The God-Shaped Brain" while I was searching for another book about the brain and then to your interview about your book on HeartWise Ministries [where] I found out about [Come And Reason Ministries]. I'm now devouring the webcasts of your Bible studies. I have been so greatly blessed and I thank God so much for your courage to speak the Truth in love no matter what. Listening to you contrast the two opposing systems (laws) and digging deep to unearth the hidden treasures in the Bible makes me so incredibly happy and I feel very blessed to be part of your Bible Study Group although I live far away. I am just so excited that there is a group of people that is spreading the Truth about the character of God and it saddens me how few realize what our Father in Heaven is really like.

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

Testimony 9

I really enjoy with you the view of a gracious God. Thank you for sharing the work you are allowing the Lord to do in you.

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 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.

I would love to have a copy of "Healing the Mind" DVDs to have in my therapy office. I enjoy having clients check out materials to enhance their therapy experience. I have sat under Dr. Jennings' teaching at an American Association of Christian Counselors convention and respect his work greatly.

Testimony 7

Ok, so last night I listened to "The Law of Liberty" and "How to Achieve Victory: Freedom, Truth and Spirtual Warfare." These are both MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES so far! The logic is just soooooo beautiful. I had to re-listen to them a couple of times. I just want to EXPLODE! (<< we assume with joy and happiness)

Testimony 5

We listen to your bible studies lessons in our class in Montana. You actually were the main reason I decided to get a laptop, so I can go to your site and listen, read, learn, and print the class notes. I am so grateful to learn the correct view of God and his character. Now, to just have others have an interest in knowing, so I can share it with them. Good thoughts your way.

R. N., MT, USA

Testimony 65

I have been tuning into your weekly study classes for a while now and wanted express my appreciation for the teachings that ha been a huge blessing in opening up the true message of the word. Viewing scripture under an imposed law theory always, without fail, raised more questions, concerns, and conflicting scripture interpretations that were discouraging at the very least. Looking at scripture through the design law lens has brought more truth to light for me personally and an understanding of our Heavenly Father that places Him “above all others,” where I am now more than thrilled to witness and serve Him. I “stumbled” across this ministry a year or so ago and would only watch a few minutes at a time. But the more I listened and the longer I paid attention, the more my spiritual eyes were opened to the ever present truths of scripture. The comprehension of the great controversy and it’s origin by the lies perpetrated and perpetuated throughout the Bible on the attack of God’s character and government is truly priceless. Keep up the Good Work! Your servanthood is desperately needed in such a time as this!

Jeff D., Reading, MA, 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!

Testimony 3

My husband is a pastor and I listen to your lesson almost every week. Thank you for helping me in my study life and to help me love the "real" God more.

Testimony 39

[This ministry is the] biggest blessing I have ever received! Your DVDs and lessons could not have come at a better time in my life. I have experienced in the past year many difficulties that, if it wasn't for this wonderful view of God that I have discovered through this ministry, I would not have been able to respond in love and forgiveness. My heart is being transformed everyday by the Calvary-looking God you teach. Hallelujah!! I have tears in my eyes as I write, because my life has taken a complete turn from where I was heading.

I am from Central America. Most of my family is scattered in different parts of the world and all have the same view of God that I had growing up; a distant, exacting, and ready-to-punish-us-with-tragedy type of God. So, I have been translating lessons for my family and, to my surprise, they have also been sharing them with others! I can already see the difference. My brother has often said, "Thank you for sharing, I have never heard it this way!" My other family members are taking an amazing turn from a message of "repent or burn" towards a loving God, pleading to us that we won't reject him because he loves us eternally.

Bless you for all you do.

Testimony 59

I'm a native Ghanan, but am currently in France for my master's degree. Prior to this, during my final years at undergraduate studies in Ghana, I was introduced to your ministry and I've been immensely blessed by what you share, especially about the Design and Imposed Laws. God richly bless you for that.

One of the first things I did when I arrived in France was to buy all four of your books. They not only helped me, but those I shared them with. I shared the message with an atheist student and I marveled at how God worked mightily in his life. Today this person shares the Love of God with others and debunks theories of who God is not. I want to share what you present in your "Heavenly Sanctuary and Investigative Judgment" pamphlet, because the message brought rest to my soul and I live today as a healthy person.

God bless you so much and your ministry.

Michael A., Ghana

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!
