Salvation Explained

Just a simple, yet detailed 7-page message explaining whatever Jesus was talking about in John 3: the basics of salvation and becoming born-again, which Jesus defined as a must to enter Heaven.

Jesus Claims the Need to be Born Again

Jesus explained the need to be born again in only one chapter, John 3. Simple.

Noah's Ark Located

A full treatment on the subject of Noah's Ark and its discovery. Note: This was not published in any article but this one and the now-defunt website of Edward Crawford, who died in 2009. One day soon, it may be revealed to the world as proof of the validity of the story. For now, it remains in the only place one would expect it to be found, between two glaciers atop Mt. Ararat in Turkey, in a unique area that has shown little or no past glacial activity. Our best estimate is 39.7176415 N, 44.2934125 E. Its outline has even been photographed (page 15) by satellite just after a bomb was dropped on it revealing the gabled window matrix described in the Bible. The problem is the great size of the structure is apparently about 2.5 times longer than the 450 feet usually attributed to its length. That's because the "cubit" of this era was about 2.5 times longer than it is known today. The photoanalysis (proof that it is not some Photoshopped fake) is here.

A Post-Tribulation Response to John Walvoord's Fifty Arguments for Pretribulationism

John Walvoord was definitely a great man of God, but his eschatology left something to be desired. Here is a point-by-point critique of his famous 50 points.

Denying the Word of God

Every pastor you probably know of has blown it on one of these two doctrines, and the church system seems to have no alternative. Oh well, at least you can rest confident in adhering to the Word of God.

A Five-Minute Complete Guide to King James Grammar

The complete mystery behind all those thees and thous is exposed along with the endings of -eth, -th, -est, and -st.

Harmony Spreadsheet

This is just a 7-page table of over 360 Biblical events in the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, arranged chronologically. I keep it tucked inside my Bible case for ready reference. The entire Gospel story makes perfect sense when all four accounts are plainly laid out.

Harmony of the Gospels - King James Version

For the more serious student, here are all four Gospels (3779 verses) of the King James Version (Pure Cambrian with words of Christ in red) presented in chronological order with the same over-360 divisions as found in my Harmony Spreadsheet. This above link is as a webpage. If you want it, it is available in .pdf format and also mobile phone format. I got so tired of trying to find a harmony such as this online, that I made this one for my own personal study.

Let Both Grow Together

This is an excellent study of the rapture and a rather simple way, with diagrams, to determine what is the most logical order of things to come. The author's original website is now so haphazard that I decided to reproduce it here.

The Post-Tribulation Resurrection-Rapture

Did you know that Jesus spoke quite openly to his disciples regarding this important subject? Of course, if he did so, the pre-tribulational believers will not be very excited to study these passages. From the prayer of John 17 to the parables of Mark 13 to several other passages, I attempt to outline this important subject. For a plainer view, see Let Both Grow Together, outlined above.

The Rapture Litmus Paper

This is Edward Crawford's explanatory short story and commentary on the timing of the Rapture and how we, as people, are so easily deceived.

A Simple Proof of the Post-Tribulation Rapture

Okay, I've simplified the rapture into a six-point one-page proof as post-tribulational. Just take a look at the verses which actually mention the rapture as a beginning point.

Chart of the Tribulation

Everybody else has one posted, so I decided to do my own take on the events of the Tribulation. I endeavored to separate it into what can be known and inferred.

The Book of Enoch Examined

Almost unknown is the Book of Enoch. Here are the reasons why.

Spock on Religion

This is more of a personal testimony of my own faith voyage. Adopting the persona of Spock (that's the Star Trek alien with pointed ears who valued logic, for those who don't know), I try to point out the logic of Christianity. At the end of the article, I illustrate several miracles I have experienced as proof.

Calvinism and TULIP: 'Five-Point Calvinism'

This is Dr. Floyd Nolen Jones' Th.D. Ph.D. commentary on the famous outlines of John Calvin's (1509-1564) "Five-Point Calvinism" theology. What is true and untrue about these five points?

The Book of Revelation

This is just the book of Revelation, divided into over 90 segments for easier study. Also available in .pdf version.

Which Bible?

A really simple map to finding the best (and only) Bible in English. It's really a mistake to accept the word Isaiah in Mark 1:2. Are thee and thou really appropriate today? Either the "bible" you are now reading is pure or it is not.

September 23, 2017

Remember this famous non-event in 2017? Probably not. It was supposed to be the rapture or something, but I guess the astronomy didn't pan out.

The Birth and Crucifixion of Jesus in View of the 70 Weeks of Daniel

When was Jesus born and crucified? The Bible has the exact answer. Would you believe he lived for 12048.5 days? Moreover, this article is perfect for recommending to your Jewish and Moslem friends.

The Gospel Colophons and the Synoptic Problem

By Dr. Floyd Nolen Jones Th.D. Ph.D.  According to many of the earliest manuscripts, the dating of the Gospels was sure. Matthew was published in 38 AD (not the currently estimated 85-90 AD), Mark was published in 40 AD (not the currently estimated 66-70 AD), Luke was published in 45 AD (not the currently estimated 85-90 AD), and John was published in 62 AD (not the currently estimated 90-110 AD). So, they are presented in chronological order and hundreds of manuscripts attest to this!

A Critical Look at Blood Moon Tetrads

Remember the not-so-famous blood moon tetrads? I don't see why they were so attractive. They were mostly invisible from Israel.

The REAL 144,000

The enigmatic 144,000 Jews have confused scholars for centuries. Here is my interpretation.

Bible Chronology and Textual Criticism Resources

This is a webpage of significant interest to Biblical chronologists and textual critics. The entire outline of the 4032.5 years of history from Creation to the Cross in charts plus a few articles on textual criticism by Dr. Floyd Nolen Jones Th.D., Ph. D.
