    Is Capital Punishment the Same Thing as Taking Up the Sword?

    Man's unique position in relationship to God affords him special status regarding his life; neither beast nor other men may so take man's life except they forfeit their own for their crime.  This is not to say that the one who deserves such punishment cannot be punished by other men.  Certainly, if God commanded men to kill the one who murders, then men may so carry out God's command without offense to God.

  • What is the First Resurrection? What is the Thousand Year Reign?

    This means that the saints that reign with Christ for 1000 years are people who have been come into the likeness of the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ; these are the saved. It is the saved that reign with Christ for 1000 years. Consider what Peter says in 1 Peter 2:9, “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”

    God’s Word Helps Me to Endure Persecution

    In this part of Psalm 119, we will see that God’s word helps me to endure persecution. God 1) hears my request for relief, 2) sees the relentlessness of the wicked, and 3) provides respite when I yield to His word. Each listener should take comfort in knowing that God hears, sees, and provides when His people are persecuted.
