Help For Hurting Homes
This worksheet is for those who are honestly interested in having a Christian marriage that is both happy and God glorifying. Lack of honesty with yourself and toward God will doom any effort to heal your home.

Marriage, Divorce and Remarriage — A Biblical Perspective
Our prayer in this series of studies was to know the mind of God or the attitude of God toward marriage, divorce and re-marriage. The focus of our study was to understand what allowance God has made for those who are the “victims” in a situation where their partner has been guilty of sexual immorality or where their partner has abandoned them. Our desire was to first allow the scripture to indicate God’s original intent in the marriage. Second, to understand what allowance God, in his mercy, has granted those whose spouse has not followed God’s original intent relevant to marriage.

Are You Really A Promise Keeper
Greetings from a man who has walked in your shoes. I attended the Boulder ‘93 PK Conference. I was a counselor at the conference in Denton, Texas and then attended the conference at Texas Stadium. I have been to several Leadership Seminars and rallies. I will not hesitate to say that I had a blast. There were many things that troubled me about the whole movement, but I was on such an emotional high that I refused to investigate those stirrings.

The Transition in Acts
The Book of Acts is the inspired history of the overlapping of two programs of God with men: (1) the continuation and phasing out of His program with national Israel; and (2) the beginning and early development of His present program of building a spiritual “new man,” the church which is Christ’s body, of all who believe the gospel of Christ from all nations. The book of Acts records a period of transition from one program to the other.

The Uniqueness and Consequent Intolerance of Christ
A radio broadcast by Maurice Johnson, which is just as true and relevant today as it was in the 1950’s when this was broadcast.

Rightly Dividing the Word
The Bible is the word of God. It sufficiently supplies our need for the knowledge of God, and is an adequate chart, compass and guide for us in the life that now is, and in things eternal.

Does Easter Glorify Christ?
Easter traces its roots back to the vilest pagan traditions which are specifically condemned by the word of God. Christians should seek to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ in their lives as directed by the Bible and not through pagan traditions.

Seasons Greetings
Sincerely and honestly, at this time and always, we wish you the joy from above that only the Lord Jesus Christ can give — let us tell you why — we wish you then, not a Merry Christmas, but a joyous eternity.

Happy Halloween?
The origins of Halloween are popish and pagan in the extreme, incorporating pagan practices that are condemned by God”s word. Christians should not mix demonic, satanic, witchcraft with their spiritual natures.

Evidence of Salvation
When a baby is born into this world there is positive proof they are alive. They breathe, cry, wriggle, eat and all the things associated with human physical life. As time passes they grow and perceive more and more of their being and respond accordingly. Even so, when a person becomes a child of God, their new spiritual life is manifest in ways that may be identified as unique to a child of God. Following is a list of such evidence.

You Can Know You Are Saved
This is the gospel truth on salvation—not just someone’s opinion—but the truth directly from God”s word. As the Apostle John wrote, “These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.”

Isn’t it Strange?
Isn’t it strange that Jesus Christ, who claimed to be God, made this offer, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matt. 11:28) — but most have refused to go to Him for the solution to their problems. Notice, He said, “Come to ME,” not to religion.

Are You a Religious Drunkard?
If there is only “one, true, spiritual church” then, of course, the so-called “visible” churches are not “true” and they are not “spiritual.” Since the Lord Jesus Christ is building only one church, the one concerning which He promised: “Upon this rock I will build my church,” who but a “drunk” could think He is building any one of these man-made, local churches — to say nothing of the 666 varying, competing, sectarian corporations called Christian Churches?

Join the Church of Your Choice or Join the Church of God’s Choice
Is there a Church of God’s choice for his children? We believe God has commanded us to endeavor to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. We want to study God’s word with you to prove the body of Christ is functional and the only church the Lord is building. Salvation by God’s grace makes you a member of His church.

Shocking Facts About the Church
This little brochure may have some information about The Church that will be shocking to you. Some of the names have been changed for the benefit of those who might not want to be identified, but the truth will remain just as shocking to many.

Three Open Leters To Herbert W. Armstrong
These letters were written many years ago, and there have been changes in the so-called World Wide Church of God since then, but we are continuing to publish them because they have been referenced in other wide-spread literature and we still receive many requests for them. We know that Satan doesn’t have any new tricks up his sleeves, so these principles can help today, “lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices (2 Corinthians 2:11).”

Testing the Mormon Gospel
Since we are instructed in the word of God to ”prove all things and hold fast to that which is good“ (1 Thess 5:21), at least three questions should immediately come to mind. How does the gospel ministered by the apostle Paul in the Bible compare with the ”fullness of the everlasting gospel“ contained in Mormonism? Does Joseph Smith pass God’s test for a true prophet? Does the ”account of the former inhabitants of this continent“ in the Book of Mormon find verification in history and archaeology as the Bible does with its record?

8 Kinds of Death
God’s definitions of death are as surely divine REVELATIONS as are His definitions of life. Only the Spirit of God can reveal to us the real meaning of Paul’s inspired declaration that “She that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth”.—1 Tim. 5:6. So also with John’s statement in 1 John 5:12: “He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life”.
