Title
Mystery of the Messiah
Author
Jean Beardsley Allen
Synopsis
Our world is one of love and hate, order and disorder where the wondrous creation is both visible and invisible. Such are the things which testify to the presence of the Almighty God versus His adversary, Satan, the Prince of this wicked world and the author of all sin.
The spiritual bombardment of evil forces has insidiously disrupted God's plan and purpose for mankind. His Word, the Bible, is our guide to understanding and truth. We are called to learn of Him, to trust, obey, witness and love one another. He promises peace, hope, joy and eternal life to all those who believe in him. "... God is love." 1 John 4:8
America's early ancestors recognized this and they glorified the Lord. The Bible was their source of truth. In faith, they struggled for civil and religious freedom and God blessed them. Our nation is the greatest on earth. According to prophecy, we are nearing the end of time "and because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold." Matthew 24:12 There will also be a lack of knowledge or desire to know God. Our people are reaping the heartache of their departure from Him and His laws since sin is self-destructive. Hopefully this message will inspire a closer walk with God.
