Bob Vermaat’s column “A Christian Israelite View” has drawn a wide following and is often reprinted in other publications. A retired carpenter, he and his wife came to the message after reading an article in a newspaper, an article that instantly led them to the truth. That was thirty years ago and it began his mainly one on one ministry of spreading news of the Gospel of the Kingdom and the Israel Truth. He attributes his growing knowledge partly through brief associations with such scholarly pastors such as Karl Schott, Sheldon Emry, Robert Record, George Southwick and Bob Bell. We are indeed pleased that approximately two years ago Bob agreed to become president of this Association and he has proved his teaching abilities through meetings that he chairs during Sunday services. He is also an accomplished Gospel singer and inspires those of us who are fortunate to listen. A modest man, he understands that each time he sits down to study Scripture, a new understanding comes to life and he is always astounded by what he learns.
When reading Paul’s Epistle to the Galatians, especially chapters three, four, and five, we come to realize that the concept of faith is and should be first and foremost in every believer’s life. It is the driving force, the mainstay in the believer’s life that enables us to have a full and rewarding relationship with…
A candle was lit two thousand years ago. It was lit amongst a people that for hundreds of years had dwelt in darkness and paganism. They were lost, but they did not know it. The candle or flame that was lit amongst them was lit by some of those who had seen the true light…
“So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the House of Israel; therefore, thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.” (Eze. 33:7) The 33rd chapter of Ezekiel starts off with an analogy depicting a nation or a people on a war footing and describing…
“For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.” (1Cor. 15:21-22) Just recently as I was doing a word search through the NT in preparation for my article on the questions about the names…
“And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM; and He said, thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hast sent me unto you.” (Ex. 3:14) Recently, during some Bible study sessions, someone posed some questions that are worth looking at in some more detail and depth. The questions being…
“Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou art my servant; I have formed thee; thou art my servant, O Israel; thou shalt not be forgotten by me. I have blotted out, like a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, like a cloud, thy sins; return unto me; for I have redeemed thee!” (Isa. 44:21, 22)…
We have just passed the first month of a new year and as someone once wrote, “We are setting sail this year on the greatest adventure of all ages”. I wonder how many of us really believe this? Or perhaps, shut our eyes to the reality of what might be coming. Bible students will tell…
In my last article I talked about the prophecy in Ezekiel 17:22 about the young twigs being cut from a tall cedar, the tall cedar being King Zedekiah and the young twigs being his offspring. Since the young twig is to be a tender one, we determined it to mean that it had to be…
“And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.” (Isa. 2:2) In my last article I talked about the prophecy in Ezekiel 17:22 about…
“Thus saith the Lord, who giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, who divideth the sea when its waves roar; …. If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease…
