Roderick C. Meredith (1930-2017)

The Bible talks about the Lord's Day, and people like to say that was Sunday. But the Lord's Day spoken of in Revelation is the time when God will intervene in human affairs and SHAKE the nations and SHAKE every mountain and every island out of its place.

Last time, we reached Chapter 12 verse 37. Here, Jesus said: "By your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned." We have to be very careful what we say when we judge, evaluate or condemn others. We had better be very careful, indeed, and watch our words. We must be…

So many Sunday school teachers tell people, as mine did, "You don't need to understand everything.

Jesus spoke…

The Kingdom of God is awesome! The opportunity to be born as a very son of God in the soon—coming resurrection from the dead is so much more important than all the other things in this world—all the other things in your life—that there is absolutely no comparison. We need to seek first the Kingdom…

The elders of the Jews had added all sorts of traditions that were not God's Laws. These men had come up with things; they washed their hands clear up to the elbow very carefully. They tried to be very physically clean and very proper. There is nothing wrong with being clean, but these men were…

Most people today cannot discern the signs of the times. We are living right now in the times of the end. The most horrifying tribulation ever to hit any peoples on the face of the earth is about to come on the American and British-descended peoples, unless we repent with a genuine and awesome…

Jesus had just gotten through saying, in the previous verse, Matthew 16:28: "Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom." HOW did these three disciples see Jesus coming?

At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"...Notice that it does not say "the kingdom in heaven," but rather the "kingdom of heaven." The Bank of Morgan is not Mr. Morgan's piggy bank "in him" as if he swallowed it. It is the Bank of Morgan—…

The Pharisees also came to Him [Remember, they were the very strictest sect of the Jews. They were very technical, very legalistic and very self-righteous. They were trying to trick Jesus and they were constantly testing Him on things. They wanted to see if they could catch Him on some mistake or…

Through God's spirit, everyone can overcome, no matter what becomes a god in the place of the true God. People can humble themselves. They can have the strength to overcome through the spirit of God. Let's turn to verse 27.

As Jesus came into Jerusalem, word reached His disciples, then their friends, then their neighbors.

And Jesus answered and spoke to them again by parables and said: "The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who arranged a marriage for his son, and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding; and they were not willing to come." [They could have come, but were not…
