Progress is being made but slowly and there are things i wish to say.

People think they go to heaven when they die while the wicked go to live in hell.

Death is called 'death' because you die. Death is not a time of life and consciousness.
When Jesus died he died. It was only some days after his resurrection that he ascended to his Father.

Tomorrow we will quickly look at all the main events of life and death for the billions born before Jesus Christ who never heard the gospel or even his name.

Make sure you continue to study the Bible every day. There is a time coming of a famine for the Word of God when the righteous man will not be found. It's urgent. That's why Jesus cried out in a loud voice for men to hear.

Should be able to complete 'god-references.html' today. . . . Yes!

People beset by tragedy, and there are millions, ask, "Why, God, why?".

The answer awful as it is, is that the world we live in is Satan's world; it is the world of the desires of the flesh, it is the world of the evil desires of men's hearts. Until Jesus returns things will only get worse.

This question needs more time spent on it. Jesus warned us to expect tribulation in this life.

How do we know there is a God?

If you were to land on a desert island, and there on the beach a computer had been set up on a table, and with a power generator, you would know that man had been there before you.

If then you take a walk on the island, taking note of the varieties of plants, thousands of insects, the different forms of life on the edge of the shoreline, you know that God has been there before you.

How can we believe the Bible?

Just as a piece of literature by itself, the Bible is a wondrous thing. Scholars of Hebrew and ancient language marvel at its intricacy and the marvellous feats of language skill.

Could you have invented the Bible? Could any man or groups of men have invented it?

Could you write something that would be studied for thousands of years? .. that men would lay down their lives for? .. that accurately foretold future events? .. that despite immense opposition would still be passed down from generation to generation? .. that gives the foundations for a joyous, wealthy, and healthy society?

Just as a small example; Psalm 119 contains 176 verses, each verse being related to Gods laws and ways. On top of this, the verses have an alphabetic pattern to them.

Happy is the nation whose rulers long for the coming government of God!

Updating 'Future History References' taking much longer than I thought!

Lost many days caused by having to re-install XP.
The wealthy person (of June 18) is not necessarily wicked, but the wealthier you are the less chance you have of entering the Kingdom (not impossible, Jesus said, but harder).

Will continue to tidy up the "Future History" section.
As part of Bible study over the last few months I have analysed the book of Job (I am not implying that it is by any means a complete analysis). As soon as I am able I would like to share with you my own personal comments on it.
Even from a worldly point of view Job was one of the great men of his time.

Despite the topics that we need to cover (some urgently I feel), the site overhaul should continue.

Some of the topics to be covered -

• we need to love and protect our women, but they must not rule over the husband, nor lead worship in church meetings;
  
• the deceit of wealth; it is not a sign of godliness;
  
• child-rearing;
  
• those, who are cast into the lake of fire at the final judgment, die totally. They do not burn for ever, but their life is over for ever. "Salvation for all" is a false doctrine.

Deleted the new page 'Letter On Women' (was added June 8). Could not rest easy with its style.

I want to put more time into this web site. We are in the process of overhauling the whole site - the old home page being index.php , the new one at index.html .

We have added -

• Life But Not As We Know It

mainly because it is immediately available, and, I hope, entertaining and useful.
