How Can We Know That Christ’s Return Is Near?

Viewable PDF Printable PDF Introduction It seems that Christians throughout history have commonly believed that Christ would return during their lifetime. The early New Testament apostles believed this until it became clear to them that His return would not occur that quickly. Based on the upheaval at the time of Martin Luther, he believed that Christ would return soon, as did those who were plagued by the devastating Black Death. Strong earthquakes, heavenly occurrences, devastating natural disasters, famine, pestilences and great wars prompted many to believe that they would experience the soon-coming return of Christ. They all looked at certain signs and predictions, which were startling and frightening, but they did not look at the entire picture. More recently, the Worldwide Church of God under its late human leader, Herbert W. Armstrong, who died in 1986, believed for a while that Christ might return in the 1970s, or even earlier. At that time, numerous prophecies seemed to indicate, convincingly, that the Day was near, but some end-time prophecies did not find their fulfillment then. Why do we feel that it is any different today? What specific world developments lead us to believe that Christ’s return is indeed near, and why […]

The Sabbath and God’s Commanded Holy Days

To Request a FREE hard copy of these booklets, please write to: contact@eternalgod.org What is the weekly Sabbath and when do we keep it?  Did Jesus and the early apostles keep this day?  Are Christians still commanded to keep it today, as the 7th day of the week?  If so, how should it be kept correctly?  What about the annual Festivals and Holy Days described in the Bible, such as Passover, the Days of Unleavened Bread, Pentecost, the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, the Feast of Tabernacles and the Last Great Day? Did Jesus and the early apostles keep these days? Are these days still binding on Christians today?  And if they are, when and how would they have to be kept?

How to Keep the Sabbath

How to Keep the Sabbath

Viewable PDF Printable PDF Introduction Many believe and teach that Christians are no longer obligated to observe the weekly Sabbath—the period from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset. This conclusion is incorrect. True Christians know and have proven for themselves from the pages of the Bible that they are still duty-bound today to keep the weekly Sabbath, as it is holy time. We offer biblical proof in our free booklet, God’s Commanded Holy Days. Questions often arise, however, as to HOW to keep the Sabbath. Are there any principles or passages in the Bible that tell us what kinds of activities are permitted and which are prohibited? Are we told how to apply those passages and concepts practically in specific situations? In this booklet, we will address many of these questions that have perplexed Christians for decades. We will concentrate on God’s command not to do work on the Sabbath; not to pursue our own pleasure; and not to engage in business; and we will discuss whether or not we should eat out in a restaurant on the Sabbath. We will also speak on Church attendance on the Sabbath, as well as proper appearance and conduct during Church services. Finally, we […]

God’s Teachings on Sexual Relationships

To Request a FREE hard copy of this booklet, please write to: contact@eternalgod.org In a world of confusion, there are many personal opinions when it comes to sexual relationships.   But what does the Bible say about, for instance, compulsory celibacy, cohabitation outside marriage, common law marriage, interracial or inter-religious marriage, adultery, separation, divorce and remarriage, homosexuality, polygamy or transgender? Are any of these relationships sinful in God’s eyes? Has God changed His teachings on sexual relationships, or is He the same yesterday, today and forever? Is today’s traditional Christianity in compliance with God’s values on sexual conduct and relationships? If not, what significance do wrong concepts on this vital issue have for us today and in the future?

God’s Teachings on Sexual Relationships

Viewable PDF Printable PDF To Request a FREE hard copy of this booklet, please write to: contact@eternalgod.org Introduction We live in a world of ever-changing relationships, be it among nations, peoples, or individuals, and along with these changes, there is no end to personal opinions as to what constitutes right or wrong actions. Yet out of the abundance of opinions, there is little regard for what God calls sin or what His standards are for happiness and health. Mankind, as a whole, is determined to live in ways that “seem right in his own eyes” (Proverbs 14:12 and 16:25). Although many are not interested in knowing and understanding the Word of God, you, the reader, do not need to be caught up in the prevailing winds of confusion. You can find the answers for right living straight from the Bible—from God Himself—not from personal opinions of those who do not even acknowledge their Creator. Make no mistake, God is not the author of confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33). His answers will give you a clear sense of purpose and direction in your conduct and relationships with others, and your life will be blessed accordingly as you apply His instruction. Yes, the Bible […]

How to Find the True Church of God

To Request a FREE hard copy of this booklet, please write to: contact@eternalgod.org In a deceived world where there are so many churches which all claim to be Christian in belief, how can one identify the TRUE Church of God? How can one PROVE which church is teaching the same doctrines that Christ taught? Do you even know what Christ actually taught? What are the identifying signs of the TRUE Church of God, as revealed in the Bible? Is God’s Church an all-powerful organization, or just a “little flock”? Jesus Christ gave His Church an important commission, especially in these last days: To preach the Gospel of the Kingdom of God, to warn the Nations of pending disaster and to feed the Flock.  How is the Church supposed to carry out this commission correctly?
