How do we know what the truth is and do we believe in it? What separates us from every other religion out there? What are we to do with the knowledge that has been given to us to bring forth results?

What Is the Mark of the Beast?
In this second installment of our three-part series on biblical prophecy, we will show that the Bible and history reveal the identity of the famous mark of the beast. This mark is associated with the beast in Revelation 13:1-10, which is a political and military power. It collaborates with a religious power, which is described as a second beast in Revelation 13:11, having two horns like a lamb and speaking like a dragon. In what way will this religious power create an image, which will cause all to receive the mark of the beast? Why will no one be able to buy or sell who does not have the mark of the beast? What is the difference between the mark of the beast and the sign of God, which identifies true Christians?
Corruption & Destruction
As people grew into cities, nations, and civilizations, they had a tendency to become corrupt. The story line plays out time and again. They grow too wise in their own opinion and then wicked in their thoughts and deeds, so much so that there is nothing left but for them to be destroyed. What lessons can we learn from these tragedies in the Bible? How can we make sure we are not falling into the same mistakes and traps?
Change
The world is experiencing a lot of change: change in the environment, in the way we live, and with society. Trust in God and faith in His laws are not a factor anymore as attempts to make this world we live in are becoming “more acceptable” in the eyes of man. God makes it clear what He prohibits and how we can be saved, before it’s too late.
666–The Number of the Beast
In this first installment of our three-part series on biblical prophecy, we are discussing the famous number of the beast’s name, which is mentioned in Revelation 13. Many have tried unsuccessfully to identify the beast and to calculate its number. But who or what is the beast, and why is it described with seven heads and ten horns? Is the beast a kingdom, a human leader, or both? Is its number 666 or 616? Will the end-time beast receive a deadly wound, which will be healed? Could the beast be a woman? Is the beast the Antichrist?
Misguided Perceptions
How do we view the world in light of our spiritually enabled eyesight? For thousands of years Satan has been misguiding mankind with one purpose: to lead us away from God.
Adapt
When the plans that we make meet adversity, what is the best way to handle it? The examples of people’s lives and instructions in the Bible provide the answers.
The Work in Germany
The Bible prophesies that at a time when a short powerful work of preaching the gospel message is being revived, modern Babylon will rise once again in Europe as the final short-lived resurrection of the ancient Holy Roman Empire. We are seeing the beginning of this prophecy being fulfilled in Germany; and Satan is very angry, knowing that his time is short.
Good Fruits
To produce good fruit, one has to apply certain attributes which should produce blessings, if applied correctly.
What is the Church?
Most of us—who claim Christianity as our belief—would say that we are members of the Church of God. In fact, all kinds of people claim membership in a church—saying that they are true followers of Jesus Christ and God and fully believing they have God’s blessings. But with so many divergent views about what the Church of God represents, is that really possible? Does the Bible, the inspired Word of God, back them up? And for us, is there irrefutable proof that we have it right?
