Ray Bentley

Today, pastor Ray Bentley reminds us God is timeless. He's in the future. He's in the present. Even in the past. How could God be in the past? Every time you look up at the stars, you're looking at the past. The light you are seeing from those beautiful, twinkling little stars is from a long time ago. It was a long time ago.

God is a verbal God. He is not someone merely to be studied, but he is someone to be heard, a living voice. Today, Pastor Ray Bentley relates that to the Book of Revelation. It is to be read physically with a human voice by the various pastors in the churches, and then the congregation is to hear the voice of their shepherd reading out loud.

Coming up today, pastor Ray Bentley helps us appreciate the dramatic symbolism of the Book of Revelation. John could have written in the last days. There will be a dictator called the Antichrist who will rule over the world and the end of days. Instead, what is John actually writing? He says there will be this world governing empire that will be ruled by a beast.

Today, pastor Ray Bentley launches a revealing look at the last book in the Bible. I like to look at revelation as this big door and each one of us can get up to the keyhole and look in. And when you look through that keyhole, you look into heaven itself, and the glory and the splendor of all that's happened in the midst of all of that is the glorified, eternal picture of Jesus Christ spread.

Pastor Ray Bentley takes us to the big truth in the small book of Jude. God is committed to you, God, and all of his sovereign power is committed that you will make it and be in heaven, and that you'll be washed and cleansed and transformed, and bear the nature and the character of His Son, Jesus Christ. Putting it another way, he, God, is able to bring out the treasure within you.

Today, pastor Ray Bentley addresses the skeptics who say the Bible is anything less than the timeless truth of the Word of God. I want to assure you that the Christian life is not something that we have made up. This is not something that we have manufactured. It is something that we have received. Faith. Our faith. Christian faith is not someone's personal opinion.

Coming up today on Maranatha radio. Pastor Ray Bentley points out the importance of staying on fire for the Lord. Now, listen, I know that we're living in some strange times. We're living in a very prophetic hour. Now is the time not to hide our light. Now is the hour and the moment. To let our light so shine. That they may see.

Pastor Ray Bentley says. Be on the lookout for those who look to improve God's Word. Every once in a while, there's some new. Let's just use the word guru who says, I've got something that's never been discovered before. I have a new truth. Well, as I have said before, let me say it again. If it's new, it's not true.

Pastor Ray Bentley on the fall of a third of the angels of Heaven. These were angels who saw God not even in the earthly form of the cloud and pillar, but they saw the glory of God every day and every night. Heaven was their dwelling place, and yet they still rebelled. And this very moment, Jude says, and chains waiting for the day of their final judgment spread.

Today, pastor Ray Bentley points out the diligent efforts of our spiritual forefathers. There were many who were already in the early days of the church. Here's the half brother of our Lord Jude, who is saying that there are already apostates who have perverted or twisted or chain the gospel. And the reason that so dangerous is if you miss, that, you can miss salvation spreading.
