The New Jerusalem
February 19, 2026
The following is excerpted from The Way of Life Commentary Series, Revelation, available from www.wayoflife.org -
The New Jerusalem (Revelation 21:2 - 22:5)
The focus of these chapters is the New Jerusalem, which is the dwelling place of the saints of all ages, but which is particularly associated with the bride of Christ.
This is the heavenly city that all of the saints of old looked for (Heb. 11:13-16).
This is the “city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God” (Heb. 11:9-10). At the call of God, Abraham left Ur of the Chaldees. It was a great city, but it had no foundations. When it was re-discovered in the last half of the 19th century and excavated by Leonard Woolley, only pathetic ruins remained.
This is the fulfillment of God’s glorious eternal plan, the plan that He had before the world was made, the plan for which He made the world, and the plan toward which He has carried the world. “That in the dispensation of the fulness of times.. see full report

In Essentials Unity
February 18, 2026
The evangelical philosophy is often stated by the dictum, “IN ESSENTIALS UNITY; IN NON-ESSENTIALS LIBERTY; IN ALL THINGS CHARITY.”
Though commonly attributed to Augustine, it was apparently first stated by the 17th-century Lutheran Rupertus Meldenius (a.k.a. Peter Meiderlin).
It became the rallying cry of the Moravians, who had a wonderful missionary zeal but retained Romanist heresies such as infant baptism and an ordained priesthood and who promoted unity above the absolute truth of God’s Word for the purpose of “revival.”
The “non-essentials liberty” principle was adopted by the fundamentalist movement of the 20th century. Fundamentalism focused on a unity built around “the fundamentals of the faith” while downplaying “minor issues.” The pragmatic objective was to create the largest possible united front against theological modernism and.. see full report

Hope Maketh Not Ashamed
February 17, 2026
The following is excerpted from The Way of Life Commentary Series, Romans, available from the Books section of www.wayoflife.org -
“And hope maketh not ashamed...” (Romans 5:5).
“Ashamed” is kataischúno, “from kata, denoting ill, and aischúno, to shame, to confound, dishonor, disgrace” (Complete Word Study Bible). It is “to frustrate, disappoint” (Mounce). It is translated “confound” (1 Co. 1:27), “dishonor” (1 Co. 11:4, 5), and “shame” (1 Co. 11:22).
No individual who trusts in God through Jesus Christ will be ashamed or confounded or disappointed or disgraced.
Paul, who experienced great trouble, said, ‘For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed.. see full report

Obey Them That Have the Rule Over You
February 12, 2026
Romans 13:1-7 - “Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.

Scholarolatry and Ignorantolatry
February 10, 2026 (first published July 24, 1996)
Many who fancy themselves “intellectuals,” look down upon a man who does not have a list of letters after his name, implying that he is unlearned and ignorant because he does not fit the mold of what they have decided a scholar must be. Some of the letters I receive reflect this attitude.
Princeton-educated David Otis Fuller called this phenomenon “scholarolatry.”.. see full report

SCIENTISTS RESET DOOMSDAY CLOCK (Friday Church News Notes, February 6, 2026, www.wayoflife.org fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-4143) - In January, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists set their Doomsday Clock forward to 85 seconds before midnight to reflect their concern over manmade climate change, nuclear proliferation, biotechnology risks, and artificial intelligence. The Doomsday Clock, which was created in 1947, is an exercise in futility created by evolutionary wackos. It was originally set to seven minutes before midnight.

Priscilla
February 5, 2026
The following is from Woman and Her Service for God, available in the Books and Courses sections of www.wayoflife.org -
Priscilla (meaning worthy or venerable) was a married woman who served Christ with her husband, Aquila (Ro. 16:3-5). Priscilla is an affectionate diminutive of Prisca (2 Ti. 4:19).
Aquila was a Jew, but we aren’t told whether or not Priscilla was a Jew (Ac. 18:2). Her name was used by other Roman women.
Priscilla and Aquila were believers (“in Christ Jesus,” Ro. 16:3). Probably they were led to Christ by Paul.
Priscilla and Aquila were forced to leave Rome by Claudius Caesar (Ac. 18:1-3).

Bible Critics Tampering With the Evidence for Joshua and Judges
February 4, 2026
The following is excerpted from Bill Cooper’s The Authenticity of the Book of Judges (2015).
Bill Cooper (1947-2021) was a prolific writer and speaker, with a gift of cutting through the fog of biblical criticism to defend the infallible, plenary, verbal inspiration of Scripture, the six-day creation, and the Masoretic Hebrew and Received Greek texts. He was a council member of the Creation Science Movement and the Tyndale Society and an adjunct professor for the Institute for Creation Research’s Master Faculty. His most popular book is After the Flood which gives evidence for the historicity of Genesis 10 based on ancient, little known British and European genealogies. He published a series of books entitled “The Authenticity,” which included The Authenticity of the Book of Genesis, Joshua, Judges, Esther, Daniel, Jonah, the Gospels, Acts, the Epistles, and Revelation. In The Forging of Codex Sinaiticus, Cooper gave evidence to support his thesis that Sinaiticus is a.. see full report
