Deceiving the WorldDeceiving the World With the Last Enemy

"And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him." Revelation 12:9.
"The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death." 1 Corinthians 15:26.
     "The purpose of this study is to show how Satan will use the last enemy-DEATH-to deceive the world. The Apostle Paul informs us that death will be the final enemy destroyed. What a glorious promise! The day is coming when there will be no more death or dying. Eternal life, free of sickness, pain and suffering, will be the reward of the faithful. Between now and then, however, we must face that cold enemy at some point, save for those who will be translated without seeing death. Even for those fortunate saints, death will surely come knocking on the doors of friends and loved ones. Satan will use that mysterious enemy to deceive all who are ignorant of his devices."

Perfecting HolinessPerfecting Holiness in the Fear of God

"Having therefore these promises dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God." 2 Corinthians 7:1.
     Is there a possibility that you have been living beneath your Christian potential? In this booklet, Allen discusses the high calling of the believer in Christ, and the wonderful promises lavishly supplied to the serious Christian. Find out what lessons may be discovered from a tethered elephant. Here is just a taste of the richness of what Jesus offers. "The bottom line is this: 'Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.' Matthew 5:6. That is a promise you can rely on! If you truly seek righteousness and desire to reach the full stature of Christ Jesus, He will perform that work of righteousness and sanctification in you. You shall be filled! If you do not hunger and thirst for such a life, you will not attain it. Pray for that appetite if you do not have such now, and cultivate a taste for nutritious spiritual food. 'O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in Him.' Psalm 34:8. Seek the Lord and behold Him, for by beholding Him, you can become like Him. 'But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.' II Corinthians 3:18."

Seventy WeeksJerusalem's Seventy Weeks

"Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy." Daniel 9:24.
     Have you ever wondered about the Second Coming of Christ? Are you confused by the various teachings today on the subject of the rapture-whether it will take place before the tribulation (pre-trib), during the tribulation (mid-trib), or after the tribulation (post-trib)? A proper understanding of Daniel 9:24-27 will clarify the mystery. You can discover in the pages of this booklet truths that have been largely ignored or forgotten by the Protestant world. It is an eye-opener! Here is an excerpt:
     "The world is watching closely at the events taking place in the Middle East. There have been wars and rumors of war in that area since Jesus uttered those sad words, 'Your house is left unto you desolate.' Although many attempts have been made over the centuries to re-establish Jerusalem with its temple services, the result has always been failure. Will they succeed now?"

Sins as ScarletThough Your Sins Be As Scarlet

"Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." Isaiah 1:18
     In this booklet, Allen discusses the plan of salvation--the "Good News" about Jesus Christ and what He desires to do for every repentant sinner. Even if you have professed to be a Christian for years, you may find this booklet both challenging and refreshing. Here is an example of the things you will discover: "'For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from the body of this death?' Romans 7:22-24.
     "Have you ever felt that way? You know what is right, but the performance of the right is so difficult. Temptations seem to have an overmastering pull on you at times. Once in a while you may pull up your bootstraps, grit your teeth, and walk away from evil. Remember though, just one sin-one failure-and you are under condemnation and ready for the fire. Paul called this fallen flesh nature 'the body of this death.'
     "To better grasp the significance of that phrase we must go back in time to Rome in Paul's day. A man who was found guilty of murder was sentenced to carry the corpse of the one he had slain upon his back. Arm to arm, back to back, the two were strapped together until the decaying flesh would destroy the guilty party. Can you imagine the stench, the contempt, and the pain that the convicted murderer had to endure? This is how we should look upon our old sinful nature. When we see it that way, we too will cry out, 'Who shall deliver me from the body of this death?' How can we free ourselves from the sentence of death and the stench of sin? The answer comes in Paul's next words. 'I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord.' Jesus is the only way of escape."

Victory over BeastVictory Over the Beast

"And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God." Revelation 15:2.
     In order to make sense of the Bible prophecies concerning the dreaded "mark of the beast," it is essential to identify the beast itself. Using the Bible to interpret itself, Allen reveals the beast, his image, and his mark.
     "Those who went before us are to be appreciated. They uncovered and passed down many wonderful truths which had been hidden during the 'dark ages.' Let us learn from them, but not at the expense of neglecting the Word of God. And let us not be as those presumptuous ones who say, 'It is not essential that I know who the antichrist is as long as I believe and trust in Jesus.' Dear reader, the Lord went to great lengths to warn us of this beast that will appear with 'all power and signs and lying wonders,' who will, if possible 'deceive the very elect' (II Thessalonians 2:9, Matthew 24:24). Surely, this is no insignificant matter! Let us now take up the Sword of the Spirit, which is also a light for our path, and begin tracking the beast."
