The Ultimate Triumph

In our March–April 2026 issue, we showed how Jesus Christ’s suffering and death were not a tragic defeat but a divinely planned victory revealing Him as the true King. We also focused on His ongoing work—redeeming, transforming and preparing believers to share in His coming reign.

I was not going to renew my subscription because I get so many magazines such as yours but I want you to know that after reading “The Ultimate Triumph” by Tom Robinson, I just had to renew. What an elucidation! I had no idea of the correlations that existed as laid out in this article. What an eye-opener! As I was reading the #10 section, I was reminded of how His disciples asked Him to grant them the right and left positions beside Him and His reply, not just that they didn’t understand what they were asking, and that it wasn’t His to grant, but that it shall not be so among them! (Mark 10:43) which was not mentioned in the article and so served as a reminder to go look it up! I love it when that happens, so kudos to Mr. Robinson and to the publishers and followers of the Messiah. -- From the Internet

I wanted to express my greatest appreciation for [“The Ultimate Triumph”]. I had never before seen the deep parallel between the “Via Crucis” and the emperor’s triumphal procession ceremony. I am Italian and very aware of the great influence the Imperial cult had on early Christianity; this article is valuably contributing to my Passover preparation, and I enthusiastically wanted to thank Mr. Robinson and the entire editorial team for the fine work. When I’m back in Rome, I will surely walk that route with different eyes thanks to you. -- Reader from Italy

I am a Beyond Today subscriber and enjoy your content because it is practical and to the point. However, some content doesn’t go far enough to indicate that the choices people make start with whose spirit has ownership of the mind, then come the physical consequences based on the choice that the person makes, whether good or bad. There should be more emphasis on the spiritual side of Scripture, being that God’s laws are spiritual. -- From the Internet

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. Choices do have consequences, and it is our aim to help people make decisions based on scriptural guidance.

I read with trepidation and prejudice the article titled “Stop, in the Name of God,” by Tom Robinson, regarding the late Charlie Kirk’s posthumously published book. I’m a newbie, and it’s taken several years to be able to somewhat discern what’s in line with God’s Word and what is made up by man. Simply put and somewhat unfairly, I’m anti-Charlie Kirk, but Tom eloquently points out the pros and cons of the book and shows readers what is Scripture-aligned and what is manmade regulation. Thank you, Tom, for pointing out the gray areas I’d been walking in through my journey. -- From the Internet

Readers looking for guidance

I started getting your booklets about 2 months ago and was raised Christian, or so I thought. Now I learn I’m not properly observing the Holy Days, including the weekly Sabbath. I am 54 years old and now I am questioning if I am even saved and going to heaven. Please help. -- From the Internet

Thank you for reaching out. Discovering biblical truths you were previously unaware of can be overwhelming, especially when they challenge lifelong beliefs. Thankfully, God is compassionate, long-suffering and merciful toward us as we seek His guidance. Understanding these truths is a process, and it is a blessing to grow in that understanding now. We encourage you to continue seeking God through prayer and Bible study. Our 12-lesson Bible study course and library of Bible study aids can help you continue building a stronger foundation in God’s Word.

I am writing to ask if you could please send me a brochure about the holy feasts of God. That brochure, which explains the feasts in detail, is very interesting to me. You may also send me any other brochures. I am a faithful follower of your church and send many blessings to all of you. -- Reader from Chile
