Rapture Ramifications

Rapture Ramifications

The events of the past couple weeks have definite implications regarding the nearness of the Rapture. However, they may be different than what you might expect.

Refuting the Great Lie About Our "Blessed Hope"

Refuting the Great Lie About Our "Blessed Hope"

Though it’s been debunked countless times, a great many saints remain convinced that the doctrine of the pre-Tribulation Rapture originated with John Darby. Although they insist that no one believed in such a thing before him, it’s simply not true.

Let me be clear: If anyone tells you that this teaching originated with John Darby, they are either purposely misleading you or have themselves been the victim of someone deceiving them about its origin.

In A World Obsessed With Jerusalem, How Can You Not See Bible Prophecy Unfolding?

In A World Obsessed With Jerusalem, How Can You Not See Bible Prophecy Unfolding?

The group, which calls itself the Global Alliance, will meet again in Brussels on November 11, 2024, and then soon after on the 28th with the goal of putting in place a seven-to-ten-year peace agreement that would divide the Land and the city of Jerusalem via a two-state solution.

This points to the future fulfillment of at least three specific Bible prophecies that are in some way preparing for the antichrist’s arrival on the world scene.

Unsustainable

Unsustainable

If there’s one word that tells me that we don’t have much longer to wait for the Lord’s intervention in the world, it’s “unsustainable.” The current state of our world, already on the edge, is most certainly unsustainable.

Ancient Foes Impacting Today's World Events, and Your Future

The players are different. The technology appears to be far advanced from anything we have seen in just the past twenty-five years. Yet there is a sameness about today’s headlines that pertain to Israel. It’s about ancient foes.

What Will It Take for the Church to Wake Up?

What Will It Take for the Church to Wake Up?

The complacency of those outside of Christ is what I might expect given the vast deception and gaslighting that floods the airwaves. Sadly, most believers also live in a similar state of unawareness concerning the perils that threaten their future wellbeing.

What will it take for people to wake up? What will it take for the church to wake up?

Can God Change His Mind About Israel? Or About Us?

Can God Change His Mind About Israel? Or About Us?

Satan’s tactics have not changed; he still seeks to inject insecurity into the final outcome of our faith, which makes it depend on our continuing love for the Lord rather than His unfailing love for us.

The Political And Moral Supports Of Society Are Falling Into Ruins

The Political And Moral Supports Of Society Are Falling Into Ruins

Long ago, David asked a question that’s on the minds of many believers today. “If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” (Psalm 11:3). In other words, what do we do as the political and moral supports of society fall to ruins around us?

Why Do So Many Believers Choose to Be Oblivious to the Perils of Our World?

Why Do So Many Believers Choose to Be Oblivious to the Perils of Our World?

The video was unforgettable. A woman on a train remained focused on her smartphone despite the chaos outside happening her window. As she smiled at the images in her phone, only a pane of glass separates her from widespread destruction and fires along the path of the train.

Don’t Miss the Blessing of Watching Bible Prophecy Come To Fruition

Don’t Miss the Blessing of Watching Bible Prophecy Come To Fruition

Living in the last days has its challenges, to be sure. We see wickedness, lawlessness, and deception increasing at an exponential clip. As violence erupts all around us, I pray daily for the safety of our children and their spouses as well as for all our grandchildren.

On the other hand, we live at a time like no other. I recently read Matthew chapters 12 and 13 and as I did, a coupe verses reminded me of the wonder of being alive at such a time as this.

As Questions Swirl, God’s Sovereignty Stills Our Troubled Minds

As Questions Swirl, God’s Sovereignty Stills Our Troubled Minds

The sound of rain soothes my soul. This was particularly true this past Sunday morning as I sat in my office rehearsing the events of the previous evening. I knew it was likely someone might jeopardize the life of President Trump, but it shocked me to see it happen.

Suddenly - Everything Will Change

Suddenly - Everything Will Change

The closer we get to the start of the Day of the Lord, the more we understand how the Rapture will serve as a sudden catalyst to jumpstart many of the events we read about in the book of Revelation.

The Most Neglected Biblical Truth in Today's Churches

The Most Neglected Biblical Truth in Today's Churches

I have heard many presentations of the Gospel where the pastor never said the words “eternal life,” or if he did, he mentioned it as an afterthought or as part of John 3:16 during his closing prayer. Why do so many pastors refuse to mention the biblically sound promise that we will live forever in imperishable bodies like that of our Lord Jesus

We May Face Mockery, But Jesus Will Reward Our Watchfulness

We May Face Mockery, But Jesus Will Reward Our Watchfulness

What is the most ridiculed biblical belief of our day? Is it not our expectation of Jesus’ imminent appearing to take us home to Heaven? Sadly, the mocking of our “blessed hope” comes primarily from fellow believers.

Back in October 1962, I sensed the fear that gripped the U.S. because of the threat posed by the presence of Russian missiles in Cuba. Today, the situation is far more terrifying; because we are significantly closer to a nuclear conflict than in the last century. For most people, however, a dreamlike aura persists despite the imminent perils.

Jesus’ Soon Appearing Versus the Normalcy Bubble

Jesus’ Soon Appearing Versus the Normalcy Bubble

Most people live in a “bubble of normalcy” where they feel secure because of exaggerated and unrealistic hopes of either a return to normalcy or of their current lifestyle continuing indefinitely into the future unhindered by the perils around them. They sleep with no fear that their bubble might burst in the near future.

How Much Longer Can It Be?

How Much Longer Can It Be?

Just like a monkey about to hit a lion with a stick, the globalists are provoking dangerous beasts throughout the world knowing that their actions will not end well for a great many people. What’s different is that they will initially prosper from the anarchy they cause.

Jesus’ Preeminence Verifies Our Hope in His Soon Appearing

Jesus’ Preeminence Verifies Our Hope in His Soon Appearing

Colossians 1:15-20 doesn’t predict what’s going to happen next or reveal what lies ahead for this world. However, the descriptions of our Savior in these verses verify all that I believe about a pre-Tribulation Rapture, a literal seven-year Tribulation, and Jesus’ thousand-year reign over the nations.
