A Tale of Two Churches: Understanding the Differences

A Tale of Two Churches: Understanding the Differences

Revelation 3:7-22 describes churches in the towns of Philadelphia and Laodicea. In Jesus’ letters to them, we discover aspects of each that help us understand the differences between these assemblies of believers today.

Persevering in a Dangerous World

Persevering in a Dangerous World

We live in a time like no other because so very few people are paying attention to the deadly crises that loom on our horizon. We live in biblical times because what we see worldwide is precisely what God's Word says the world look like just before the start of the seven-year Tribulation.

Waiting for Jesus' Appearing Amid the Rampant Evil of Our Day

Waiting for Jesus' Appearing Amid the Rampant Evil of Our Day

As we wait for Jesus’ appearing, our hearts often grow weary amid the rampant evil of our day and the hardships we encounter. Our cry often becomes one of “how much longer, O Lord?”

If you feel overwhelmed with life and long for our Savior to appear and intervene in our world, I am writing especially for you.

Israel’s Future Restoration Validates Our Hope as New Testament Saints

Israel’s Future Restoration Validates Our Hope as New Testament Saints

Both Israel’s future and our security as New Testament Saints rest upon both God’s promises and character. That’s why I always begin my defense of the pre-Tribulation Rapture with the biblical teaching regarding the Lord’s future restoration of Israel.

The Anchor Of Our Blessed Hope Holds Amid Wicked and Lawless Times

The Anchor Of Our Blessed Hope Holds Amid Wicked and Lawless Times

As the walls of the world close in on us and threaten our wellbeing, freedoms, and perhaps even our lives in the days ahead, we know that our hope rests in the “steadfast anchor of our soul,” namely Jesus and our anticipation of His soon return for us.

The Magnificent Glory That Awaits Us in Eternity

The Magnificent Glory That Awaits Us in Eternity

We use the word “glory” to refer to many aspects of our walk with the Lord. In a real sense, glorify His name when praise Him and sing worship songs. We see a foretaste of God’s glory in beautiful sunsets, the grandeur of snowcapped mountain tops, and in many ways through the beauty and wonder of nature.

We will not see the full display of Jesus’ glory, however, until He appears to take us up to heaven!

Globalism, War, Economic Turmoil, Devaluing Human Life — The Day Of The Lord Is Looming

Globalism, War, Economic Turmoil, Devaluing Human Life — The Day Of The Lord Is Looming

I’m still convinced that Jesus is coming for us soon.

The end of September didn’t put an end to the multitude of signs telling us that the seven-year Tribulation is ever so close, even right on our doorstep.

Amid Today's Ridicule of Our Blessed Hope, Dare To Be An Enoch

Amid Today's Ridicule of Our Blessed Hope, Dare To Be An Enoch

Enoch lived 365 years before God took him away from the earth. From all that we know about the antediluvian world, that’s a long time to walk faithfully with the Lord.

Like Enoch, we must persevere amid today's ridicule of our hope, such as the article CNN mocking the Rapture, as we eagerly await our “blessed hope.”

Jesus Is the Only Path to Eternal Life

Jesus Is the Only Path to Eternal Life

Eternal life resides in Jesus and in Him alone. No one else! This is true now and will also be the case after Jesus removes His true church from the earth.

In John 14:6, Jesus said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Depopulation: The Sign that Tells us Jesus' Appearing Is At Hand

Depopulation: The Sign that Tells us Jesus' Appearing Is At Hand

On the one hand, the depopulation effort of the globalists is frightening.

On the other hand, it opens our eyes to what’s happening around us and reminds us that God is sovereignly directing history to accomplish His purpose in preparing the world, and Israel, for Jesus’ upcoming thousand-year reign on the earth.

Although Popular, It's a Dangerous View of the End Times

Although Popular, It's a Dangerous View of the End Times

We believe that Israel’s miraculous reappearance as a nation and the Lord’s supernatural defense of this country mark the beginning of His fulfillment of promises that He made to Israel through the Old Testament prophets.

We most assuredly live in biblical times!

Salvation In No Other Name

Salvation In No Other Name

What do people need the most? The answer remains the same as it’s always been: A clear understanding of the Gospel. By this I mean that people need Jesus, not the one that so many today create in their mind but but the One revealed on the pages of Scripture.

Why Is a Biblically Sound View of Eternity so Essential?

Why Is a Biblically Sound View of Eternity so Essential?

We need a true Bible-based perspective of our future beyond this life in order to understand our journey through it. Without such a Scripture-based forward look to the paradise that awaits us, we often err by making this life our destination and eternity but an afterthought.

Don’t Be Deceived: The Rapture Happens First

Don’t Be Deceived: The Rapture Happens First

In recent years, however, the Greek Word apostasia, translated “falling away” in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, has received heightened scrutiny with many regarding this as a reference to the Rapture.

Can we justify interpreting the word as a physical departure such as would point to Jesus’ appearing to take us back to heaven? I believe we can.

Don’t Mess With the Book of Revelation

Don’t Mess With the Book of Revelation

Revelation begins with these words: “The revelation of Jesus Christ.” The book is all about Jesus’ magnificence and power. From beginning to end, Revelation glorifies our Lord Jesus Christ.

Revelation is more relevant than ever before as we watch a great many of its prophecies came into sharper focus.

3 Climate Myths Spread by the Globalists

3 Climate Myths Spread by the Globalists

The promotion of draconian measures to reduce our dependency on fuel and natural gas is just one way that the globalists hope to achieve the power they crave.

In this post, I list three popular climate myths that the globalists use to further their deadly agenda. These myths lie behind the green measures in the U.S. Inflation Reduction act.

Is the “Green” Science Behind the Inflation Reduction Act Valid?

Is the “Green” Science Behind the Inflation Reduction Act Valid?

The “green” provisions of the “Inflation Reduction Act of 2022” assume that CO2 emissions from “fossil” fuels are cause for great alarm and hence the call for a massive amount of new spending to address the emergency.

Is the “green” science upon which the act is based valid? No, it’s not.

3 Ways Climate Alarmists Reject Biblical Truths

3 Ways Climate Alarmists Reject Biblical Truths

It's because of the current push across the world to demonize the use of fossil fuels as well as those of us who do not believe the climate alarmists that I have decided to write a series of articles in response. In this first post, I present a biblical view of the environment in response to those that claims we are the deniers of reality.

3 Dangers of Illuminating Bible Prophecy With One's Own Light

3 Dangers of Illuminating Bible Prophecy With One's Own Light

If you were to ask me why I believe what I do about Jesus’ imminent appearing and His future reign over a gloriously restored Israel, I would reply that the words of Scripture are my source of confidence. I stand on its promises.

Does It Seem as Though We Live in a Twilight Zone?

Does It Seem as Though We Live in a Twilight Zone?

Walking into many churches today is like entering a Twilight Zone where life is all good and we listen to five-year plans for the future of the church. The message from the pulpit represents a total disconnect with what's happening throughout the world.
