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.
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.
Jesus’ resurrection is the foundation of our faith. We know what we believe is true because we serve a risen Savior.
In this post, I touch on many things we know because of Jesus’ empty tomb. We know that someday we will possess an incorruptible and immortal body because Jesus rose from the dead with a glorified body.
Scripture is remarkably clear about this: the time leading up to the seven-year Tribulation, as well as the period itself, will be marked by overwhelming and widespread deception.
As we look around us, it’s unmistakable that this has reached epidemic levels, which signifies that we live in the shadow of the coming seven-year Tribulation.
I understand why so many question Jesus’ soon return given the fact that it’s been two thousand years since He promised to return.
In spite of the long wait, I’m convinced that Jesus’ appearing is imminent because of the myriad of signs telling us that the Tribulation period is right on our doorstep.
It’s the particulars of our glorious future that provide us with a hopeful and biblical context into which we can place the storms and tragic circumstances that come our way and persevere when during the dark times in which we live.
It’s a glorious adventure that starts with the Rapture of the church.
Many regard talk of threats to their wellbeing as conspiracy theories, outcomes they see as so far out of the ordinary that they cannot possibly be true. But what if they are more than just annoying musings of doomsday purveyors?
This article asks you to make the call: Are they conspiracy theories or spoiler alerts of what lies ahead in the future?
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.
What makes me a misfit in many churches is that I have a different perspective of what it means to fulfill the Great Commission.
What’s missing, in my opinion, is a biblical understanding of all that it means to “make disciples.” Thus, the teaching aspect of Matthew 28:19-20 receives little, if any, consideration.
Make no mistake, the Supreme Court ruling on June 24, 2022, overturning Roe v. Ware is a huge victory for life, and I’m overjoyed with the decision. It will possibly spare hundreds of thousands lives from a cruel and inhumane death.
However, I’m not overly optimistic because the ruling does not brighten the dark foreboding clouds on our horizon.
At critical times in his life, Esau made terrible decisions because he could not see beyond the moment. He lived for the immediate gratification of his desires without any regard for the consequences, for the future, or for eternity.
Esau’s life alerts us to the dangers of living solely for the temporal world, for things we can see versus those things that are eternal (2 Cor. 4:17-18).
Early in the twentieth century, belief in the Rapture became a mainstay at Bible-believing churches in America and throughout the world. Unfortunately, much has changed during the past twenty-five years. The word “Rapture” has become taboo in many churches, even in those that claim to believe in the inspiration and inerrancy of Scripture.
There’s good news about eternity in the Gospel message. Of course, the saving message of the cross assures us as believers of the forgiveness of all our sins and empowers us to walk with the Savior in this life. Its saving message also contains great news about forever that enables us to put the the lawlessness, violence, and wickedness of our world into a proper context.
