Many recognize the book of Revelation reveals that at some point in time the antichrist will be able to: Track and control all financial transactions, and That NO MAN will be able to buy or sell anything unless he has the mark of the beast. . And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, … Continue reading →
What did Jesus declare would happen if the days of tribulation were allowed to continue? For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now–and never to be equaled again. If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. – Matthew 24:2122 What days are Jesus referring to here? Clearly, its a time of distress [tribulation] unlike anything before … Continue reading →
He set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved. – Pslam 104:5 Generations come and generations go, but the earth remains forever. – Ecclesiastes 1:4 He built his sanctuary like the heights, like the earth that he established forever. – Psalm 78:69 The above passages indicate that the physical earth will always exist. Words like ‘remain forever’, ‘established forever’, and ‘never be moved’ would signify permanence. While the physical earth may last forever, the ‘age’ of humans … Continue reading →
Some believe the last seven years of the “age” is known as the Tribulation Period when God will pour out great judgments upon the world because of the sins and wickedness of men.
Continue reading →There is a growing pattern of wickedness and lawlessness dominating our society today that throughout history was found in civilizations in the process of decline. It is a pattern evident in nations that rejected God’s Word as ultimate authority in their lives and is a pattern prevailing in many Americans today. Scripture tells us that… Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. – Matthew 24:12 I believe America’s rejection of Christ’s lordship is the … Continue reading →
Many look to the Olivet Discourse in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 as Jesus’ teaching about the end of days and His return. It can be a difficult teaching to fully understand and its interpretation varies widely. I suppose none of us will truly fully understand until that time comes when the veil is removed and these prophecies are finally fulfilled. My approach to understanding these passages is to take them in the plain sense reading in the … Continue reading →
Our privacy has been invaded by big government and big business tracking and data-basing of our medical records, employment records, education records, driving records, travel records, library records, financial records….etc. Now they want to monitor our religion. Breaching the “Wall of Separation” between Church and State In the aftermath of the Jonestown massacre in 1978 came a congressional investigation of religious “sects,” resulting in the establishment of the principle that there is a legitimate federal interest in the classification of … Continue reading →
Dispensationalists look to the last seven years of the present age known as the Tribulation Period when God will pour out great judgments upon the world because of the sins and wickedness of men. Although not the ultimate judgments, these terrible judgments associated with the Tribulation Period are pictured as seven seals opened (Revelation 6), seven trumpets blown (Revelation 8-9), and seven bowls poured out (Revelation 16) in God’s last effort to reconcile man to God through the grace of … Continue reading →
World changing technological discoveries don’t come along very often, and when they do the full weight of their impact isn’t always felt immediately. Take the automobile, the cell phone, and the internet as modern examples. One of these world changing advancements is standing right in front of us now. Scientists are still in the early stages of grasping it’s full potential but the excitement is palpable. It won’t be long before this medical discovery walks through the door into our … Continue reading →
Did Jesus prophesy that a time of great trouble would occur on the earth just before His return? This passage contained in the Olivet Discourse seems to be one of the more controversial ones within the Church. While it doesn’t directly deal with our salvation or “who” Jesus is, it does nonetheless spark debate among Christians regarding the coming of Christ and the last days. From my research, it wasn’t really all that controversial prior to the 1800’s when John … Continue reading →
Was Jesus ever questioned about the “end of the world” and the sign that would point to His return? Well, yes and no. The Greek word translated “world” in the KJV in Matthew 24:3 is ‘aion’, more accurately translated in other versions meaning “age” – not the physical planet on which we live. He wasn’t talking about the physical “end of the world” and He wasn’t talking about His final coming. Jesus left the temple and was walking away when … Continue reading →
Could the Symbols seen by the Prophet John Indicate the use of Modern Weaponry? John described what he saw in a vision of events that God had revealed to him. It was a mysterious, frightening spectacle for sure. Since this revelation came to John nearly 2000 years ago, it’s understandable that he might not know precisely what he was seeing and was only able to translate what he saw into what he knew at that time. Could it be possible … Continue reading →
Following every contrived “crisis” in America, the response is always the same… to erode more liberties in exchange for the promise that it will never happen again. And the result is, it continues to happen again and again, only American citizens have LESS freedom.
Continue reading →Before jumping to any conclusions, let me explain the above image. It is hyperbole – meant to catch your attention. I am not suggesting that face masks are the mark of the beast. I encourage you to continue reading the article below and I will explain how this image is symbolic of how the mark of the beast may be introduced to a brave new world. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, … Continue reading →
Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved. [Matthew 24:9-13] Reaping What We’ve … Continue reading →
