The Necessity of Clinging To the Biblical Hope That Justice Is Coming

The Necessity of Clinging To the Biblical Hope That Justice Is Coming

Bible prophecy matters; it’s the key to understanding the day in which we live. We need a true Scripture-based perspective of what lies beyond this life in order to make sense of our journey through it.

Without it, we would struggle to understand how a sound biblical worldview intersects with the tragedies, senseless violence, corruption, and lawlessness that are so rampant in our day.

Only Bible Prophecy Adequately Explains the Miracle of Modern-Day Israel

Only Bible Prophecy Adequately Explains the Miracle of Modern-Day Israel

Most pastors believe that Israel’s current existence has no relevance to Bible prophecy. The popular message is that the Church is now biblical Israel. Modern-day Israel is no different than any other nation with the same challenges and threats to its existence. Really?

The Discovery of Noah's Ark Refutes Today's Scoffers

The Discovery of Noah's Ark Refutes Today's Scoffers

Do you know there’s credible evidence regarding the discovery of Noah’s ark? In 1959, a Turkish army captain and pilot, Ihan Durupinar, noticed what appeared to be the outline of a large ship near Mount Ararat on the eastern edge of modern-day Turkey. His pictures of what appeared to be the shape of a large seagoing vessel, encased in mud, attracted worldwide attention, led to the investigation of the site by experts, and attracted thousands of visitors to the site.

The Promise of the Rapture Guarantees Our Deliverance

The Promise of the Rapture Guarantees Our Deliverance

The promise of the Rapture (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) guarantees that we will not experience this awful time on the earth known as the Day of the Lord. But what is it and why are we so confidence that Jesus’ will take us to glory before God judges the wicked of this world?

Why Most Christians Don't Understand What's Happening In The Middle East

Why Most Christians Don't Understand What's Happening In The Middle East

God’s Word, and in particular Bible prophecy, explains the devil’s rage against Israel as currently manifested through the Iranian leaders. Yet so many believers dismiss prophecy as stale theology, tertiary (of third-rate importance), or irrelevant.

What Does It Mean to Watch for Jesus' Appearing?

What Does It Mean to Watch for Jesus' Appearing?

The Lord’s command for us to “watch” is perhaps the most ignored of all His direct instructions to His followers. I can’t remember hearing a pastor of a local church preach on it although many of them repeatedly stress the necessity of the Great Commission because the Lord Himself commanded us to spread the Gospel to the world.

The War, the Rapture, and Paul’s Last Words

The War, the Rapture, and Paul’s Last Words

As the Apostle Paul looked back on his life, we might have expected him to list his many accomplishments in spreading the Gospel throughout the Roman Empire.

Instead, Paul focused on qualities that enabled him to endure in a ministry beset with a persecutions, hardships, and deadly perils.

Just Like the Days of Noah, People Remain Unaware of What's Coming

Just Like the Days of Noah, People Remain Unaware of What's Coming

Jesus warned that such blindness would characterize humanity before His return. In Matthew 24:37-39, He compared the days of Noah to a future time when people would be unaware of the approach of another time of worldwide judgment, that of the seven-year Tribulation.

How Bible Prophecy Explains the World’s Bizarre Interference With Israel’s Sovereignty

How Bible Prophecy Explains the World’s Bizarre Interference With Israel’s Sovereignty

Since it’s rebirth as a nation in 1948, Israel has been a key to understanding Bible prophecy. The growing determination of many nations to recognize a Palestinian state along with dividing the land of Israel and Jerusalem via a two-state solution yet again confirms the central role of the Jewish state in what Scripture says about the last days.

Invitation to a Lavish Feast

Invitation to a Lavish Feast

The presence of so many scoffers of our “blessed hope” makes it imperative that we understand why we believe what we do about our anticipation of Jesus’ imminent appearing. I wrote the book to provide a solid Biblical foundation for glorious expectation.

Invitation to a Lavish Feast

Invitation to a Lavish Feast

The dearth of sound biblical teaching on Bible prophecy has created a void that false teachers have filled with a wide assortment of wayward beliefs regarding the church, Jesus’ appearing, the Second Coming, and Israel. As a result, most believers cannot discern the season in which we live and place their future expectations on temporal outcomes rather than eternal realities.

In Invitation to a Lavish Feast, I seek to provide the saints with a firm foundation for their hope in Jesus’ imminent appearing.

What’s Behind Paula White’s Rise to Power?

What’s Behind Paula White’s Rise to Power?

One has to wonder, however, about the influence of a White House faith advisor who rejects what the Bible says about the future of the Jewish people, the Land that God gave to them, and Jerusalem.

Lawlessness Is Setting the Stage for Antichrist's Empire

Lawlessness Is Setting the Stage for Antichrist's Empire

Although we see the manifestation of all these things today, it’s but a foretaste of what lies ahead for the world after the Lord removes His Church from the world and with it, the restraining force of the Holy Spirit. Given what I see today, I shudder to think how exponentially worse life will become.

God's Covenant with Israel by Josh Davis

God's Covenant with Israel by Josh Davis

Replacement theology teaches that the church has replaced Israel in God’s prophetic and redemptive plan. If this theology is correct, the negative implications are massive and negatively impact our security in Christ.

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.

Our Priceless Inheritance

Our Priceless Inheritance

Do you know that as believers, we will someday receive an inheritance that far exceeds any earthly fortune not only in value, but also in longevity? This inheritance belongs to us simply because of who we are in Christ; It's already ours even though we don't already possess it.

The Unfolding Drama of the Last Days

The Unfolding Drama of the Last Days

When I was in college fifty years ago, I believed the Rapture could happen at any moment. Since then, like the cutting away of layers of an onion, we have seen an unfolding of world events that have not only confirmed the nearness of the Tribulation and thus to the Rapture, but have also enabled us to better understand the fulfillment of events during the Tribulation.

Combining the Rapture and the Second Coming Is Biblically Impossible

Combining the Rapture and the Second Coming Is Biblically Impossible

Do you realize that as New Testament saints, we will take part in the most astonishing and magnificent event that the world will ever see?

Revelation 19 begins with thunderous praise for our Savior followed by our celebration with Him at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Then, “arrayed in fine linen, white and pure,” we will follow Jesus back to earth riding on white horses (Revelation 19:11-16) .
