What Keeps People from Believing the Words of Scripture?

What Keeps People from Believing the Words of Scripture?

Why do even pastors who claim that the Bible is inerrant go off on tangents that contradict the words of Scripture? I believe there are two key reasons for such unbelief.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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) .

What Are You Waiting For?

What Are You Waiting For?

Our expectation is not only that of meeting Jesus in the air (1 Thessalonians 4:17), but also that of a resurrection body; one that will be a huge upgrade from our weak “flesh and blood” bodies. No matter what we experience in our current aging and disease-prone bodies, we know it’s temporary. And nothing, not even death, can change the fact that when Jesus appears, He will give us immortal bodies.

Evidence that Demands a Verdict

Evidence that Demands a Verdict

Similar to what Josh McDowell wrote in his book, when I place today’s signs of the last days in the scales, they tip the balance overwhelmingly in favor this being the last moments before we as New Testament saints meet the Lord in the air.

The mountain of evidence allows for no other verdict than the one that says we live in the season of Jesus’ appearing.

5 Perils Facing President Trump

5 Perils Facing President Trump

Even with the positive and heartwarming scenes that emerged from Inauguration Day 2025, the US faces a future fraught with danger. The following perils facing the newly elected President are not exhaustive, but they are the ones I consider to be the most daunting.

No Time for Complacency

No Time for Complacency

Unfortunately, today’s prosperity leads many to a state of complacency regarding the Lord’s return, one that causes them to ignore the multitude of signs pointing to the start of the Tribulation.

What Would Jesus Say?

What Would Jesus Say?

If the first nine days of 2025 are any indication of what lies ahead, we are in for a wild ride. It was popular at the start of this century to ask, "What would Jesus do?" As we view pictures of the devastation left by the fires in Southern California, perhaps it might better to ask, "What would Jesus say?" about our day.

The Rapture: Wildcard for 2025

The Rapture: Wildcard for 2025

With the dawning of 2025, is there any cause for us to be less watchful than we were a year ago? No, I believe it’s rather a time for increased optimism. Of course, it would be more than a little foolish to predict that the Rapture will happen in the next twelve months. However, it would be equally so to say it couldn’t happen at any moment.

The Biblical Necessity of the Seven-Year Tribulation

The Biblical Necessity of the Seven-Year Tribulation

Two recent events have pushed the world closer to the fulfillment of Daniel's seventieth week (Daniel 9:27). This seven-year period begins with the antichrist establishing a peace agreement with Israel, which he will break at its midpoint by defiling the Jewish temple in Jerusalem.

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.

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.

Perilous Times . . . In the Church

Perilous Times . . . In the Church

In 2 Timothy 3:1-5, Paul depicts the rebellious nature of people would mark the “perilous times” of the last days. We certainly see these attributes everywhere we look in our world. Sadly, however, they also exist among professing Christians, even among many who are truly born again.
