Antisemitism is on the rise throughout the world, even in Christian circles. Since the Jews have been hated throughout history, at least some of what appears to be an increase is nothing more than hidden feelings finally rising to the surface. As Christians, we should look to God for answers to everything in life. What … Continue reading How Does God Feel About Israel & The Jews

God, Israel, Iran, Russia
As I sit down to write this column, it is 8:30 a.m. in the Eastern United States, 3:30 p.m. in Jerusalem and Moscow, and 4:00 p.m. in Tehran. Iran announced yesterday that the Iranian foreign minister would meet with Russian officials in Moscow today (Monday). Given that it is currently mid-afternoon in Moscow, we must … Continue reading God, Israel, Iran, Russia
Regardless Of Who Wins
This column is sent to newspapers on Monday, usually before noon. Since most receiving papers are weekly publications, published on Wednesday or Thursday, and most daily newspapers that share Preacher's Point usually publish the column sometime over the weekend, nearly everyone will read these words after the results of this year's election are known. This … Continue reading Regardless Of Who Wins
Shaky Ground Made Of Thin Ice
Often, on social media, I will read something to the effect, "Bible prophecy is happening right before our eyes." Well, not really. There is a coming day when the Bible will give a play-by-play of worldwide events. During the seven-year tribulation, people will experience hail and fire mingled with blood, resulting in the loss of … Continue reading Shaky Ground Made Of Thin Ice
Two Wars Are Coming
After last week's Preacher's Point describing the battle of Psalm 83, questions came in about the invasion of Israel in Ezekiel chapter 38. Most correspondence mentioned that they had never heard of the Psalm 83 battle. Prophecy teachers often bring up the Ezekiel invasion in their lectures, sermons, and books. However, any Bible teacher mentioning … Continue reading Two Wars Are Coming
The Fig Tree
Last week's Preacher's Point showed signs indicating the Second Coming of Christ. We left the most significant sign for this week - Israel. In Matthew 24, the disciples ask Jesus, "Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world" (Matthew 24:3)? … Continue reading The Fig Tree
End Times – Really?
Are we in the end times? I reckon the answer may depend more on someone's definition of "end times" than on what is happening in the world. But this column will look at Bible prophecies and current events. In Acts 2, Peter announces the fulfillment of a prophecy from the book of Joel. The prophecy … Continue reading End Times – Really?
Timeline Of The Mark
There may be an underlining thought out there that we are nearing the time when the Antichrist will cause everyone to receive a mark to buy or sell. I bring this up because I usually receive emails asking about something I have recently written. However, I have received multiple emails about this topic in the … Continue reading Timeline Of The Mark
Signs, Signs, And More Signs
If anyone wanted to point to signs of Christ's return, the last two weeks have been a prophecy student's dream. Worldwide pandemic. Earthquakes in Utah, Tennessee, Nevada, and the Carolinas. World economies on the verge of collapse. Locust swarms in Africa. A world toilet paper shortage. Okay, the Bible does not say anything about number … Continue reading Signs, Signs, And More Signs
