The End Never Comes
Last week Preacher's Point ended with the battle of Armageddon and the Second Coming of Christ. Most people believe Armageddon is the end of the world, but that is not the case. This universe we now live in will melt with fervent heat a little more than a thousand years after Armageddon (2 Peter 3:10-13). … Continue reading The End Never Comes
The Tribulation (Part I)
Last week's Preacher's Point talked of Biblical prophecies yet fulfilled. Space only allowed us to reach the start of the Tribulation Period. This seven-year period is the topic of this week's column. The Tribulation begins when the Antichrist signs a covenant with many nations concerning the city of Jerusalem and the Jewish people (Daniel 9:27). … Continue reading The Tribulation (Part I)
What Is Armageddon?
A word used too loosely nowadays is Armageddon. It seems like anything big or significant and unpleasant is some sort of "mageddon" event, such as snowmageddon and retail-mageddon. The recent threat of nuclear war has brought the idea of Armageddon happening to mainstream thinking. A global nuclear war would be the worst event thus far … Continue reading What Is Armageddon?
Are There Tears In Heaven?
There are a lot of things that are yet to happen, according to the Bible. Most of the attention is on the rapture, the coming seven-year Tribulation Period, and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

America, God’s Face Is Against Us
Mass shootings have been all over the news in recent weeks. The leaked Supreme Court papers are also in the news every day. Mass shootings and abortion are closer than most people think.

What Manner Of Person?
2 Peter 3:10-12 speaks of the end of the world. The phrase, "The elements shall melt with fervent heat," is mentioned twice within the three verses. Verse 10 sets the stage by giving a vivid description of the end of time, "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; … Continue reading What Manner Of Person?
There Comes A Point
God is love (1 John 4:8), but God is also "a consuming fire" (Deuteronomy 4:24; Hebrews 12:29). Both aspects, love and consuming fire, are seen in the book of Jeremiah. Israel had forsaken God and fallen into sin. The Israelites were so far into sin; they were no longer embarrassed by anything anymore (Jeremiah 6:15; … Continue reading There Comes A Point
The Final Demise of Iran
How will the current saber-rattling between the United States and Iran end? Time will tell. How will Iran come to an end? The Bible tells us. Persia is mentioned by name in the Bible twenty-nine times. Persia changed its name to Iran in March of 1935. Whenever you read about Persia in the Scriptures, you … Continue reading The Final Demise of Iran
What do you want to be?
“A fireman!” “A doctor!” “A football player.” “President!” “A policeman!” “King of the whole world!” “A scientist.” Ask a group of ten-year-olds, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” and you will hear these and a wellspring of other answers. If you look closely, those answers are more suited for the question, … Continue reading What do you want to be?
