Questions keep rolling into my mailbox. Over the last few weeks, the most asked question is - Does this Russia/Ukraine thing have anything to do with Bible prophecy? The short answer is - Indirectly yes. For the long answer, one needs to turn to Ezekiel chapters 38-39. Because names of nations change over the years, … Continue reading Puzzle Pieces – Russia, Israel, Ukraine.

Seventy Weeks
Benjamin Netanyahu was replaced as Israeli Prime Minister by Naftali Bennett yesterday. We will need to wait to see if the move causes any significant changes in Israel, the Middle East, or the world. We Americans, including the American church, tend to think the world revolves around us. The truth is - it does not. … Continue reading Seventy Weeks
Why Satan Wants To Rip You To Pieces.
All around us, there is a spiritual battle raging. Demons and angels are seen occasionally, but they are present, almost constantly. Before we go further with this thought, let me clarify something. When we do something bad, it is not Satan's fault. He or a demon may nudge us in the wrong direction, but we … Continue reading Why Satan Wants To Rip You To Pieces.

I reckon that is because Ahab … Continue reading There Is Nothing

The best word to describe it, I believe, is "uncertainty." People are uncertain about their health, the economy, social reform, the nation, the world. Christians around … Continue reading The Pre-Tribulation Rapture
Israel’s Land
Lost in the daily impeachment news is the story of Tuesday's announcement by President Trump's and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's peace plan for Israel. Praise for the plan is coming in from many corners. Qanta Ahmed, in a Fox News editorial, said the plan was "an offer too good to turn down." In Israel, Friday's … Continue reading Israel’s Land
The Bible – The Absolute Authority
Last week this column was a call to repentance. This week I hope to address a problem that seems to be rampant among Christians today - not believing the Bible. Back in 1987, I visited a church in Georgia. The Pastor preached out of several New Testament passages. His main thrust was why these verses … Continue reading The Bible – The Absolute Authority
