American warships are positioning themselves near Iran. The rumors of war are raging. The buildup of naval and air power is very similar to what happened off the coast of Venezuela before America took President Maduro into custody. Many believe that if there is an attack on Iran, the goal is regime change. Is what … Continue reading Iran, Elam, Persia

Will America Do What’s Needed?
Mark 3:24-26, “And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end.” All of us should pay attention to every word God says, but … Continue reading Will America Do What’s Needed?
How Does God Feel About Israel & The Jews
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
The Fulness Of Time Was Come
“But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.” Galatians 4:4-5. This is one of my favorite Christmas passages. Notice that Jesus came at just the … Continue reading The Fulness Of Time Was Come

Have you ever wondered what the world was like before Christianity? For us Christians, we have the Old Testament, and we can read how God interacted with Israel and the Hebrew people.

Nearly everyone can include marriage, the birth of children, and grandchildren on the list. Still, I will set those aside for the moment and … Continue reading Life Changing Events

The spirit of antichrist was already at work two thousand … Continue reading The Spirit Of Antichrist

This … Continue reading Regardless Of Who Wins
Warnings From Jeremiah
As I read Jeremiah, I cannot help but see the parallels between the United States and Israel of old. Do not get me wrong; Israel is God's nation. God gives promises to Israel that belong to no other country, but there are striking similarities in spiritual history. God makes it clear that Jeremiah is a … Continue reading Warnings From Jeremiah
Generations
I overheard a conversation between a mother and her twelve-year-old daughter about ten years ago. The scene was a parade. A local church had a float in the parade with a man on a cross. "Why is that man hanging on that cross?" "That's church stuff. You don't need to worry about that." Something to … Continue reading Generations
