Our son called yesterday and said he and his family would visit today. Our first response was, "What time?" Everyone wants to know the time of an event. That way, we can plan around it. In our son's case, someone would have to adjust their plans if we had something already scheduled for when he … Continue reading How Soon?
Matthew
The Warning And Blessing Of Psalm 2
Are we close to Christ sitting on the throne in Jerusalem? If we are, the events leading up to Christ's kingdom are even closer. Biblical prophecy tells us before Christ's one-thousand-year reign is the rapture of the church, the rule of the Antichrist, and the seven-year tribulation period. The Bible calls certain events signs of … Continue reading The Warning And Blessing Of Psalm 2
What Manner Of Persons
Hamas' attack on October 7th, Hezbollah’s constant missile barrage upon Israel from Lebanon, Iran's aerial attack upon Israel with hundreds of drones and missiles, and Israel's response to all these things all appear to be fulfilling the sign Jesus spoke about when He said, "Wars and rumours of wars" (Matthew 24:6, Mark 13:7). Some of … Continue reading What Manner Of Persons

It’s Not What You Might Think
Over the weekend, Iran launched 300+ drones and missiles toward Israel. The Western powerhouse nations of the United States, Great Britain, and France, along with Jordan, came to Israel's aid and, along with the Israeli air force, shot down ninety-nine percent of the invasion. Authorities claim there was no significant damage. There is a seven-year-old … Continue reading It’s Not What You Might Think
How Close Are We?
I came to Christ at age fifteen, and God called me to preach at sixteen. From the get-go, I was fascinated by prophecy. When I was younger, I desired (and thought the odds were good) that I would live to see the rapture. However, as time passed, I began to think that maybe the rapture … Continue reading How Close Are We?
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
A House Divided
"A house divided against itself cannot stand." - Abraham Lincoln. "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand." - Jesus Christ (Matthew 12:25). Lincoln made his "house divided" speech in 1858. Jesus Christ's quote comes from around 30-31 A.D. Lincoln made his comment … Continue reading A House Divided
The Coming Persecution
Prophecy is a popular topic. People seem enthralled by the Biblical accounts of the end times. Whenever there is news of saber-rattling with nations involved in end-time prophecies, my mailbox fills with questions and predictions. Large earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, blizzards, hurricanes, and other natural events that are Biblical signs of the times also spark increased … Continue reading The Coming Persecution
Please, Think About Christmas for a Minute
Christmas is less than two weeks away. December is always a hectic month for us. Life is busy enough, but December adds school and church programs (and the practices associated with each), work parties, family gatherings, church suppers, and gift shopping, among other things. The weather does not cooperate either; it is usually drab and … Continue reading Please, Think About Christmas for a Minute
