    Walking With Christ In Turbulent Times. Series

    Peter wrote to the scattered and persecuted Christians throughout a vast area. Peter is writing as a fellow sufferer. Peter probably wrote this book from Roman imprisonment.

    The sixties were very turbulent times. I was born in 1961, but I am not talking about those sixties. I am talking about AD 61 to AD 70. It is the context, and it sets the stage for what Peter wrote and to whom Peter wrote in his books. Peter wrote his first book 1 Peter in about 63AD and this book ...read more

Although God pours out His wrath upon the world during the seven years of the Great Tribulation, He also ...read more

     | 437 views

    The Light of God appears, falls upon individuals, and shines at events when Heaven and Earth meet. This meeting between Heaven and Earth, God and his people, happens more often than we think. The Light falls upon us and bathes us even though we may not see it unless we are in direct union with God.

    The church tradition tells us that Jesus's transfiguration took place on Mount Tabor. The mountain rises like a sugarloaf in a vast plain in the middle of Galilee. The mountain is exceedingly high and beautiful and was anciently covered with green trees and shrubs. Therewith Jesus was Peter ...read more
