The 3 R's The Remnant, The Rapture And The Revelation

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Aug 12, 2015

Saints we should not be looking for the Rapture as our get out of jail free card. Bible scholars cannot even agree as to when it takes place only that it will take place. For that reason we must be ready to meet the Lord every day.

Message: This week I noticed a lot of articles and videos were being made about a series of events coming this September. While no one event stood out more so than another, when put together there did seem to be a theme. In September of this year there will be big decisions made by several world ...read more

Powerful Delusions

Contributed by Terry Laughlin on Oct 26, 2015

Delusion becomes all who do not fully embrace the truths of God's word. These people are intrigued with political leaders who have a worldly social agenda that embraces humanistic views.

Election Years - Powerful Delusions 2 Thessalonians warns of a time when "The man of lawlessness [we be] revealed." (2 Thessalonians 2:3) The Apostle Paul tells us "...the secret power of lawlessness is already at work..." (2 Thessalonians 2:7) This is happening because "...all the ...read more

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Nov 18, 2015

Who comes first, Christ or antichrist? This message lays the groundwork upon which we can build.

1. INTRODUCTION Yes, there are apparent contradictions in the Bible. A number of them! (I said apparent, not actual!) Ever tried to reconcile Divine Sovereignty with human free will?

What Must Happen Before Jesus Comes? Series

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Nov 24, 2015

The imminence of Christ's return has been taken to a point where certain Scriptures are now just ignored. Better to see imminence as a personal thing, which it truly is!

6. WHAT MUST COME BEFORE CHRIST? From this point on, I am assuming that Paul spoke the truth when he gave the fact of II Thessalonians 2. And that Peter also spoke the truth when he told his people to look for Jesus, though many things were coming first. Assuming there is no secret rapture, since ...read more

The Man Of Sin And The Second Coming. Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

The fact that Christians fall for so much makes it clear why all the warnings are in the Bible to be cautious in following any other authority than the Word of God. There is no other foundation which is safe, for even the most godly and intelligent have demonstrated their ability to be deceived.

Christians have not been the least among the gullible who have fallen for all kinds of gimmicks. One could write a lengthy history on the nonsense of the way Christians have been duped. A man in Fort Worth, Texas is giving away flat gold plated two inch nails. All you have to do is pound it in the ...read more

We Can Deceive Ourselves Series

Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Jun 29, 2021

Deception can come from within. Have you ever told yourself a lie, and talked yourself into believing it? That is self-deception. Have you ever seen your friends doing something, and you know it is wrong, but you still talked yourself into doing that exact same thing? That is self-deception.

Introduction My Bible tells me as we approach the end times, there will be one major event that will occur that the church is silent about for the most part, and therefore, the church is not teaching its members to be aware. But this event must occur, and we must be prepared for it because God ...read more

Satan's Two-Pronged Attack Series

Contributed by Troy Borst on Jul 6, 2021

Before the end Satan has a good plan to be bad. His plan centers on two points. The first point is ‘lawlessness.’ The second point is ‘believing what is false.’ We need to know this plan so we do not get caught in it, trapped, and end up coming to nothing ourselves.

When Deception Goes From Bad To Worse Series

Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Jul 14, 2021

We especially need to take notice since the deception of the end time will be far worse than anything that we have experienced to this point.

Introduction: So far in our study, we have looked at how we can be deceived. We can personally be deceived by gaining too much wisdom of this world that we discount the Word of God as irrelevant and unimportant. We also can experience deception by hearing the Word preached to us and then doing ...read more
