    Do The Jewish Festivals Reveal A Timeline For The Return Of Jesus?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jan 2, 2025
    based on 4 ratings
     | 415 views

    Some say that there is no understanding of Bible prophecy without understanding the Festivals and their typology and patterns.

    Since the early 1800s, when replacement theology found a foothold in the Church, some believe that once a person ‘grasps’ the meaning of the ‘festivals in the Bible,’ they will begin to understand the prophetic future of Jesus’ return with perfect clarity, and specifically a Pre-Tribulation ...read more

    When you report to the Commander-in-Chief will you receive a medal or an Article 15?

    I and my fellow Airmen heard this a lot from our Drill Sgt at Lackland AFB way back in 1970. I don’t think many of us had much of a clue or a plan other than to get out of boot camp as soon as we could. I am afraid many Christians still do not know what they are going to do with their life.

     | 890 views

    In the previous sermon, the Chief priests, lay leaders, and the Sadducees came to the Lord with some questions.

    They did not come wanting to know what the scriptures taught, they came using the scriptures as a means of trying to trap the Lord Jesus. But the Lord said to them in verse 24, “…Do you not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?” A lot of folks think they ...read more

    The message of Jesus on the Olivet Discourse is a message that is helpful to the church no matter where we are on the prophetic calendar.

    THE GREAT TRIBULATION TEXT: Mark 13:14-23 Mark 13:14-23 (KJV) But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: [15] And let him that is ...read more

    The Gog/Magog Prophecy Revealed

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 14, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,417 views

    Who is this Gog and Magog Ezekiel tells us about? And when will they invade Israel? The answer lies in Scripture. But we must be careful not to assume anything by our own understanding. We need God to show us the truth of this prophecy. Which I believe He has done today.

    Ever since Russia made its invasion of the Ukraine, pastors, preachers and evangelists all over the world have been quick to get on their proverbial "soap box" and claim that this is the fulfillment of the prophecy found in Ezekiel 38. And for a time, I also believed this was the prophecy ...read more

    Does the Holy Spirit act contrary to our will? Is He just the suggester-in-chief?

    Is the Holy Ghost a Gentleman? Acts 5:1-11 I don’t know how often I have heard that the Holy Ghost is a gentleman. It is often assumed that the Holy Ghost will not force His way on anyone. I use the older term Holy Ghost rather than the newer use of the Holy spirit because “ghost” comes from the ...read more
