    We are to be in a constant state of reading for the Lords return. This worries many Christians but although some need to change, others are more ready than they think and they need to know.

    This sermon was delivered Gordon McCulloch to the congregation at Holy Trinity in Ayr, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 11th August 2019; Holy Trinity is a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries.

    Will Christians Go Through The Tribulation Period? (Vii) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Feb 15, 2021
     | 3,381 views

    Message explores the scriptural strength/weakness of the POSTTRIBULATION Rapture position. That is compared with the Pretribulation and Midtribulation positions.

    This is the seventh message exploring Scripture for an answer to one question: Will Christians go through the tribulation period. It is not an easy question to answer because there is no place in the Bible where we are specifically told when the rapture of the church will occur. We are certainly ...read more

    This Could Be The Year (2026) Of The Lord’s Coming

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 31, 2025
     | 913 views

    I title this sermon “This Could Be the Year of The Lord’s Coming.” Please notice, I did not foolishly say “This would be the year the Lord is coming back for His church.” But I did say, This Could Be the Year of The Lord’s coming back for His Church.

    Text: The Bible tells us in Matthew 24:36, “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” But it is obvious today that the lost world is not looking for Christ to return anytime soon. HOW DO WE KNOW THAT? Because they would not be living like ...read more
