     | 19,820 views

    The first in a series of messages on Matthew 24 & 25, this message focuses on understanding that Matthew 24 is primarily pointing to the destruction of Jerusalem and warning us not to waste time predicting the time of Christ’s return. Rather, be prepared at all times.

    Because Jesus Is Returning . . . "Understanding Matthew 24" You can’t read the article that appeared in the Atlanta Journal, June 5, 1997 without some remorse and sympathy for Clarence Jackson.

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 3, 2002
    based on 14 ratings
     | 5,016 views

    There is a hidden infection out there, resting under the surface, waiting to erupt into the world system. Do you know what it is and more importantly, are you ready? Learn about end times prophecy and the Rapture of the church.

    This message deals with the importance of being ready and deals with the difference between those who will be found faithful and unfaithful.
