Eschatology 10 Of 16 The Tribulation Period

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 13, 2022

The rapture of the church takes place in Revelation chapter 4.

Prophesying God's Judgment Series

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Sep 22, 2009

Jesus came as a Savior during His first coming. Saving grace has been available since then. Apparently that grace will come to an end when Christ returns and His Judgment will kick in. This is the reason we must get the Word out to all the perishing souls

Moody agreed thinking that he would never see him again. To his dismay he received a letter that said the young man would be in his town ...read more

Walking With God Series

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Sep 9, 2009

What are you going to do when stars start falling and nature goes berserk? Do you want things to happen for you to get back to God? It’s time we stop looking for signs but start listening to His voice. Enoch lived in trying times & yet he walked with God.

Reflections for ‘Prepared for the Rapture’: All died except Enoch – by rapturing God was showing the world that if they had not sinned, they would be gone to be with the Lord in the same manner. (Enoch – 7th generation from Adam) (Noah – 10th generation from Adam) **We live in the 7th century or ...read more
