Some years ago, a woman approached me at the beginning of a prophecy conference where I was ministering and informed me that she was not a fan of messages on Bible prophecy. I was, of course, intrigued as to why this was the case. Her reason was that she was tired of the speculation and……

All Will Hear and Multitudes Will be Saved
Though it seems unlikely at this moment, the above is a true statement. The greatest time of fruitful evangelism is ahead for this world. And, for the many who will be saved, that time is inseparably linked to that period commonly referred to as the Tribulation. In various ways, people have wondered: “will there be……
Two Things Jesus will be Looking for
In my days in the college classroom, it was pretty clear that students liked to know what would be used to evaluate them. Simply put they wanted to know, “how do I get an “A” in here?” They would not buy into the idea that I would arbitrarily give them a grade at the end……
What Will Jesus be Looking for at the “Judgement Seat”?
Most of us can recall a time when an authority figure required us to come see them. It may have been the school principal or the company boss or the coach of our team or someone else. But as we anticipated the meeting, most likely we became somewhat stressed about it, not knowing what was……
What Is Done Today Does Count Forever
Whenever an athletic team, or even an individual, wins a major victory, there is a unique level of exhilaration and enthusiasm that erupts. The explosion of happiness cannot be contained. After spending hours in training and practicing, the victory that is being experienced leaves them with a limited vocabulary. The moment itself was overpowering and……
Maintaining and Maturing a “Two-World View”
As our culture rapidly departs from God’s truth, it descends into its own truth, which is constructed of deceptions, half-truths, slanted propaganda and outright lies. As the prophets of the Old Testament observed, they now call evil good, and conversely good is now evil. In such an environment, it is absolutely essential for the follower……
The Apostasy and the Harlot
It seems that the Apostles were acutely afraid of false teaching getting a foothold in the church; and so, they often wrote about it, warning believers to be on the alert. Satan’s tried and true method of attempting to thwart God’s work in this world is through the introduction of distorted doctrines. He has been……
Paul and the Progressive’s Perspective on Prophecy
One of the disturbing realities that we, as believers in the church face, is the invasion of “progressive Christianity.” And it is not just into liberal churches where this theological poison is found, but increasingly into so-called evangelical churches. “Progressive (I prefer “regressive”) Christianity” not only is bringing in several New Age ideas and practices,……
What’s Next for the Church?
It used to be that January 1st marked the time when people would make New Year’s resolutions and, perhaps, construct personal three-year plans. This year there seems to be less of all that, as people’s main goal seems to be survival. There is an unprecedented level of uncertainty in life today. But, for the believer……
Our Doubts and God’s Fulfilling of Prophecy
Impatience seems to be a regular companion of believers. This is partly because God seems to be rather slow in getting things done, and we often think that He needs to speed things up a bit. Even the Tribulation martyrs are seen crying out; “how long, O Lord, holy and true, will You refrain from……
