Do You Pray For The Kingdom to Come?

As a third grade student, we had devotionals
in our public school classroom everyone
morning which involved the class singing
in unison what is typically known as the Lord’s
prayer, See Matt 6:9–13.
I later learned that this is the prayer that
the Lord taught his disciples to pray. In that
sense, it would more aptly be described as
the disciples prayer. See Lk 11:1ff.
However, after studying the prayer, I
discovered that I could not conscientiously
pray that prayer as Jesus taught his disciples
to pray it. Why is that?
Well, it’s because it is a prayer of the
coming of the kingdom. In that prayer, Jesus taught ...
Why Is Rapture Ready Not Ready?

Why are people who sit around waiting for
the Rapture always disappointed at its non-
occurrence?
Why is Rapture Ready Not Ready? Maybe this story
from my grandmother will help to explain why.
My grandmother was a very good cook. She could
fry chicken that would rival Colonel Sanders drool
any day.
One of my deepest regrets is not capturing all of
those savory recipes that we enjoyed during the
time she was with us.
On separate occasions, she taught me how to bake
a pound cake, sweet potato pie, make homemade ice
cream and cook dried beans.
My grandmother also was very witty. She’d have allthese old sayings ...
Does Chicken Little Write Bible Prophecy?
December 11th, 2008 | Armageddon | No Comment
Do you remember reading the
chicken little story? It’s about a
little chicken named Henny Penny.
Does Chicken Little write Bible
Prophecy?
One day Henny Penny was walking
through the woods and an acorn
fell on her head.
She reasoned, the sky is falling, the
sky is falling.
Then, she went and spread her hysteria
about the end of the world to all her
friends.
She even told her enemy, who was a
wise old fox. He knew the sky was not
falling.
Because Foxxy Woxxy knew the truth,
he decided to deceive Henny Penny
and her friends.
Henny Penny’s message caused them
to live their lives in fear, afraid to
venture out rather than live in peace
abundance and happiness.
This fear led ...
How Can You Be Raptured from Financial Armageddon?...
November 13th, 2008 | Armageddon | No Comment
There is no question that a financial crisis was a sign
of the end time which came to pass in the first century.
The book of Revelation speaks of a beast who affected
the entire economy.
Under his designs none but those who had the
mark of the beast could buy or sell. (Revelation 12:17).
This had the net effective of a severe financial crisis.
Have you ever experienced a financial crisis in your life?
I remember back in the 80’s when I came very near
having my automobile re-possessed and within hours
of foreclosure on my house.
At the time, I worked in commission sales full-time, but
it seemed I only got paid ...
Will the Antichrist Come out of the European Union...
November 4th, 2008 | Antichrist | 1 Comment
No, the Antichrist will not come out of the European
Union. The myth of the European Union in Bible
prophecy is based on a misinterpretation of the
ten-horned beast of Daniel 7:7 which is the ancient
Roman empire.
Due to the influence of Dispensationalists such as
John Walvoord, Tim Lahaye and others, Revelation
13 is supposedly a future prophecy of the revivification
of a 10–nation confederacy in which it is claimed Italy
must be a part.
This is nonsense. The error is compounded in failing to
properly assign the date of Revelation to a Pre-
destruction of Jerusalem time frame and an application
harmonious with first century history.
Additionally, the 10–horned beast of Daniel’s ...
