Obama Israel Issue Overshadows Palestinian Israel Conflict
Politicizing the Obama Israel issue detracts from the real issues at stake in the objectives for peace to the Palestinian Israel conflict. Let me say up front that I am not into politics per say and have very little patience for the bi-partisan games that are played in government circles. When the good of the country is made subservient to the party a person belongs to, it is simply not what I enjoy discussing.
While many, especially republicans oppose President Obama for many reasons, here is one issue of which I feel they should all ...
Christian Prophecy

Christian Prophecy
Christian prophecy is a misnomer of sorts, a name used to describe prophecies of the Old Testament reiterated in the New. Yes, there are many claiming to have a prophetic gift today

Are Problems with Preterism Imaginary Born of Fear...

In view of some recent podcasts attacking the preterist position of eschatology, we want to address some of the fears and misinformation being disseminated. Are problems with Preterism imaginery ideas born of fear and ignorance? Listening to some futurist eschatology podcasts and examining their writings one would think so. However, it's always best to hear both sides of the story.
Preterism is now being defined and tagged as "extreme preterism" and "moderate preterism",and even sometimes is styled "hyper preterism" versus "partial preterism." There are other names but the purpose here is to present some distinction between the concepts above. By "extreme ...

Has the last trumpet sounded? By the
last trumpet we mean the eschatological
trumpet that consummates the last days
events.
According to Numbers chapter 10, Israel

trumpets through the instruction of Moses.
Specific details for the gathering of the
