Armageddon: Are You Seeking an Escape Route?
Much of what is taught regarding the end time is fear-based eschatology. Armageddon: Are You Seeking an Escape Route? pretty much says everything about the escapism predominant in churches today. Preoccupation with Armageddon characterizes those influenced by the escapist of Rapture theology. At the heart of the Rapture doctrine is fear, fear to face what is believed to be the great tribulation and a coming cataclysmic melt down of the planet. Christians are not spiritual Houdini’s seeking to escape from the world. Rather, they were assured they had overcome the world by their faith. ...

Three Clues To Mystery Babylon
Three clues to mystery Babylon are only part of the evidence for identifying the mysterious women in the prophetic book. In Revelation 17, we are introduced to a harlot woman enshrouded in a mystery. We are never explicitly told who this woman is. Nevertheless, there are three clues to mystery Babylon in Revelation which easily solve this mystery. In fact, there are several clues but
three are sufficient for our purpose.
Years ago when my son was about 11 or 12 years of age, among
other things, we bought him a Rubics Cube as a gift. I tried without ...
A Natural and a Spiritual Body?

A Natural and a Spiritual Body
In 1 Corinthians 15:44, the Apostle Paul speaks of the contrast between a natural and a spiritual body. Today, we hear a lot about “spirituality” especially from a new age perspective. However, most people claiming to be spiritual are completely out of harmony with the manner in which the term is used in Scripture.
In fact, the way many use that term is what the Bible emphatically calls the “natural” man. There are two Greek terms used to describe these contrasts. When these are understood, the difference between the natural body and the spiritual body becomes ...
Does Your Eschatology Need A Terrorist?

Have you ever had one of those I
can’t believe I’m reading this”
moments?
Perhaps you thought that when you
read the title, “Does Your Eschatology
Need A Terrorist?
Well strange as it may seem, that is
exactly what the dispensationalist
view of a future Rapture demands.
I could not believe that the author
of that blog lamented that the
terrorists were not cooperating with their endtime program.
You see in dispensational eschatology, they have some major problems
with fulfillment of the Lord’s second coming.
One, they have turned a past event into a future event.
Two, since all the prophecies related to the past event are already fulfilled,
they need new current events to give their ...

Is all Bible prophecy fulfilled?
That’s a little hard for most
believers and unbelievers to
grasp. It’s kind of like Obama’s
Presidency.
Less than two years ago the
question was asked whether an
African American or Black man
could be president of the the
United States.
Many have responded both publicly and privately that they never
imagined it would happen in their lifetime.
Yet, after an historical campaign, the winning of the Democratic nomination and yesterday’s inaugural events, skepticism tearfully for some turned to reality.
Why is Barrack Obama president today? It is because he saw himself as president two years ago with the eye of faith. His faith gave him hope and his ...
