Time Statements and Eschatology
In this study, of Eschatology, What do the Time Statements Mean?, we look at the time statements that give clues to when Jesus would return. Most believe it is presumptuous to know anything regarding Christ’s return. The reason is because of the words of Christ in Matt. 24:36, “But of that day and hour no one knows, but my Father only.” How can we know something that God only knows?
The answer to that is we can’t, unless of course God reveals his mind to us. “Even so no one can know the things of God except the ...

Eschatology in the Law and the Prophets
Identifying the right source for end times teaching is important to ensure proper understanding. Perhaps no greater injustice is done to New Testament interpretation than that of severing it from it’s Old Testament roots.
In this study, “Eschatology – What the Do the Law and the Prophets Have to Do With It?, we show the root and source of the eschatology we read about in the New Testament.
The apostles used the Old Testament Scriptures as the source for their eschatology. Keep in mind, they had no CNN, Modern Day

The first time I heard the world eschatology, I
thought, es-ka-what-ology? That was more
than two decades ago.
In this post, we’ll talk about Eschatology in
Bible Prophecy, Can We Understand It? But
first things first, and number one on the
agenda is a working definition.
Before we get to the “technical” issues, let
me share my journey with you, —briefly. I
learned this subject by simply reading the
text, particularly from Luke chapter 21:20–22.
Those verses literally changed my world on end times studies in more ways than this brief space allows. Suffice it to say, that the direction it pointed was 180 degrees away from where I was as ...
Seven Clues to Mystery Babylon in Revelation

From Fear and Fascination to Faith and Facts
My first encounter with the book of Revelation was fear. Who didn’t get a few chills running down their spine about the number 666, the
“mark of the beast,” the seven plagues and this dramatic portrayal of the endtime? That fear kept me from wanting to know more about

Then I stumbled across a study that made an intelligent versus fanciful media-hyped approach to the book. It addressed Revelation as a codedmessage, but written to the first century church who were part of its history and time. That ...

Rapture-holics Lost at Armageddon,-Kings of the East in Revelation?
This title that qualifies also as a paragraph. But, here’s a story to explain what it’s all
about. It all happened when during my usual routine day of relaxation, I received an urgent phone call from a customer in distress.
Hurriedly, I ran out of the door, jumped in my pickup and hit the expressway in route to my customer’s location or so I thought. My best customer needed service, -right away. The distance, several miles away, required urgency to arrive before the closing hour.
I didn’t want to go. I wanted a way out, ...
