Asphyxiated With Deuteronomy 28:68
There is a dialogue among the 1 West Camp of ISUPK, Israel School United Practical Knowledge is asphyxiated with Deuteronomy 28:68 as a paradigm of slavery. They teach that the 12 tribes of Israel were scattered into the Americas via Africa in the TransAtlantic slave trade.
While they focus particularly on Deuteronomy 28:68 as a proof text, there are other verses in the chapter which refute the claim of perpetual slavery and its corollary of perpetual expectation of deliverance from it. This view has already fueled the futurist doctrine based upon the 9th chapter of Revelation.
In that chapter, ...

"That Day and Hour" Matthew 24:36
How can it be said that Christ returned in 70AD while at the same time the Bible said no man knows the day and the hour? Many say this proves that Christ's parousia did not occur in connection with the fall of Jerusalem.
They reason that when the Scriptures speak of the fall of Jerusalem it speaks of "those days" as in plural. However, when the subject changes to the return of Christ, they reason that it speaks of "that day" singular, thus making a distinction.
In this podcast we address the subject of "that day and ...

Memphis Eschatology Conference
Can you believe we are now in the last hour before the Memphis Eschatology Conference begins?

At any rate, we've heard from some who left home a few hours ago and are about to descend upon the city of Memphis. We're looking forward to seeing you. We've also heard from some ...

Is Christ Coming on the Clouds of Heaven?
The influence of Dispensationalism and Amillennialism have persuaded many that Jesus may at any moment be seen coming on the clouds of heaven. By this they mean that his return is near and that we will see him in the air riding upon literal clouds. But is this the manner in which the Bible uses the terms coming on the clouds of heaven? Should we look for a literal descent of the Lord in the skies?
Coming on the Clouds in Old Testament Literature
We must remember that the language of the Bible is set ...
Eschatology And The Faith

What Is the Connection Between Eschatology And The Faith?
The subject of Christ's return in AD 70 continues to be a major hurdle for believers, especially as it concerns eschatology and the faith. Many are not aware that the faith as system of salvation is achieved only through the consummation of the end times. In other words, it cannot be separated from the coming of the Lord. (Visit the audio page to listen to an audio version of eschatology and the faith.)
To establish our premise that the faith is directly correlated with the parousia, we cite a familiar text from Old ...
