The Last of the Last Hour
February 20th, 2020 | Eschatology | No Comment
The Last of the last hour clearly answers the question of the end times events in the Bible, particularly the resurrection, the Messianic temple, the coming of the eternal kingdom of God and the parousia.
The Lord and the apostles' testimony combine to show how critically new the hour of crisis was for those living in the first century generation. In this video we remove all doubt on how to understand and communicate this nearness.
Passages explored are John 4:20-24, 5:28-29, Romans 13:11-12 and 2 Peter 1:16-19.

Book of Revelation
Revelation or the apocalypse means an unveiling. The book is the message of the unveiling or revealing of Jesus Christ. John the Baptist played a key role in the revealing of Christ to Israel at his first coming.
When asked whether he was the Christ, Elijah (who was to come as prophesied by Malachi 4:5) or the Prophet like unto Moses, (Deuteronomy 18:15f), John denied. (John 1:20, 21)
Rather, he explained his mission of baptizing as directly related to the revealing of the Messiah. "I did not know Him; but that He should be revealed to Israel, therefore I came ...

Matthew 24 and the Signs of the Times
Are the natural events affecting the country today signs of the end? Jesus spoke of earthquakes, famines and pestilence in divers places.

What answers can we give them on what is going on around them?

Zion You Are My People
In this lesson, Zion you are my people, we examine Isaiah 51:16, as another text which speaks of the time of the generation to come in which God would create a new people. The text clearly lays out the sphere in which the new Zion occurs. It is the new heavens and earth. Isaiah says the God would plant the heavens and lay the foundation of the earth. He would then say to Zion, "You are my people."
The passage is a parallel to Isaiah 65:17f. In contrasts to the former covenant creation in Sinai, the new ...

End Times Signs Perilous Times Shall Come
Why are so many people preoccupied with the end times signs, at least so called? No doubt, with the enmormity and frequency of major natural disasters, a faulty paradigm of scripture causes many to believe that we are living in the last days and that the events of the end times are unfolding right before our very eyes.
Yesterday, two women, one mature aged and one middle aged knocked on my door and asked me if I understood that we were living in the last days? I said, no. They asked why not and suggested ...
