11 Compelling Signs of the Last Days

11 Compelling Signs of the Last Days

I’m convinced that we live in biblical times that are far different than any time since the first century AD. I say this because of the abundance of signs pointing to the soon arrival of the seven-year Tribulation with the Rapture occurring before it starts.

The Rabbi Who Sparked Israel's Quest for the Land

The Witness of Church History: Bad Theology Begets Anti-Semitism

The massive influx of people from Muslim nations explains the anti-Semitic demonstrations in major cities across Europe and the U.S., but why the intense hatred such as at Cornel University in New York where Jewish students are forced to hide from danger?

The silence of churches concerning Israel’s right to the Land leaves a vacuum that the devil fills with murderous hatred.

Words That Give Us Hope Amid the Perils of Our Day

Words That Give Us Hope Amid the Perils of Our Day

Whether it’s the Gospel or any other belief, we depend upon the words of Scripture for truth rather than our own intuition or reasoning. “Why restate such an obvious truth?”

I do so because many believers do not understand how the words of Scripture relate to the perils we face today as our world teeters on the brink of a devastating war.

It’s Far Better To Heed God’s Warnings Now, Before They Become Reality

As I watch current events unfold in America and around the world, I find myself wondering why the Rapture has not already occurred.

I never thought I would see so many precursors to the Tribulation period as are evident all around us and yet still be waiting for the Lord’s appearing.

God Sees Our Distress; He Will Deliver Us

God Sees Our Distress; He Will Deliver Us

Is it not encouraging to know that the Lord knows all about our distressing circumstances? He already sees our deliverance. The One who has “called us to glory” (1 Peter 5:10) is ever so close to taking us there (Colossians 3:4).
