The players are different. The technology appears to be far advanced from anything we have seen in just the past twenty-five years. Yet there is a sameness about today’s headlines that pertain to Israel. It’s about ancient foes.
A Fatal Illusion
It’s been heart-wrenching at times, but now I fear I have become numb to the nonstop drumbeat of suffering, disability, and death about which I read on almost a daily basis.
In the past couple years, I have read several hundred reports depicting the pain, suffering, and death caused by the COVID injections. Stories thoroughly buried by the mainstream news, but nonetheless real to those still suffering or grieving the loss of loved ones.

3 Reasons Why Satan Hates Jesus' Millennial Reign
The opposition to Jesus’ future reign on earth remains intense. Although premillennialism grew dramatically during the twentieth century, many Bible-believing teachers and pastors have reverted to Augustine’s platonic view of reality that denies biblical teaching regarding the millennium.
What has caused this reversal in recent decades? I believe the roots of today’s passionate opposition to premillennialism lie in Satan’s continuing hatred of anything to do with Jesus’ future reign.
Unforgettable Faces
It’s All About Israel
Is God finished with Israel? Most pastors today would answer yes. They either believe God has replaced Israel with the church or they may tell you that Jesus Himself fulfilled all the promises and covenants regarding Israel.
As a result, they see no prophetic significance in Israel’s miraculous rebirth as a nation. Those in this no more Israel camp make two critical errors.
Lessons from My Battle with PTSD
I know a great many believers, like me, have struggled with issues related to anxiety either in the past or are doing so now. My battle with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) was long, much longer than necessary because of my slowness in learning how to combat the anxieties and wounds from my past.
I will not go into the circumstances that led to my PTSD; I did that in another post.
These are not steps to healing, but rather biblical truths and lessons I gleaned along the rugged path to my healing from PTSD.

3 Reasons Satan Hates Heaven
If there’s anything has shocked me since I started writing about prophecy, it’s the large number of Bible teachers and Christian authors who relegate the entire book of Revelation to the past or else regard it as an allegory meant exclusively for first century believers.
So why do so many today put the fulfillment of the eternal state in past either historically or symbolically?
I believe it’s because Satan hates the idea of heaven (i.e. the new earth and New Jerusalem) and does all he can to discredit any teaching that regards Revelation 21-22 as literal future prophecy. He’s our enemy and as such loves to rip away our fondest hopes!
Our Most Powerful Weapon
It’s so easy to personalize our battles as being against a particular person or group and forget that our enemy is blinding their eyes to the truth, deceiving them, and turning them against what is good. Paul’s words in Ephesians 6:12 remind us that people and groups are not our enemy; it’s Satan who deceives others.
Because of the nature of our fight we have a most powerful weapon at our disposal. . . .
