Premillennialism

Don't Look Outside the Window

Don't Look Outside the Window

The video was unforgettable. A woman on a train remained focused on her smartphone despite the chaos outside happening her window. As she smiled at the images in her phone, only a pane of glass separates her from widespread destruction and fires along the path of the train.

The Biblical Necessity of the Seven-Year Tribulation

The Biblical Necessity of the Seven-Year Tribulation

The third Jewish temple been in the planning stage for three decades. The Temple Institute in Jerusalem has made all the furnishings for the third temple with the exception of the Ark of the Covenant for which they claim to know the location of the original one. They have the architectural plans for it and are currently training Levites to serve as priests.

As Questions Swirl, God’s Sovereignty Stills Our Troubled Minds

As Questions Swirl, God’s Sovereignty Stills Our Troubled Minds

The sound of rain soothes my soul. This was particularly true this past Sunday morning as I sat in my office rehearsing the events of the previous evening. I knew it was likely someone might jeopardize the life of President Trump, but it shocked me to see it happen.

Back in October 1962, I sensed the fear that gripped the U.S. because of the threat posed by the presence of Russian missiles in Cuba. Today, the situation is far more terrifying; because we are significantly closer to a nuclear conflict than in the last century. For most people, however, a dreamlike aura persists despite the imminent perils.

Jesus’ Soon Appearing Versus the Normalcy Bubble

Jesus’ Soon Appearing Versus the Normalcy Bubble

Most people live in a “bubble of normalcy” where they feel secure because of exaggerated and unrealistic hopes of either a return to normalcy or of their current lifestyle continuing indefinitely into the future unhindered by the perils around them. They sleep with no fear that their bubble might burst in the near future.

How Much Longer Can It Be?

How Much Longer Can It Be?

Just like a monkey about to hit a lion with a stick, the globalists are provoking dangerous beasts throughout the world knowing that their actions will not end well for a great many people. What’s different is that they will initially prosper from the anarchy they cause.

Don't Run in the Wrong Direction with Bible Prophecy

Don't Run in the Wrong Direction with Bible Prophecy

With Bible prophecy, it’s necessary to distinguish between the comings and goings if one is to be regarded as “rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). Words matter (Proverbs 30:5) if we are to avoid running the wrong way.

The Unheeded Warning of Ebrahim Raisi's Death: Don’t Mess with Israel

The Unheeded Warning of Ebrahim Raisi's Death: Don’t Mess with Israel

The wicked misinterpret God’s patience and continue in their wicked ways. Raisi, thinking he was above reproach for his monstrous actions, continued to breathe out threats to destroy Israel, never imagining that the Lord would so soon hold him accountable for his great wickedness.

Debunking Popular Lies about Premillennialism

Debunking Popular Lies about Premillennialism

Has the definition of Premillennialism changed in the past few decades? I ask this because during the past several years, a few pastors told me they were Premillennial, but they didn’t adhere to a futuristic interpretation of the book of Revelation or the restoration of a kingdom to Israel.

HEREAFTER: It’s Far Better Than You Can Imagine 

HEREAFTER: It’s Far Better Than You Can Imagine 

In our new book, Hereafter, Terry James and I explore what the Bible reveals about eternity. What we discovered from our examination of Bible prophecy is just what the subtitle says, “It’s Far Better Than You Can Imagine.”

5 Popular Lies About the Rapture

5 Popular Lies About the Rapture

Within the walls of most churches that claim to believe in the inerrancy of Scripture, the most unpopular belief today is that of the pre-Tribulation Rapture. In such places of worship, one never hears about it while in other instance, it’s flatly denied.

As a result the backlash against our ‘blessed hope,” much of what people read about it in books and on social media just is not true.

Living on the Edge of Eternity

Living on the Edge of Eternity

Imminency. It tells us we live each day on the edge of eternity. The Rapture might begin at any moment.

However, as the moments become days and then weeks, months, and years, we struggle to maintain our eager anticipation of Jesus’s appearing.

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.

Although many mock our expectation of Jesus’ soon appearing, the words of Scripture side with those of us who cherish the hope of His imminent return.

What Lies Behind Today's Siege of Bible Prophecy?

What Lies Behind Today's Siege of Bible Prophecy?

Over the past few years, I have noticed an underlying current in teachings that deny such things as the Rapture, the seven-year Tribulation, and Jesus’ thousand-year reign before the eternal state. They have the net effect of diminishing Jesus’ role in end time events, which inevitably shifts the focus of the saints away from the Savior to the things of this life.

2024 Solar Eclipse: Coincidence or Final Warning?

2024 Solar Eclipse: Coincidence or Final Warning?

Could the upcoming completion of an X across the U.S. midsection by the April 8, 2024, eclipse point to another catastrophe in the months afterward such as happened in 1811 after another darkening of the sun completed an X in the same area?

Is this just an uncanny coincidence, or does it point to something far more ominous?

Replacement Theology: A Backdoor Assault on the Integrity of Scripture

Replacement Theology: A Backdoor Assault on the Integrity of Scripture

Much like a quarterback suddenly tackled from behind by a player from the opposing side, the claim that God has rejected Israel and replaced the nation with the church represents a blindside assault on the integrity of Scripture.

The Error That Causes Christians To Misunderstand The Purpose Of The Tribulation by Amir Tsarfati

The Error That Causes Christians To Misunderstand The Purpose Of The Tribulation by Amir Tsarfati

The 70th week of Daniel, also known as the Time of Jacob’s Trouble and the Great Tribulation, is one of, if not the most, decisive arguments for the pre-tribulation Rapture of the church. 

Finding Peace in a Fear-Mongering World

Finding Peace in a Fear-Mongering World

Where do we go when the perils of this life spark anger within us or cause us to retreat within ourselves in fear of what might happen next? Where do we find peace in a fear-mongering world?

Scripture Must Have the Final Say in All Things Pertaining to Both Our Faith and Israel

Scripture Must Have the Final Say in All Things Pertaining to Both Our Faith and Israel

Since our status as justified saints can never be undone, the same perpetual quality must of necessity also apply to God’s promise of restoring a kingdom to the nation of Israel.

Both rest in the enduring quality of God’s Word and the unchangeable nature of His promises to us.

Why Was it Necessary for God to Choose One People?

Why Was it Necessary for God to Choose One People?

Why did God choose the sons of Jacob, later named Israel, to be His special people. The Bible does not tell us why; it was His sovereign choice, which Romans 9 makes clear.

Although we cannot look inside God’s mind on this matter of selecting Israel, in hindsight, we recognize why it was necessary for the Lord to choose one specific race of people.
