“For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ….We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed…” (2 Peter 1:16, 19).

The faith and life of a Christian stand not in fables and fairy tales but in the precise fulfillment of approximately 2000 prophecies that span hundreds of years. The prophets of old accurately foretold of the birth, life, death, and resurrection of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. Coincidence is ruled out by the science of probability. Things prophesied in the Bible happened just as predicted. Unique among all books ever written, the Bible is true, credible, powerful, and it works.Read more

“Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown” (Revelation 3:11).

For a number of months I have been deeply moved in my spirit that our time here on earth is quickly coming to an end. I do not believe that the Lord will delay His coming much longer. The message of the coming of the Lord stirs within me.

I am reminded of the prophet, Jesus ben Ananias, who walked the streets of Jerusalem crying out of the impending doom of the city before God destroyed it. “Woe, woe to Jerusalem.” The people called him crazy and tried to silence him. The city seemed at peace and was experiencing prosperity, but he repeated the cry. “Woe, woe – A voice from the east, a voice from the west, a voice from the four winds, a voice against Jerusalem.…” He prophesied for seven years and five months. The prophecy was fulfilled and catastrophe came to Jerusalem. Read more

The Scripture Is Our Guide

The second coming of Christ and subsequent events are of vital significance. There are many scriptures and prophecies concerning the end of time. “Theory and speculation amount to nothing with respect to future things” (D.S Warner). It is important that the scripture be the guide rather than intellectual and philosophical pursuits in understanding this subject. The scripture points forward to a time that Jesus will return. There will be a universal resurrection of the dead, a general judgment of all people, eternal rewards and punishments dispensed, and this earth will be destroyed. Read more

Will there be a millennial reign?

This a relevant question as there is much misunderstanding and false teaching concerning the second coming of Christ. The answer to the question is ‘no‘. There will not be a millennial reign.

While denominations have varying beliefs on the subject, the millennial reign theory usually includes a teaching that Christ will return to the earth and set up a ‘Millennial Kingdom’. They believe that Jesus, headquartered in Jerusalem, will rule over the nations of the earth for one thousand years before the final judgment. This is contrary to the clear scriptural teachings on the subject of Christ’s return and the nature of the Kingdom of God.Read more
