On the morning of November 11, just before 9:30 UT, a mysterious rumble rolled around the world. The seismic waves began roughly 15 miles off the shores of Mayotte, a French island sandwiched between Africa and the northern tip of Madagascar. The waves buzzed across Africa, ringing sensors in Zambia, Kenya, and Ethiopia. They traversed […]

Hell is a real, conscious place of torment – a brief reply to annihilationism
I want to make a brief note responding to the annihilationist claim that unbelievers will not suffer conscious torment after judgment day (i.e. they will cease to exist all-together). They will be “annihilated,” it is claimed. The problem with this view is that Rev 19:20 contradicts this notion: “And the beast was captured, and with […]
Falsely accused during the great tribulation . . . with no recourse
A great degree of the Church will be summarily executed during the great tribulation for not giving their allegiance to the Antichrist. Jesus and Paul however, teach that not all believers will die, but there will be a remnant who will survive up to the parousia. Christians will also be falsely accused, many, Jesus teaches, […]
Models of Premillennialism (Book Notice)
Models of Premillennialism by Sung Wook Chung and David Mathewson Purchase the book on kindle or paperback The meaning of “the millennium”–the thousand-year reign of Christ spoken of in Revelation 20–has been controversial for much of the church’s history, and even the main perspectives on the matter turn out to be more variegated than […]
“The events depicted in the book of Revelation could never take place…they are merely symbolic” (Video)
A Surprise From the Supervolcano Under Yellowstone Beneath Yellowstone National Park lies a supervolcano, a behemoth far more powerful than your average volcano. It has the ability to expel more than 1,000 cubic kilometers of rock and ash at once — 250,000 times more material than erupted from Mount St. Helens in 1980, which killed […]
The ‘Thousand Years’ Reference in Revelation 20 Indicates a Period of Time
Last week I responded to an objection that the thousand years reference in the book of Revelation is not literal. I want to address a similar objection. But this time it is not an objection by amillennialists. Premillennialists and amillennialists agree with each other that the thousand years reference denotes a temporal period, that is, a […]
Answering a Common Amillennial Objection to Premillennialism on When Death Is Eliminated in Relation to the Millennium
Leaving aside the question of the timing of the millennium for this article, though it is related to this issue here, amillennialists, such as Sam Storms, adduce a common objection against premillennialism. He and other amillennialists cite 1 Cor 15:25–26 as evidence for amillennialism: “For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under […]
I agree with L. A. Marzulli’s View of UFOs, BUT, and this is a big BUT. . .
L. A. Marzulli was recently on Prophecy Watchers talking about what he is mainly known for: the UFO phenomenon (see video below). When I say I agree with him on UFO’s, I am speaking generally in that genuine UFO phenomenon is demonic in origin. This interpretation is nothing new. If, for example, you grew up […]
The Antichrist Cannot Kill Your Soul. So Stop Being Afraid.
Let’s face it, here is the main reason why many pretribs reject prewrath. . . One of the main reasons, which is unstated, why many pretribulationists reject prewrath is an emotional one: they do not want to think that they may have to face the Antichrist. “But Alan, you cannot read their hearts!” Actually, I […]
What is the difference between a Christian being martyred today and a Christian being martyred by the future Antichrist?
There are two levels where this question is answered, the corporate and individual level. Corporately The church has been persecuted for about 2,000 years by many antichrists (plural). This is a historical fact that is undeniable with the myriads of accounts of believers dying for their faith all around the world up to this very […]
Street Preaching the Good News of Jesus’s Second Coming
Every Saturday morning some from my church go to an abortion clinic in Jersey to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ and warn sinners to repent before the soon-coming day of judgment when Jesus returns to be their judge or deliverer. If you live in North Jersey and belong to a Bible-believing church come […]
