Joel 2:30–31 “I will produce portents both in the sky and on the earth– blood, fire, and columns of smoke. The sunlight will be turned to darkness and the moon to the color of blood, before the day of the LORD comes– that great and terrible day!” Isa 13:6–13 “Wail, for the LORD’s day […]

I considered two significant activities that God is doing with Israel during the church age to prepare them for salvation. Making Israel Jealous and Saving a Remnant In Rom 9–11, the apostle Paul articulates his […]
Failed Recall or Ignorance?
Source Since [the church] had no part in the first sixty-nine weeks, which are related only to God’s program for Israel, it can have no part in the seventieth week, which is again related to God’s program for Israel after the mystery program for the church has been concluded. J. Dwight Pentecost, Things to Come, […]
When Did the Church Begin? (Video)
Tony Garland in his helpful video below explains with clarity when the church was established, giving evidence that it was at the pouring out of the Spirit at Pentecost portrayed in Acts 2. He gives sound biblical criteria in determining when this great new event of the church age of God’s redemptive program began. At […]
A Response to the Pretribulationism and Dispensationalism of James C. Morris in Light of His Abuse of the Early Church Fathers
First, I must say, when you write me through the contact page, it is best to give a salutation and signature to your email, otherwise I typically do not even read emails that do not contain these basic and respectful elements to a letter.

The program is an exercise of wishful thinking claiming that the early church writers were “pretribulationists” (see the video below). Anyone with a modicum of knowledge of what the early church writers taught on this issue understands that they taught that the […]
Moving the Goalposts on Daniel’s 70 Weeks Prophecy
Today I did an episode demonstrating that God has worked with Israel and the church simultaneously in the past. I described three prophecies that were given to Israel, and about Israel, that have been fulfilled in the past during the church age. The point of this was two-fold: (1) to demonstrate that God does indeed […]
In season and out of season
I went for a stroll this morning in a state park in North Jersey (literally on the NJ/NY border, not too far from where I live). There was nobody there, complete silence, only the birds. I soaked in the invigorating solitude. After the stroll before I drove home, I figured I would go for a country jaunt […]
