Honestly, sometimes I feel I am the only one who is grieved by the sensationalism and misinformation out there on Bible prophecy
People seem to be freaking out about the near future. I don’t know why as a Christian. It is sadly ironic that Jesus said, “Make sure that you are not alarmed, for this must happen” and yet so many people are freaking out. When publishers print “the-sky-is-falling” books, it sends the wrong message to God’s […]
Apostasy and Perseverance – Can a Believer Lose Their Salvation?
God’s elect will not lose their salvation because God’s sovereign, decretive will perseveres the faith of his people.

Joseph Farah of WND Moving Away from His Pretrib View…
I am encouraged to learn that Joseph Farah recently announced that he is moving away from his pretrib view to evidently a prewrath view: As a new believer nearly 40 years ago, I accepted the idea that born-again Christians would be raptured out of this world long before the world got Revelation-style ugly. I defended […]

VIDEO: Open Air Preaching at the New Jersey Auschwitz
Saturday morning with a balmy 10 degrees, Robert Parker and myself alternated open air preaching at Englewood’s “Women’s Center” (aka the Auschwitz of New Jersey).
