Are the 144,000 Israelites ‘Saved’ in Revelation 7?
I view the 144,000 Israelites in Rev 7:4–8 as sealed in the sense of God choosing them to be saved when the end of the seven-year period is completed, fulfilling Daniel’s 70 week prophecy of the nation of Israel when they recognize Jesus as Messiah. They are also sealed in the sense of protection from the impending […]
The Meaning of Rosh Hashanah (Video)
“Before Rosh Hashanah begins tonight, we wanted to tell you what it is, how it is celebrated, and what it means for believers in Yeshua!” “The LORD spoke to Moses: ‘Tell the Israelites, ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you must have a complete rest, a memorial announced by loud […]
A Reply to Jeff Durbin’s Mishandling the ‘Left Behind’ Passage
In this video at the time stamp 55:00, preterist Jeff Durbin mishandles the context of the “Left Behind” passage in Jesus’s Olivet Discourse. He claims that it is the righteous who are left behind and the wicked taken to judgment. He has it completely backwards as the context will clearly show. (Incidentally, I don’t suspect […]

A Brief Reply to Arnold Fruchtenbaum on the Meaning of the Greek Noun Apostasia
Sometimes I am surprised to learn that pretrib teachers continue to perpetuate the lexical error that the Greek noun apostasia can refer to the sense of a “physical departure.” For example, just recently, Arnold Fruchtenbaum of Ariel Ministries stated: “However, the Greek word simply means ‘departure’. This could refer to a moral departure but it […]
