I talked about a discovery of a seven-sealed (“bullae”) scroll in Israel at Wadi ed-Daliyeh that was still intact when it was found. I discussed the function of the scroll and its seals in the book of Revelation and what their relationship is with the trumpets and bowl judgments. You can see the images of […]

VIDEO | Will People Get Saved after the Rapture during the Day of the Lord’s Wrath?
Will people such as Gentiles get saved after the rapture during the day of the Lord’s wrath? And if so will those who are saved experience the day of the Lord’s wrath?

VIDEO | Pretribs Make the Same Categorical Error as the Thessalonians by Confusing Persecution with God’s Judgment
The Thessalonian believers in Paul’s second epistle were suffering because of persecution. They made the mistake of thinking that they were experiencing the day of the Lord’s wrath because of this.
