Revelation, Part 4 of 4 – Heaven, on Earth

“…and all the birds were filled with their flesh.” Through the last two posts, we went through the long… and brutal… process by which God tried to get the attention of those who still didn’t want to turn back toward Him. There was trauma after trauma as the people of the earth hardened their hearts … Continue reading Revelation, Part 4 of 4 – Heaven, on Earth

Revelation, Part 3 of 4 – The Dominance and Fall of the anti-Christ

In Chapter 13 of Revelation, we’re introduced to the anti-Christ. The anti-Christ I think it’s fair to say that of all the people mentioned in the Bible, none have caused as much speculation as the anti-Christ. For as long as I can remember, people have been conjecturing who the person might be, where he’ll come … Continue reading Revelation, Part 3 of 4 – The Dominance and Fall of the anti-Christ

Revelation, Part 2 of 4 – The Beginning of the End

The Greek word is “harpazos”. In Latin, it’s “raptura”, and it means “to be carried away to, or caught up to.” You’ve probably seen it translated as “Rapture”. Without a doubt, the concept is quite… unusual. And it’s been bastardized by all types of fringe groups and cults, including the infamous Heaven’s Gate crew that … Continue reading Revelation, Part 2 of 4 – The Beginning of the End

He would spend the next four days teaching in the temple and being quizzed by the Scribes and Pharisees. Sidebar:Exodus 12 describes the process that sacrificial lambs must go through before they can be slaughtered at Passover. For four … Continue reading The Hidden Significance of Jesus’s Clothes

Presidents Day – Making Sense of the 2020 Election

“I will make mere youths their officials; children will rule over them.” (Isaiah 3:4) God spoke this prophecy about the Israelites, warning them of the correction that would come if they continued living as they had been, with hearts turned away from Him.  When I read that verse now, I can't help but think it … Continue reading Presidents Day – Making Sense of the 2020 Election

Black Lives Matter or All Lives Matter?

This one was really tough to write. It seemed that every time I had my story together, some conflicting information would emerge and disrupt my narrative entirely. (I changed the title three times.) Maybe that’s a sign that I wasn’t (or I’m not) qualified to write it. Either way...   Let’s start with a personal … Continue reading Black Lives Matter or All Lives Matter?
