The way of holiness is narrow

The path less traveled holds the greatest reward. Matthew 7:13-14 – “Enter through the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the road broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who go through it. How narrow is the gate and difficult the road that leads to life, and few find it.” In reviewing the overarching themes of Yeshua’s Sermon on the Mount, many of the concepts overlap with one…

“By his stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5, KJV). These words blaze in the heart, yet they spark confusion. I’ve seen friends with chronic illnesses crushed when promised healings didn’t come, and heard preachers wield this verse as a guarantee of physical health, leaving the afflicted questioning their faith. What does “healing” truly mean in the Suffering Servant of Isaiah 53 (Isaiah…

Satan had been conquered, Satan’s allies vanquished, even the beast and its false prophet had been summarily done away with. Christ was the clear victor, God’s beloved people finally safe. Why not just throw away the key? #Revelation20 #TriumphalMarch

Revelation 19, 20: An Imperial Triumphal Parade Two years ago, as I was enjoying an intensive week of classes and student gatherings at Portland Seminary, a young professor named Shane Wood gave a guest lecture on what he called “An Alter-Imperial Interpretation of Revelation 20:7-10,” from his book “The Alter-Imperial Paradigm.” Below is the summary of his fascinating perspective. Why Must…

Jesus has called Jerusalem desolate and lamented over the city. The disciples pointed out the buildings, and Jesus predicted that not one stone would be left upon another. In response, His disciples asked when the end of Jerusalem would be and what would be the signs that Christ was coming in judgment, so as to remove one stone from another in the city. In Matthew 24, Jesus has been answering…

The Scarlet Harlot in Revelation

We have seen the bowls of wrath being poured out as Christ gave His life on Calvary. By now, you realize that most of what we’ve been handed as “end times” events is far-fetched. It’s hard to believe because it does not make sense. The Revelation of Christ is much more straight forward and simple to grasp. After Christ’s crucifixion, one of the angels who held one of the bowls being poured out…

Bible Q-n-A #266: Let’s Try This Again, again…

Six months ago I posted 12 questions for Brent to answer in our discussion of the AD 70 doctrine. After six months he has still failed to even try to answer any of them. Yet he continues to post comments on Bible Q-n-A ep. 255 saying that I need to make my first affirmative argument. I already posted a sermon video for that purpose and he rejected it as not a valid affirmative argument. Here is…

Wars and Rumors of Wars: An Introduction

********************

The first three audio presentations cover the Introduction to Wars and Rumors of Wars. I do not cover everything that’s in the book. You’ll want the book edition to study the Bible references and footnotes.

The fourth audio in this series is a critique of Mark Hitchcock’s The Truth and Timing of the Rapture, a defense of the pre-tribulational rapture published by Dallas…
