A few years ago, I wrote an article against the theory that FEMA camps are the US government’s plan to confine the non-compliant.  During the Covid-19 crisis, this idea has evolved.  Americans seem particularly preoccupied with the threat of authoritarianism.  The reaction is to over-compensate to anarchy, with rioting and demands to disband the police.  …

The words of this song do my head in – that the Lord blesses a thousand generations. My problem is that there’s only been about 200 generations since Adam, over the past 6,000 years, and there’ll be at most 50 more generations until this universe is replaced in another 1,000 years.  (Jesus is the 77th …

This question is often stated rhetorically to prove that the end of the age is imminent.  The answer, however, presents a stronger argument that the end of the age could be generations away.  The evils of today’s society are nothing compared to ancient times.  Well known examples of morally depraved empires were insufficient to require …

2 Thessalonians 2:1 Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us – whether by a prophecy, word of mouth, or by letter – asserting that the day of the Lord …

I’ve put together some timelines of scripture verses around end times.  This provides a great perspective of how everything fits together.  Some things fall nicely into place, and others seem to hang out of context. This perspective is important to correct sensational ideas that circulate regularly.  For example, some see the ozone hole, and claim …

One of my key objections to much end-times teaching is the concept of “the Restrainer”. 2 Thessalonians 2:1 Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us – whether by a …

My spirit is totally grieved hearing that “Hundreds of Californian churches plan to open May 31”, in defiance to the government so they can open on Pentecost.  Some may be mis-following prophecies, that a great revival will start on Pentecost.  Maybe, but God is not going to bless our rebellion.  This Pentecost is not the …

The world is split between Pro Life and Pro Choice.  This dilemma goes back to the Garden of Eden.  Choosing the ability to choose between good and evil forfeits life. Genesis 2:15 Then the Lord God took Adam and put him in the garden of Eden to look after it.  16The Lord God commanded Adam, …

Everyone’s familiar with the classic nativity play with the donkey and the three wise men gathered at the stable on a beautiful “Silent Night ♫”.  Fewer are aware that the donkey is never mentioned in the gospels, nor is a stable, and we don’t know how many wise men there were, but they brought three …

The Bible records the history of the Jewish people since creation.  Some of this is written in advance in prophecy.  The New Testament carries a mantra of “as it is written by the prophet…”.  Many denounce the book of Daniel as written after the fact because it so clearly outlines the rulers succeeding him but …
