    "When you see the abomination of desolation" Matthew 24:15...

    Hi there, So I had this idea that the abomination of desolation represented the dead bodies of the Israelites in Israel, at the time of the beheading of those who do not receive the mark of the Man of Sin. The abomination is that they are the elect and should not be dead; the desolation is that...

    Soulless People - Bible Source Needed

    I thought I read in the book of Revelation that in the end of times there would be people without souls. On going back, I cannot find this mentioned anywhere; digital Bible word searches and search engines have not yielded any such verses. I know it can’t be just me, because I have had more...

    Knock, Knock.....who's There?

    Revelation 3:20 does NOT speak to evangelism. The Lord Jesus Christ does not stand at the door of an unsaved person's heart, hat in hand, knocking, knocking, knocking, calling, calling, calling, hoping, hoping, hoping, only to be disappointed in many cases! Why? Because He knows that the person...

    The Last Word...

    Hebrews 1:1-4 In giving us his only Son, God also gave us His final Word (John 1:1-4). In Christ, God spoke everything to us that He desired to speak, all at once and once and for all. Christ is the Alpha and the Omega, the heir of all things, by Whom also the worlds were made. Christ is the...

    Seven Standards Of Christian Life. Part 2

    The second of these standards is enduring faithfulness to the person of Christ (Smyrna). In the case of the Chruch at Smyrna, endurance is discussed in relation to human weakness and severe persecution. The people were not to fear because the Lord knew their situation perfectly and promised...

    Seven Standards Of Christian Life. Part 1

    The book of Revelation, chapters 2-3, provide us with seven standards for our life of faith. 1) Adherence to the first love of redemption. We love God because He first loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins (1 John 10, 19). In continually observing the first love we...

    Revelation About the Book of James

    The book of James confused me a lot. Everywhere in scripture it says we are saved by faith alone, not works, so I got confused about James 2. I saw some preachers twisting scripture in a way that still did not make sense... Saying things like being saved from man and stuff like that. So I...

    Ezekiel to Revelation

    I highly recommend this video for a very good understanding of the book of Revelation. This young lady did a phenomenal job in breaking it down.

    The Goes to the Christians

    Is it possible that we are way past the days of Revelation? I mean this as in, what if the persecutions of the Jews and Christians by guys like Constantine were the End of Times? What if the wars were won already? What if the 1,000 years with Jesus happened? What if we are living in the time of...

    When Awakened

    Philippians 2:14-16 ESV Do all things without grumbling or disputing, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast to the word of life, so that in the day of...

    What Triggers the Beast?

    Note that this is not to determine what the beast is.. who the beast is... or exactly when the beast is. Only a discussion of the trigger which causes the beast to come out of the sea. I'm not here to say that this is what WILL happen, or that I am correct (Who can know? Surely not I) but to...

    Adam And Eve, Christ And Israel.

    I don’t know how coherent this will be but it hit me like a lightbulb this afternoon and I wanted to note it down. I might try and edit it in the future really just for me but others might need it. How in Genesis God made Adam outside of the garden and brought him into it. And How without God...

    The Bereans searched the scriptures daily to see if this were true...

    I have been a student of the bible for over 50 years. I still don't feel I have fully discovered all that God has revealed to us through His Holy Spirit concerning all the wonder of His creation and desire for us to be obedient to His will. Some organizations list over 40,000 different...

    Movies about the Book of Revelation

    Since I found myself less familiar with the period of church history running from the end of Acts up to c. 200 AD, I watched all the movies that I found about the Church in that time (See: Movies on the Early Church) , the writing of the N.T.(Movies on the Writing of the New Testament), the 12...

    Meditation on the Book of Life

    Scripture meditation ~ November 2, 2018: I try to study and meditate on at least one Chapter a day, usually in the morning [Psalm 5:3] - although distractions to which I am particularly vulnerable abound. Sometimes I get sidetracked and miss it; other days I'll get inspired and go 5 or 6...

    Book - Sealed with 7 Seals

    John saw a book, sealed with 7 seals, in the Father's right hand. Over time, he saw Jesus ascended into the throne room and take the book and then begin breaking seals. This poses a problem: most people simply don't understand the purpose of the seals are to prevent anyone unauthorized from...

    Wisdom from Above versus Wisdom from this World-Matthew 11:25

    Wisdom from Above versus Wisdom from this World-Matthew 11:25 Very often in this life, many people think, that the more educated they are, and the more they learn in this world, the wiser they become. But the Word of God says, that we as Christians, will be wiser, if we get more knowledge...

    Possibility of Aliens even with Christian Theology

    So, I had a discussion recently with someone who believed that aliens probably exist on other planets. After talking to them for a while longer, I understood that they were a Christian, so I tried to use biblical arguments to shoot this down, since I don't believe aliens exist. I realized that...
