It’s been longer than intended to get another post on line, but I had been in Los Angeles for a few days representing H.O.B. to some folks on a church mission’s board, as well as other things needing my attention. The morning after returning home, we began a move from one town to another. I hope never to have to […]
The Miracle of the Love of God
From day to day I find myself thinking of our Jewish pastor friend that we came in contact with due to our trip to Jerusalem at the end of March, 2012. Because so many of the volunteers had been killed for sharing the love of God with others in their individual towns, I dreaded receiving news that this pastor himself […]
For Such A Time As This…
by Jake (please be sure to read all the way to the end. The story at the end, which by the way really happened less than 48 hrs. ago, is almost unbelievable.) Since having spent a few days in Jerusalem and because of this trip being the vehicle God used to put Anne and I in contact with our new […]
The Great Escape…Or Not? Part 5
By Jake It is very easy to get real bogged down in doing a series like this one. So, I have decided that I’m going to shorten it. If I don’t, it will become a book. I do hope to at least hit the high spots so that I can at least make it clear why I believe so strongly […]
The Great Escape…Or Not, Part 4
I was looking over some scriptures and found myself amazed once again at how much is said in the Bible about what is happening today, right before our eyes. One thing I need to say once again as we look into what the Bible has to say about these days is that we must never forget that a person needs […]
The Great Escape…Or Not, Part 3
By Jake One of the things that is hard for people to really accept the true reality of, is that history, whether it is ancient and reaching back in time many thousands of years, or more recent past history that spans the time of Christ to the last few hundred years, or even the future which will inevitably become history […]
The Great Escape…Or Not, Part 2
James 1:8 says: “If anyone lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all…”
The questain of the Rapture!
The Great Escape…or Not?…Part 1
One of the great controversies of the Christian faith—especially at the time of human history we find ourselves in, has to do with the “rapture” or snatching away. I find that there are three basic views on this subject, as well as a few variations. Without being exhaustive in the explanations, I will looks into some of the differences. Also, […]
Preached To Death!
“On the first day of the week we came together to break bread. Paul spoke to the people and, because he intended to leave the next day, kept on talking until midnight. There were many lamps in the upstairs room where we were meeting. Seated in a window was a young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep […]
Crunchy Grasshoppers, Anyone??
I’ve thought a lot lately of how differently GOD’s words are delivered to the masses. The delivery varies about as much as a person’s personality. Education also makes a difference in how it is spoken. There are many other things that can be thrown into the mix, like the atmosphere that a person was brought up in, etc. I don’t […]
