Because there are quite a number of questions on the subject of the “Rapture”, and because some find it controversial — or at least the timing of the event, I have updated and am re-running both parts of the series, back to back. I pray the reader is blessed and encouraged! We need it today! **************************** The “Rapture” has become one […]
Chronology of the Seals, Part Fourteen, Revelation 7
At the conclusion of the 13th installment of this series, we ended by saying that Jesus warned the disciples, and by extension all of us, that the end of the age would come with a sudden, unexpected, cataclysmic destruction. The Sixth Seal and all events connected to it certainly fit the description Jesus warned about. As we look at Revelation […]
Chronology of the Seals in Revelation Six….Part Thirteen
In previous installments of this series of articles, considerable emphasis has been placed on examining some of the details of the Gog/Magog War of Ezekiel 38-39 and its possible, perhaps probable, connection to World War 3 which currently seems to be ratcheting up quickly. We also spent time examining the details revealed in Scripture in describing the opening of the […]
Chronology of the Seals in Revelation Six…Part Eleven
In this part of the series on the chronology of the Seals in Revelation Six, we will begin to examine the relationship between the Sixth Seal, the Ezekiel 38-39 War of Gog and Magog, World War 3, the Rapture of the Bride of Christ, and the End of the Age of Grace. Fitting each into its place is a bit […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…5/22/2023…”When GOD’s Answer Isn’t So Prompt”
One of the things that sometimes can cause frustration in our Christian lives is when we are in difficult situations and, seemingly, no amount of prayer is changing things — or at least, not that we can see. Gary Wilkerson in his World Challenge Newsletter, addressed the subject by using King David’s prayer in Psalm 6 as an example. I […]
Chronology of the Seals in Revelation 6…..Part Ten
As I have previously suggested, due to the complexity of what is involved in the Sixth Seal event, the event may unfold over several days. This is suggested in ancient writings and visions by some of the Biblical patriarchs which were discovered in cache’s of ancient documents including the Dead Sea Scrolls. One of these is purported to have possibly […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….3/23/2023….”Is Anything Too Hard For Our GOD?”
Most of us have read Bible accounts of the spectacular miracles performed by Old Testament prophets, and of course in the New Testament, at the hands of Jesus and the Apostles. For most folks, it is not so hard to believe that the Biblical miracles really happened, but it’s a bit more of a challenge for some of us to […]
Chronology of the Seals in Revelation 6…..Part Eight
Over the years, we have seen movies or read books regarding the Rapture, or the Greek term “Harpazo”. Most Christians have imagined that the world will not be much different after the events as they are described. That is not possible, however, especially if one considers the effects of millions or billions of believers being resurrected from every place on […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…3/17/2021…Our GOD Never Leaves Us, Nor Forsakes Us
As I was recalling my last conversation with Pastor R, I thought back on the difficulties that our friend has gone through over the years. Snippets came to mind of stories about the first Omar, back in 2012 and 2013, when he took the first handful of Bibles over the border from Jordan into Iraq and subsequently started a House […]
Chronology of the Seals in Revelation 6……Part Six
In this current series of writings, two previous articles described the events found in Revelation 4 and 5. These are crucial in understanding what happens directly after the Seals are opened in chapter 6. So far we have discussed the first four Seals in some detail with regard to the significance of each seal and the timing of the beginning […]
