Jesus, the Mystery Form of the Kingdom, and Last Things
A Tipping Point Israel as a whole and its religious leaders rejected Jesus Christ with chapter twelve of Matthew the deciding juncture, a tipping point. They said that Jesus cast out demons by Beelzebub. The Lord declared that it was the treasury of their heart out of which they made that pronouncement about Him. Jesus […]
Early Attack on True Doctrine Upends Catholic and Protestant Historical Argument
Part One Part Two Part Three Part Four Part Five Part Six Early Departure In one sense, I’m circling back to part one of this series, by reaffirming the early departure from the path of truth in the early church. Some might say this is a convenient historical position, but what is most convenient is […]
You Can’t Separate the Distorted Doctrine from Its Deviant Source of Allegorical Interpretation
Part One Part Two Part Three Part Four Doctrine, False or True, Emerges from Interpretation When you read a doctrinal statement, you might see scripture references attached as proof texts for the various doctrinal pronouncements. That could serve to signal that the doctrine comes from the Bible. Someone might use a verse […]
My Analysis of the Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz Showdown
Carlson Cruz Interview As many of you know, because it went viral, Tucker Carlson invited Ted Cruz on his show to discuss Israel and Iran. Carlson went to Cruz’s office apparently to do the interview. I did not watch the one to two hour conversation, but I saw ten to fifteen minutes of it and […]
Eschatology Is Affecting the Foreign Policy of the United States
Part One Premillennialism and Foreign Policy A large percentage, I would say 35% of the population, of Americans is premillennial. Almost 100 percent of those were Trump voters in the 2024 election. Premillennialism takes literally the Old and New Testament promises to Israel. Amillennialism and postmillennialism are growing in the United States, but it is […]
The Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the Saints and Revelation 6:17
Does Revelation 6:17 support, or undermine, a pre-Tribulation Rapture of the saints? We have considered other Rapture positions in relation to passages in the book of Revelation in other posts on this blog. Consider the context: Rev. 6:12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great […]
2 Thessalonians 2:3 & Pre Trib Rapture: “Day Shall not Come”
People that deny the pre-Tribulation Rapture of the saints sometimes use 2 Thessalonians 2:3 to argue for their position. Let us examine this verse in its context: 1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken […]
Eschatology and Political Activism from the Right and the Left
Living in the Last Days If you travel in evangelical circles, you might hear language especially today that says, “We’re living in the last days.” Those words, “last days,” occur eight times in the King James Version. These are two prominent usages: 2 Timothy 3:1, “This know also, that in the last days perilous times […]
The Purposeful Contortion and Confusion of End Time Truth (Part Two)
Part One No explanation of origins succeeds at explaining how everything got here, including how people got here, except for the biblical one. And the biblical one makes sense, because it fits everything that we see. Evidence also confirms the Bible. An explosion turning into terrific, complicated design, either physical or biological, just can’t be […]
The Purposeful Contortion and Confusion of End Time Truth
A primary way Satan keeps people deluded about life and the world is by his contortion and confusion of either origin or end time truth. God reveals with pristine clarity the beginning and ending of everything. Both of these revelations are vital for faith and practice. Satan wants people deceived on how they got here […]
