Did God really create over billions of years?

People often challenge biblical (young-earth) creationists with comments along the lines of, “I don’t believe evolution, but couldn’t God have taken billions of years to create?” Some claim that an emphasis on six literal days, 6,000 years ago even keeps people away from the faith, so why do we focus on something that is not a salvation issue? It is not the timescale in and of itself that is the important issue, but whether the Bible actually means what it

What Do You Believe?

Armageddon

Just over two months ago, the world watched as the United States opened its embassy in the city of Jerusalem. President Donald Trump was not only fulfilling a campaign promise, but he was, according to him, simply recognizing reality. Jerusalem is and has always been the capital of Israel. […] The ancient Bible prophets foretold that Jerusalem will become the focal point of the world. It is. We know the nations of the world will one day gather against it.

What is going on with the weather?

The heat kills 54 in southern Quebec. Temperatures in northern Siberia soar 40 degrees above normal. Africa records the highest temperature ever verified on that continent. What is going on with the weather? Climate vs Weather Whatever it is, the global warming crowd is thrilled. They see it as affirmation of their religion: the High Church of Climate Change. But they obscure two distinctions. First, contrary to what the mainstream media and the politically correct crowd would have you believe, almost

2017 Prophetic Year in Review

When Jesus was describing conditions just previous to the end of this Age, He said “you will hear of wars and rumors of war.” (Matthew 24:6) In a broad sense, that’s true of all years. But 2017 was different. It was rife with rumors of warfare at a level perhaps never seen on earth before. Two nations figured prominently in those threats. One or both of them may one day make up part of an alliance known in Biblical prophecy

Prophecy Fulfillment Increasing

For sixty years, I’ve been teaching about things we now see every day. I’m not special. The Bible is my insight and revelation. As I study, I ask the Holy Spirit to illuminate His word. You can do the same thing. When I began teaching about Bible prophecy, news stories coinciding with and confirming prophecy came along every few months. Eventually, that became every few weeks. Then every few days. In the last few months, it has been relentless. Newscasts

UNESCO resolution denies Israel’s historic connection to the Temple Mount

Unbelievable! As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu observed, “To say Israel has no connection to the Temple Mount and the Western Wall is like saying that China has no connection to the Great Wall of China or that Egypt has no connection to the Pyramids!” It appears obvious that UNESCO did this to appease Muslim extremists. In fact, UNESCO executive board members France, Greece, Italy, Spain, and Sweden all voted to “abstain.” Have they no courage? No respect for history and

Changes of Allegiances & Alliances

In a move that stunned some analysts and even members of Congress, Russia, Iran, Syria, and Iraq announced they would form an intelligence-sharing unit headquartered in Baghdad. In 2003, the United States went to war in Iraq to stop Saddam Hussein from building, acquiring, and using weapons of mass destruction. After winning the war, we stayed and helped rebuild Iraq at a cost of hundreds of billions of dollars, and many U.S. lives. Out of that sacrifice, Iraq gained a

Israel Prime Minister speaks Biblical Truth about nations opposing Israel

Last week, the United Nations General Assembly convened. As usual, the heads of state from across the world made the pilgrimage to New York to appear before the delegates and speak their minds. Vladimir Putin defended Russia’s entrance into the Middle East and chided the U.S. and the West for arming ISIS and al-Qaeda, thus causing the mess in that region. Mahmoud Abbas (though he is not a head of state since the West Bank is not a state) announced

A Warning to Those Who Abandon Israel

Throughout Scripture and history, there have been severe consequences for the lack of recognizing the importance of Israel, God’s chosen people and nation. Here is what Greg Laurie says in his book “Signs of the Times” : Looking into the future of the Jewish race, God told the Patriarch Abraham, “I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse those who curse you.” And so it has been through history. Every nation that has risen up to strike
