Are We The Ones?

Prophecy, especially prophecy concerning the “end times,” is a popular subject these days. A century ago, that was not the case. In fact, many of the great Christian thinkers, evangelists, pastors, and religious leaders gave little thought to the cryptic Biblical prophecies concerning the end of days. Some even went so far as to discount them as nothing more than Biblical symbolism. So why is the subject so popular today? One word: Israel. You see, none of the prophecies concerning

The Hatred of an Innocent People

Simply put, the world hates Israel. It can’t help itself. It does so out of instinct. It hates Israel because it hates God. And God knew that would happen, that’s why He offered a promise of protection for His people. He said that He would bless those who blessed His people and curse those who cursed them. There’s no other logical reason why Israel should be the pariah nation it is. It is a pro-American, Western-style, capitalist democracy. It has

Today’s “Laodicean Church”

Paul famously described these days in his second letter to Timothy. He says in part, “There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive… ungrateful, unholy… without self-control… treacherous… conceited… lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God….” I won’t go on, but, believe me, it’s a letter-perfect description of present day America. You can read it for yourself at 2 Timothy 3:1-5 (NIV). The second passage is

Moore’s Law and Scripture

Moore’s Law says that computer capacity doubles every 18 months. That’s why your laptop is obsolete by the time you figure it out! Columbus sailed to the new world 1,500 years after the Apostle Paul made his Mediterranean journey. Both sailed on wooden ships with sails. In fact, men traveled in wooden sailing ships until the end of the 19th century. One hundred years later, those same weeks-long trips take a few hours by air. 1,900 years from Paul’s ship

The God Particle, Marriage, and Chick-fil-A

The God Particle Part 1 The Bible says that there is an active, binding force that literally holds all the matter of the universe together. It identifies that force as the Word of God. A literal translation of Hebrews 11:3 says, “By faith we understand that the universe was formed by the (spoken) Word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible.” In Colossians 1:15-17, Paul also identifies that binding force: “He

23-Year Deal Connects China and Saudi Arabia

Middle East news sources are now reporting about a deal between Saudi Arabia and China that has been in the works since January. In fact, a member of the Saudi royal family was brought out of retirement to negotiate it. Prince Bandar, the former longtime Saudi ambassador to the United States, has tentatively worked out an agreement with the Chinese. The Saudis want to purchase off-the-shelf nuclear missiles from China. The Dong Feng 21 medium-range ballistic missiles will carry a

Ezeliel’s Prophetic Enigma

You can’t miss it. The signs are everywhere. Interest in the future is growing… Nostradamus, the Mayan calendar, St. Malachy, Edgar Cayce, 2012. Now that we have arrived at that dreaded year, people everywhere feel that something is about to happen. They’re nervous and they’re searching for answers. In the last part of the 20th century and into the 21st, it seems an entire industry sprang up to publish the “amazing” prophecies of Nostradamus. Amazing? At best, his quatrains are

Replacement Theology

Whether you call it ‘Preterism’ or ‘Dominionism’ matters not. The underlying dogma is “Replacement Theology.” And it espouses just what its name implies: replacement. It presumes to replace the truth of God’s irrevocable oath and promises to Abraham and his descendants with an untruth eked out of thin air by doctrinaires who are nothing more than “alchemists of allegory.” I call them that because they insist that the promises made to Israel are nothing more than allegory. And they use

The Rebirth of Israel in 1948

In 606 B.C. Israel (Judah) was taken into captivity by Babylon for exactly 70 years. Therefore, the end of the captivity, according to the Bible and other historical sources – including Flavius Josephus, a first-century Romano-Jewish historian – occurred in the month of Nisan in the spring of 536 B.C. This is the starting point of the fulfillment of one of the most amazing prophecies in all of history! The Prophecy Regarding the Siege of Israel (Ezekiel 4:1-8 ESV) “And

Prophecy Fulfilled: The Ten

True to Bible prophecy, Russia has risen from the ashes of the fallen Soviet Union. Likewise, the European Union, though currently gripped in the throes of economic upheaval, is still moving forward to solidify its role in the final days of this Age. In fact, on July 1, 2011, a major milestone was quietly passed in the evolution of that body. Remember Daniel’s interpretation of King Nebuchadnezzar’s dream of an image constructed of various metals? Remember his description of the
