Is it the End of the World?

“Only those who are unfamiliar with the statements of the Bible itself will be impressed by the oft-repeated claim of the critics that their theory regarding prophecy is based on a careful, objective, and scientific study of the biblical data.” (Oswald T. Allis, The Unity of Isaiah) It is striking that as the teaching of…

Visiting a church today, I was dismayed to hear the pastor minimize the importance of Bible prophecy. His sermon was rolling along wonderfully, when he detoured and spent several minutes discussing the spiritual “immaturity” of those who study (or teach) Bible prophecy. How rude and arrogant. He cited the usual suspects, those irresponsible teachers from…

One of my favorite moments from the great documentary, The Last Waltz, is when the Band’s magnificent guitarist and songwriter, Robbie Robertson, leans into a microphone and smiles at the excited crowd: “Still there, huh?” The audience endured that night, waiting for the marathon concert that would find its place in history. I was reminded…

For those who believe Bible prophecy is valid—and for those who wonder—a huge sign of the end is apostasy in the Church. That is, the majority of the visible Church will move away from the faith. That has been going on for some time. There are plenty of Christian leaders today who are moving in…

While looking at the website of my good friend, Carl Kerby (www.rforh.com), I came across an amazing and sad statistic: every day on this planet, almost 155,000 people die. Think about that for a second. Each of the 155,000 is a real person, with real experiences, a soul, family, etc. Although the numbers overwhelm us,…

Tim Tebow, it could be argued, was the greatest college quarterback of all time. With a Heisman Trophy and two national championships, he has more hardware and jewelry than any other quarterback. The truly mind-boggling thing is, he could have won another championship and another Heisman. When he was preparing to enter the NFL draft,…

Because I know a lot of American Jews and a lot of Israels—along with my own pro Israel Christian community—I know that Israel is quite a different country than that presented by the media. I wrote recently about the extraordinary work being done by Untold News (www.untoldnews.org). There is another group contributing greatly to the…

“There is none to guide her among all the sons whom she hath brought forth; neither is there any that taketh her by the hand of all the sons that she hath brought up.” (Isaiah 51:18) The prophet Isaiah recorded some of the greatest prophecies in history. Some are more obscure than others. In the…

Critics of the Jewish state often bear false witness by claiming that Israel is an apartheid state. Among the charges is that religious freedom is not available to people other than Jews. This is glaringly false and in fact, before Israel took control of the Old City in 1967, Jews and Christians were severely restricted…
