We always have to keep in mind the time each book of the Bible was written so that we do not become confused. Taking the scriptures out of their proper time causes the scriptures to become anachronistic, and brings confusion. Much of the present tense and future tense verbs and adjectives Jesus and the Apostles …
As a Roaring Lion
8Be sober, vigilant, because your opponent the devil, as a roaring lion, doth walk about, seeking whom he may swallow up, 9 whom resist, stedfast in the faith, having known the same sufferings to your brotherhood in the world to be accomplished. (1 Pet. 5:8-9, YLT) Translated more correctly in the Complete Jewish Bible - …
The Revealing of the Sons of God
Whenever the scriptures seem confusing, or are hard to understand we need to stop and look at our underlying assumptions and beliefs. When we bring our preconceived ideas, or learned perspectives to the study of God’s word, then we color God’s meaning with our thoughts. This will always leave us struggling to learn God’s meaning …
Coming In The Clouds – Judgment
I have spoken of this in other posts, but here I want to concentrate solely on this concept as many people are still expecting to literally see God coming in the clouds. God speaks in parallels at times. He will mention one thing, and in the very next part of the verse say it differently …
The New Jerusalem – The New Heaven & Earth Covenant
The prophesies from the Old Testament of the new covenant and the new Jerusalem are being falsely taught as literal. Many have been taught to believe that the words “forever,” and “no more” apply to a land based, earthly nation state of Israel. Those teaching these prophesies to be a literal rebuilding of the city …

Testing The Spirits – Part VI (c): Demons, Devils, & Idols
A question has been asked that requires more discussion about the demoniacs of Matt. 8:28-34, and so we continue from Part VI (b). “28And he having come to the other side, to the region of the Gergesenes, there met him two demoniacs, coming forth out of the tombs, very fierce, so that no one was …

Testing The Spirits – Part VI (b): Demons, Devils, Idols
In the previous Part VI (a), we searched through the Old Testament scriptures for the meanings of the words “demon” and “devil” as God had originally used them and found that they meant idols, and “no-gods.” They were the things that men made with their own hands from their evil imaginations. As evil comes from …

Testing The Spirits – Part VI (a): Demons, Devils, & Idols
Just as in all the other posts at this blog, I have been stressing the need to return to what God has said in His word. We have all been subjected to much error of the teachings of men from the pulpits of the churches, and we are discovering that many of those teachings do …

Hades Is No More
I have gone over this before in parts in several other posts, especially in the posts The Burning of Jerusalem, and The Hadean Death; and The Gathering of The Elect. But I want to drill down a little more on the prison of Hades as many people are still not understanding that there is no …
Testing the Spirits – Part V (c): Exploring the Holy Spirit
Continuing on from part (b) of this Part V, where we established that the prophesy of Joel for the pouring forth of the Holy Spirit in the “last days” was affirmed by Peter on the day of Pentecost to be what the people were seeing and hearing in about 30-31 AD, then we must know …

Testing the Spirits – Part V (b): Exploring the Holy Spirit
The prophets and messengers of God spoke His words as provided by His Holy Spirit. “The Spirit where he willeth doth blow…” Remembering that the word “spirit” is Strong's Gr. 4151, "pneuma" and means wind, or breath, then God’s Spirit is God’s breath, or words.(1) In Part I of this series we saw that we …

Testing the Spirits – Part V (a): Exploring the Holy Spirit
“Turn back at my reproof, lo, I pour forth to you my spirit, I make known my words with you.” (Prov. 1:23, YLT) God’s poetry defines his synonyms and metaphors. They are usually couplets having two parts or lines. The first line or half of the couplet is repeated in different words in the second …

Testing the Spirits – Part IV (b) : Slandering Angels
Picking up where we left off in part (a) of this Part IV we showed that the Hebrew word “satan” was not properly translated but simply transliterated as though it were a proper noun, or name. The word “satan” simply means adversary. The translators made an assumption based upon their beliefs. It is not a …

Testing The Spirits – Part IV(a): Slandering Angels
(I am borrowing this title from a blog post I read years ago, and which I cannot now find, as I consider it the best description I ever heard about the false teachings and the mythology of fallen angels.) In Part I of this series we saw how the spirits we are to test are …

Testing The Spirits – Part III: Daniel’s Lot
Part I of this series showed that the spirits we are to test are the ideas, words, and teachings of men. Part II of this series showed that the Bible never teaches the idea of an end of ALL time, nor an end of the world, cosmos destroying event. That idea is false, and does …

Testing the Spirits – Part II: The End
Part I of this series defined the spirits we are to test as the words of men, the teachings and doctrines of men. The only way to do this is to stand them against the word of God. The testing and proving process involves carefully examining God's words. As many of the English (and other) …
Testing the Spirits – Part I: What Spirits?
Whenever we have been taught to believe an idea or concept that most people accept as truth, but without testing it, without looking at that concept on its merits, then we are not doing what God told us to do. "1Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because …

Christ’s Passover
" cleanse out, therefore, the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, according as ye are unleavened, for also our passover for us was sacrificed -- Christ," (1 Cor. 5:7, YLT) Many people are missing the sweet and precious significance of Jesus Christ being the "Lamb slain from the foundation of the world" (Rev. …
Our Son
The angels came and took our beloved son Brian home tonight, October 8, 2021 at 5:17 pm. In our sorrow and grief we also rejoice for he was covered by the blood of the lamb, and by Christ's passover. Psalms 116:15, "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints."
Is The Earth Hanging Upon Nothing?
I believe we have greatly misunderstood God's word in many areas because of our current, traditional education system. The teachings today have implanted many pictures in our minds which are problematic when comparing to God's word; and which we then try to force upon God's word. One example of how our schooled or learned biases …
Yom Kippur – The Day of Atonement
Yom Kippur was the second fall feast in Israel called the Day of Atonement, and the Day of Verdict. In the fall harvest festal timeline God commanded three feasts: 1st day of the 7th month (Tishri) - Yom Teruah - Feast of Trumpets - also called Yom Hadin, Day of Judgment (Lev. 23:23-25) 10th day …
Ezekiel in Revelation- Part VIII: On The Mountains of Israel
In Parts V - VII of this series we saw that the specific parameters God set in the prophesy of Gog of Magog in chapters 38-39 limited the time, the geographical locations, and the object of the battle to Judea and Jerusalem of the first century AD. With those set limits there could be only …

Ezekiel in Revelation – Part VII: Who was Gog?
God set parameters for both the time period and the geographic location for the battle of Gog of Magog in Ezekiel 38-39, and as referenced in the final battle of Rev. 20. God set the purpose for this battle, which was the 2nd destruction of Jerusalem, "against My land" (Ezek. 38:16). So, we can know …

Ezekiel in Revelation – Part V: The Time of Gog of Magog
With some expectation of stepping on toes, we approach a prophesy that is greatly contested and misunderstood, and has confused many commentators for centuries - the battle of Gog of Magog. According to Jewish belief, the battle of the prophesy of Ezekiel 38, 39 will precipitate the Messianic redemption - Excerpt from "The Battle of …

Ezekiel in Revelation – Part III: Jerusalem, the Vine Tree and the Winepress
The parallels of God's word define His metaphors and symbols. One thing is compared to another thing, and the symbol is defined. In Ezekiel chap. 15, God compared the people of Jerusalem to the vine tree in the forest. 6 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, …

Ezekiel in Revelation – Part II: Sodom & Gomorrah
The judgment carried out against Sodom & Gomorrah for the sins of the people was literally and actually fire and brimstone. Abraham bargained with YHWH that if He found even ten (10) people who were righteous, YHWH agreed He would not destroy the cities. "And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and …

Ezekiel in Revelation- Part I: Overview Comparison
The prophet Ezekiel was YHWH's messenger (angel) to the Israelite in captivity in Babylon.

Crossing Over
Strong's 5674 "abar", alienate. The definition: to pass over, through, or by, pass on; most prominently to cross over a stream or land border, to transverse, emigrate; as well as to pass away, cease to exist. (1) It is such a joy to connect the dots in YHVH's word. While researching the first use of …
When Does “You” Mean “Me”?
When we read the Bible and come across the personal pronoun "you", does it always apply to us? Does every direction Jesus spoke to His disciples almost 2,000 years ago also apply to us when we read it in our generation, in our day and time? "3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is …
Which Salvation Arrived in AD 70? Heavenly or Physical Salvation?
" So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation." (Heb. 9:28, KJV) The English word chosen in Heb. 9:28 as "save" or "salvation" is the Greek word "σωτηρία" or "soteria" and it means "deliverance, salvation". It …

A Day Is AS a Thousand Years
"And this one thing let not be unobserved by you, beloved, that one day with the Lord [is] as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day;" (2 Pet. 3:8, YLT) This verse has been taken out of context and has been used to express the belief in a timing mechanism for God's …
The Thief On The Cross
How is it that we are so easily trapped by assumptions? I have read a few attempts at an answer to those who deny the need for immersion (baptism) for salvation by appealing to the thief on the cross who asked Christ to remember him (Luke 23: 33-43). The usual answers come about half of …
The Lake of Fire
Something to ponder - Is the lake of fire literally speaking of a place, or is it a symbolic image of a process? "And the sight of the glory of the Lord was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel." (Ex. 24:17, KJV) "For the …
The First Audience Perspective of Romans 13
A teacher and brother in Christ stated a few months ago that the first century AD was long past and that we did not have to consider it any longer; that it was finished. I was so very astounded by his statement, in light of the fact that it was the first century AD - …

The Fig Tree and The Mountain
God created trees to be fruit bearing. Some give seeds, and nuts. Some give juicy fruits. Some have leaves that are useful for healing, and herbal remedies. Some of the nuts and seeds are useful for oils. A fruitful tree is life giving, good for food. A tree that is not fruitful is often cut …
The Signs of The Feasts – Part III: The Thief In The Night
Part I of this series on the Signs of the Feasts discussed the meaning of the Hebrew idiom / phrase "Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord" and found that this was associated with the three pilgrimage feasts for Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles; and that by using that phrase Christ had …

The Signs of The Feasts – Part I: Christ Told the Pharisees The Time of His Return
Much of the Christian world in the west knows very little of the ancient Hebrew customs, culture, and their idioms.

This teaching could not be more wrong because the New Testament …

Frequent Mistakes – Part VII: The Translation of Enoch & Elijah
Does John 3:13 contradict OT scripture for Enoch and Elijah's translation into heaven? "And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven." (John 3:13, KJV) This question pops up frequently. John 3:13 only becomes confusing because of our perspective when …

Frequent Mistakes – Part VI: The End of The World, or….???
The commonly held belief of the prophesy of 2 Peter 3:5-13 is a very touchy subject with many people who are reading these scriptures literally. But, they are not balancing them with the entirety of the scriptures. They focus on these verses and lift them completely out of the Bible to stand alone as the …

Psa. 18:2, "The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;..." (KJV) I have opined before of those who insist that all of the Bible must be taken literally. Surely it is evident that the poetry used in Psalms 18:2 is a literary device to express the idea of God's strength, shelter, and …

Frequent Mistakes – Part IV: Where Was “All The World”?
When it comes to reading the Bible, the western English speaking world is at a great disadvantage. We have been trained to take things at face value, and to be very literal minded. But, the peoples of the Eastern world have a much different mindset, and are very familiar with poetical language, metaphorical prophesy, and …

Frequent Mistakes – Part III: The Last Day
On this last day of the year 2017 it seems appropriate to speak of the last day as defined in the scriptures. If we begin with a faulty premise, then all of our conclusions will be wrong. Many people have been taught to believe that "the end" referenced in the Bible was speaking of the …
Frequent Mistakes – Part II: Rev. 5:6, The Ascension of Christ
Many people fail to link the prophesy of Christ's ascension in Daniel with the vision of Christ before God's throne in Rev. 5:6 as the same event. That they are the same confirms the contemporary nature of Revelation's prophesy to the first century A.D Christians. Acts 1:9, " And when he had spoken these things, while …

Frequent Mistakes – Part I: Rev. 13:3 The Wounded Head
One frequent claim against Revelation having already been fulfilled is that Nero as the beast died and therefore could not be the beast that was revived. We don't know Roman history very well. Many people make the mistake of assuming that the wounded head of the beast revived. But, the wounded head, though one of …

The Resurrection in Three Parts
The English word "resurrection" does not appear in the Old Testament of the King James Version of the Bible, though the concept does. In the New Testament of the KJV the Greek meaning for "resurrection" is simply a raising up (Strong's Greek 386 - "anastasis"). For the purposes of this essay we will use the …
The Days of His Visitation

The Gathering of The Elect
Matt. 24:29-31 - in the King James Version - 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of …
The Promised Land: Between the Cross and the Kingdom
The exodus of the children of Israel from Egypt (late to mid- 15th century BC) is recognized by most students of the Bible to parallel the cross of Christ in the new covenant. We recognize that the exodus from the slavery and bondage to a sinful and idolatrous nation was the type / foreshadow of …

Revelation: The Four Corners of The Earth
When God was angry with a people or nation, He would send a prophet to warn them to repent before He would send judgment upon them. The language of prophesy contained certain elements and structure that repeated no matter which nation or country the prophet was sent to warn. Let's examine some of these elements. …
The End of The World: The Jonah & The Whale Syndrome
I laugh each time I read the account of Jonah and his warning to Nineveh. It is funny when we can look from a safe distance back in time, and are removed from the immediate circumstances. But, Jonah had very real feelings about what God had told him to do, and most of us today …

Daniel and The End Times

The Signs of Revelation – Part VIII: The New Heavens and New Earth
God's language of prophesy is a challenge because it is a majestic and grand metaphor, a hugely poetical style. The metaphors and poetry which He used were to provide the sovereign and supreme import, the full vision and implications of what became the actual or literal outcome. The judgment was pronounced from heaven above in …

The Signs of Revelation – Part VII: The Plagues of Egypt
Psa. 46:8, "Come, behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth." (KJV) Looking at Revelation from the Old Testament (OT) is both enlightening and reaffirming. God's word is true and His judgments are righteous (Psa. 19:9; 33:5; 119:137, 160). If sometimes in our study we do not understand why …

The first five parts of this series have discussed in some detail the signs and symbols found within the prophesy of John, the Revelation of Christ.

The Signs of Revelation – Part V: The Animal Symbols of the Battle
We have been decoding some of the signs and symbols of the prophesy of Revelation, so that we can better understand the meanings of the book. The code is from the Old Testament (OT), and we are using scripture to interpret scripture, as only God can interpret His word. (Dan. 2:18-22) Once we recognize the …

Signs of Revelation – Part IV: Symbols of the Throne Scene Chap. 4 – 5
This series on the book of Revelation is defining the prophesy by looking into the source code. The source code for Revelation, and all of the New Testament (NT), is the Old Testament (OT). The NT is the OT revealed! By decoding the component pieces of the prophesy we can better understand and identify the …

The Signs of Revelation – Part III: Codes of the Colors and Numbers
Remembering that the New Testament (NT) is the Old Testament (OT) revealed, we continue the theme from Parts I and II of this series, that we must look to the OT for the signs and original meanings in Revelation. The code of Revelation is the OT. Part II of this series discussed the nature symbols …

The Signs of Revelation – Part II: Codes and Symbols of Nature
Part I of this series established the background and time period of Revelation as the first century A.D., the generation which Christ said would not pass until all was fulfilled. (Matt. 22:36, 24:34) Therefore, the events of Revelation "which must shortly come to pass" and which were "at hand" all occurred in that same century …

The Signs of Revelation – Part I: The Time of His Coming
The book of Revelation is not a chronological account of the second appearance of Christ.

This happens several times to encompass the visions of Christ coronation, then the great tribulation and the battle between …

Did Christ Lie to His Disciples?
We have a perspective problem. Many people think nothing of taking the words that Christ spoke to His disciples in the first century AD out of time and place, and making them applicable to some future event and generation. Matt. 10:23, "... Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son …
God’s Definitions – Part II: The House of God
Under the old covenant established in the exodus wilderness between God and the house of Israel, the Israelites built a tabernacle where the priests could enter under prescribed conditions to meet with God, to offer sacrifices for the sins of the people, and to minister unto God. This tabernacle was built of curtains, animal skins, …

God’s Definitions – Part I: The House of Israel

Is A Woman Commanded to Keep Silent in the Church?
We struggle with many left over concepts that the Protestant Reformation brought along with them out of the Catholic church. Martin Luther's education within the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) still carried the lessons he had been taught from their priests. One of these lessons is the misunderstanding about 1 Cor. 14:26-30: "26How is it then, …

Do You Need To Be Baptized To Be Saved?
Gen. 15:6, speaking of Abram, " And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for righteousness." Some people read the statements from the Old Testament about Abram's belief in God being reckoned unto him for righteousness, and use it as an example for us today. However, they are failing to consider …
Giants: Rephaim, Zamzummim, Emim, Amorite, Anakim, Nephilim, Zuzim
It appears that the giants were called by many names, sometimes by the name of the lands they occupied, and other times by their reputation. So, let's take a closer look at the giants of old. For the most part, the references are from Young's Literal Translation as the generic translation of the King James …

The Book of Enoch – Fable or True
There are many bits and pieces, many supposed parts and chapters that comprise the Book of Enoch that is passing around today.

Micah’s Prophesy – No More War?
The Western mindset tends to very literal interpretation of the Bible, believing the words of the prophets to be descriptive of physical reality. But, the Bible was written in the Eastern metaphorical, poetical style where physical things we can see represent spiritual things we cannot see. For instance, according to Clarke's commentary, Micah 2:6 literally …
The Zionist Lie of “These Last Days”, or “How Is It That You Do Not Discern This Time?”
Luke 12:56, "Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?" Jesus spoke these words approx. 30 -33 A.D, and were recorded by Luke approx. 60 - 62 A.D. 2 Tim. 3:1, "This know also, that in the last …
The Burning of Jerusalem, and the Hadean Death
Christ tells the chief priests and elders of the temple a parable in Matt. 22:1-14: "1And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, 2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, 3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden …

The Thousand Year Reign of Revelation 20 – Is It Yet Future?
The numbers found in the Bible have both literal and symbolic meanings. The context, or the subject matter of the scripture tells us when the numbers recorded in the scripture are literal, and when they are figurative, or symbolic. For instance, the following scriptures all have a literal numeric value: Ex. 38:25, "And the silver …

The One True GOD – But, there are two of them! Allah or Yahweh?
Christians follow the scriptures of the Bible as given by Yahweh, the Great I Am, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (renamed Israel), and of His uniquely begotten son, the Christ, the promised seed of Abraham, the Messiah (Jesus).

The Beast of Revelation
There exists so much evidence of the first century prophecy of Revelation that it is hard to keep narratives brief, and I am unable to make this a short post. I ask that you bear with me, as I have had a difficult time limiting the information. The previous post, The Whore of Babylon, presented …
The Whore of Babylon
The book of Revelation is difficult to understand, and is much twisted and misused in our day, as many Christians today are not well studied in the secular histories of either Israel or Rome, and without that knowledge it can be very hard to grasp all of the clues. But, there are internal evidences in …
Heaven & Earth Have Passed Away
Many Christians are disadvantaged in that we are not well grounded in the Old Testament scriptures. We have been taught for so many generations that as we are now under the new covenant of Christ, that the old covenant is then no longer relevant. This leads many to assume that there is no need to …
When Jesus Called Peter “Satan”!
Some readers may believe I have been harsh or hateful in recent posts referring to the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) as being of Satan. But, this is exactly what our Lord and Savior did when He called Peter "Satan". In the post "Liars & Murderers ... God Says They Are The Same" (see the post …
Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part VI; The Blasphemy Against the Holy Spirit
The Roman Catholic Church is teaching its members that they wrote the Bible. This is a lie against the Holy Spirit! This teaching contradicts the Scriptures.

Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part 5; The Blasphemy of the Priesthood
The wickedness and evil of the concepts of priests and an earthly priesthood are so abominable that my soul cringes to even discuss these creations of the Roman Catholic Church. The priests of the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) are conceptions of ungodly men, who determined that Christ was not enough, that His sacrifice was not …

Passover, the Crucifixion, & the Lord’s Day; or Did Constantine Change the Day of Worship?
There is some confusion regarding the day that Jesus was crucified during the Passover week, and the actual day He was resurrected. The confusion is a matter of a language barrier between English perception and the Greek of the New Testament which was customarily understood in the first century A.D. We need to study very …
Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part IV; Augustine’s Lie of Original Sin, and the Practice of Infant Baptism
What a web the Roman Catholic Church has weaved! Each error of the Roman Catholic Church builds upon the previous error, promoting even more error to try to solve a problem the previous error created. The concept of original sin is one of the most heinous invented by the Roman Catholics, because of the further …
Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part III; Baptism is NOT Sprinkling
Once upon a time everyone knew that immersion in water was required to be added to the body of Christ, to be saved! Even the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) knew it! Jesus himself gave us the example when He went to his second cousin, John the "Baptist", son of Zacharias, to be "baptized". (Matt. 3: …

Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part II; Peter is Not THE Rock of the church
In Part I of this series we examined the Catholic lie that Peter and Paul founded the church at Rome. This next lie, that Peter is the rock upon which the church is built, is based upon the views of individual men, bishops and priests, and their writings within the Catholic Church; which the Catholic …

Lies of the Roman Catholic Church – Part I; The Pope Has No Apostolic Authority
Once upon a time, in the first century A.D., there were Christians who assembled to worship the Lord in a pagan and idolatrous place called Rome. The congregations of these early Christians were trying to follow what they had been taught by others who knew of Christ, and appear to have been meeting in the …

Nephilim… Reprise: And The Sons of God
Some people took exception to my previous post, “Nephilim.. Fallen Ones?”, and are still struggling with the uses of the Hebrew word that has been transliterated in some Bible versions in Genesis 6:4. So, let’s take a second look at the subject matter in a slightly different way. Both men and angels are created by …
Nephilim… Fallen Ones ?
Gen. 6: 1-7, "And it cometh to pass that mankind have begun to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters have been born to them, 2 and sons of God see the daughters of men that they [are] fair, and they take to themselves women of all whom they have chosen. 3 And Jehovah saith, …
Behold, I Thought…..
Seems there are a lot of different beliefs about what God’s word says. Some people say, I believe this, others believe that. They don’t back it up with scripture. They can’t cite a scripture to support what they believe. They just believe something because they want to believe it. Their belief seems right to their …
It’s Not The End of The World – Part X; And Then Shall The End Come
This series of studies has analyzed God’s word to see what the scriptures really say about our Lord and Savior‘s “second” coming.

Liars & Murderers – God Says They Are The Same!
I am astounded daily by all the lies that surround us. So many people have been convinced that lying is acceptable for one reason or another. The Jews and the Jesuits, and the Islams and Muslims believe that they are allowed or even commanded to lie to the "infidels". Police and others in authority have …

It’s Not The End of The World – Part VII; The Land Promises & Other Questions
We have seen from parts I -VI of this study that the coming of the Lord was always used in scripture as a day of judgment; that the day of judgment spoken of in the New Testament was that coming upon Israel, Rome, and the surrounding nations culminating with the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. …

It’s Not The End of The World, – Part VI; The Zionist & Jesuit Deceit
We have been examining the internal evidences for the time of the second appearance of the Lord, and have found that, if viewed in their context, the scriptures clearly show that Jesus was manifested and was sacrificed in "these last days", during the first century A.D. As an application of basic algebra shows that if …

This study is offered in order to counter the hugely distorted and twisted interpretations offered today of the book of Revelation, which are being promoted to deceive as many as possible for a political agenda sown by the Zionist cabal, and their agents, either wittingly or unwittingly, for an “end of the world” scenario.

Deceit and lies fill the earth, and many people are swayed by every moving wind to believe some very preposterous theories regarding the book of Revelation and the "end of the world". There is a political agenda deliberately promoting fear that is associated with these lies, which needs to be confronted and destroyed. …
It’s Not The End of The World – Part III; Judgment Language in the Old Testament
The Old Testament is our school master, bringing us to an understanding of God’s Law, His expectations, His standards, and His methods, and His nature. God even has a language of figurative metaphors which He uses in prophesy and judgment. The books of Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel are rife with God’s judgment language. Every time …

It’s Not The End of The World – Part II; Time Texts of the New Testament
There is such fear expressed all over the internet and in many books about the return of the Lord, the Apocalypse and Armageddon, and the end the world. Many dates have been predicted for Christs' return that always come and go without result. Instead of questioning their basic understanding of God's word, the false prophets …

It’s Not The End of The World – Part I; What does the Bible really say about “these last days”?
We are in a great deal of turmoil today because of a misreading of the Scriptures. The book of Revelation cannot be understood without also understanding the Old Testament.
