All of the jaw-dropping imagery you have seen this week of the wildfires tearing through Los Angeles is precisely how you should picture the Tribulation. I’m reminded of the first Trumpet Judgment. Rev 8:7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and... Continue Reading →
3 Functions of The Kinsman Redeemer
The kinsman-redeemer is a male Jewish relative who, according to various laws of the Pentateuch, had the privilege (or responsibility) to act on behalf of a relative who was in trouble, in danger, or in need. He is one who delivers or rescues (Genesis 48:16; Exodus 6:6) or redeems property or person (Leviticus 27:9–25, 25:47–55).He... Continue Reading →

The Great White Throne Judgment
Isa 66:23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD.

Think On These Things
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. – Philippians 4:8 In the closing of the Book of Philippians is...

Armageddon & The Second Coming
On Tuesday, we covered the final seven bowl judgments. Let’s go back to the sixth judgment in Rev 16:12 And the sixth angel pouring his vial on the great river Euphrates; the water dried up, so that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. This sixth angel pours his vial upon... Continue Reading →
Universal Forgiveness
Do people go to Hell with their sins forgiven? Two quick comments: I would not break fellowship with saints who hold that view, even though I strongly disagree. I’ve also seen some extremely disgraceful behavior over this debate. In some cases, I think awful behavior merits being marked and avoided (Rom. 16:17), because they're offences... Continue Reading →
People Are People
One of the realities that is often so hard for people to fathom is that each and every person in the world is, in fact, an individual. Individual habits, individual appearances, individual diets, even individual preferences of clothing and automobiles. There are no two people alike - even identical twins! There is no single physical... Continue Reading →
Happy Independence Day
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. - Galatians 5:1 (KJV) i wanted to take a moment to wish everyone a Happy Independence Day.

Portrait of the Antichrist
The word “antichrist,” which is only used by John (1 Jn. 2:18, 2:22, 4:3, & 2 Jn. 1:7), is one who is opposed to Christ, one who is against Christ, one who is the antithesis of everything that Christ is, and he is also one who denies Christ and the Father (1 Jn. 2:22). I... Continue Reading →
PB&J
Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food. - Job 23:12. I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. When the going gets tough (or not) a peanut butter and jelly sandwich satisfies! There is nothing flashy, or outlandish about... Continue Reading →
A New Tank?
Sometimes I don't know exactly what I’m going to write about until I actually sit at my desk, in front of my computer. In this case I’m at my seldom used desk at our actual church building. This is a rare event, indeed! With the advent of the automobile, and electronic communications the church office... Continue Reading →
Where Two Or Three Are Gathered…
For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. (Matthew 18:20) One of the most abused Scriptures, out of many, is Matthew 18:20. This verse is used so often as a verse that proves that the Holy Spirit is present “when two or three are... Continue Reading →
Ye Have the Poor With You Always
And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me. For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always. - Mark 14:6-7 KJV One of the biggest trends happening in the church is... Continue Reading →
Grace, Love, & Forgiveness
I was moved by a story I came across the other day via Faithwire about Shelby Houston, the teenage daughter of a police officer who died in the line of duty. Her father’s name was Richard Houston. He was a 21-year veteran of the Mesquite Police Department. He was shot and killed responding to a... Continue Reading →
Justification By Faith: Looking At The Evidence
Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. [28] Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. [29] Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the... Continue Reading →
