In Matthew 24 we find Jesus and His disciples exiting the Temple in Jerusalem.  The disciples draw His attention to the structure’s magnificence.  He warns them of what would eventually happen to the Temple and the city in which it stood.  They understand that He is referring to the last days of the world as […]

I once watched a robbery take place (on t.v.) in which a young man walked into a cafe, pulled a gun and made everyone leave, including the manager so that he could get the money out of the cash register.  What he did not realize was that the manager had taken the door key with […]

Mankind’s first sin was idolatry–exercising the power of self-determination.  Satan tempted Adam and Eve with a thought (“a little leaven”).  All was going well in Eden until Eve paused for a chat with the “Serpent” who convinced her that she and Adam had the power of choice, which was true.  Man always has the power […]

Would I drive 65 in a 60 if it’s 2:00 a.m?  In other words, do I obey the law as God commands me to do when I KNOW I CAN GET AWAY WITH BREAKING IT?  After all, it’s only 5 mph over the limit; and there’s not a soul in sight.  And besides, I’m in […]

“Obedience is obedience.  My attitude doesn’t matter as long as I obey Him,” is a common attitude found within professing Christendom.  Compulsory obedience is very common within the human race.  The fact of the matter is that such obedience places one on the same level as Satan who must obey God.  Recall that when God […]

Joshua’s words to Israel telling them to choose between the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob or Satan created a positive response on the part of the Israelites who vowed their allegiance to the God who had recently freed them from Egyptian slavery.  However, as both Biblical and carnal history have shown, they eventually rejected […]

The sign that reflects a people’s dedication to the preservation of those things it values most is its willingness to go to war to preserve them.  Such values as freedom, peace, national and self-determination, etc. are values that millions of people have fought and died to gain and defend.  Cemeteries in France filled with the […]

In Matthew 24 Jesus and His disciples were exiting the Temple in Jerusalem when they asked Him a question that undoubtedly had been a topic of discussion.  For over three years He had been telling them about the future Kingdom of God and His saints’ position in that kingdom.  Naturally, they wanted to know when […]

As I have warned in the previous series, hell is on the way and will engulf mankind in a virtual cauldron of terror and death.  History’s so-called “acts of nature” such as the Black Plague, the Flu Epidemic, COVID-19, famine, drought, flooding, forest fires, earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, the dust bowl, along with skyrocketing crime […]

In Leviticus 26:22 God pronounces a strange curse on the United States (as well as Great Britain and the Jews of the Middle East).  Here He warns that, because of their sins, the people will be killed in a variety of ways, one of which is by “beasts of the earth” (22/ Rev. 6:8).   {With […]
