Jesus said, “Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the son of Man.” Luke 21:36 When the Greek New Testament uses the second person (“you”), it means the person or persons (or class […]
Three interesting verses
In the Last Days book, we pointed out two interesting verses: Luke 17:30-31 says in the context of the Lord’s return, It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed. On that day no one who is on the roof of his house, with his goods inside, should go […]
More about the Antichrist
We often hear the antichrist is a man of peace, at least when he is initially on the scene, but no Bible verse says he is a man of peace. The antichrist confirms or strengthens a covenant and then the 7 years begin. The Bible is silent on what he is doing during the first […]
The Antichrist confirms a covenant, but is it a peace treaty?

We read in Daniel 9:27 that the antichrist confirms/strengthens a covenant with many, and we learned the last seven years begin at this time (see Appendix C in the Last Days book for the explanation for this). Then immediately we read in Daniel that […]
Do not be amazed…
Do not be amazed at this, because a time is coming when all who are in the graves will hear His voice and come out … (John 5:28-29a)
Christmas 2014
This Christmas-time we are enjoying the Christmas carol In the Bleak Mid-Winter. In the bleak mid-winter Frosty wind made moan, Earth stood hard as iron, Water like a stone; Snow had fallen, snow on snow, Snow on snow, In the bleak mid-winter Long ago.
