Armageddon: The Iranian Conflict and End Times
Well. I finally saw the word used in association with events currently at play in the Middle East. In her post, Coston claimed that, in the last battle, the nations wouldn’t necessarily fight against Israel but against Christ. I have to say, I have never actually seen such a narrative in the text of Scripture.…

Take Care With Biblical Prophecy
As I work through the Old Testament witness about Jesus’s First Coming for our the 25 Days of Christmas at Alex Southern Baptist Chapel, I’m noticing the same tendency to do too much with the biblical witness. I understand how tempting it is. We want everything to be a direct foretelling about Jesus so we…

The Rapture Didn’t Happen, Now What?
It was predicted that the Christian rapture would happen on September 23 or 24, 2025. Well, I am confident that Jesus knows me and has saved me, and I’m still here to write this. I even checked on Facebook to make sure I wasn’t left behind. I gave it a few extra days so I…

Let’s Start a Fire: Encouragement in the Tribulation Mentioned in 1 Peter 1:1-9
Peter’s eschatology in the New Testament is interesting to me. It seems to go against the grain of the rest of the Bible. Throughout all of Scripture, God promises to never again destroy the world despite the wickedness of people (cf. Genesis 8:21-22). In fact, God intervenes to prevent destruction and even sends the Son…

Armageddon
Only one more chapter until Jesus claims all authority in heaven and on the earth. Matthew is writing about how the kingdom of heaven came. We saw Jesus claim that from this moment on, the people would see Him at the right hand of Power and coming in the clouds. Peter denied Him, fulfilling prophecy…

The Signs of the End… End of What?
Your Bible heading may say, “Signs of Christ’s Return,” or something similar. Please keep in mind that the headings over the sections of text in Scripture are not inspired in a verbal-plenary way by God—except, perhaps, in the Psalms. Jesus has left the Temple after weeping over Jerusalem and calling the city desolate. His disciples…

Asking God for Discernment; The Desolation of Jerusalem, PT. 1
Eschatology is a divisive matter in our time because people disagree about so much, and we don’t really know how to have civil discussions. When talking about the end-times, people from every camp like to light their fires with Matthew 24. I’ll be upfront about what I think. I am postmillennial. Yet, I want to…

Daily Devotional: Ephesians 1:13-23
The saints believed the gospel message when they heard it and were sealed in Christ by the giving of the Holy Spirit. A seal is something placed on an official letter making that letter the property of one person. If anyone other than the approved person breaks that seal, consequences ensue. King Jesus’s seal is…

Daily Devotional: 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
Paul does not want the Thessalonians to be uninformed concerning those who are asleep, or their brothers and sisters in the faith who have died. Whatever Paul is about to write is about a particular type of rapture, but not a future, secret rapture of all the saints all at once prior to a greater…
