The Top 3 Prophetic News Headlines of 2022 - The number one sign of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is the convergence of all the signs He said to look for. Jesus said, "When you see all these things take place, look up! Your salvation draws near"(Luke 21:28). What are the things Jesus and the prophets said to look for? Israel back in the land (Jeremiah 23:7-8)... The Jewish people back in control of Jerusalem (Luke 21:24)... Will An Economic Pearl Harbor Destroy America? - On December 7, 1941, Japan caught America by surprise when it attacked the U.S. naval base in Pearl Harbor in Honolulu, Hawaii. Japan sought to destroy the U.S. Pacific Fleet. Fortunately, that attack didn't destroy the United States. But the future may not be so kind. Why? Because the U.S. is setting itself up for a modern day Pearl Harbor... How Close is the Rapture of the Church? - How close is the rapture of the church? I think we can get a good idea based on recent surveys of self-identified Christians in the United States. Recently, The Christian Post reported, 'Over a third of senior pastors believe ‘good people’ can earn their way to heaven.' This was the conclusion of a survey conducted by the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University. The survey polled... A Global Food Crisis is Coming - In January and March, I wrote about a coming global famine. Unfortunately, the world has remained on the same trajectory since that time. As we enter the last few months of 2022, the world will awake to that reality as global harvests come in with lower than expected totals. Why is this? Entering 2022, rising energy costs had driven up prices for both diesel and fertilizer. Since these are the two... Russia, Iran, and Turkey Forming a Biblical Alliance - Vladimir Putin will meet with Iranian and Turkish leaders in Tehran this week. The trip will mark only his second trip outside of Russia since the Ukraine war began. In his previous trip outside of the country, Putin visited Tajikistan (home to Russia's largest military base outside of its own borders) to discuss Afghanistan's stability. He then attended a summit in... The Coming Financial Collapse and the Great Reset - As the global economy wrestles with rising fuel and food prices, several financial executives have warned of further trouble ahead. In early June, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon warned of trouble in the weeks and months to come, comparing the current financial landscape to the time just before a hurricane hits... Russia, Ukraine, and the Rise of the European Union - For decades, Christians have speculated on whether or not the European Union is the final world empire outlined in the Bible. The Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation point to a revived Roman Empire that will appear in the end times (Daniel 7:23; Revelation 17:10). Since World War II, prophecy watchers have paid careful attention to the slow and steady unification of western Europe... Are We on the Verge of the Tribulation? - After two years of global turmoil, people are starting to realize we aren't going to 'return to normal.' We've endured a global pandemic, widespread social unrest, vaccine passports, and compounding global supply chain issues. Now, we have a major war in Eastern Europe, fuel and food price inflation, and rumors of an impending global financial crisis. Everywhere you look, it seems as though the end is near... A Global Food Crisis is Unavoidable - In January, I wrote about a coming global famine. The political push to move from fossil fuels to renewable energy, coupled with COVID shutdown supply and demand distortions, resulted in much higher energy prices. This was particularly true in Europe where the accelerated push for green energy led to a surging energy crisis... Setting the Stage for a Global Dictator - Around the world, freedom and liberty are under assault. Tyranny is asserting itself. The COVID-19 pandemic has given us lockdowns, vaccine passports, vaccine mandates, and even forced vaccinations and quarantine camps. On January 15th, Canada implemented a vaccine requirement for all truckers crossing the Canada-U.S. border. A week later... The Coming Global Famine? - Sometime around 4,000 years ago, the Pharaoh of Egypt summoned an imprisoned slave named Joseph. Two dreams bothered Pharaoh, and none of his magicians or wise men could interpret them (Genesis 41:1-8). In his first dream, Pharaoh saw seven fat, healthy cows grazing by the Nile. Then seven thin cows appeared and ate the seven fat ones. In his second dream, Pharaoh saw seven large, beautiful heads of grain... The Top 3 Prophetic News Headlines of 2021 - The number one sign of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is the convergence of all the signs He said to look for. Jesus said, "When you see all these things take place, look up! Your salvation draws near"(Luke 21:28). What are the things Jesus and the prophets said to look for? Israel back in the land (Jeremiah 23:7-8)... The Jewish people back in control of Jerusalem (Luke 21:24)... The Collapsing Global Supply Chain - On November 11, a record 111 container ships were anchored off the coast of two California ports. This broke the previous record set just 20 days earlier. In response, Joe Biden promised to strengthen the resiliency of the supply chain by moving to 24/7 operations at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. The Biden administration is concerned about... The Stage is Set for the End Times - As a student of bible prophecy for almost 30 years, and specifically end times bible prophecy, no other time has seemed as close to the end times as right now. Why do I say this? Because, particularly in the past year, the geopolitical and economic stage has been set for the fulfillment of several end times prophecies. We now have several potential crises on the horizon... Enabling the Mark of the Beast - As COVID-19 continues to circulate around the world, it becomes increasingly clear it poses a threat to more than just global health. Governments all over the world have used the crisis to expand their power and trample individual liberty. As 2021 nears its end, governments are increasingly dividing the world into two camps... The Next Financial Crisis - Today marks the 50th anniversary of one of the most significant events in world history. On August 15, 1971, Richard Nixon announced he was "closing the gold window," thus ending the U.S. dollar's convertibility to gold. This ended the post-World War II Bretton Woods monetary system where the world operated on a gold-backed U.S. dollar with other world currencies pegged to the dollar. It also began the new era of... Big Tech Censorship Sets the Stage for the Rise of the Antichrist - In an August 2019 article titled 'Silicon Valley Censorship and the Coming Global Police State,' I wrote the following: 'If you love freedom and liberty, recent actions from high tech companies should have you worried. In pursuit of profit, the mega companies of Silicon Valley have created products that invade user privacy. And they easily cave to the demands of totalitarian governments.' Unfortunately, recent events reveal the United States is now among those totalitarian governments... Quantum Computing and the Fulfillment of Bible Prophecy - In a May blog post, Google unveiled its new Quantum AI Campus and announced its intent to build a million qubit, error-corrected quantum computer by 2029. A month later, IBM partnered with the United Kingdom on a $300 million quantum computing research initiative. Corporations all over the globe are investing resources in quantum computing and its applications. The reason is simple... How Close is the Second Coming? - The past year has been a wake-up call for many people. A global pandemic... Riots and social unrest in countless nations... Fractures in the global economy... And now Israel and Hamas at war. Everywhere you look, it seems as though the end is near. Is it? What does the Bible say? Are these signs of the Second Coming? Are these events pointing to... A Geopolitical and Economic Crisis is on the Horizon - If you listen to the mainstream media, you'll hear a repeating narrative. You'll hear we're nearing the end of the pandemic. Just a few more 'COVID jabs,' and restrictions will ease. Pent up demand will explode throughout the world, and the global economy will be off and running... Central Bank Digital Currencies and the Coming Global Enslavement - Central Bank Digital Currencies are the future of currency, and when they arrive, they'll enslave the world. To understand why, you first need to understand what they are, how they serve the vision of those in power, and why they're inevitable. Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) have yet to be launched on a large scale, but advocates envision a government-controlled... New Technologies and the End Times - Last week, an Israeli company named Aleph Farms announced it had successfully cultivated the world's first slaughter-free ribeye steak, using 3D bioprinting technology and living cow cells. Unlike traditional 3D printing, the 3D bioprinting Aleph Farms developed prints "actual living cells that are then incubated to acquire the texture and qualities of a real steak... The Coming Market Crash - As COVID-19 spread across the world in early 2020, economic activity froze. Entire cities in China were put on lockdown, and the lockdowns soon spread to Europe, the United States, and the whole world. With people confined to their homes, many businesses closed. The global economy came to a grinding halt. Global supply chains broke, airlines cancelled flights, and an oil glut drove down petroleum prices as supply outstripped demand... The Top 3 Prophetic News Headlines of 2020 - The number one sign of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is the convergence of all the signs He said to look for. Jesus said, "When you see all these things take place, look up! Your salvation draws near"(Luke 21:28). What are the things Jesus and the prophets said to look for? Israel back in the land (Jeremiah 23:7-8)... The Jewish people back in control of Jerusalem (Luke 21:24)... Disturbing Trends Foreshadow a Coming Global Tyranny - The past year has seen a number of disturbing trends take hold in the United States and in countries throughout the world. Unless reversed, these authoritarian trends promise to usher in a new era of global tyranny and totalitarian government. Many who live in western democratic nations are in denial of these trends. But they should note that... Dramatic Increases in Travel and Knowledge - Twenty-six hundred years ago, God provided the prophet Daniel with a number of visions concerning the future. In one of these visions, God revealed several events set to take place just prior to the Second Coming. But an angel told Daniel to seal up his vision until the end times, "when travel and knowledge will increase" (Daniel 12:4)... What Does the Bible Say About Israel's Recent Peace Agreements? - In recent decades, no area of the world has been home to more conflict and ongoing animosity than the Middle East. A cauldron of ethnic, political, and religious clashes, many believe the spark that ignites World War III will come from the Middle East. Central to the region's ongoing conflict are... The Coming Monetary Collapse - Since the arrival of COVID-19 and the subsequent decision to lockdown entire cities and nations, world economic activity has significantly decreased. When normal recessions strike, they typically involve only one nation or a single region. But the COVID Recession has hit the whole world at once. This is the first time every nation... Living Through Birth Pains... What's Next? - With all the restrictions and societal changes brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, I found myself longing for the "carefree" days of 2019 when everything was "normal." Perhaps you've felt the same way. Of course, 2019 was far from perfect. It had its own problems and stresses, but only in comparison to 2020 do we think of 2019 as "the good old days." And that got me thinking... Do You Recognize the Signs of the Times? - About two thousand years ago, Jesus rebuked the religious elites of His day. He criticized them for their failure to recognize His Coming. He told them, "You know how to look at the sky and predict the weather, but you don't know how to recognize the signs of the times" (Matthew 16:1-3). Just like... Cryptocurrency and the Coming Global Tyranny - As the coronavirus swept across China in early 2020, several news outlets posted stories about the Chinese government laundering money - not in a traditional sense, but in a literal sense. With so many people touching paper currency, China cleaned and disinfected vast amounts. In other parts of the world... How the Coronavirus Sets the Stage for the End Times - The current coronavirus outbreak is not an event prophesied in the Bible for the seven-year Tribulation. The world simply hasn't entered that time period yet. However, it is significant to bible prophecy, because it sets the stage for the near-term fulfillment of many end times bible prophecies... The Coronavirus Global Pandemic... What's Next? - In less than three months, COVID-19 (a.k.a. the coronavirus) has spread from Wuhan, China to over a hundred countries and six continents. To stop the virus, Wuhan went into full lockdown mode on January 23. The drastic measure led to a drop in cases, but the city still remains under quarantine to this day. On March 9, the entire nation of Italy followed Wuhan's example... The Coronavirus and Bible Prophecy - Sometime in late 2019, a mysterious virus emerged in the city of Wuhan, China. Easily transmissible, it spread through the city like wildfire. By late January 2020, local hospitals were overwhelmed with critically ill pneumonia patients. China ordered a quarantine of the entire city – a city of 11 million people. Experts named the virus COVID-19 (a.k.a. "the coronavirus")... The Tower of Babel Prophecy - Between Thanksgiving and Christmas, you might have seen this commercial for Microsoft Translator. In it, Microsoft touts its new technology for instant language translation. A little girl sees her mom talking to overseas business partners. The mom speaks English, and her partners hear her in Japanese. They respond in Japanese, and she hears them in English... The Top 3 Prophetic News Headlines of 2019 - The number one sign of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is the convergence of all the signs He said to look for. Jesus said, "When you see all these things take place, look up! Your salvation draws near"(Luke 21:28). What are the things Jesus and the prophets said to look for? Israel back in the land (Jeremiah 23:7-8)... The Jewish people back in control of Jerusalem (Luke 21:24)... Will Artificial Intelligence Rule the World? - In the Hollywood blockbuster The Terminator, humans create a powerful network of computers, an artificial general intelligence named Skynet. Skynet develops the ability to think for itself and decides to eliminate humans. War breaks out between humans and "the machines" - with an advanced artificial intelligence in control of the machines. Is this our future? Some say yes... Next Generation Weapons and the New World Order - In World War I, generals who studied Napoleon sent waves of troops into a barrage of machine gun fire. The rapid-fire weapons mowed down thousands in minutes. Was this necessary? No. Thousands of young men died all because their commanders focused on fighting the last war. They didn't adjust to new developments and new technologies... Turkey Breaks from the West - In July, Turkey announced its plan to move forward with the purchase of a Russian S-400 air defense system. In response, the U.S. expelled Turkey from the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program, cancelling their previous order of 100 F-35s. Furthermore, Turkey's announcement opened the door for more penalties under a 2017 act... Silicon Valley Censorship and the Coming Global Police State - If you love freedom and liberty, recent actions from high tech companies should have you worried. In pursuit of profit, the mega companies of Silicon Valley have created products that invade user privacy. And they easily cave to the demands of totalitarian governments. For example, Amazon's Alexa devices are a huge convenience for many people. But... Dealing With End Times Complacency - In 1970, Hal Lindsey published The Late Great Planet Earth. The book sold millions of copies and introduced a generation to the miraculous fulfillment of end times bible prophecies in our day and time. Coming on the heels of World War II, the rebirth of Israel, the Six Day War, and widespread societal upheaval, many were convinced the rapture would take place before the end of the decade. But... The Unhindered March Toward Globalism - Over the past few years, voters all over the world rejected globalism in favor of nationalism. In the United States, Donald Trump ran on an "America First" agenda and became president. He promised to stop illegal immigration, pull America out of bad international agreements, and change "free trade" deals to "fair trade" deals. Months earlier, voters in the United Kingdom opted to leave the European Union... The Single Greatest Sign of the End Times - It seems like everywhere we look today, we see violence, hatred, and debauchery of every kind. Cities track the number of murders year-to-date, and the local news reports on whether or not the latest body count is a new record. Films and television shows constantly push the envelope, portraying ever increasing violence and sexual immorality of every kind. This is what Paul said the last days will be like... The Coming Global Debt Crisis - A recent headline noted 40% of Americans are unable to handle an unexpected $400 expense. This isn't surprising. Many Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Total outstanding U.S. consumer debt tops $3.9 trillion, and average household debt is $135,768. It's clear many people struggle to manage their finances, and this mismanagement extends to our government budgets as well. The U.S. national debt currently exceeds $22 trillion... Brexit and Daniel's Final Empire - For several decades, Christians have speculated on whether or not the European Union is the final world empire outlined in the Bible. The Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation point to a revived Roman Empire that will appear in the end times (Daniel 7:23; Revelation 17:10). Since World War II, prophecy watchers have paid careful attention to... The Prophetic Impact of a U.S. Withdrawal from Syria - Back in December, President Trump said the United States will soon withdraw military forces from Syria. In a video tweet, he announced American military personnel are 'all coming back, and they're coming back now.' He never provided a timeline for withdrawal. However, Department of Defense officials claimed the withdrawal would take 30 days... Alexa, Stop Listening! - In millions of homes throughout the world, Alexa is listening. Many of you know who I'm talking about, but for those who don't, Alexa is the name of the famous voice behind Amazon's most popular devices, such as the Echo, Echo Dot, Echo Spot, Echo Show, and others. Millions of homes around the world feature these devices. And millions of additional homes have similar products such as Apple Siri and Google Home devices... The Top 5 Prophetic Trends of 2018 - The number one sign of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is the convergence of all the signs He said to look for. Jesus said, "When you see all these things take place, look up! Your salvation draws near"(Luke 21:28). What are the things Jesus and the prophets said to look for? Israel back in the land (Jeremiah 23:7-8)... The Jewish people back in control of Jerusalem (Luke 21:24)... How to Spread the Gospel Like Wildfire - The Gospel spread like wildfire in the early church. For example, a single speech from Peter converted 3,000 people (Acts 2:41), and after he gave a second speech, the number of believers totaled 5,000 (Acts 4:4). In only a few decades, the Good News of Jesus Christ spread from Jerusalem to... The Rise of the Russian-Turkish-Iranian Alliance - In early September, Russia, Turkey, and Iran met in Tehran to discuss the future of Syria. It was just one of many meetings in the past several years between three of the most powerful nations in Middle Eastern politics. In a mid-September meeting, Russia and Turkey agreed to carry out coordinated military patrols on the borders of... The Coming Worship of Artificial Intelligence - The first two commandments God gave the people of Israel were "You shall have no other god but me" (Exodus 20:3) and "You shall not make for yourself an idol of any kind or an image of anything in the heavens or on the earth or in the sea. You shall not bow down to them or worship them, for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God who will not tolerate your affection for any other gods" (Exodus 20:4-5). Yet, the people of Israel quickly broke these commandments... Winning World War III - Can anyone win World War III? Recently, I heard some national pundits ask this very question. Their answer? They said, "World War III will begin the same way World War II ended." In other words, World War III will be a nuclear war. It will be an unwinnable war, and it will end all human life on earth. And because of this, every leader on the planet is determined to avoid it at any cost... Gog's Coming War - Recently, I was listening to a nationally syndicated radio program, and the host made an astonishing observation. She described a recent trip she took to Israel. She talked about looking over the border into Syria. Then she dropped a line that grabbed my attention. She said, "When you look over the border today, you're not looking at Syria anymore. You're looking at Russia, Iran, and Turkey..." The Proof God Exists - Many people claim God doesn't exist, and I often hear people say there's no proof or evidence to believe in God's existence. "You just have to accept it on faith," they say. "There's no evidence." This statement is made as if it's a fact. But is it? No way. Nothing could be further from the truth. People can prove God's existence in any number of ways. But for me, one piece of evidence stands above all others. It's inarguable... The #1 Most Overlooked Prophetic Sign - Can we know when Jesus is coming back? No. No one knows the day or the hour of His return (Mark 13:32). However, we can know the general season of His return. Why do I say this? Because Jesus told us so. He said certain signs will indicate His return is near. And today, we see them. Those signs include (but are not limited to)... Rise of the Drones - If you wanted to catch a glimpse of future warfare, you would've done well to watch the winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea. The opening ceremony featured a dazzling display of synchronized drones. They lit up the sky and arranged themselves to form various Olympic-themed images. If you missed it, go to YouTube and search for '2018 winter Olympics opening ceremony drones.' Previous generations would've thought this was nothing short of magic. But our generation? For us, it went largely unnoticed... Earthquakes and the End Times - When Jesus was asked what would signal His return and the end of the age, He said to look for a number of signs. One of those signs was the appearance of earthquakes (Matthew 24:7). But what does that mean? After all, earthquakes have been a part of human life since Adam and Eve. They aren't rare... Artificial Intelligence and the Coming Global Empire - A series of recent news stories have highlighted the massive advances made in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Several of those focus on China's Yitu Technologies, a company at the forefront of AI development. Yitu created a technology called Dragonfly. Dragonfly can search and analyze billions of photographs and locate a single person in a matter of seconds... Bitcoin and Bible Prophecy - 2017 ended with Bitcoin making daily headlines. If you're not familiar with Bitcoin, it's a specific type of cryptocurrency (a secure digital currency). It made daily headlines mostly due to the mania surrounding its steep rise in price. Why are so many people euphoric about Bitcoin? Many think it will replace the U.S. dollar. They say it's the future of money. Others say Bitcoin is worthless, and its price run-up is a bubble certain to burst. So which one is it... From Manger To Throne - "For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." Isaiah 9:6 (NLT) The birth of Jesus fulfilled all of the above prophecies. And His life, death, and resurrection fulfilled even more. Yet, despite the fulfillment of so many Messianic prophecies, several remain unfulfilled. Not because Jesus isn't the Messiah... North Korea and Bible Prophecy - North Korea has nuclear weapons. They're working to build long-range missiles. And many believe dictator Kim Jong-un is insane. He's promised to blanket his neighbors in "a sea of fire" and threatens the United States on an almost daily basis. To some, war is imminent, and they're fearful of what they see coming. But what does it all mean? How does North Korea fit into bible prophecy? Does the Bible offer any insight? Rise of the Gog of Magog Coalition - More than 2,600 years ago, the prophet Ezekiel warned of a future time when a vast coalition of nations will attack Israel. The leader of this coalition is a man known as Gog, the ruler of Magog (Ezekiel 38:1). This is why the invading force is known as the Gog of Magog coalition. According to Ezekiel this alliance will send an overwhelming force to invade Israel in the last days... The Next Manhattan Project and the New World Order - On September 1, 2017, Vladimir Putin addressed a group of students in Yaroslavl, Russia. Speaking of the future, Putin said the development of artificial intelligence (AI) presents "colossal opportunities and threats that are difficult to predict now" and "the one who becomes the leader in this sphere will be the ruler of the world."... The Coming Cashless Society - The Bible says a time will come when a global dictator requires everyone on earth to receive a mark on the right hand or the forehead (Revelation 13:16). Those without the mark won't be able to buy or sell anything (Revelation 13:17). For centuries, Christians have wondered how this will even be possible. But in recent years, the rise of advanced technology has given us a glimpse as to how it might occur... Global Government: It's Closer Than You Think - Over the past several decades, the world has moved closer and closer to global government. Free trade and globalization have taken the world by storm. National borders have been relaxed, if not completely erased. And many people see themselves as "citizens of the world" instead of citizens of their home country... Can We Know When Jesus Will Return? - Can we know when Jesus will return? No. When it comes to the exact timing of His return, we can't know. Jesus Himself said "no man knows the day or the hour of my return, not even myself. Only my Father in heaven knows" (Mark 13:32). Jesus reiterated this concept when He said... The Undeniable Sign - The signs of the Second Coming are all around us. When His disciples asked Jesus to describe the signs, He gave them several. The Jewish people back in possession of Jerusalem (Luke 21:24-28)... the Gospel preached throughout the world (Matthew 24:14)... the arrival of the exponential curve (Matthew 24:3-8)... and more. The Old Testament prophets also pointed to a number of signs... Syria and the End Times - I believe recent events in Syria have great significance when it comes to the study of bible prophecy. This doesn't mean you're guaranteed to see the immediate fulfillment of any specific bible prophecy. However, it does mean you should pay close attention. Why? Because, at the very least, these events are setting the table for the fulfillment of multiple bible prophecies... Proof Jesus is the Messiah - Is there proof Jesus is the Messiah? Does believing in Him require "blind faith?" No. In fact, it's the exact opposite. Some people mock the idea of Jesus as Savior, calling it "a fairy tale crutch for the weak." Others claim Jesus is nothing more than a mythical figure - a superstition no different than the Greek or Roman gods. Even worse, some people... Why Bible Prophecy Matters - Why does bible prophecy matter? As a Christian, why should you spend any time studying it? It's sad to say, but many Christians (including many church leaders) say bible prophecy doesn't matter. And they say you shouldn't spend any time studying it. Why? Some of the stated reasons are are "Study of bible prophecy is a waste of time" or "it's a distraction." Another common criticism is... The #1 Prophetic Sign - What is the #1 prophetic sign? What sign more than any other points to the soon return of Jesus Christ? While any number of signs are present, I believe one stands out above all others. In fact, Jesus Himself told us what it is. When the disciples said, "Tell us the signs of your coming and the end of the age" (Matthew 24:3), Jesus detailed a number of things to look for... Unto Us A Child Is Born - December 25th is Christmas, the traditional day when Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus. This time of year, movies, TV shows, lawn nativities, music, and Christmas plays tell the story of the baby in the manger. Almost everyone knows this story. It's the story of Joseph, Mary, baby Jesus, the shepherds, and the wise men. But how many people realize the events of Jesus's birth were foretold hundreds of years in advance? And The Gospel Will Be Preached - A little less than 2,000 years ago, a Galilean man in the small province of Judea made one of the most bold and astounding prophecies in all of human history. He claimed His personal message of hope and redemption would be preached to the ends of the earth. When He made this claim, He was a Jewish carpenter on the outskirts of the ancient Roman Empire. Even in nearby Jerusalem, only a small number of people had heard His message... The Counterfeit Miracles of the Antichrist - Not everyone in the world today accepts the message of Jesus. This shouldn't surprise you. Even many of those who met Jesus refused to accept His message. In spite of the love He offered... In spite of His revolutionary teachings... In spite of His miracles... They rejected Him. Why? Jesus said it's because such people are children of the devil - the father of lies (John 8:42:44)... Every People, Language, and Nation - When it comes to the end times, the Bible is clear. A global government will rule the entire earth (Daniel 7:23). It will be more than another superpower. It will rule the whole world. This not only makes it different from past nations, kingdoms, and empires of the world - it makes it completely unique... Is Brexit Mentioned in Bible Prophecy? - In a June 23rd referendum, the people of the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union (EU). The media labeled this British exit from the EU "Brexit." The vote surprised some of those who study bible prophecy. After all, many pointed to the EU as the revived Roman Empire of the end times. Now, after the UK's vote, some have started to doubt that... The Coming Global Government - In 1914, the assassination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand led nation after nation into a massive conflict. Known at the time as "the Great War" and "the war to end all wars," World War I killed 17 million people. 11 million on the battlefield. Another 6 million from disease and famine. If you count the post-war Spanish flu epidemic (which many say the war caused), another 50 to 100 million died... Do You Know Where Satan Is? - Much of the world thinks Satan is a myth, a mere superstition. Others think of him as a cartoonish character - a man in a red suit, wielding a pitchfork, and tormenting people in the blazing fires of hell. But is this an accurate picture of Satan? No. Such ideas are far from reality. Satan isn't a myth. He's very real, and he's a powerful spiritual being. And unfortunately, he doesn't reside in hell... The Convergence Of End Times Signs - Almost two thousand years ago, Peter prophesied about the end times. He said just before Jesus returns, people will openly mock the Second Coming. They'll say, "What happened to Jesus? I thought He was coming back? Yet everything remains the same as it has since the world first began" (2 Peter 3:3-4). I'll bet you've heard this argument many times. But is it true? How Long Was Jesus In The Tomb? - As we approach the time of year when we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, skeptics often raise an important question… Exactly how long was Jesus in the tomb? After all, Jesus said He would be in the grave for three days and three nights (Matthew 12:40). Yet many Christians insist Jesus was crucified on Friday and resurrected on Sunday, and such a scenario doesn't line up with what Jesus said... Foreshadowing Jesus - Long before Jesus was born in Bethlehem, His arrival was announced in the Old Testament. In fact, Jesus Himself said, "You search the Scriptures because you think they give you eternal life. But the Scriptures point to me!" John 5:39 (NLT). He also said everything written about Himself in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the Psalms must be fulfilled... The Ark of the Covenant and Jesus - During the exodus from Egypt, God instructed the Israelites to build a box known as the Ark of the Covenant. But God didn't just say, "Hey, build a box." He provided detailed and specific instructions on how the box was to be made. And you know what? When you study His instructions, you'll find they serve to do one thing, and one thing only - glorify the name of Jesus Christ... The Coming Destruction of Damascus - Did you know Damascus is the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world? For at least 5,000 years, someone has called Damascus home, and some historians believe the city dates back as far as the seventh millennium BC.
