The Bible is absolutely consistent; all prayers and requests should be directed to our Father in heaven. He is the only One we should directly address, the only one who answers prayers. 1. In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus repeatedly commanded His followers to pray only to the Father. “But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, PRAY TO YOUR FATHER who is in the secret…
Below is a sermon I preached in 2013 shortly after I published my book, “The TIME of the END.” This sermon emphasizes the critical necessity of God’s presence among us as we are heading into the opening of the 7-sealed scroll of Revelation 5:1 — 8:1. Most Christians are woefully unprepared for what is about to happen in the next 3-5 years. And most churches and pastors are just entertaining “sleeping” members, making them comfortable,…
President Trump has announced May 17 as a national day of rededication of the USA to God. This exactly seven weeks before July 4th. During the ceremonies He is going to read from 2 Chron. 7 which describes the dedication of Solomon’s Temple and contains the following promise. 2 Chron. 7:14 (NKJV)14“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways,…
Every time you see the above clause in your English Bible, it is a FAKE translation. The Greek Text reads τῇ μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων, pronounced “tA mia tOn SabbatOn”, literally, “the first [day] of the Sabbaths.” The word σαββάτων (SabbatOn) translated ‘week’ is not even a Greek word, but a transliteration of the Hebrew word “Shabbat” (Sabbath), repeating the phonetic sound using Greek letters, and it is PLURAL (Sabbaths), not singular. There was a perfectly…
When Jesus’ disciples asked Him about the signs they should watch for which would announce His coming and the “end of the age,” He began with the following warning: “Take heed that no one deceives you” (Matt. 24:4 NKJV). When Paul later addressed the coming of Christ and “our gathering together to Him” (2 Thess. 2:1) he likewise warned, “Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the…
In October 2025, President Trump proposed an enormous arch to be built in Washington DC for the 250th Independence Day celebration. The proposed design, pictured below, was first posted on X by the architect firm (Harrison Design) on Sept. 4th, 2025. It has a winged woman atop the arch flanked by two eagles. She is holding a torch in her right hand, and a shield in the left hand. On Oct. 9th, the model of…
One of the reasons so many Christian youths walk away from the Faith is because the churches only teach WHAT to believe instead of objectively demonstrating WHY what they are teaching must be true. They do not teach the “WHY” because asking the hard questions exposes some of their own doctrines to critical review. They cannot defend some of these objectively using sound logic and sound biblical interpretive principles. They often give the illusion of…
Last night Diane and I hosted the Passover meal, a sweet time of fellowship around remembering Jesus’ last Passover with His disciples. Rather than celebrating it when the Jews observe their Passover on the 14th or 15th of the month Nisan, this year I decided to observe it on the correct weekday (Thursday night) in order to keep the focus on the sequence of Jesus’ passion week. As I am typing this, around 8:30am Friday…
Revelation 7:13-17 (LGV) 13 Then one of the elders responded, saying to me: “Who are these dressed in white robes, and where did they come from?” 14 And I said to him: “My master, you have observed.” And he said to me: “These are the ones who emerge out from the great tribulation, and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. 15 Therefore they are before the throne…
Eph. 5:17,24-27 (LGV) 17 Consequently, do not be foolish, but consider what the will of the Master is. … 24 Therefore, just as the assembly is subordinate to the Anointed One, so also wives [must be] to their own husbands in everything. 25 Husbands, love your wives, just as the Anointed One also loved the assembly and gave Himself up for her, 26 that He might set her apart, cleansing [her] through the bath of…
Rev. 19:6-9 (NASB) 6 And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude and as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty peals of thunder, saying, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns. 7 Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready.” 8 And it was given…
One of the key differences between those who believe in the personal reign of Christ on earth for a thousand years and those who deny it is the question of the resurrection of the dead. Is there only one general resurrection of all of the dead? Or is there a distinct resurrection first of only the righteous? The “pre-millennial” interpretation requires a staged resurrection, the first being separated from the second by a thousand years….
The genuine Christian Faith was founded, expounded, and demonstrated by the Son of God who was and is “the image of the invisible God,”[1] perfectly reflecting the character and purposes of God. The Apostles then mirrored “the mind of Christ,”[2] having been “conformed to the image of [God’s] Son.”[3] They parroted Jesus’ teachings and followed His example of submission to God’s stated purposes and His self-sacrifice. The Apostles were secondary reflections of God’s purposes and…
