Why I Believe in a Pre-Tribulation Rapture

11 reasons why Jesus will come back before the Tribulation Rapture Expectation Frequently I am asked to explain or defend the end-time view of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the Church. For that topic, lots of Bible verses, readings and references rattle around in my skull. I can extract each like a Powerball out of an air machine and present it to the inquiring mind, but never in a linear, comprehensive manner in which I particularly appreciate. And so, this article is my attempt to organize my brain on the Pre-Tribulation Rapture view. You’re welcome to come along on the journey! …

God is the FIRST—the BEGINNING. Before him there was nothing.

Revelation 21:6-7 (KJV) 6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. 7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. Alpha is the first letter of the Greek alphabet, and omega is the last letter of the alphabet. In other words God is “the beginning and the end.” But God isn’t speaking about alphabets. He is speaking of reality. God is …

Strangely Dim

Hebrew 12:2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Colossians 3:1-2 Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. I’ve had all these plans piled up sky high A thousand dreams on hold And I don’t know why, I …

Complete Acceptance

Job 2:10 10 But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips. Because we’ve lived with our wives over the years and have become extremely comfortable around them, we tend to be unguarded in our words. Wives usually get the brunt of our worst words. Since this is true, let’s agree today that we will restrain ourselves from verbal impurity. Job didn’t make a blasphemous statement. He didn’t curse …

I don’t know about tomorrow;

Luke 12:7 – But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. I don’t know about tomorrow; I just live from day to day. I don’t borrow from its sunshine For its skies may turn to grey. I don’t worry o’er the future, For I know what Jesus said. And today I’ll walk beside Him, For He knows what is ahead. Many things about tomorrow I don’t seem to understand But I know who holds tomorrow And I know who holds my hand. Every step is getting …

It is only the grace of God which can subdue the old nature; and it is only the Word of God which can feed the new nature.”

“Here, then, is the character or nature of the new birth. It is not the reformation of the outward man, it is not the education of the natural man, it is not the purification of the old man, but it is the creation of a new man. It is a Divine begetting ( James 1:18). It is a birth of the Spirit ( John 3:6). It is a being made a new creation ( 2 Corinthians 5:17). It is becoming a partaker of the Divine nature ( 2 Peter 1:4). It is a being born into God’s family. Every born …

“Go again seven times.” 1 Kings 18:43

“Go again seven times.” 1 Kings 18:43 Success is certain when the Lord has promised it. Although you may have pleaded month after month without evidence of answer, it is not possible that the Lord should be deaf when his people are earnest in a matter which concerns his glory. The prophet on the top of Carmel continued to wrestle with God, and never for a moment gave way to a fear that he should be non-suited in Jehovah’s courts. Six times the servant returned, but on each occasion no word was spoken but “Go again.” We must not dream of …

Revelation Message 44 Come Out of The Evil Woman

In this video Dr Woodhead discusses the two women of Revelation. Come out of her means the world corrupt systems of Government, Economics, and Religion. Revelation 18:1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. 2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. 3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of …

“Unless the Holy Spirit illumines our understanding, the wonders and beauties of the Word will remain hidden from us

“Unless the Holy Spirit illumines our understanding, the wonders and beauties of the Word will remain hidden from us. The Bible is addressed not so much to the intellect as it is to the heart. Prayer is an essential prerequisite. Before we open the Bible we need, every time, to get down on our knees and humbly beseech God, for Christ’s sake, to “open thou mine eyes that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law” (Psalm 119:18). Mysteries of grace which are hidden from the wise and prudent are revealed to “babes,” i.e., the simple, humble, dependent ones. …

By His Matchless Grace are We Saved

OUR SALVATION IS STRICTLY GIVEN BY THE GRACE OF GOD Ephesians 2: 1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Unregenerate people are dead spiritually and therefore like the physically dead are unable to communicate with the living God. The spiritually living are those who have been born again and are connected to God. They have been made alive by believing the gospel and receiving the Holy Spirit. Interestingly God says, “You will seek Me and find Me when ye shall search for me with all your heart” (Deuteronomy 4:29; Jeremiah 29:13; Psalm 14:2; Isaiah 55:6-7 and …

Using a Wrong Approach

Genesis 3:1-8 3 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? 2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: 3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. 4 And the serpent said unto …

Wait and Watch

Wait and Watch Job 2:10 10 But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips. Job’s response to his wife’s suggestion that he curse God and die is magnificent. “You speak as one of the foolish women speaks” (Job 2:10). Hats off to the old patriarch! In his weakened condition, sitting there in the misery of all those sores, not knowing if any of that would ever change, he …

Paying It Forward

By Grant Phillips One of nicest things we can do as a Christian is to “pay it forward” when led to do so. Some call this “passing it on.” I was asked to address this issue by Matt, a brother in Christ. He asked if I might say a few words on this subject. There are many ways we can show this type of kindness and appreciation to others. Following are some ideas. Pay for someone’s meal without their knowledge. Give your seat to someone else on a crowded bus. Offer an honest compliment on a job well done. Don’t …

Nimrod the Founder of the Occult and Babylon

NIMROD The Bible develops a very prominent and notorious character named Nimrod. He was the sixth son born of Cush. His name in Hebrew means to rebel. He was the founder of Babylon and Assyria. He is mentioned in I Chronicles 1: 10, Micah 5: 6 and in Genesis 10: 8b-9. The Hebrew text states that he was a mighty hunter before the Lord. This is indicative of his antagonism and opposition to God. He was wicked and made the whole world rebel through the building of the Tower of Babel. He was the first to establish kingdoms. This happened …
