Like every generation of believers before us, we may be tempted at times to see the rampant evil in our world and wonder if God is ever going to close the chapter on this time and if the Day of the Lord will ever come. The early church sometimes wondered, too. In the second letter of Peter, he encourages…

This is our 3rd week in the teaching portion of our EMPTY acronym, our flyover of the New Testament.

There seems to be a fascination with the idea of the end of the world, especially among Christians. Here is just a small sampling of the predictions that have been made. The Shakers, a Christian sect founded in 18th century England, predicted the world would end in 1792 and then in 1794. William Miller,…

When the day of the Lord does come, it will be unexpected like a thief in the night. A mighty conflagration will dissolve the heavens and the earth with all its works.

So I will always remind you of these things, even though you know them and are firmly established in the truth you now have.

1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up.

1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. 8 By faith Abraham, when…

Last week, I shared with you, the Heavens Declare. I wholeheartedly believe the Bible is the truth. God does not lie. When it says, In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth, and spells out how He did it in 6 days, and rested on the seventh, that is exactly how He did it. I believe, like…

Introduction Heaven and Hell are real places, not just figurative or make believe places. They are real and we will one day be there.
