Rethinking The Rapture

"Jesus isn't coming back to rescue a defeated church—He is returning for a victorious bride. The Church is not an intermission in Jewish history. We are the Israel of God, and we are in the main event. The gates of hell do not advance against us. We are the ones who will see them fall as we march ever onward."

The Great Trumpet Blast

"The dispensationalists can keep looking at the sky, waiting for their heavenly airlift. They can keep sitting in their bunkers, flipping through prophecy charts, waiting for a trumpet that has already blown. But the rest of us? We go to war. We march forward. We proclaim the Gospel. We conquer the nations. We tear down every wall, every stronghold, every false kingdom, every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of Christ. Because the trumpet has sounded. The Kingdom has come. The battle belongs to the Lord. And His dominion will never end."

14 Reasons The GREAT TRIBULATION Already Happened

“The antidote to defeat isn’t despair, doom, or dispensational gloomery—it’s courage, resilience, and a fighting spirit. Christ calls us to plant the flag of His kingdom in the soil of this world, not wave the white flag of surrender. Just like the book of Acts, we advance no matter what—whether they mock us, imprison us, or even kill us. Because here’s the thing: if we persevere in faithfulness, we will win, not because of us, but because the world belongs to Jesus, and His dominion is unstoppable”

The destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 was not a tragic accident but the divine fulfillment of Jesus' prophecy, marking the end of the Old Covenant and the triumph of Christ’s redemptive work. History, Scripture, and prophecy align to declare that the abomination of desolation has already occurred, vindicating Christ’s authority and confirming the Gospel’s victory.”

The Jewish Love Grew Cold

Jesus warned that the love of many would grow cold, and history bears witness to how this prophecy came true. Under Satan’s relentless influence, the Jewish nation spiraled into a psychopathic frenzy of hatred—toward their enemies, their brothers, and eventually, themselves.”

The Great Apostasy

"The apostasy Jesus predicted wasn’t confined to the last days of human history—it was an imminent apostasy. Jewish converts who had embraced the Gospel with joy were abandoning Christ to return to the shadows of the old covenant. This was no mere lapse in faith; it was a deliberate rejection of the One who fulfilled the law, a betrayal that proved they were never truly of Him."

End Times Signs As Imminent Judgment

"Signs in Scripture have always declared two imminent outcomes: judgment upon God's enemies and salvation for His people. They are not distant mysteries but urgent warnings and assurances, rooted in God's covenantal faithfulness and fulfilled in the ministry of Christ. To miss their historical context is to misunderstand their purpose."

The Curse Upon The Jews

“This is the story of a cursed generation, a people who invoked the blood of their Messiah and reaped the whirlwind. The destruction of Jerusalem was not just a tragedy; it was a testament. God's Word does not fail. His promises, His warnings—they are as unshakable as the heavens.”

Wars, Earthquakes, and Famines (OH MY!)

Jesus didn’t give His disciples a casual prophecy. His words hit them like thunder: wars, rumors of wars, earthquakes, and famines—all signs they would experience with their own eyes, ears, and trembling hearts. He was shaking them awake, warning them of a future that would upend everything they knew, a future they would live to see

The Whore, Jerusalem

The destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 was not just the end of an era; it was the severing of the old covenant, the final 'divorce' of a harlot bride. And yet, in that moment of devastation, the Church stood, cradled in the hands of the Holy Spirit, ready to grow and become the radiant bride Christ would one day return for.

False Messiahs and Anti-Christs

The manifest testimony of Scripture and history is that the first century Christians faced a proliferation of false messiahs and anti christs, who were the architects of the bloody uprisings, rebellions, and insurrections, which ultimately provoked Rome into all-out war. Jesus, in His perfection and wisdom, not only called it, but He accurately prophesied the very engine that God would use to fuel the Roman’s battering rams: The rise of false messiahs.
