When Will The Reign Of Christ End?
“He must reign until all brothels are closed and marriage is esteemed. He must reign until the media stops peddling lies and division and would be willing to end each broadcast with The Lord’s Prayer or the Apostle’s Creed.

Eschatological Fried Pickles (End Times Series Part 25)
“Like we said last week, don't just stand there. Do something. And repent of any dispensational defeatism.

And when you have done all this, go live with all your heart to the glory of Christ. Build His Kingdom while you are here. And when you are ready to die, hand off your hammer to the next man.“
