In this teaching, we examine supersessionism (replacement theology) and its common claim that the Old Testament contains land promises for Israel, while the New Testament is mostly silent, implying those promises are canceled or absorbed into the Church or Christ.

Will the New Jerusalem Physically Land on Earth? In this episode of Bible Prophecy Answers, we tackle a key end-times question: Will the New Jerusalem actually descend and be set down on the earth—at the site of present-day Jerusalem? Walking through major prophetic passages in Isaiah, we explore how the Old Testament anticipates the radiant glory, worldwide gathering, and unique light source that closely parallels John’s New Jerusalem in Revelation.

Friends, I am going to be 100% candid. When I started this ministry nearly 15 years ago (recently changing the name to Bible Prophecy Answers), I had the prayer and hope that there …

In this short teaching, we examine 2 Thessalonians 2:8 to show why the man of lawlessness (Antichrist) must be future. Paul says Jesus will destroy the lawless one at His parousia (Second Coming)—meaning the Antichrist is active on earth when Christ returns.

Where Is the New Jerusalem Today? (Heavenly Jerusalem Explained) In this episode of our New Jerusalem / New Creation series, we tackle a question that Christians often wonder about but rarely explore in depth: Where is the New Jerusalem right now? Drawing from key passages in Hebrews, John, Galatians, Isaiah, Genesis, and Revelation, we build a biblical case that the New Jerusalem presently exists in heaven as a real, God-built city—awaiting the day it descends to the earth at Christ’s return.

What Is the Thessalonian Error in 2 Thessalonians? In this episode, we explain the “Thessalonian error”—the fear that believers are already in the Day of the Lord when, in fact, they are not. Walking through 2 Thessalonians 1–2, you’ll see how Paul comforts the Thessalonian church during persecution and corrects false teaching that the Day of the Lord’s judgment/wrath had already begun.

In this teaching, Roger Best continues his overview of end time events and focuses on one key question: When does the rapture take place in the sequence of end-times prophecy? Rather than date-setting, he lays out a clear biblical timeline using foundational passages such as Daniel 9, Matthew 24 (the Olivet Discourse), 1–2 Thessalonians, and Revelation 6–16.

In this opening session, Roger Best tackles a question many Christians are asking in a world marked by conflict, upheaval, and spiritual confusion: *What does the Bible actually teach about the end times?* With so many prophecy books and teachers offering competing timelines, this message aims to clear the fog by returning to Scripture and laying a foundation for understanding end-time events—especially the timing of the rapture in relation to tribulation and God’s wrath.

In this episode of Bible Prophecy Answers, Dr. Alan Kurschner challenges a common imbalance in modern evangelism: many Christians boldly proclaim the cross (Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection) while rarely proclaiming the crown—the second coming of Christ, His kingdom reign, and His coming judgment. The result is a “truncated” message that often omits what the host calls the full gospel of the kingdom.
