Mukluks, Food, and Faith during the Great Tribulation
The winter in Northern Wisconsin has started early. I am a cold enthusiastic. In Northern Wisconsin we have an additional hunting weekend starting tomorrow, so I will be in the woods in sub-zero degree weather before the crack of dawn with my trusted friend, Henry 308. It got me thinking of a question that I […]
The Resurrection in Daniel 12:1–3 Does NOT Take Place at the End of the 3.5 Year Period
Renald Showers cites Dan 12:7 to argue that the great tribulation mentioned by Jesus in his Olivet Discourse will last 3.5 years: “Then I heard the man clothed in linen who was over the waters of the river as he raised both his right and left hands to the sky and made an oath by […]

VIDEO: Next Year in Jerusalem
One aspect of Janet Willis’s writings has shown with clarity in her What On Earth Is Heaven Like? A Look at God’s City: New Jerusalem that interpreters have assumed a linear measurement rather than considering a cube measurement. She explains all of this in Chapter 3 of her book. If for no other reason […]
‘In the twinkling of an eye’
I cannot tell you how many times I have heard people cite “in the twinkling of an eye” as support for an imminent return of Jesus. I have chalked it up to that adage that if you hear something said over and over again, you begin to believe it, and over time it is reflexive […]
Does the ‘Day of Christ’ and the ‘Day of the Lord’ Refer to the Same Event?
