The following is a helpful article responding to preterism and their interpretation of “the end of the age,” which they construe as the Jewish age. Dr. Mike Stallard writes: “Even though preterism has gained some traction in modern Christendom, the teaching of preterism may not be gaining much ground among Protestants in North America.2 In […]

Andy Woods ‘Replies’ to Me . . .
Just a quick note for those who were wondering if Andy Woods was interested in meaningful interaction with my podcast episode yesterday where I argued that Woods was making up a meaning for the Greek word apostasia, believing that it could mean a rapture in 2 Thess 2:3. Woods claimed that the Greek word could […]

He was interviewed by Gary Stearman on Prophecy Watchers. “Let no one deceive you in any way. For […]
A good point concerning a gap between the 69th week and 70th week of Daniel. . .
“This blog [post] is a section from a paper I delivered at the Pre-Trib Study Group a couple of years ago. I am responding to Sam Storms’ book Kingdom Come in the paper but in this particular section, I am giving a response to his claim that dispensationalists are simply forcing their preconceived view onto […]
Why I removed James MacDonald Links from this Website
This will be brief. The more just recently I have examined James MacDonald’s eschatology the more I believe he is confused on what prewrath teaches, because he has affirmed certain mid-trib and post-trib statements that contradict prewrath. This has caused confusion with many readers here and understandably why. Prewrath shares some tenets with all the […]
Calling All Calvary Chapel Prewrath PASTORS
There has been a groundswell of Calvary Chapel church-goers who are embracing prewrath eschatology in the last decade. A very encouraging phenomenon! If you are a CC pastor who is prewrath and would like to connect with other CC prewrath pastors please contact me. Also if you are not a CC pastor but you know […]

Therefore, get your minds ready for action by being fully sober, and set your hope completely on the grace that will be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed. (1 Pet 1:13) Pretrib interpreters read this verse and assume that since Peter says “set your hope” on the grace that they will received at […]

5 Reasons Why ‘Armageddon’ (Har-magedon) Refers to the Mount of Megiddo
The sixth bowl states, Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates and dried up its water to prepare the way for the kings from the east. Then I saw three unclean spirits that looked like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of […]
Hell is a real, conscious place of torment – a brief reply to annihilationism
I want to make a brief note responding to the annihilationist claim that unbelievers will not suffer conscious torment after judgment day (i.e. they will cease to exist all-together). They will be “annihilated,” it is claimed. The problem with this view is that Rev 19:20 contradicts this notion: “And the beast was captured, and with […]
“I stopped believing in God after pastoring a megachurch”
The point below made by Steve Hays can also be said of believers in the church who do not have a solid biblical foundation in eschatology and thus will be unprepared when the Antichrist’s great tribulation arrives. https://triablogue.blogspot.com/2018/09/i-stopped-believing-in-god-after.html I don’t know if this is worth commenting on, but it’s getting lots of buzz: www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-nE-zrIhKc A […]
