I considered two significant activities that God is doing with Israel during the church age to prepare them for salvation. Making Israel Jealous and Saving a Remnant In Rom 9–11, the apostle Paul articulates his […]

Failed Recall or Ignorance?

by

Source Since [the church] had no part in the first sixty-nine weeks, which are related only to God’s program for Israel, it can have no part in the seventieth week, which is again related to God’s program for Israel after the mystery program for the church has been concluded. J. Dwight Pentecost, Things to Come, […]

When Did the Church Begin? (Video)

by

Tony Garland in his helpful video below explains with clarity when the church was established, giving evidence that it was at the pouring out of the Spirit at Pentecost portrayed in Acts 2. He gives sound biblical criteria in determining when this great new event of the church age of God’s redemptive program began. At […]

A Response to the Pretribulationism and Dispensationalism of James C. Morris in Light of His Abuse of the Early Church Fathers

by

First, I must say, when you write me through the contact page, it is best to give a salutation and signature to your email, otherwise I typically do not even read emails that do not contain these basic and respectful elements to a letter. I receive scores of emails (many that are “drive-byes” with an […]

Irenaeus Taught that the Church Would Face the Antichrist

by

Source I want to respond to pretribber John Hart’s misrepresentation of Irenaeus, taking a snippet of Irenaeus out of context and making it sound like he is teaching a pretrib rapture. Nothing could be further from the truth for three contextual reasons. First In Hart’s proof text, I noticed that he conveniently omits the very […]

A Response to Ken Johnson’s Abuse of Reading His Pretribulation Rapture Back into the Early Church Writers (Video)

by

Gary Stearman of Prophecy Watchers interviewed Ken Johnson on his show this week. The program is an exercise of wishful thinking claiming that the early church writers were “pretribulationists” (see the video below). Anyone with a modicum of knowledge of what the early church writers taught on this issue understands that they taught that the […]

Pretribulational teachers add ANOTHER dispensation to human history in order to protect imminence theology against prewrath eschatology

by

All theologians believe the Bible teaches that human history is made up of a variety of dispensations where God works in a special redemptive mode and epoch. What is debated, however, is the number of dispensations and the nature of them. I believe Paul outlines at least four fundamental dispensations (oikonomia) in human history in […]

Why We Should Expect the Antichrist to Arrive THIS Generation

by

Premise 1: The Bible teaches that Jesus can return during any generation (e.g. Matt 24:36–25:30). Premise 2: The Bible teaches that the Antichrist will arrive before Jesus’s return (e.g. 2 Thess 2:8). Conclusion: Therefore, the church should have a real expectation to face the Antichrist’s arrival this generation. Conversely, if we think that the Antichrist […]

How Do We Know that the Events of the Great Tribulation Begin at Matt 24:9 and Not 24:15?

by

I am asked if the events in Matt 24:9–14 portray events throughout church history or during the future seven-year period. “Then they will hand you over to be persecuted and will kill you. You will be hated by all the nations because of my name. Then many will be led into sin, and they will […]

Issues of Interpretation and Commentary on Matthew 24–25 – Jesus’s Olivet Discourse

by

I am asked frequently if I can recommend a commentary on Matthew’s Olivet Discourse. The problem is that (1) many commentaries on Matthew, in particular chapters 24–25, come from a historicist view, an interpretation that skews Matthew’s message and consequently distorts the application for the church today; (2) some commentaries come from a preterist view and/or […]
