6 Reasons Why You Will NOT Take the Beast’s Mark
1. You trust God’s teaching that suffering, persecution, and martyrdom are temporary, while the life beyond this one will be eternal with Christ.

God will protect our soul IN the world, not FROM the world, during the Antichrist’s great tribulation
One of the most common reasons Christians are embracing the prewrath position is because of the distinction that is made between the Antichrist’s great tribulation and the day of the Lord’s wrath.

A Reply to John F. Hart on Why the Parousia in Matt 24:36–44 Refers Back to the Parousia in Matt 24:30–31
Six years ago, I did a six-part series responding to John F. Hart’s (and other pretrib teachers’) unfounded and strained interpretation that the parousia in Matt 24:36–44 is a completely different parousia than the one depicted in Matt 24:27, 30–31. I am re-posting my series below. Incidentally, during these six years I have never received […]
