Though Its Implications Are Overwhelming, The Sound Doctrine Of Hell Is Vitally Important

With that terse observation, the late church historian Martin Marty summarized our attitude toward a vanishing doctrine that received a great deal of attention in previous generations. Hell is scarcely mentioned in most evangelical churches today. I must ask: When is the last time you heard a sermon or a serious Bible lesson on the topic? Sometimes it is given a quick mention, but yes, Marty is right, hell has disappeared, and we didn’t even notice.

A Privilege And Challenge: Considering Our Place In God’s End-Times Plans

Our world is getting worse. At first we might think, Who would want to be an end-times Christian? However, we have been called for such a time as this, and we are here on assignment! It is a privilege and a challenge to be alive in these days. We have a front-row seat to the last act. The drama has become intense. The players are all in place. The stage is being set. And you can’t understand the times without developing a biblical perspective that helps to shine the light of God’s truth on everything.

Franklin Graham Delivers Message At Pentagon’s First-Ever ‘Christmas Worship Service’

"I want to thank you all for sharing in this first Christmas Worship Service here at the Pentagon," Hegseth told the hundreds of attendees. "It's the least we could do in this season. We do it monthly as well — a prayer service — which we will continue to do, because, as George Washington did that first year, he went on bended knee for providence in impossible tasks."

The Throne Of David: The Divine Orchestration Of History And The Fulfillment Of God’s Promises

Nathan's presence in the genealogy of Jesus underscores the divine orchestration of history and the fulfillment of God's promises, which have been given in detail throughout the Bible. So, this Christmas, as you celebrate the cradle, make sure you also celebrate the fact that Jesus will wear the crown and rule from David’s throne, as revealed to Mary in Luke 1:32-33: "He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David. And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there will be no end."

Can We Know With Certainty That The Rapture Will Occur Before The Seven-Year Tribulation?

The Rapture agnostics tell us we cannot determine whether or not we will go through all of the Tribulation or perhaps a part of it. This is not true. The Bible provides us with a clear path leading to the certainty that Jesus is coming to take us home before the start of the Tribulation period, or what the Old Testament describes as the Day of the Lord. The absence of nary a hint that we must prepare for this time adds confirmation to this trek through Scripture.

In The Face Of ‘Cancel Culture,’ Will Christians Blend In Or Stand Fast For Truth?

Our society has gotten lost in the addiction of “cancelling.” But let’s be real... this is not a new phenomenon. It’s time for you to decide for yourself. Will you blend in and accept the current calm while surrendering what God has laid on your heart? Or will you step forward boldly, knowing that God is behind you, before you, and beside you, no matter what the world says?

The Prophetic Significance Of Socialism’s Rise In America

The rise of Socialism has profound implications for the future of our nation and, given the fact that America is the global leader, it also has ramifications for the entire globe. It's nothing short of meteoric. However, beyond those concerns, the popularity of Socialism also has strong prophetic overtones that I believe will pave the way for the rise of the world's final great tyrant: the antichrist.

Despite What You Have Been Told, The Book Of Revelation Is A Story Of Hope For All Who Believe

When you think of the book of Revelation, what comes to mind? Fire? Destruction? 666? Whether you have read the book many times or your experience is limited to a youth group showing of Left Behind, the terrifying scenes don’t always spur excitement for the future. And yet, the book that concludes the story of the Bible—and the story of the world as we know it—is a story of hope.

Recognizing Prophetic Times: A Firm Biblical Foundation For Our Expectancy Of Jesus’ Appearing

Why did Anna and Simeon so readily accept that the infant Joseph and Mary brought to the temple was the promised Messiah? They believed Bible prophecy, and more specifically, the opening lines of Isaiah 9:6, “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given.” They didn’t seem at all surprised that the baby they held in their arms was indeed the long-awaited Christ. They believed what Scripture said and didn’t try to allegorize (symbolize) the promise that the Messiah would arrive as a baby.

Christians Are Not Called To Fear The Future, They Are Called To Understand It

Indeed, it has become commonplace among many churches and Christian circles to avoid and even dismiss the subject of Bible prophecy. The rationale behind such a decision is often motivated by fear of teaching on matters that can be viewed as controversial or contentious. Instead of expounding on prophetic Scripture that may be viewed as difficult or having the potential for objections and debate, some churches choose to simply overlook, omit, and neglect these portions of God’s Word.

Isn’t It Time That We, As Christians, Stand Up For What We Believe?

We’re living in a time when people are standing up for all sorts of causes. And in some cases, people are even willing to lay down their lives for what they believe in. Isn’t it time that we, as Christians, stand up for what we believe? It seems to me that at a time when so many are standing up for so many causes, there are many in the church who are not standing up for anything. We are embarrassed. We are ashamed. But it’s time to stand up and be counted.

Giving Thanks For His Amazing Grace And The Prophetic Hope That Awaits

Whether this Thanksgiving finds you surrounded by the embrace of family or facing seemingly insurmountable challenges all on your own, remember that if you belong to Jesus, you have every reason for thanksgiving. Your salvation is secure, having been sealed by the Holy Spirit. Your future is bright, having been guaranteed by God’s faithfulness. And, your hope is imminent, in that Jesus could call His children home at any moment. These are the eternal realities that should fill your heart with gratitude, not just on one holiday, but every single day.

The Necessity Of Proclaiming The ‘Blessed Hope’ To The Younger Generation

Saints, future generations need us. They rely on our loving care and biblical consistency. This is true on many levels. They need us to be careful and consistent with the gospel, in how we love them, how we lead them, and how we teach them. They especially need us to be lovingly careful and biblically consistent when teaching about the last things—eschatology.

Accountable To God: One Of Christianity’s Most Offensive And Important Teachings

Because of Christianity’s biblical teaching on Hell, some atheists have criticized our faith and said that it’s at the root of a lot of the world’s problems. Actually, history directly contradicts that assertion. History shows us that a lack of belief in God and in the afterlife is at the root of many atrocities. If the atheistic Joseph Stalin really believed that he would be accountable to God and face Him one day, do you think he would have been as cruel as he was? Would Mao Tse-tung and other atheistic mass murderers have done the things they did if they believed they would face a final judgment?

The Truth Satan Seeks To Erase Through Antisemitism

This is why antisemitism is so persistent. It is why it mutates from religious to racial to political forms. It is why it appears on the left and the right. And it is why today’s Jew-hatred looks eerily like yesterday’s, even when the rhetoric has changed. The covenant God made with Abraham remains, and therefore the hatred remains. But the Scriptures are clear: the Jewish people are not the obstacle to the redemption of the world—they are the vehicle of it.

Silent Pulpits, Celebrating Evil, And A New Level Of Delusion: Ten Things I Could Never Have Imagined Seeing In My Lifetime

I never thought that I would get worn out, exhausted, and depleted from warning the clueless that time is running out. This is a new level of delusional thinking that life will only get better despite all the biblical warnings. It’s all falling apart, folks, so that last day’s issues can fall into place!

Blessings In Disguise: Serving A God Who Can Bring Good Out Of Terrible Tragedy

Two Scriptures came to mind as I prayed in the aftermath of Charlie Kirks death. The first was the familiar Romans 8:28 … that “in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.” But how could this be good? The answer was in the second verse, John 12:24: “… unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.”

In The Wake Of Charlie Kirk’s Assassination, Are We Truly Witnessing A ‘Revival’?

Over the last few weeks, I have been repeatedly hearing one word in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, and that word is "revival." My heart broke when I heard the news of Charlie’s passing, and my soul still mourns for him and the family he left behind; yet, out of such terrible darkness, it has been amazing to watch what the Lord has been doing across America and beyond in response to such a grievous tragedy.

The Real ‘Brain Virus’ Isn’t Christian Zionism — It’s Antisemitism

Their line—"Christian Zionism is Christian heresy"—reveals that politics has become their religion. They promote not the transforming work of Christ in individual hearts but a cultural crusade—a collective Christian identity defined by power, blame, and control. In that movement, Israel becomes a target, and Christian Zionists are the pawns.

Wonderful Beyond Imagination: Examining The New Heavens And New Earth

Although I am sure that all of us are very excited about seeing God bring about the new heavens and the new earth, for good measure, I remind you that in 2 Peter 3:13 we are instructed to look forward to this promise: "Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells."

The Nation Of Israel Stands As An Example — No Nation Exists Outside God’s Sovereign Purview

When it comes to God’s sovereignty, the Enemy continues to sell two great lies—and people continue to buy them. The first is as old as Babel itself (Gen. 11). It is the notion that nations are masters of their own fate. The second is that if the nations try hard enough, they can destroy Israel (Ps. 83:4). However, God’s Word stands against both of these lies.

Knowing Christ’s Return Is Imminent, What Must We Do To Be Ready?

Jesus commands us to look out for His return. You’ll hear some people ignorantly claim that Bible prophecy is all nonsense. And yet, Jesus Himself has said that when we see these signs of the end times, then keep watch. Therefore, Jesus wants us to expectantly watch for His return.

The Simpleness Of Evangelism: The Great Commission Isn’t Just For Pastors Or Missionaries

Have you ever felt nervous about sharing your faith? You’re not alone. Many Christians are uptight about sharing it, just as non-believers are uptight about hearing it. And yet, most non-believers haven’t even heard an accurate presentation of the gospel, in my opinion. Why is it that we hesitate to share the greatest news in the world?

Legacies Of Anticipating Jesus’ Soon Return—Do Christians Long For The Rapture In Vain?

When it comes to Bible prophecy, one of the dismissive criticisms of scoffers is that generations of Christians have come and gone without the promise of Jesus’ coming being fulfilled. Skeptical of the “practical” value of anticipating Jesus’ soon return, they will ask, “What’s the point?” Were they able to testify to us still, I have every confidence that those who have gone to be with the Lord after longing for the Rapture in this life would strongly encourage us to share the anticipation they exemplified.

Unlike Man’s Peace Agreements, Under The Rule Of The True King, Peace Will Not Be Fragile Nor Fleeting

Israel is also right to be grateful for the involvement of President Donald Trump. But amongst the hyperbole which often accompanies exuberant celebrations, we must remember there is a truth to behold. During a brief interview by an Australian news journalist at Hostages Square in Tel Aviv, the interviewee excitedly claimed that Donald Trump is making the world great again. There is a subjectivity to that statement, which I am sure will be debated endlessly by people on the other side of the aisle. But my greater concern was the man’s follow-up statement. He called Donald Trump “the king of peace”.

Prayer: The Most Neglected Weapon In The American Arsenal Is The One Most Urgently Needed

As Christians, it isn’t enough to simply rely on political, military, or academic leaders to solve our nation’s problems or protect our freedoms. We need to recognize that the most powerful weapon at our disposal is the one faithfully proven to be effective time and again throughout the pages of Scripture.

As The World Promotes The Abraham Accords, It Forgets The Abrahamic Covenant

While the nations of the world continue to put their hopes of peace squarely on the carefully crafted words of The Abraham Accords, many seem to be forgetting that God has His own Abrahamic document that He is working to fulfil. It is known as the Abrahamic Covenant and it is the fountain from which flows all of God’s redemptive purposes for Israel and for mankind as a whole.

Examining Motivations: Why The Rapture’s Timing Truly Makes A Difference In The Christian Life

The pre-tribulation rapture view makes Christ the central focus of the end times and elevates His preeminence over all. It seeks to glorify God above all. It creates authentic praise to God as the believers’ hearts swell with grateful anticipation for what comes next. It propels the church to reach the world with the urgent and important Gospel message.

The Gospel Is The ‘Power Of God To Salvation’

The Gospel was powerful enough to change Saul of Tarsus into Paul the Apostle. It was powerful enough to save 3,000 in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost. It was powerful enough to convert thousands in the First and Second Great Awakenings, and it was powerful enough to move 2.2 million people to say yes to Jesus Christ under the ministry of Dr. Billy Graham, of which I’m one. The Gospel is the power of God unto salvation.

One Day, The World Will Be Governed By The Perfect Ruler: The King Of kings

The actions of many world leaders, particularly as it concerns Israel, is most certainly a cause for distress amongst the remnant church. The quality of leadership which exists throughout the nations (with the exception of a few) is extremely poor. Yet, we look ahead with confident assurance that one day, the world will be governed by the perfect Ruler and the redeemed will no longer be distressed or depressed! No votes will be cast, no UN resolution will be sought, no social media poll will be taken. Jesus Christ, King of kings and Lord of lords will reign and He will do so from Jerusalem.

Cutting Through The Controversy: Is The ‘September Rapture’ Hype or Hope?

Regardless of what we believe about Rosh Hoshana or its fulfillment in the Rapture, we all agree that the time is exceedingly short until Jesus takes us, His true Church, home to glory. We know that the Rapture will happen before the Tribulation period, and that day of wrath is approaching faster than few of us can even imagine. It’s not easy to fully grasp just how quickly our world will change in the twinkling of an eye.

Greg Laurie: Why Satan’s Lies About The Resurrection Will Never Hold Up

Satan could do nothing to stop Jesus’ resurrection two thousand years ago. So, part of his strategy now is to make people doubt that Jesus really rose from the grave. He promotes lies, often cloaked in pseudoscience, to plant seeds of skepticism regarding the resurrection.

Mark Henry: What A Hero Looks Like In God’s Eyes

None of these possessed any supernatural abilities or space age technology that made them heroic; rather, they used their God-given gifts coupled with dauntless determination to utilize the time God gave them to make a difference in the world in the service of and for the glory of Christ. They were no different than you or me. But as their lives show, God can do extraordinary things using ordinary people who make themselves available.

Skip Heitzig: God Who Works In You

Christianity is more than just a decision to make Jesus your Savior. It's also a determination to walk with Jesus as your Lord. If you don't do that, you're going to become what so many in the church have become: pew potatoes—the spiritual equivalent of couch potatoes. They watch things happen, but they aren't "doers of the word" (James 1:22).

Jack Hibbs: Where Next, Lord?

God has established our life’s course, and that leads us to naturally assume that He knows where we ought to plant our feet. Our responsibility is to ask, “Where next, Lord?” I am convinced that God desires to lead us more than we could possibly imagine and that His voice goes out more frequently than we might have considered.

The Hinge-Point Of Human History: Bible Prophecy And The Birth Of The King of kings

In the long centuries since Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem, a great nostalgic myth has arisen around His birth. Artists and songwriters have softened the circumstances of His arrival. It is a scene befitting a baby’s birth, with solemnity suitable for a king’s nativity. But those are not the circumstances foretold in Bible prophecy.

Joel Veldkamp, head of international communications for Christian Solidarity International, said politics often taints the CPC list. Nigeria was on the list during Trump’s first term, but the Biden administration removed it. “It’s one of the most egregious omissions,” Veldkamp told CBN News. “More Christians are killed in Nigeria for their faith every year than in the rest of the world combined.”

A Foundation of Scripture: The Founding Fathers Passed A Torch; Modern Americans Would Do Well Not To Let It Go Out

To most of America’s founding fathers, the Bible was true from beginning to end, and it was the only source upon which to establish the new, independent nation. However, with the advent of conjectures and hypotheses that undermined how people viewed the Bible’s history, its moral authority began to erode. Without the Bible’s absolute moral truths guiding the American people, the institution undergirded by this authority and designed to govern them will falter.
