Those who hold the pre-tribulation rapture position, usually site 1 Thessalonians 5:9 "For God has not destined us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ" But this verse cannot possibly refer to Christians suffering here on earth, because Christians have been...

The 144,000 may have been tasked with evangelizing the earth, but there is nothing in the text of Revelation that would suggest this. Certainly, there is no literary tie between the 144,000 and the multitudes of saints that came out of the Tribulation in Revelation 7:9, 10. Both of these groups...

I’m working on my 4th book called, “The Heavenly Tabernacle” in which I’m advocating a new, or let’s say “less explored” grand theme of the book of Revelation. So many Bible scholars and students of eschatology focus on the unraveling mysteries; such as the meaning of the number 666, or who...

It has been suggested the Solomon’s temple was designed to represent the body of a man. See “Atrophic Temple” http://www.templemount.org/badillo/index.html If this in fact was the designers intention, it would not have been an innovative representation in ancient times, as the Great Pyramid...

I was just reviewing the story in Daniel 2 about Nebuchadnezzar’s dream of a giant statue. Most who read this story get caught up in trying to interpret the vision of the statue in eschatological terms, but what really caught my eye this time around was the rock that struck the statues base...

Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ I need help to develop the world’s first FREE On-line Bible School. The vision is to provide a resource that would prepare people for the work of ministry. These people may be in the third world or here in the west and have a heart for ministry, but perhaps do...

I have a hunch that Jacob's ladder In Genesis 28:12 really should be translated as “tree”. The Hebrew term is “cullam” and only appears this one time in all of scripture, but it comes from the root word “calal” which means to lift up or exalt – once again not really very helpful, but the very...

As always, I like to put my ideas through the crucible by bringing it to you guys to find out where the holes in my position might be. The topic is profound! This is something the evangelical church almost never deals with – the difference between our salvation and the Kingdom of God. One is...

The Bible starts with 2 trees by a river, and ends with 2 trees by a river. The tree’s dimensions penetrate every realm of God’s creation – branches to heaven, shades the earth, roots down to the abyss. Sin came to humanity as man partook of one tree, and we were expelled out of the Garden...

Dr Colin Brown from Fuller Theological Seminary has written an interesting paper called “What was John the Baptist Doing?” He writes – “In emulation of the original entry depicted in the Book of Joshua, John’s baptism called on Israelites to exit the land, and return across the Jordan under the...

I’ve just started a small group in my home, and I was hoping to get some creative ideas on how we can effective build our relationships in our group. What do you do for your small group?

Our church has just bought a bowling ally to run our fellowship out of, and one of the ideas to help build the business up is to run a singles night for the single Christians here in Toronto. Does anyone have any good ideas on what we could do with the singles on these nights? That is, on top of...

I'm looking for a critical reviews of the following article . . . For those who believe that the story of Eden is much more than just a creative metaphor providing a literary vehicle to enlighten people in an existential way; who believe Eden is a chronicle of beginnings that reflects events...

Our libraries and the internet are filled with ideas on where Eden might be, including Tibet and South America, but the majority of Bible scholars believe the location of this unusual orchard existed in one of two areas. The northern location is thought to be in Armenia or Eastern Turkey where...
