| 8/18/2023 | In the midst of the warnings and promises The Lord tells His people that He will return to them a “pure language” which for Jewish people for the first 2,000 years of their existence was the Hebrew language.

| 8/1/2023 | Returning to the land of their forefathers is a trend that indicates that the world is nearing the time described in Bible prophecy as the “last days” as the Jews make their way “back home”. This actually has been happening for the last 100 years. |

This will be a time of “real peace” and the “people will learn of war no more”. |

| 7/26/2023 | God worked in the heart of this Jewish preacher, Jonah, and then allowed him the ministry to his own people to show them the Lord’s heart and compassion and their lack of compassion and failure to serve the Lord within His plan and power. |

| 7/24/2023 | Jonah, having been cast overboard by the fishermen, would end up in the belly of a “great fish” for three days and three nights. |
| 7/23/2023 | Jonah helps us to learn we can run, but we can’t hide, as we flee the direction God wants us to go. He has ways of bringing us back to the path we must follow. God can make us do exactly what He has commanded us to do. |
| 7/22/2023 | This little book, the smallest Old Testament book, of Obadiah is one of a number of prophetic passages focused on the Edomites, the descendants of Esau. The facts be known, there is more judgment pronounced against Esau and the Edomites than any other peoples in the Bible. |

The Edomites would rob the merchants and run back through the gorge into Petra, which is about 25 square miles in size.

| 7/9/2023 | The Lord’s return to the earth in “that day” reveals the Lord’s plan for that time when He brings the beasts of the field, the fowls of the heavens and the creeping things on the earth into the relationship there was between His creation and man before the fall. |
| 7/8/2023 | The book of Hosea sets forth the major themes of the entire prophecy; Israel’s unfaithfulness; the certainty of judgment; and the ultimate restoration of the Jewish nation in the last days. |

| 5/20/2023 | On the Jewish Feast of Passover there will be Passover Seders in Jewish homes across the world. The book read during the Feast of Passover in Jewish families is the Song of Songs, which the Jewish people consider to be the “holy of holies” in Scripture. |

| 10/25/2022 | God, in the past, did raise up the ancient Jewish prophets to speak His word to us. But, as the Bible says, “in these last days has spoken to us by His Son”. |

| 10/21/2022 | In light of the central theme of Titus, “how to live right as we await the coming of Jesus Christ”, the local assembly must have Biblical leadership in place to teach the right doctrine as we approach the soon coming of Christ. |
| 10/20/2022 | Preach the Word and do it “in season and out of season”. That means when we have an opportunity, “in season;” or when we make an opportunity, “out of season.” |
| 10/19/2022 | The Apostle exhorts Timothy to remember what he had been taught from the scriptures, as a child, and he was to do those things he had been taught. |
| 10/18/2022 | Remember, you can not understand prophecy, which is 32% of the Bible, without studying the entire Bible. |
| 10/17/2022 | Paul takes a young man to assist him in his ministry, but at the same time, as he instructs young Timothy in his ministry among the churches, Paul is continuing to build Timothy in the Lord as well. |
| 10/16/2022 | How thrilling it is that the creator of all things, the Lord Jesus Christ, has purposed a calling for each of us, and He did this before our birth, before we were even formed in the womb. He did this before the world began, in eternity past. |
| 10/15/2022 | Paul was giving young Timothy, in his first letter to him, such timely tips for how to live in troublesome times and he tells his young ministry partner to share these truths with others. |
| 10/14/2022 | Paul tells Timothy that he should be reading, meditating and continuing that which he had learned from Paul and then pass it along to others for their benefit. |
| 10/13/2022 | Paul lays out the qualifications for both the “spiritual leaders” of the church and those who are to be spiritual, as well, the “servants” (deacons) at the churches. |
| 10/12/2022 | Therefore, we are to first, pray for those who have the authority. He is preparing this world for the return of His Son and all that follows, as foretold in Bible prophecy. |
| 10/11/2022 | It is true, that the closer we get to Jesus, the worse we see ourselves to be. Remember, the way we get close to Him today is by talking to Him and allowing Him to talk to us, through the reading of His Word the Bible. |
| 10/10/2022 | We also need to walk “pure” each day by laying aside that which is ungodly and evil and living that which is godly and righteous, as we look up for Him to take us to be with Him. We must also be “productive”, in winning others to Jesus Christ and helping them to grow even as Paul was doing among the Thessalonians. |
| 10/9/2022 | II Thessalonians 2:13 speaks of how both election, (God’s plan of bringing people to Himself), and free will, (our experience of accepting what the Lord Jesus Christ has done for us to bring us to salvation), work together. |
| 10/8/2022 | False teachers and deception presently are a part of our society today, which indicates that Antichrist is nearing his appearance on earth. |
| 10/7/2022 | All Aboard For Heaven. A Timeline Of Events For The End Times |
| 10/6/2022 | Paul encourages the Thessalonians with the fact that the Lord will bring judgment upon all those who were persecuting them, “when He shall be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels,” |
| 10/5/2022 | God has not appointed Christians to partake of the “wrath” to come, that seven-year period of judgment. As we see the revealed events of the Tribulation Period seeming to be about to happen we can look up with great anticipation of His shout for us to join Him in the heavenlies. |
| 10/4/2022 | The Rapture could happen at any moment and with the prophetic events recorded in God’s Word seemingly coming to pass, the Rapture could happen today. Even so come, Lord Jesus. |
| 10/3/2022 | Paul sets the bar high for us to reach up to as we follow his example of ministering to all people. A motivation for this is the reality that we will stand before Him and it will be revealed what we have done for Him and among His people, the Christians that we have opportunity of ministry with today. |
| 10/2/2022 | Paul’s ministry was “soul-winning” and he declares that the “crown” that we can receive for being a soul-winner is the “Crown of Rejoicing”. |
| 10/1/2022 | Jesus said in the upper room that He was going to Heaven to “prepare a place for us”. This place is in His Father’s house and He is getting our place ready so that we can dwell together, forever. |
| 9/30/2022 | If the Word fills us, we will use psalms, hymns and spiritual songs to teach each other and admonish each other in our worship of the Lord. What we do, we do in the name of the Lord. |
| 9/29/2022 | We are to set our affection, or our focus, our ambitions on things above. We do this so that when Christ shall appear in His glory we also shall appear with Him in glory. |
| 9/28/2022 | One day everything will “blow apart”. That’s when everything on this earth will “burn up” as foretold in Bible prophecy. |
| 9/27/2022 | The Creator loves us enough to tell us in the prophetic passages of scripture what will happen as we prepare for His return to be the pre-eminent One. |
| 9/26/2022 | “The Lord is at hand” is telling us that His shout for us to join Him in the air, the Rapture, is an “any moment” event that is “imminent”. |
| 9/25/2022 | When Jesus Christ comes He will change this old “worn-out body” of ours, and fashion it like His “glorious body”. |
| 9/24/2022 | Paul wrote the Ephesians that we can know the “power of the Resurrection”, this is the power to live today, which we can receive from the Lord, by faith. |
| 9/23/2022 | We are prepared for His return as we “hold forth the word of life”. It is His word on how to get saved, live our daily lives, and anticipate His return. |
| 9/22/2022 | If Paul believed the Rapture would happen in his day, how much more should we look for the Rapture in our day, 2000 years after Paul. |
| 9/21/2022 | Prayer “changes us” so that we can conform to his image. “Watching” is that act of being aware of the enemy, the Devil and also “watching” for the Lord’s return. |
