Back in the 1992 presidential election campaign, James Carville, Bill Clinton’s chief campaign strategist, coined the slogan “It’s the economy, stupid.” Maybe an effective variation of that slogan would work well for candidates in today’s political environment–one like “it’s the environment, stupid.” Many politicians tell us that if we just change the environment in which people live, then everyone will do what is right, and we will live in peace and harmony with one another. To them that means we […]

When Brenda and I were in Israel this past winter, we had a tour guide who took us to the very spot supposedly where Jesus was born in Bethlehem. We also had a chance to tour Golgatha and the Garden Tomb, the places where many Christians believe Jesus was crucified and buried. But as thrilling as it was to tour those biblical sites from the past, I can get even more excited about the tour John gives us of the […]

Several commentators over the years have likened the Millennium to the honeymoon of Christ and His church. And it’s true that immediately after the Wedding Supper of the Lamb we will return to the earth as the bride of Christ to rule and reign with Him for a 1000 years. And it will certainly be a time of honeymoon-like bliss! However the Millennium begins with the greatest battle ever fought: The Battle of Armageddon. That’s some way to start a […]

The book of 1 Kings is the sequel to 1 and 2 Samuel and begins by tracing Solomon’s rise to kingship after the death of David. The story begins with a united kingdom, but ends in a nation divided into 2 kingdoms. Join us for this verse by verse study by Brandon Guidry.  

When I was a little boy, on most days when dinner time came around, my brothers and I would be somewhere outside playing and we would hear my mom shout out to us, “Supper’s almost ready!” We knew that meant it was time to come inside and wash our hands and prepare ourselves for dinner. Today, we will be looking at the Wedding Supper of the Lamb that will take place, more than likely in the seven years preceding the […]

On March 6, 1836, 1500 Mexican soldiers under the command of General Santa Anna stormed the Alamo in San Antonio and slaughtered all of the fortress’s 257 Texas soldiers. Santa Anna thought that the utter defeat at the Alamo would cause Texans elsewhere to flee the territory, but it had the opposite effect. Volunteers by the hundreds joined the Texas forces, and on April 21, they attacked and defeated the Mexican forces at Lynchburg Ferry. During the attack they shouted […]

Listen to these encouraging studies by Pastor George from the Book of Psalms.

A lot of people each week go to a church of the same denomination that they grew up attending as children without ever questioning whether or not its doctrine is sound. So they might be attending part of the future church of the Antichrist without even knowing it. That’s why God will tell such people in today’s text in Revelation 18, “Come out of her My people unless you share in her sins and lest you receive of her plagues.” […]

In today’s lesson we will be looking at the Great Harlot: Mystery Babylon, and there are a lot of people who just skim over this text or ignore it altogether because they see the mystery of her identity as unsolvable. But we are given more than enough clues in Revelation 17 to figure out just who this harlot is–not who she will be–for this great harlot has been around for a long time, and she will be around until she […]

For the runners of a race, there is nothing more fulfilling or exhilarating than the moment they cross the finish line and know that their work is done. In today’s lesson in Revelation 16, we will hear a loud voice from heaven coming from the Lord crying out, “It is done!” And His cry will mark the moment that the terrible judgments on this earth are finished and His work of the final redemption of creation is done.

Today we will begin our study on the seven bowls of wrath-the last seven plagues that God sends to the earth at the end of the Great Tribulation. Over the centuries, this section of Revelation has caused many to deem the book unworthy of the canon because these judgments seem to be so harsh and cruel that they could not possibly come from the loving God of the Bible. But as we will see today, they do come from a […]

Today in our Study in Revelation 14 we will be observing angels at work in the Great Tribulation. When we think of angels at work, normally it’s in the context of looking out over children, or ministering to the saints, or making some exciting announcement about some coming supernatural event. But those things or not all the things angels do. Actually, one of their main responsibilities is to implement the judgment of the wicked just as we will see them […]

Listen to these encouraging studies by Pastor George from the Book of Psalms.

There has been many a mission drive over the years entitled “Bring Back the King!” And that title implies that somehow if we the church get the Gospel out to the whole world that we will hasten the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. However, God is not waiting on us to send Jesus back to this earth, He will send Him back on the day He set before the foundation of the world for His return. But as we will […]

In the Chinese culture, the number 666 is considered to be lucky, and so it is often proudly displayed in businesses and in homes. That’s because when the Chinese see the number 666 it means to them “everything goes smoothly.” In today’s lesson in Revelation 13, we will learn the biblical application of the number 666 to the last days in which we live, and we will see why people in Western society, for the most part, shun the number […]
