A king will arise, Insolent and skilled in intrigue. A study in Daniel 8 pertaining to the antichrist.


I wonder how many of you open up a site like this and say, oh, it’s just a Bible study. I have sat through too many boring, misleading, and thoughtless Bible Studies and have no intention of doing that now. … Continue reading

Questions and concerns about the antichrist. Part 3 of four.


We ended part two with this.  Because he, the antichrist, affirms the “peace” covenant, we seem to think he is the one that initiates it, and that is not what the scriptures tell us. The passage that we love to … Continue reading

Questions and concerns about the antichrist. Part 1 of four.


I am taking a short break from our study in Matthew to address some questions and concerns once again. One of the major concerns is the number of people who are willing to tell us that we are looking for the … Continue reading

Jesus has returned from the wilderness… Matthew 4:13-18.


 When we last saw Jesus, He had been taken, by Satan, up onto an exceedingly high mountain. You might ask yourself, why does this guy get so elaborate? That is because my understanding of scripture is still, to some degree, segmented … Continue reading

What, then, did dominion mean to Adam? Matthew 4:1-11.


Almost as if it was moments later, Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness. Illustration 1: The Wilderness of Zin, The Wooster Geologists. If I told you nothing else, could you picture what this place looks like … Continue reading

And behold, the heavens were open to Him. Matthew 3:16


When I ended my look into Matthew’s gospel, Jesus had come to John (who was baptizing in the Jordan) so that John would baptize Him. “But John tried to talk him out of it. “I am the one who needs … Continue reading

An acquaintance of mine threw a question/challenge out to the public in the hope of a response. No one seemed to respond, so I took a couple of days to put together a response, and this is it.


You asked general but widespread questions. I separated what you wrote into assertions and questions, and this is my response. “… does anyone else see some resemblance in the description of the rapture and the events at the crucifixion?” I … Continue reading

This blog originated from Pastor Jack Hibbs’ Sunday Morning message dated 4/30/2023. The coming of the antichrist. Can we see that he is coming?


This blog is based upon Pastor Jack Hibbs’ Sunday Morning message dated 4/30/2023. It is NOT meant to disrespect the Pastor, but I, too, have been challenged by people telling me that the rapture is not in the Bible, while … Continue reading

He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire. Matthew 311-13.


I ask this question as I think about the thief on the cross. How many baptisms are we supposed to endure? That came off rather pessimistically and I have experienced far too much religious tradition, but it’s a rhetorical question anyway … Continue reading
