A layman’s commentary on Matthew 24 verse 15. The Abomination of Desolations.


 The NASB entitles this next section, The Abomination of Desolation. As a standalone statement, this makes no sense to me, and thus, we begin a deep dive into Matthew 24:15 and beyond. “When ye therefore shall see the abomination of … Continue reading

A layman’s commentary on Matthew 24. Matthew 24:14. And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world


 Our last post on Matthew 24 opened with “Because Iniquity will abound.” Jesus equated this iniquity to false prophets and lawlessness.  There are two prominent translations of the Greek word anomia, and the King James gives us this.  “And because iniquity shall abound, … Continue reading

An interruption of the layman’s commentary of Matthew 24. Let’s talk about the age of the earth from a Biblical point of view.


We had a house guest recently, and I try not to overwhelm them with my deep dives into scripture. But a family member had also stopped in, and that person instigated this conversation under the pretense of pointing out the … Continue reading

A laymans commentary on Matthew 24. Chapter Four, verses 11- 15. “Because iniquity shall abound.”


 Chapter Four “Because iniquity shall abound.” Matthew 24:11 NASB “Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many.” Matthew is not the only one to make this statement. “Many will come in [appropriating to themselves] the name [of Messiah] which belongs … Continue reading

The antichrist. How, then, do we fit the Roman Empire into this mix? Daniel 9:26 and a few other verses.


In the previous post, I referred to Daniel describing the statue, with the head of gold, to Nebuchadnezzar. He tells Nebuchadnezzar that he is the head of gold. Both the silver and the bronze are referred to as inferior kingdoms, … Continue reading

I want to talk about the antichrist persona for a few minutes.


I pay a lot of attention to conversations about eschatology (end times events as they relate to scripture.) Everything going on around us is related to biblical end-times events; this includes Israel at war, the breakdown of our governmental systems, … Continue reading
