Apostasy and the
End Times
2nd Thessalonians 2:9,10 states: “Even him, whose coming is after
the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And
with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish;
because they received not the love of the truth, that they might
be saved.” This passage of Scripture speaks about the 7-year
Tribulation Period, after the Rapture,
when the masses of this world will eagerly follow the Antichrist,
thinking he is a wonderful person. Most people in the world today
DON'T love the truth, nor do they have any desire to hear the truth.
When you tell them the truth they become defensive and
argumentative. Some people get very angry. Only a small fraction of
people love and receive the truth of the Gospel to get saved.
We are clearly living in the End Times
(see 2nd Timothy 3:1-7), as evidenced by the prophecy in Revelation
17:10, “And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is,
and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue
a short space.” The first 5-kings (or world powers) have been
Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia and Greece. Rome was the 6th
world power at the writing of Revelation. There have been no
world powers since Rome fell in the 5th century A.D., although
there are several super power nations today such as China,
Russia and the U.S.A. The NEXT, or 7th, world power will be the
New World Order (a coalition of 10 nations, Revelation 17:12),
and the 8th king will be the BEAST, i.e., the Antichrist... “And
the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the
seven, and goeth into perdition” (Revelation 17:11). The
Antichrist will arise to power out of the New World Order.
This is why
I personally believe that the
Lord's return, i.e., the
Pretribulation Rapture is very near. Amen!

Hallelujah for the Rapture, "For God hath
not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ"
(1st Thessalonians 5:9). Yet, let us never forget that our soon
departure will leave unconverted family and friends behind. And if I
were you, I wouldn't waste any time, for that trumpet is surely out of the
case by now!

I am saddened that some of the
greatest books and sermons on prophecy are NOT freely available to the
public. The reason is obvious, the books are being sold for money to
support existing ministries. Though I do understand a ministry trying to
keep afloat, I have always been a firm believer that what God gives us for free
should not be sold to others. That's just my opinion. Ministries
should not horde the works of great men by mooching off their labors for the
Lord. The TRUTH should never be sold! Proverb 23:23 instructs us to
"Buy the truth, and sell it not..." In other words, we should be willing
to pay for the truth if we need to, but we should NEVER sell it. I have
never sold anything on this website, and never will. I would never sell
truth which God has given me for free. I'll go unplug toilets if I
have to for a living, but I'm not going to make money selling the truth. Most people,
who would never spend a dime to buy a “religious book,” WILL often take the time
to read something that is FREE.
I recently contacted a well-known
ministry several times to ask if I could place some books online by a great
preacher who has now gone on to Heaven. They have all the copyrights. I said I'd do all the work and even start a separate website just for his
materials. They didn't even respond. I wrote them again, but to no
avail. I can just picture that man of
God up in Heaven throwing a fit. He spent his entire life
soul-winning, building churches, and authoring umpteen books to share his wealth
of knowledge—just to watch his labors in the Lord die with him. His
materials are superbly written, but the almighty dollar comes first. No wonder America is going to
Hell. There are wicked heathens online, who give all their
vile filth away for free; but
then Christ-honoring literature, which was authored by great men of God, is
horded and kept hidden.
Let me put it to you this way. If I had spent my entire life writing books and preaching sermons, and then died and
went to Heaven... I would want those books and sermons in the hands of as many
people as possible after I was gone. Think about it. "Where there is
no vision, the people perish..." -Proverb 29:18. The problem is that many
ministries don't have the right VISION, so the great men of God perish as a
result. We need to keep the great men of God alive. Heresy abounds
on the internet, and there is a desperate NEED for
Bible-believing Christians to contend for the Biblical faith.
"Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall
he find faith on the earth?" —Luke 18:8
Ye Must Be Born Again!
The
New Testament quotes the Old Testament 845 times, 333 of those
times it concerns our Lord Jesus Christ. The purpose
of all Bible prophecy is to reveal more of Jesus Christ to us, "...for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of
prophecy" (Revelation 19:10). The books below are
excellent:
