As events in this world move along at a rapid pace, thereâs an ever-growing interest in prophecy. We donât want to get into the position of forcing parts of prophecy to come together to fit like a puzzle, but to take what is revealed to us by God, progressively putting them together to make an image that is factual according to scripture, not an interpretation of man. Peter is a particularly good place to start: " knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private … [Read more...] about Prophecy’s Relevance Today
Church
Godly Church Governance
Many have experienced a variety of approaches to Church government at the human level. A widely accepted government in the Churches was a more autocratic, authoritarian style. It was government from the top-down, investing a large amount of authority in the one at the top. Eventually this led to a more âlordshipâ style of leadership within the Church. It was not an altogether illogical deduction from a human point of view. Godâs governance is from the top down. It flows from the Father to His … [Read more...] about Godly Church Governance
Christian Nationalism
Christian Nationalism is a political ideology that blends the state with religion. It's a spectrum of attitudes and beliefs and we are going to create a conceptual framework which is going to be mostly extra biblical until near the end of the framework. This is important because the moral decline of the West is really, fait accompli: It's done. We exist in a moral vacuum and some think we are actually at some risk of a conservative backlash. And when politics and religion combine, … [Read more...] about Christian Nationalism
Why Israel?
If ideas about Israel are discussed within a non-church environment, it could be quite uncomfortable because many of those ideas can point to some concepts contained in British-Israelism which are widely considered to be racist.

When asked if British-Israelism is racist, ChatGPT, an AI language model for generating human language, responded: âYes, British-Israelism can be … [Read more...] about Why Israel?
Ideological Subversion
In an interview dating back 38 years, defected KGB spy, Yuri Alexandrovich Bezmenov, made a very sobering prediction about the United States. He warned that America could be defeated through an incremental process of ideological subversion. He defined it this way: âWhat it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American to such an extent that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, … [Read more...] about Ideological Subversion
Pentecost, the Spiritual Connection
There are many things that we can learn and understand in our walk with God when we observe Godâs walk with the nation of ancient Israel. Thereâs much about the nation of Israel that sets a pattern for us to learn from. By covenant, they became a called-out people who were destined to live according to the will of God as expressed by His law. The feature of the special relationship was the fact that God would dwell among them: âAnd let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among … [Read more...] about Pentecost, the Spiritual Connection
The Jungle Grows Back
A book titled The Jungle Grows Back is an indicator of prophetic advancement, and can be used as an analogy for our own personal spiritual lives. These are my words, not the authorâs, as I draw the analogy. The jungle represents the Babylonian system of human government; a system developed post-flood and is the underlying system throughout the four world-ruling kingdoms as revealed by the image of Daniel 2. From the reign of Nebuchadnezzar to the kingdoms existing at the return of Jesus … [Read more...] about The Jungle Grows Back
