  • Book of Revelation - Episode #117

    THE BOOK OF REVELATION--   Episode #117


    On a regular basis we have the newest report of the ‘end of the world’. Is is going to be a meteor like ‘Armageddon’? Or will it be ‘nuclear war’? How about a world wide pandemic? Or of course the ‘ubiquitous’ GLOBAL WARMING scare (or scam)? WORLD WIDE POLLUTION maybe? We all have some thoughts, don't we.  ABOVE ALL, however  we must understand that the main purpose of the book of REVELATION is not to SCARE US… or even to inform us how the world is going to end! It is to remind us that God will PROTECT US FROM OURSELVES… that this WORLD IS NOT OUR HOME… and that Jesus REALLY IS COMING BACK. The LAST WORDS OF JESUS are found in Revelation 22:20 BEHOLD I AM COMING SOON!! Hope you enjoy this Podcast about the final book of the Bible--REVELATION!

  • Books of 1, 2 & 3 John

    Ten times in the book of 1 John, the Aged Apostle refers to his readers as "dear children";.  John is an old man when he writes these three letters to the church.  He is the ONLY one of the 12 Disciples left.  Peter is gone. Paul is long dead. In truth, John is one of only a relatively few people left on the earth that had actually met and talked with Jesus during his earthly life. John's life journey has carried him over some incredible times. His brother James was one of the first martyrs of Christianity. John is one of the last.  The Lord is not done with the Apostle John yet, however. He writes-- as an

    Elder and an eyewitness of the ministry of Jesus-- to address 'heresies' that were creeping into the Church and weakening the Gospel message. John's three letters speak to the church then-- and to the church today!!

    The Books of 1 and 2 Peter  

    Episode #114

    When it comes to 'amazing experiences' no one can top Simon Peter.  He walked with Jesus from early on in his ministry... say untold miracles,,, was the only human ever to 'walk on water'... stood on a mountain top with Moses and Elijah as the Glory of God turned the scene to radiant light and the Voice of God spoke over Jesus as 'my son with whom I am well pleased'. WOW! And then, Peter is the first one to enter the empty tomb and with EYEWITNESS integrity proclaim 'He is not here.  He is Risen! However, the books of 1 and 2 Peter are not about the experiences he personally experienced, but the Authority and Trustworthiness of the SCRIPTURE.  It is the Scripture that is our foundation of faith.  And as an personal eyewitness, Peter says we can Believe it is true.
