Gary discusses Revelation 20 and the enduring topic of the thousand years and the various millennial positions found among Christians. None of the major positions base their view explicitly on the small amount of information found in Revelation 20, which means they look elsewhere in the Bible for support. 

Removing the Ten Commandments from schools does not eliminate moral instruction but replaces one moral framework with another. There must be a definitive and final legal standard of appeal to justify moral decisions at the personal and governmental levels. If not, then one judge’s opinion is as good (or as bad) as another: “Everyone did what was right in their own eyes” (Judges 17:6).

Gary responds to two recent statements from Max Lucado and Michael Youssef regarding modern events as being a fulfillment of "end-times" predictions. Gary shows how everything they say is pointing to the last days has already been fulfilled in the first century. We are reading history, not prophecy, in Matthew 24.

Gary continues his talk on the Christian worldview. He discusses the concept of "borrowed capital," or how non-Christians steal morality and ethics from Christians in order to argue against them. Only Christianity provides the moral and ethical foundation for life; an evolutionary worldview can provide only an "everyone for themselves" approach to life. There is no love, equality, family, or compassion in a random chance world.

From the archives: The Gospel of Jesus was "a stumbling block to the Jews and foolishness to the Gentiles" (1 Corinthians 1:23). Despite being in the cultural minority, the early church "turned the world upside down" (Acts 17:6). Gary discusses the Christian worldview, how we got where we are today, and how we get back to being world-changers.

A Rolling Stone magazine reporter went into an event "undercover" posing as a conservative and supposedly got the dirt on Chief Justice Alito. It's a tired tactic, and didn't even remotely prove what the reporter was hoping. Gary gives a quick history lesson to set the record straight.

Gary discusses the concept of "church ages" and what the letters to the seven churches in Revelation 2 and 3 represent. Are we in the "last age," the Laodicean age? Or could the text simply mean what it says and be referring to seven historical churches in the mid-first century? And does this mean that Revelation 2 and 3 mean nothing to us today?

Gary concludes his interview with Steve Deace about eschatology. Terms are defined, views are set forth, and questions are asked. Bible prophecy and "end-time" events can be controversial, but Gary keeps his interpretation tied to Scripture without appealing to current events.

Gary was recently interviewed by Steve Deace about Bible prophecy and eschatology. In this first part, Gary defines terms and gives a quick method of interpretation (hermeneutics) for Christians to follow as they read their Bibles and encounter difficult passages. It's not wise to always rely on the "experts" (who have been wrong over and over and over again).

Gary responds to a recent podcast critiquing aspects of his interpretation of Bible prophecy. One of Steve Deace's producers (Aaron McIntire) has his own "Ask Me Anything" show and answered a question about why he was not convinced by Gary's view of the man of lawlessness. Gary gives further exegesis for his own first-century fulfillment view.
