Ready for the Alarm?
5:00 AM comes early at the Evans house. The alarm sounds and we soon rise to begin the day. Both of us head to work and the children must be readied for school. Getting out of bed later than 5:00 always causes trouble. I awoke one day this week four short minutes before the alarm […]
Rapture Failure
Hello? Is anyone here? Well, if you are reading this it must mean that you either missed the “rapture” or Harold Camping was dead wrong again with his date setting hysteria.

Apocalyptic Literature
The Bible can be understood. God would never tease mankind by giving him a message only to make it incomprehensible. We can know the truth (John 8:32).

Why A Thousand Years?
Why are present day Christians so enamored over the idea of an earthly, physical reign of Christ upon David’s throne in Jerusalem? Previously in [cref the-thousand-year-reign-of-christ] we showed from the Bible that there is no such physical reign.
