Last week, we touched on the differences between living in fear and living by faith. This week, I want to pause our discussion of Revelation to talk about to keep fear from overtaking our faith as we get closer to the end of the age. Below is an excerpt from my book Overcoming Fear . *** In these...

Some consider it dangerous to seek revelation from angels, since cults and sects have started that way. That is true, so we need to acknowledge and learn how this has happened to avoid the same mistakes. It is dangerous to receive revelations from angels, but probably not as dangerous as not...

We are promised a blessing just for reading the book of Revelation, as stated in Revelation 1:3: “Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it.” In Revelation 22:7, we are promised, “Blessed is he who keeps the words of the...

We are promised a blessing just for reading the book of Revelation. However, throughout history, cults have been started by people who believed they had a special understanding of the book of Revelation no one else did. One of the definitions of a cult is that the people tend to listen to only one...

We must not add or subtract from those, regardless of how ambiguous they may seem to us. It has been said that...

I am 75 years old—three-quarters of a century old—and think I may have lived the best life ever lived on the planet. It keeps getting better. I’ve had my share of trials, some of which I wondered if I would survive. However, I can affirm the promise in Romans 8:28, that “All things work together...

How do we distinguish between the church that the Lord is building and the one that men are building? There is a saying that, “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” The “good” side of the Tree of Knowledge is just as deadly as the “evil” side. The fruit of both is poison. This is not to...

We have been reduced to a world that now has only one hope that can keep us from the worst tyranny in history: a revival and an awakening that surpasses all previous ones. We need for the Lord to move as He has not done on the earth before, and that is what He plans to do. We need the greatest...
