Q. Rev 2:9: “I know your works, tribulation, and poverty (but you are rich); and I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.”
Rev 3:9: “Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.”
Clearly, in the end-times (i.e. likely right now) there is some group passing itself off as Jewish; being recognized as Jewish on an international level, but is not Jewish. Read Post »

Q. In Isaiah 17, the scripture makes reference to the ’splendor of Jacob will fade.’ This appears immediately after the well-known scripture regarding the destruction of Damascas in one night. Do you believe that a nuclear exchange between Israel and Damascus will be the cause of Israel’s emaciation? Read Post »

Q. I was listening to (a popular TV bible teacher) tonight, and his “question of the week” involved drug use in the Bible. He said that in the book of Revelation, ch.9, those who refused to renounce their sorceries, would be cursed. He said that was a misinterpretation in the Bible, and that it meant “pharmachia” or pharmacy. So which is it? Read Post »

Q. I was wondering if you might be able to comment on a recent article claiming that many of the prophesies of Isaiah 10 and 11 (and Isaiah 30:30-31) that traditionally are understood to have been fulfilled by the Seleucid King Antiochus IV around the time of the Maccabees might instead be prophesies that lie ahead for the Anti-Christ himself.

Q. I have been web surfing, and have come across a growing concern by many, that martial law is on the horizon. Apparently, FEMA has drawn up an extensive list of resistors and dissidents, which is called the Red/Blue lists. It is said the resistors are gun owners, and the dissidents are Christians. If that is possible, then what’s to become of us? I thought we weren’t appointed unto God’s wrath. Your thoughts, please? Read Post »

Un estudio bíblico por Jack Kelley.
De un correo electrónico que recibí esta semana, es obvio que el asunto de la sanidad es de especial importancia y tiene un entendimiento muy variado. A mí me ha quedado claro que muchas personas han formado sus opiniones por dimes y diretes del pasado o por observaciones personales, en vez de la Palabra de Dios.
Luego de años de estudiar lo que la Biblia dice sobre la sanidad me parece que así como Jesús es el mismo ayer, hoy y por los siglos (Hebreos 13:8) y así como Él dijo que cualquiera que tenga fe podrá hacer las cosas que Él hizo (Juan 14:12) los resultados que estamos obteniendo hoy día en la Iglesia Occidental, son muy diferentes de los que describe la Biblia. Una mente lógica solamente puede llegar a la conclusión de que algo ha cambiado, y puesto que Él no cambia, entonces somos nosotros. Read Post »

Q. In a recent answer you said, “Freedom means all the sins of our life have been covered, that we don’t ever have to worry about measuring up. If we slip, as we all do, we’re guaranteed forgiveness each time we ask.”
What if the person slips up and does not ask for forgiveness or does not desire forgiveness and keeps on sinning? Read Post »

Q. I have a comment then a question about it; first I believe that the Word of God is a Word that is intolerant (basically it’s His way or perish). That being said can you help us understand the difference between man’s tolerance and God’s mercy? I believe them to be on totally different ends of the spectrum. Can God be tolerant? I believe not, but yes He is Merciful. Read Post »

Q. Your article on the Nephilim is very fascinating and something I didn’t know much about prior to reading it. I know this question is obviously speculative, but do you believe that Satan might build the anti-Christ an army composed of Nephilim? Is their resurgence possibly taking place already today and are they already beginning to populate the world like they did during the time of Noah? Read Post »
