(When Revelation Gives Way to Reconstruction — Post 16) One of the quiet marks of the last days is not outright heresy, but reverence without authority. Never before has the Church had more information about Jesus—His words cataloged, His movements harmonized, His life reconstructed in detail—while simultaneously lacking confidence in what His death, resurrection, and…
(Truth in the Last Days — Post 23) After examining prophecy systems, Zionist expectations, timeline reconstructions, and interpretive traditions that have displaced Christ from the center of Scripture, the question that remains is simple: What does apostolic Christianity actually look like? The goal of this series has not been to create a new system or…
(Truth in the Last Days — Post 21) A Biblical Answer to a Difficult Question One question that frequently arises in conversations about the Middle East is this: Why does the world seem to be against Israel and the Jewish people?

Series: Hard Questions, Holy Answers — Post 37 The Original Apostolic Office Cannot Be Repeated There is much discussion today about apostles. Some deny that apostles exist at all.
