Prophecy Episodes

I listened to a recent podcast by Tom Bilyeu, and it is brilliant in its scope. But I don't think it goes far enough, and in Tom's secular world, it wouldn't. Tom is not coming at this from Scripture, so you might write off the title of his video as nothing but clickbait: "AI Antichrist." Don't. You can watch the whole thing here: A.I. AntiChrist. It's worth watching, and worth understanding. Tom is a marketer who built and sold a company, and he knows what a product launch looks like. What he s...

Solving the Mystery of the Restrainer was the subject of a recent podcast. However, once we landed on the identity of the restrainer, we noticed a whole new window of revelation open. The baseball coach or the tennis coach refers to the follow-through. You don’t swing at the ball; you swing through it. Done correctly, the ball flies much farther. The original article opened some doors that were literally that - open. Once you walk through the doors, you see what’s on the other side with amazing...

There’s a passage that was uttered by Paul in Thessalonians that has puzzled Christians for centuries: 2 Thessalonians 2-5-7. Something or someone was restraining the full appearance of the lawless one until God's appointed time. Paul assumes his readers knew the identity of this restraining force from previous teaching. There are many theories and that’s all that you can call them. And that’s how we left it in our prior podcast. But then I decided to dig deeper on the premise that no, we don’...

We’ve fallen for this, I admit it. I mean us too. Rabbit Holes and Meditations is a journey. You can easily pull up our podcasts on Rapture and see a variety of interpretations. We don’t hide what we used to believe. The point is that we keep searching. Today, I rest in this one thought. If a person can imagine an end times scenario where he is looking up to the heavens and wondering why he is still standing there and his brother was taken, wondering why perhaps his brother was raptured and he ...

I know you're hearing it in every religious circle. We are in end times. Right? It's right around the corner. We will see Christ return in our lifetime. There is a lot going on in the world. Iran! AI! Economic uncertainty. Christian persecution (if you're not seeing this, you have to perhaps look outside your own social bubble), Political uncertainty. Transhumanism. Israel instability. Ukraine. and on and on. And very often, in that same circle, the is a person with the charts - mapping out th...

I was just watching the news this morning and wondering what the world would be like if we consumed our Bible like we do the news. Soundbites curated by those hearing the news and changing the channel or switching to a different feed when the news doesn’t just fit what you believe to be true. I think we live our daily lives in our own curated state of delusion sometimes. So today, you are confronted with the debate of the Christian and the Muslim. You switch to the proper channel that feeds you...

We recently discussed two corrections associated with modern Biblical prophecy. The Holy of Holies of Bible Prophecy, and The Continual were discussed in previous podcasts deconstructing the text in Daniel 9 and in Daniel 12 respectively. This podcast posits the theory that there are two deceptions running concurrently. There is the false religion which details the Islam religion. It is not just a counterfeit to Christianity, it’s end times eschatology mirrors Christian end times even with a cas...

In our last study, we asked a single question about Daniel chapter nine, verse twenty-seven: where does the text say that the one who confirms the covenant is the Antichrist? The answer was that it doesn't. The identification is supplied. But an alert reader has a comeback ready, and it's a good one. It's three chapters later. Daniel twelve, verse eleven — the daily sacrifice taken away, the abomination set up, twelve hundred and ninety days counted from that moment. That's the end. That's futu...

A well-known pastor recently laid out thirty-seven numbered events of the end times in under an hour — the rapture, the treaty, the temple, the mark, Armageddon, the kingdom. Rapid-fire citations. Confident delivery. And one instruction repeated to his audience: don't listen to me — go check the Bible yourself. So we did. What we found wasn't heresy. It was something more interesting. All thirty-seven points hang from a single word in Daniel 9:27 — the pronoun "he." Who confirms the covenant wi...

Ask any Christian for a who’s who as it relates to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and you’ll get a straight-up answer. But flip the script and ask about Satan, the Beast, the False Prophet, the Image of the Beast, and you start raising an eyebrow or two. In this podcast, we want to clear up some of that confusion.

I don't get rattled much by what's going on in the world, but the production of this podcast has stirred some anxiousness deep in my soul. Not because of what Revelation says, but because of the plausibility of what we're presenting. Everybody watching the field of AI has no doubt crossed paths with Yampolskiy. We watched an interview with him and then asked a simple question. Can we extrapolate what Yampolskiy is saying and overlay it on the text of Revelation? Just to begin with a guardrail ...

For three thousand years the prophets mocked the idols of the nations with a single taunt: "They have mouths, but they speak not... there is no breath at all in the midst of it" (Psalm 115:5; Habakkuk 2:19). Every idol in history was silent. Then Revelation 13 describes the day the silence ends — an image made by human hands, given breath, that speaks, deceives, and enforces worship. This podcast highlights a study that builds from the ground up, the way a Berean would. Four footings, poured ...

If you have followed this podcast for some time, you might detect some discrepancies. And you would be right. I’m not what many would call a seasoned Christian. My journey as a Christian has been but a few short years. Perhaps my life was preparing me for the journey, only God can say, because when I finally embarked on this journey, it was what many would describe as fervent, zealous - even fanatical if you ask some. I have a “four to eight” program (Go to bed at 4 PM, get up at 4 AM, study un...

I know the questions. I was a staunch atheist before I ever took the bible seriously. These will throw any Christian off his game: Where did the dinosaurs come from? Why aren’t pyramids ever mentioned in the bible? Our science dates the earth millions of years before Genesis… how does the Bible explain that? There are monolithic structures that not only pre-date the bible, they pre-date humanity if you consider the biblical timeline of 6000 years plus or minus. How was that possible? That’s...

Typically when you embark on a journey to study end times in the bible you’re are bounced between Revelation, Daniel, Ezekiel, Zechariah with a little Matthew 24 and 24. Here, though, in season 5, As we walk through the Bible landing where God interacted with His creation, we are way back at the beginning and whatever the temple of the day was, we’re still seeing the connections leap off the page straight through the cross into Revelation. Honestly, we were hoping this would happen. We wanted to...

Today we're continuing our journey through one of the most important themes in all of Scripture: the temple. When most Christians hear the word temple, they think of a building in Jerusalem. Some think of Solomon's Temple. Others think of a future temple still waiting to be built. But what if the story begins much earlier than that? What if the temple was never primarily about a building at all? In this series, we're tracing the temple from its very beginning, following the thread from Eden th...

One of the temptations of reading ancient biblical text is to dismiss it as, well, ancient. Like it doesn’t apply to us. We are much more sophisticated, more cultured, wiser, smarter, more civilized. At least that is probably the thought running through a passive reading… until you pull back the curtain on today.

What is it about the word “No”? I don’t know about you, but for most people, the minute they are told they can’t have something, they want it. Or at the very least, they are curious. A friend of mine has a two-year-old, and up until now, he’s gotten everything he’s asked for. Now, he’s learning the word “no”. There is a reason we call this age the “terrible twos”! Inevitably, when the boundary is set, a person wants to see what is on the other side of the barrier. And that doesn’t stop at the a...

You might have thought that winning the ground was the grand finale. That should have been it. But the battle we fight is far deeper and far more pervasive. The battle you and I face as Christians is in the spiritual realm. Paul stated it plainly: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” — Ephesians 6:12 Notes for the Air War Episode Link: https://www....

You can read the Bible as a historical text, but if you do that, you’ll be hard-pressed to explain several passages that God-fearing people are often pressed with. One such question that often goes unanswered is how a loving God can command the utter destruction of entire races. One such example: Deuteronomy 20:16-18 - However, in the cities of the nations the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. 17 Completely destroy them—the Hittites, Amorit...

In our last study, we addressed the question of the rapture head-on. This taught me a lesson that I sometimes forget. Read the text! Understand the context. It seems that no matter what denomination and no matter how well-versed the pastor is, the theory of the rapture changes like changing the channel on the television. The pastor is the news anchor. If you don’t like CNN’s version, flip over to Fox. If you don’t like Fox’s version, flip over to MSNBC. Nobody seems to be reporting the event. Th...

Probably nothing is debated more among Christians than the Rapture. I was just watching a sermon by Pastor David Jeremiah, and I think even he is caught up in the systems developed to predict and explain the rapture of the church. Frankly, while I love this pastor and, like so many others, I think he gets it wrong on this issue. Full disclosure. If you follow me through this podcast, from the beginning, I present all the angles. It is really a hard question, and if you rely on Pastors and Teach...

So, I’m in the midst of writing a book and the first part takes place in Israel and I’m trying, as a Christian, to understand the Bible from a Jewish perspective. IT IS REALLY HARD! I don’t know if it’s just because I have not engaged the scripture so much from that side of the fence or not. In a game of Christian vs. Jew, the Christian ideology seems to make more sense of the text. The Jews have an obstacle that they have to dance around - namely Jesus and the Cross. Notes for Jews and Chris...

We take a break from the Red-Letter journey today to just discuss the elephant in the room. And to be sure, your elephant might look different. You could be looking at the tail or a foot. Or at the trunk. You're just a speck on this huge planet, and your perspective will drive your agenda... or perhaps your agenda will drive your perspective. I'm not sure in which direction we travel. As I was looking at this, I recognized that I, too, have an agenda. So does President Trump. So does Netanyahu. ...
