 In this installment of his series, retired pastor Charles Douglas opens by briefly recommending RTN (a Christian TV/radio network offering music and Bible teaching) and then turns to the third theme: “The Beast to Come” —the Antichrist as the ultimate personification of false anointing under Satan. Framing the topic as a set of starter thoughts for personal or small-group study rather than an exh...

How Much Must I Forgive Is there a limit to forgiveness? How many times must a Christian forgive someone who continues to hurt them? Sandy Simpson addresses these difficult questions by examining Jesus’ teaching on limitless forgiveness and the dangers of keeping score. This lesson confronts the human desire for revenge and justice while pointing listeners to Christ’s example of mercy. Forgiveness...

Amos 5–6 — Seek God and Live!! What does God actually want from His people? In Amos 5–6, the answer is not more empty ceremony, but genuine repentance and renewed devotion: “Seek Me and live.” Pastor Marco walks through Amos’s urgent call to abandon false confidence, religious performance, and self-indulgent ease—and to pursue the Lord with integrity, justice, and righteousness. These chapters con...

 He Changes the Times and Seasons: God’s Sovereignty Over History, Kings, and the Destiny of Israel   In this wide-ranging exposition anchored in Daniel 2:21 , Jacob Prasch unfolds a biblical theology of history, arguing that God—not human rulers, ideologies, or institutions—ultimately governs the rise and fall of nations. Tracing Scripture alongside modern history, Prasch explains how God has rep...

 This teaching lays a foundational warning against building doctrine on opinion, extrapolation, or tradition rather than clear biblical exegesis , repeatedly emphasizing “text, context, and original meaning.” Using the pre-tribulation rapture as a primary case study, the speaker argues that its modern form originates in 19th-century theology, lacks explicit scriptural support, and has been admitte...

 In this teaching from Jeremiah chapter 17 , the focus turns to the spiritual anatomy of fallen humanity—particularly the deceitfulness of the human heart and the danger of trusting in man rather than in the Lord. Drawing connections between Jeremiah’s warnings before the Babylonian captivity, the ministry of Jesus, and the realities of the last days, this message explores idolatry, false religion...

 In this episode, retired pastor Charles Douglas continues his series by shifting from “fake anointing” to genuine anointing , first briefly recommending the RTN Christian broadcasting network as a free resource for sound doctrine, then settling into a structured, Bible-centered teaching meant to feel like “friends” studying together at home. Using a historical-grammatical foundation with selectiv...

Why Must I Forgive Why does Scripture place such a strong emphasis on forgiveness? In this teaching, Sandy Simpson explores the theological and spiritual reasons forgiveness is mandatory for believers. He shows how forgiveness is inseparably connected to our own relationship with God, our prayer life, and our spiritual growth. Refusing to forgive doesn’t punish the offender—it imprisons the one ho...

Catching Up With Jacob is political commentary from a Biblical perspective. This week join Jay, Jacob, Marco, Davy, Elon, and Kristoff as they discuss today's hot topics.  Originally recorded January 16, 2026.

Amos 4 — Hear This! In Amos 4, God’s voice cuts through noise, comfort, and denial: “Hear this!” Pastor Marco calls attention to the prophetic warning that outward religion cannot cover inward rebellion—and that God’s discipline is often meant to awaken, not merely punish. As Israel remains stubborn despite repeated mercies and warnings, the chapter becomes a mirror for any generation tempted to i...

 The Iron and the Clay (Part Two): Government, Principalities, and the Coming Clash Between Christ and Antichrist   In this extended continuation of The Iron and the Clay , Jacob Prasch expounds Daniel 2 to address the biblical tension between submission to civil authority and obedience to God, showing how political power, religious systems, technology, and economics are all influenced by unseen s...

 Drawing extensively from Revelation 2–3 , this teaching examines the seven churches as real historical congregations, recurring spiritual conditions present throughout church history, and a prophetic mirror especially relevant to the last days. Beginning with Christ’s warning to Laodicea , the speaker exposes how material affluence, consumerism, and “people’s opinions” have produced a lukewarm ch...

 In this extended exposition of Jeremiah 16 , Jacob Prasch interprets the prophet’s warnings as both an immediate judgment on Judah and a far-reaching foreshadowing of the last days, closely linking the chapter to Jesus’ Olivet Discourse and the book of Revelation. Prasch explains why God commands Jeremiah not to marry, mourn, or celebrate—signs that divine compassion has been withdrawn from a soc...

In this teaching, Charles Douglas , an 84-year-old retired pastor with decades of ministry experience, introduces a three-part series focused on discerning fake versus genuine anointing in an age saturated with voices, prophecies, and spiritual claims amplified by modern technology. Drawing carefully from Scripture—including 1 Corinthians 14, 2 Peter, Acts 8, Exodus, and Revelation—he warns agains...

How Must I Forgive What does biblical forgiveness actually look like in practice? In this lesson, Sandy Simpson explains how Christians are called to forgive—not emotionally, conditionally, or superficially—but biblically. Forgiveness is an act of obedience grounded in Christ’s sacrifice, not a feeling or a denial of wrongdoing. This teaching clarifies the difference between forgiving and excusing...

Amos 2:6–3 — Crime and Punishment The spiral tightens, and Amos now lands on Israel’s sins—crimes not merely “out there” among the nations, but inside the covenant community itself. Pastor Marco unpacks how God holds His own people to account for corruption, exploitation, and hypocritical religion, showing that privilege never cancels responsibility. In these chapters, God exposes the way injustic...

 Daniel’s Iron and Clay: Government, Principalities, and God’s Hand in the Rise and Fall of Nations (Part One)   In this first part of The Iron and the Clay , the teaching opens in Book of Daniel 2:21 , unfolding a sweeping biblical framework for understanding history, politics, and prophecy through the lens of divine sovereignty. Drawing from Daniel, Zechariah, Job, Revelation, and modern history...

Using his testimony as a starting point,  this message tackles Jacob's assigned theme: how prophecy and evangelism are inseparably linked . Anchoring the talk in Isaiah 1:18 (“Come now, let us reason together”), he argues that the gospel is not a blind leap but intellectually credible and historically defensible , contrasting it with what he portrays as religion’s subjective claims and man-ma...

 Continuing his exposition of Jeremiah 15 , Jacob Prasch presents a sobering theology of judgment, repentance, and perseverance for believers living amid apostasy. He explains that when a nation—or a church—passes a moral point of no return, God may cease calling it to repentance and instead give it over to judgment, even while still calling individuals to faithfulness. Tracing the chapter’s image...

 In Ken’s Corner Episode 81 , James Kitazaki and Ken Smith (joined by Brett) discuss a range of current-events headlines, cultural trends, and theological issues through a Christian worldview. Topics include disputed claims about public health and cancer statistics, allegations of large-scale fraud involving public programs, concerns about expanding surveillance powers in Germany, debate over anni...

This week Sandy begins a multi-week series on forgiveness.  In this opening lesson, Sandy Simpson exposes the spiritual, emotional, and even physical damage caused by unforgiveness. Drawing from Scripture, personal testimony, and real-world examples, he shows how bitterness becomes a root that grows into anger, violence, self-destruction, and spiritual bondage. Unforgiveness is not a harmless atti...

This week Pastor Marco begins a 7-week study in the Book of Amos.  Pastor Marco Quintana introduces the Book of Amos and the prophet behind it—an unlikely messenger from Tekoa, a shepherd and tender of sycamore trees, sent to confront a prosperous but spiritually rotten nation. In this opening teaching, we explore why “majoring on the minors” reveals the righteousness and holiness of God, how pros...
