If you wish to contact me with any comments, questions, suggestions, etc plea...

Send us Fan Mail The church is in dire straights as we see fault lines threatening to divide her into pieces.  It seems that the charismatic church is undergaing severe exposure, and the Evangelical church is dividing ever things like "Christian Zionism".   Into this sadly  impure mixture, we want to contribute the healing message of the Lamb, but not just the lamb as we are familiar wit...

Send us Fan Mail " A darkness that can be felt" was how this special form of judgmental darkness is described in Exodus 10.  The Exodus darkness was only a three-day long preview of what happens when God plunges the "Throne of the Beast" into the anguish of the darkness of Judgment.  Here is that intense account. Revelation 16:10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the thron...

Send us Fan Mail When considering the subject of God's wrath, we must consider the dual and transcendent expression of that wrath.  It is not simply wrath expressed in a moment of time on the rebellious sons of Adam.  That is only half of the story.  We must look at both major expressions of God's wrath -- one upon the earth, the other in the bosom of His Son.  Revelation 15:5 After this...
