The Danger of Prophetic Inevitability Oct 20, 2023

Show notes

Gary discusses Dwight Wilson's 1977 book, Armageddon Now. As a premillennialist himself, Wilson was able to clearly see the many mistaken prophecies of his own tradition, especially with the World Wars. Wilson maintains that it was the view of a predicted Jewish persecution prior to the Second Coming that led to a "hands off" policy when it came to speaking out against anti-Semitism.

Dispensationalism's Future Holocaust Problem Oct 18, 2023

Show notes

The Dispensational system has a horrific future in store for Jewish people living in Israel. It teaches that the Jews will go through another holocaust, one that won't even compare to World War 2. Proponents of the system often use the Replacement Theology card as a way to cover up their bad exegetical work, especially the inevitable future Jewish holocaust problem.

Answering the Charge of Replacement Theology Oct 16, 2023

Show notes

Gary answers the perennial charge of "replacement theology," a phrase that is designed to end debate by those who teach that the church and Israel are distinct and separate. Israel was the original "church in the wilderness" and the modern Christian church—made of believers from ALL the nations—is what the Bible was predicting throughout the Old Testament and proclaiming in the New Testament.

Ignoring Biblical History Oct 13, 2023

Show notes

Gary discusses a new article by Greg Laurie that makes the (same old) argument that modern events "could be" fulfilling biblical prophecies. As Gary makes clear, writers and pastors like Laurie ignore the actual events and actual countries in the Bible that are actual fulfillments of the ancient prophecies in order to make them fit our own day. This is not how exegesis or hermeneutics should be done.

Israel, Gaza, and the Last Days Oct 11, 2023

Show notes

It is vital that Christians understand this issue and don't fall into the political traps being laid everywhere both in the Middle East and the media's evaluation of modern Israel. What is happening in Gaza right now is not a fulfillment of biblical prophecy and doesn't get us any closer to "the end." It is a political war being fought for political reasons.

Pulpits and Politics Oct 09, 2023

Show notes

Gary discusses an article from the Christianity and Civilization series about politics, Christians, and activism. It's amazing how despite the times, not much has changed and the arguments, strategies, and solutions are still the same. We need to now our history in order to understand our present and how to change the future.

The Gaetzful 8 and Political Christians Oct 06, 2023

Show notes

Gary discusses the recent ousting of Speaker McCarthy and what political writer Jason Whitlock calls the "Gaetzful 8." Whitlock compares the 8 to Gideon's 300 and the idea of the remnant. Pastors are also (slowly) beginning to wake up and get vocal. All good things, but we must always be mindful of history, as Gary is quick to point out.

The Bible is the Blueprint Oct 04, 2023

Show notes

Gary discusses a speech given by Pastor Jack Hibbs to the Family Research Council about the state of the culture. While much of what Pastor Hibbs says is true and good, his eschatology and "last days" teaching is counterproductive, and even contrary, to his larger message. He wants Christians and the Church to get involved and be salt and light in a tasteless and dark world, yet he also teaches that much of the cultural darkness is an indication that Jesus' return is near.

Good News in the News Oct 02, 2023

Show notes

Gary highlights a few recent news articles that are actually encouraging. Most major news stories are negative and stories that do not support the mainstream narrative are usually buried. Never fear though, Gary has done the searching and the researching so you can be encouraged too.

The Heavens Will be Shaken Sep 29, 2023

Show notes

Gary answers a listener question regarding Matthew 24:29-31. Did stars fall from the sky and did the angels gather the elect in AD 70? If so, how? When interpreting Scripture, we must not let the events change the time. If a particular event doesn't meet our expectations, we need to ask why according to the rest of the Bible, not our assumptions. The time texts constrain the events to a particular timeframe. "This generation," "immediately," "right at the door," and other phrases indicate the time all of the events mentioned in Matthew 24 will happen.
