The Preterist Charismatic Movement aims to raise apostles to establish the Church in the workplace, transforming cities, states, and nations into Christian culture. Often called Partial Preterism, or 7 Mountain Dominionism. I have written a simplified description of this Movement and its theological and social implications. In some portions of this eBook, I have included more secular views of Charismatic Preterism to demonstrate concerns held within modern culture. Even though I am firmly committed to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, I see those very concerns held by many outside the ...

The vulnerability of the United States to a dirty bomb attack does not stem solely from the availability of radioactive materials, however. The nation's vast and interconnected infrastructure presents both opportunities and challenges when it comes to defending against such threats. Key aspects of modern life—power grids, transportation networks, communication systems, and financial markets—are deeply intertwined, creating points of potential weakness that a well-coordinated attack could exploit. If dirty bombs were used in conjunction with other forms of disruption, such as ...

In this present age, God’s judgment manifests in various forms of correction and discipline. These are intended to address sin, foster repentance, and encourage holiness among His people. The New Testament provides numerous examples of this corrective judgment. One of the most striking examples is found in the account of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5. This couple lied to the Holy Spirit about the proceeds of a land sale, and as a result, they were struck dead. This severe judgment served as a powerful warning to the early Church about the seriousness of sin within the body of Christ. It ...

A deepened relationship with Jesus naturally leads to spiritual growth and maturity. As believers spend more time with Him, surrendering and trusting, they grow in wisdom, faith, and character. Every act of surrender provides an opportunity for believers to witness God's faithfulness. As they let go and trust Him, they see how He works things out for their good, which in turn deepens their love and trust in Him. Surrender means inviting Jesus to be an active part of one's journey. It's about sharing life's highs and lows with Him, celebrating victories together, and seeking His comfort in ...

The concept of "Christ in you" is a profound theological cornerstone within Christian doctrine, embodying the intimate and transformative relationship between the believer and Jesus Christ. This notion transcends mere intellectual assent to faith and delves deeply into the mystical union and indwelling presence of Christ within the hearts and lives of believers. The phrase "Christ in you" is derived from Colossians 1:27, where the Apostle Paul writes, "To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory." ...

Love Addiction At the heart of pornography addiction lies love addiction, which is a psychological and emotional condition characterized by an unhealthy and often compulsive craving for an idealized, unattainable version of love and intimacy. Love addiction is driven by the need to attain the perfect, flawless form of romantic connection, which is often built on fantasy rather than reality. This idealized version of love is frequently shaped by unrealistic portrayals in the media, including pornography, which distorts one's perception of intimacy and relationships. The Obsession with ...

Kingdom Come is a Book written to address the concerns of the modern charismatic movement called the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR). Kingdom Come is written to give a biblical response to the prevailing theology within the NAR movement, which is Dominion Theology.

The presence of suffering and evil might cause some to question whether God truly remains in control. However, when viewed through the lens of His eternal purposes, it becomes clear that these difficulties are not random acts beyond His power. Instead, God allows evil for a time, using it as a tool to fulfill His greater purposes. Sometimes, this purpose is not immediately visible, and the ways of God remain mysterious to human understanding. Yet, His sovereignty ensures that even the worst tragedies are not outside of His control. Ultimately, God’s control provides comfort, knowing that ...

The sexual revolution in America, which began in earnest during the 1960s and 1970s, has had profound and lasting impacts on society, culture, and morality. At its core, the sexual revolution was a movement that sought to challenge and overturn traditional views on sex, marriage, and personal freedom. What began as a rebellion against conservative social norms has now transformed into a society where sexual expression is viewed as a primary aspect of individual identity, and where biblical morality has increasingly been replaced by secular moral relativism. This shift has led to the ...

In the name of Jesus, the defeated find the anthem of their liberation, and the broken discover the melody of their restoration. This shout of joy is a celebration of the transformative power encapsulated in the name of Jesus. It echoes through testimonies of lives touched by miraculous ...

I have written on a wide range of topics related to spiritual warfare to help equip the saints for this spiritual warfare battle. Let’s walk out the Great Commission to go into all the world and preach the Gospel, and in Jesus' name cast out evil spirits. Let us not faint at the battle with our adversary the devil, as the weapons of our warfare are mighty in God.

This self-revelation of God as “I Am” is more than a theological concept; it sets the stage for understanding the divine nature of Jesus Christ as revealed in the Gospel of John. Throughout the book of John, Jesus declares Himself through a series of seven “I Am” statements, each of which reveals a different aspect of His divine identity and mission. These statements are not isolated claims; they are deeply connected to the self-sufficient and sovereign nature of God as first revealed to Moses. In these “I Am” declarations, Jesus not only identifies Himself with the God of ...

George Orwell’s 1984 was once viewed as a nightmarish dystopian vision, a chilling warning of where society could go if authoritarian regimes gained unchecked power. Written in 1949, it depicted a world of totalitarian control, mass surveillance, and the manipulation of truth, where personal freedom was erased under the shadow of an all-seeing government. While for decades Orwell's fictional universe seemed far removed from reality, today, we are witnessing a startling transformation of many of his imagined dystopian elements into modern-day scenarios. Concepts that were once dismissed as...

"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." – Jim Elliot Jim Elliot, an American Christian missionary, is renowned for his profound statement: This quote encapsulates his belief in the eternal value of spiritual devotion over temporal possessions. Elliot's life exemplified this conviction; in 1956, he was martyred while attempting to evangelize the Huaorani people of Ecuador. His words continue to inspire many to prioritize eternal rewards over worldly gains. Fool's gold, a glittering substance that resembles real gold but lacks its true value, is an ...

Romans 8:36 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Introduction This verse encapsulates the reality of Christian suffering, drawing from the psalmist's lament in Psalm 44:22 and emphasizing the enduring struggle of those who follow Christ. It paints a vivid picture of discipleship marked by sacrifice, perseverance, and an unwavering commitment to God despite facing overwhelming adversities. The imagery of being "killed all the day long" and "sheep for the slaughter" underscores the vulnerability and submission expected ...

Discovering the meanings behind the New Testament Parables as taught by Jesus Christ.

The term "angels of light" appears in the Bible to describe entities that appear righteous, pure, or divine but are deceptive and aligned with evil purposes. This phrase comes directly from 2 Corinthians 11:14, where Paul writes, “And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.” This warning sets the stage for a broader biblical exploration of the concept, shedding light on the deceptive nature of evil forces, their strategies, and how they attempt to lead people away from the truth of God. At its core, the idea of angels of light highlights the spiritual reality ...

The saints must rise to confront the powers of darkness and even cast out evil spirits who have entered the bodies of those they can possess. Learning how to effectively pray to cast about evil spirits is a big part of what Jesus Christ has commissioned his disciples to do. Christians must become equipped in these last days to minister deliverance to those who are demonized. I have written on a wide range of topics related to spiritual warfare to help equip the saints for this spiritual warfare battle. Let us walk out the Great Commission to go into all the world and preach the Gospel, and ...

The sufficiency of grace as it relates to eternal security is a profound and central theme in Christian theology. Grace, defined as the unmerited favor of God, is pivotal for understanding the concept of eternal security—the belief that once a person is truly saved, they remain saved forever. This doctrine is deeply rooted in the New Testament and is supported by numerous scriptural passages that highlight the unchanging and steadfast nature of God's grace. To begin with, the doctrine of eternal security is often encapsulated in the phrase "once saved, always saved." This doctrine asserts...

While the New Testament speaks about believers being judged, it's crucial to note that this judgment is distinct from the final judgment of unbelievers. The focus is on evaluating believers' lives and works, determining rewards or loss of rewards in the kingdom of God. These scriptures collectively form the basis for the understanding that Christians will face judgment at the Second Coming of Christ, emphasizing the importance of a faithful and obedient life. Studying these passages and their interpretations within the broader theological context provides a deeper understanding of the ...
