Worthy To Escape? A Teaching That Some Believers Will Be LEFT BEHIND Bec...

Live holy or be left behind at the Rapture? What? Is that REALLY what the Bible teaches?

Anyone who teaches this is WRONG. We are saved through Christ's righteousness that He gave us at the cross, not by our own works of "holiness", which is literally impossible to do.

Otherwise, Christ died for nothing and God's Grace is in vain.

Why the Rapture of the Church Has To Happen Before the Seven Year Tribul...

Part 3 of Pastor JD's series of why the Rapture has to happen before the Tribulation. It's a long message today, over an hour, but parallel's the ancient Jewish wedding with the Wedding of the Bridegroom. When you realize Christ is very purposefully comparing our relationship to Him as His Bride, you will understand what God is doing prophetically with regards to an actual Jewish wedding ceremony for His Son.

Iran's Threats to Israel & Ezekiel 38

Iran Warns Israel of Invasion from Gary Stearman on Vimeo.

This is an eye-opening report from Gary Stearman's Prophecy in the News program about where the Middle East is in relation to prophecy, specifically the prophecy in Ezekiel 38.  This is the prophecy where Gog/Magog comes against Israel in the end of days, along with Persia (Iran).  Things are heating up and we can no longer ignore this.  Is the Day of the Lord almost upon us?

Palestinians Set Date for Statehood Showdown at UN

http://www.jpost.com/DiplomacyAndPolitics/Article.aspx?id=233625

September 20th is the day the UN will vote if Palestine becomes a state.

When Christ gave His parable about the fig tree in Matthew 24 and Luke 21, He was speaking of Israel.  Israel is often seen as a "fig tree" throughout Scripture.  Christ mentioned in Matthew 24:32-33:

“Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near.  Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door."

This parable is talking about the rebirth of Israel as a nation.  They were scattered in 70 AD after the Romans leveled their second temple and only became a nation again just recently, in 1948.

Therefore, when Israel begins "sprouting" again -- meaning, becoming a prosperous nation, you know the end is near, even at the doors.

What's interesting about this parable is the fact that Jesus never mentions the "pruning" of the fig tree as a sign to watch for His Coming.  And God's land (Israel, the fig tree) is about to get pruned to make way for Palestine.

Could we be taken out beforehand?  I don't know, but you cannot deny it will be interesting to see how everything goes down in the next 5 weeks...
