Biblical Necessity of the 7-Year Tribulation :: By Jonathan Brentner
The Bible tells us there must be a seven-year period when God again turns His attention to the Jewish people and Jerusalem. The length of this still future time comes the prophet Daniel, who specified seventy weeks of years, during which time the Lord will complete His redemptive purposes for choosing Israel (Daniel 9:24-27). Why…

Refuting the Great Lie About Our Blessed Hope :: By Jonathan Brentner
It’s the most persistent lie concerning the Rapture. I have either read or heard it more times than I can count. Though it’s been debunked countless times, a great many saints remain convinced that the doctrine of the pre-Tribulation Rapture originated with John Darby. Although they insist that no one believed in such a thing…

Can God Change His Mind About Israel, or About Us? :: By Jonathan Brentner
What I’m about to write may seem unlikely. How is it possible that a topic unrelated to Bible prophecy could further validate my conviction concerning the Lord’s promise to restore a glorious kingdom to Israel? I’m totally persuaded that Scripture confirms the nation’s continuing place in God’s sovereign plan for the future. But long ago,…

Is America at the End of the Road? :: By Jonathan Brentner
Is America nearing the end of the road as a nation? Have we reached a place similar to that of Judah just before Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylonians destroyed Jerusalem and the temple? Three times in the book of Jeremiah, the Lord tells the prophet not …

The Magnificent Glory That Awaits Us in Eternity :: By Jonathan Brentner
It’s a word that we often hear, but what does “glory” really signify? A popular worship song includes the phrase “show us your glory,” but can that request have an eternal ring to it? Dictionaries provide several facets of meaning for the word “glory.”…

Don’t Look Out the Window :: By Jonathan Brentner
The video was unforgettable. A woman on a train remained focused on her smartphone despite widespread chaos outside her window. As she smiled at the images in her phone, only a pane of glass separated her from the destruction and fires along the path of the train. The short video aptly sums up modern life…

Provocations :: By Jonathan Brentner
In 1962, Russia began setting up missile bases in Cuba that were capable of firing nuclear weapons into the U.S. President John F. Kennedy responded boldly to the threat and initiated a “quarantine” of the island nation designed to stop Russia from delivering atomic weapons to Cuba. (“Quarantine” sounded less hostile than calling it a…

Jesus’ Preeminence… Hope In His Soon Appearing :: By Jonathan Brentner
Jesus’ Preeminence Verifies Our Hope in His Soon Appearing At the church that meets in our home, we recently read and discussed the words of Colossians 1:15-20: “He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible,…

The Comings and Goings of Bible Prophecy :: By Jonathan Brentner
On October 25, 1964, Minnesota Vikings’ star defensive end Jim Marshall recovered a fumbled football but then ran sixty-six yards the wrong way, ending up in his own end zone. Thinking he had scored a touchdown, he spiked the ball, which sailed out of bounds, resulting in a safety and two points for the opposing…

Debunking Popular Lies about Premillennialism :: By Jonathan Brentner
Has the definition of Premillennialism changed in the past few decades? I ask this because during the past several years, several pastors told me they were Premillennial, but they didn’t adhere to a futuristic interpretation of the book of Revelation or the restoration of a kingdom to Israel. For me, Premillennialism has always signified a…

The Anchor of Our Blessed Hope in Perilous Times :: By Jonathan Brentner
We live in “perilous times” on steroids. In one sense, the characteristics that Paul wrote about in 2 Timothy 3:1-5 have been true of godless people down through the ages. Such people have always made life “perilous” for those with biblical faith. On t…

The Epidemic of Deception :: By Jonathan Brentner
As the spirit of the antichrist gains more strength in our world each and every day, it helps to remember what Jesus said about the one behind it, the devil himself. In John 8:44, Jesus characterized Satan as “a murderer from the beginning” and “a liar…

It’s Anti-Semitism: What Else Could It Be? :: By Jonathan Brentner
I’ve known for many years that the time would come when the United States would no longer defend Israel. The Gog/Magog prophecy of Ezekiel 38-39 is remarkable for its absence of any nation, including America, coming to the aid of Israel as massive forces invade the Land. I could never have imagined, however, that a…

Suddenly :: By Jonathan Brentner
Suddenly! The word increasingly strikes fear into the hearts of many as they watch young and healthy people abruptly drop dead, just as Damon Hamlin did before a national audience. Unlike most, he had medical help immediately after he collapsed. The qu…

God Sees Our Distress; Our Deliverer Is Coming :: By Jonathan Brentner

5 Popular Lies About the Rapture :: By Jonathan Brentner
One of the most unpopular beliefs among Christians today is that of the pre-Tribulation Rapture. Many not only scoff at our expectation of meeting Jesus in the air but also ridicule those of us who believe it could happen at any moment. The resulting silence in most pulpits today regarding our “blessed hope” has opened…

The Necessity of Imminency :: By Jonathan Brentner
Imminency. It tells us we live on the edge of eternity. The Rapture might happen at any moment. However, as the moments become days and then weeks, months, and years, we struggle to maintain our eager anticipation of Jesus’s appearing. Many of us wonder how much closer we will get to the start of the…

The Bubble of Normalcy :: By Jonathan Brentner
In 1920, Warren G. Harding ran for president with the campaign slogan of “The return to normalcy.” Despite harsh criticism for his use of such an obscure word at the time, the idea of returning to “normalcy” swept him into the Oval Office. His motto ha…

11 Compelling Signs of the Last Days :: By Jonathan Brentner
Is today any different than tumultuous times in past history, such as those of the world wars in the past century? Yes, we live in the shadow of the Tribulation period amid what I refer to as mild precursors compared to that which will happen after the Rapture of the church. I’m convinced that we…

What Lies Behind Today’s Siege of Bible Prophecy? :: By Jonathan Brentner
Bible prophecy is under siege today; it’s become the target of abuse from both believers and those outside of Christ. Jan Markell’s article on the Harbinger’s Dailly website, We Are Under Siege Like Never Before, aptly sums up the increasing intensity of attacks on our belief in the pre-Tribulation Rapture, which often overflow to the…

The Late Great United States :: By Jonathan Brentner
The words leaped off the page. As I read Habakkuk 1:2-4, I thought about the United States. The prophet’s complaint about the violence, iniquity, and injustice in ancient Judah matched everything that I saw all around me. How much longer could it be before God’s judgment falls on America? That was over twenty-five years ago.…

Finding Peace in a Fear-Mongering World? :: By Jonathan Brentner
A realistic look at our world is enough to generate much anxiety. The widespread wickedness, violence, government corruption, and continual rumors of WWIII and/or terrorist attacks often set off alarms concerning our future well-being. I write as one who is not immune to the panic that comes from living amid the multiple threats to our…
