Netanyahu’s Apology and Erdogan’s Hypocrisy
Most are aware by now that through the pressure of US President Obama, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu recently apologized to Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan for the deaths of nine Muslims who were killed after they violently attacked (and stabbed) several Israeli soldiers as they boarded the Mavi Maramara flotilla. When I heard that Netanyahu had […]
Pope Francis: History’s Final Pope?
I am aware that some regular readers who visit this blog ascribe to some degree or another to “the Final Pope” theory as written about in Thomas Horn and Chris Putnam’s book, Petrus Romanus. As I have stated before, I personally am saddened by what I feel is a tremendous lack of discernment and logic […]
Mideast Caliphate storm clouds darken
Joel Richardson WND Turkish Foreign Minister Davutoğlu calls for a new regional neo-Ottoman order For the past several years, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu, the chief architect of Prime Minister Erdoğan’s ruling Islamist Justice and Development Party, has repeatedly denied the Turkish government’s regional “neo-Ottoman” plans. In 2009, Davutoğlu determinedly repudiated all claims that he […]
The Lamb: A Passover Story
I know that many who read this blog will be celebrating Passover this year. In my experience, Passover is a time, above all, to share the story of Jesus, the true Passover Lamb with my children. Well, I have a dear friend who has just released a beautiful book that is perfect for the children […]
A New Muslim Vision: Rebuilding Solomon’s Temple Together
This article, written by Sinem Tezyapar, a student of Adnan Oktar, I think many will find quite fascinating. The unique importance of the Temple Mount to Judaism and to Islam makes the location vulnerable to tensions and conflicts between Jews and Muslims. Usually, these incidents originate in rumors such as: “The Jews are coming today […]
The Need for a Theological and Missiological Reformation
I recently had the privilege of sharing at the Hope of Israel Convocation in Kansas City along with a few good friends and brothers. I want to thank the Kansas City Prophetical School for allowing me to participate. The final message of the convocation was shared by Dalton Thomas, entitled, “The Need for a Theological […]
Half Devil / Half Child: Can you be both Christian and Muslim?

On doomsday asteroids, meteorites and such
A couple articles and posts that I thought were worth sharing regarding the recent spate of fairly significant cosmic activity: The first article, written by my friend Roland Clark was featured on Answering Islam. The other two posts were written by Alan Kurschner on his blog here and here.
Petrus Romanus: Will the next Pope be the False Prophet of Revelation 13?
Well, here we go. The announcement of the resignation of Pope Benedict was caused somewhat of an explosion with the prophecy-sphere of eschatological conspiracy-theorizing and speculation. What of St. Malachy’s prophecy? Does this mean the final pope is here? How did the authors of Petrus Romanus know that the Pope would resign? The answer to […]
“An Islamic Antichrist? Joel Richardson Predicts A Muslim Satanic Figure”
An article written by Religion News Service reporter Daniel Burke was featured this last week in multiple online news outlets. You can read the full article, at the Huffington Post. I do want to commend the reporter for writing what I felt was a very fair article.
Will Israel become wealthiest nation in the Middle East?
Joel Richardson WND For years, it was assumed that the nation of Saudi Arabia, with its vast oil reserves, would long reign as the wealthiest oil-producing nation in the Middle East. According to present estimates, Saudi Arabia sits atop approximately 266 billion barrels of oil. The Muslim dominated OPEC countries together claim roughly 1,112 billion […]
Concerning Tim Lahaye’s endorsement of Islamic Antichrist
This past fall, a reader e-mailed me inquiring about Dr. Timothy Lahaye’s endorsement of my book, Islamic Antichrist that was featured in the June 2012 issue of Charisma Magazine. I was a bit surprised to learn of this, as I had not been previously aware of his comments. I reposted his endorsement here, which caused […]
John Piper on the theological results of realized eschatology
The title of this video discussion by John Piper is “Why I Abominate the Prosperity Gospel”. But his discussion also includes a critique of an eschatology embraced by large segments of the Church today. While many will readily agree with Piper that the Gospel is not about guaranteeing that Christians become rich in this life, […]
Affirming the righteous judgments of Messiah Jesus
The following post contains a handful of Biblical passages describing the nature of the Day of the Lord and the return of Jesus, emphasizing the wrath, judgment and violence that He will use as He executes justice against the wicked. I’ve also juxtaposed some comments by neo-liberal Brian Mclaren concerning his views on the return […]
Daniel 11:40-45 Two Kings or Three?
The following post is an updated and abbreviated version of a previous post, with added diagrams at the conclusion for those who are more visually orientated. Depending on how one understands the question of two kings or three in Daniel 11:40-45, it will dramatically affect how one understands the events that precede the coming of […]

Despite severe persecution, the revival in Iran continues!
Joel Richardson WND As calls from many in the West continue at an almost rhythmic pace for military action against the nation of Iran, another rhythm, this one within that nation, continues to increase in both its speed and intensity. I am speaking of the unparalleled historical Christian revival sweeping through the ancient land of […]
The Qur’an Dilemma
As I travel and speak at various events, one of the most common requests I receive is regarding what books I recommend to give to Muslim friends or co-workers. Of course the first book I always recommend is a gift edition of the New Testament or the whole Bible. There is simply nothing more powerful […]

Muhammad Morsi in 2010: Jews are “bloodsuckers… the descendants of apes and pigs”
First of all, I don’t believe for a second that the US government had not seen this prior to throwing support behind him and his election. And yet, despite the fact that the rant below is no different than any of the most vile lectures given by Osama Bin Laden, the US government is set […]
On the rebuilding of the Jewish Temple
There is an interesting dynamic that takes place when you listen to many of the comments made by Christians who identify themselves as Zionists, or supporters of Israel and the Jewish people, when signs of a rebuilt Jewish Temple are discussed. Quite frequently, their comments are overly negative. Because there is the Scripturally-based expectation that […]
Egyptian Cleric: When the Mahdi Comes, “Not a Single Jew Will Be Left on the Face of the Earth”
The Prophet Muhammad said: “Judgment Day will come only when the Muslims fight the Jews and kill them, until the Jew hides behind the tree and the stone, and the tree and the stone say: ‘Oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah , there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him’ – except for […]
A request for our friends in the DC / Maryland area…
I’d like to take a break from the regular cycle of Islam and eschatology all the time to send out a personal and perhaps slightly awkward request. Propriety requires that I am vague. In brief, my wife and I have a very dear friend who lives in the DC / Maryland area who has been […]
Islamic Antichrist: A summary in Dutch
For those who speak Dutch or have Dutch friends with whom you would like to share a summary of the Islamic Antichrist book, a generous brother has taken the time to create the following file to share: Antichrist – de Islamitische Messias
Washington’s misplaced support for Turkey’s Erdogan
I would like to call my readers attention to a man named Luke Montgomery. Montgomery lived in the Middle East for over a decade, holds an MA in Linguistics, speaks fluent Turkish and writes on foreign policy, religion and culture. Montgomery is one of those rare commentators out there who truly “gets it” concerning the […]
The Antichrist in Muhammad
Andrew M. Greenwell The following article is the first in a series featured on the Roman Catholic site Catholic Online (www.catholic.com). I have found all of Mr. Greenwell’s articles to be trenchant, compassionate and yet filled with conviction.
