Please Pray for Rabbi Yehuda Glick

Briefly, Glick is a student of the late Rabbi Menachem Fromen. He is a very sweet man with a passion to see Jews free to […]

Popular Muslim Personality: “Jesus is among us”

WND Leo Hohmann Could it be that a great leader will emerge in Turkey who, with the help of mysterious Islamic spirit beings, will convince the world’s Christians to become Muslim? That’s exactly what a popular Turkish intellectual is teaching his millions of television viewers, according to a new documentary produced by WND Films and […]

Update from the Balkans

Four months ago, I announced an opportunity I had to share at a gathering of pastors from an un-named region who are in great need of training and equipping concerning the challenge of Islam. Due to security issues, we chose to keep the information private until after the event. This past week I returned from […]

Is ISIS a Harbinger of the Antichrist?

Joel Richardson WND Seven years ago, Al Gore was warning us that all of the polar ice caps would be completely gone by now. I was warning of a caliphate. For the past 10 years, I’ve diligently sought to awaken the Church to the fact that the Hebrew prophets point to a Middle Eastern Antichrist […]

Ministry Trip to Erbil – Iraq

Over the past couple months, as we’ve watched the truly horrific ISIS takeover of Syria and Iraq, I’ve been repeatedly asking the Lord what good we might find in the midst of all this chaos. Increasingly, I’ve become convinced that the eyes of the Lord are presently on the Kurdish region of northern Iraq. Even […]

Ministry Trip to Erbil, Kurdistan

Over the past couple months, as we’ve watched the truly horrific ISIS takeover of Syria and Iraq, I’ve been repeatedly asking the Lord what good we might find in the midst of all this chaos. Increasingly, I’ve become convinced that the eyes of the Lord are presently on the Kurdish region of northern Iraq. Even […]

The Futurist Interpretation of Luke’s Version of the Olivet Discourse

Among commentators, there is an ongoing debate concerning Jesus’ Olivet Discourse. This end-time sermon is found in the synoptic gospels of Matthew 24-25, Mark 13, and Luke 21. While most commentators are okay seeing a fully futurist interpretation of Matthew 24-25 and Mark 13, many others have a hard time seeing Luke 21 through a […]

Gog of Magog, Islam, and Christian Missions

Joel Richardson One of the most common beliefs concerning the Battle of Gog of Magog as described in Ezekiel 38 and 39 is the notion that it is a completely unsuccessful, failed military invasion. If one were to survey 100 modern end time books and articles, one would find the same general theme repeated over […]

The cult of Erdogan

I found these references quite fascinating: As Erdogan addressed the crowd from the platform, a woman was seen fainting. Erdogan gesticulated as if saying “bring her over.” Instead of being taken away by ambulance, the allegedly sick woman was taken to Erdogan. The stretcher was elevated to the platform and Erdogan reached out to the […]

Israel, Gaza and Replacement Theology

As Israel’s operation to route out Hamas’ vast network of terror tunnels, rockets and weapons caches hidden all throughout Gaza grinds on, few are surprised by the typical line-up of leftists and Muslim groups who have used the occasion to vent their deeply biased anti-Israel views. But in this round of conflict, there is a […]

Alan Kurschner’s new book released

I know many here have been blessed by Alan Kurschner of Eschatos ministries book Antichrist: Before the Day of the Lord. The challenge in writing any book, as I well know, is determining where in the spectrum of scholarly to popular one should write. On one hand, if it is not detailed and scholarly enough, […]

Upcoming Secret Pastor’s Conference

As I announced earlier this year, this fall, I will be a key-note speaker at a secret international pastors and leaders conference in a part of the world that is in great need of encouragement and equipping specifically to rise to meet the great challenge of Islam. I want to extend a very big thank […]

NightTalker Radio Show 7/8/14

I had the opportunity to speak with Michael David McGuire recently on his NightTalker show. We spoke of ISIS, Bible prophecy, and what is going on in the Middle East. I thought it was a really good interview. Click here to listen.

The Last Shofar!

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of having coffee with Don Zoller, the co-author, along with Joseph Lenard, of The Last Shofar!, a book which seeks to address the doctrine of the pre-wrath rapture of the Church as it coincides with the Fall Feast of the Lord. I know that many of my […]

What the Caliphate means for the World

Two weeks ago, our illustrious President Obama stood in the White House and made the following statement: “[T]he truth of the matter is that for all the challenges we face, all the problems that we have, if you had to be – if you had to choose any moment to be born in human history, […]

Dictator Erdogan, Survivor of Protests, to Seek Presidency in Turkey

Last summer I had the chance to see Turkish PM Erdogan live at a massive Islamist rally of as many as a million people. After waiting out under the hot sun for hours, I was humored to see that he had the same fine taste in clothing as myself. Dictators may be nuts, but they […]

N.T. Wright’s Perversion of Biblical Hope

In a previous article, I touched on N.T. Wright’s perspective concerning the return of Jesus. To make my point, I compared Wright’s perspective concerning many of the most prominent passages that speak of the return of Jesus to the Islamic perspective concerning the return of Jesus. In the case of Islamic apocalyptic narrative, Jesus returns […]

ISIS declares new ‘Islamic caliphate’

This is huge. Fighters in Syria and Iraq have announced the establishment of a “caliphate”, referring to the system of rule that ended nearly 100 years ago with the fall of the Ottoman empire. In an audio recording distributed online on Sunday, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) declared its chief Abu […]

The Caliphate Rises

The jihadists of the Islamic State of Iraq and al Sham (ISIS) continue to consolidate their grip on Sunni Iraq. They control most major cities, they took over the border crossings with Jordan this week, and now they’re re-opening banks and government offices and establishing political control. Welcome to the new Middle East caliphate, a […]

N.T. Wright and Eschatology

NT WrightI’d like to take a take a brief pause from working on the book that I am presently working on (When a Jew Rules the World: What the Bible Really Says about Israel in the Plan of God, due out in March of 2015) to say a few brief things about a matter that […]

Why Turkey has been supporting ISIS

Long story short: Because it has been the perfect proxy against their biggest enemies, Iran, Assad and the Kurds, including the Turkish Kurd group, the PKK. For all of its veneer of being a moderate secular nation, behind it all, Erdogan is an Islamist with some long term goals. For the long version, read Daniel […]
