And yet, the closest he ever came to death was the summer of 2020 while spending a quiet afternoon at the New England home he shared with his wife and two young children. Crippled by abdominal pain, Junger was rushed to the hospital by ambulance. Once there, he began slipping away. As blackness encroached, he was visited by his dead father, inviting Junger to join him.

The last words of Jesus in the Bible were not spoken as He was dying on the cross– they were spoken as He was ruling on His throne in the book of Revelation. Revelation is not a book we should be afraid to read– it is the only book in the Bible that promises a blessing to all who read it (Revelation 1:3). The last book of the Bible is the revelation or unveiling of the person of Jesus Christ– not the Anti-Christ. This short study on the book of Revelation is a journey to uncover the profound imagery and passion of Jesus Christ that we must keep fresh in our vision as we enter into ...

But many more have written to say his story resonated with them in profound ways.

The Bible predicts that in the last days a charismatic leader will establish a global following in the name of peace. The Qur’an also predicts that a man will rise up to lead the nations, pledging to usher in an era of peace. The man in the Qur’an is called the Mahdi, or Islam’s savior. However, the man in the Bible is the Antichrist. Joel Richardson’s stunning research and analysis suggest that the Mahdi and the Antichrist are actually one and the same.

Many Christians struggle to find the balance between ignoring the end times completely and seeing the antichrist in every headline. But Jesus's prophetic teaching was not meant for scholars only. Jesus preached a radical message that "the kingdom of God is at hand."

Familiarity can dull the senses, anesthetizing us to the prophetic nature and revelatory meanings found in the Book of Ruth. The story of Ruth was, is, and is yet to come if we are willing to accept it. Many of us grew up on the children’s church version of Ruth. The one that came with coloring pages and dot-to-dot pictures, which painted a broad stroke over the book, and allowed a numbness to form when we heard it read. In children's church it was simply a beautifully told, perfectly wrapped, romanticized Cinderella tale of Ruth, the servant girl, who falls in love and marries the ...

In the late 19th century, Father Charles Arminjon, a priest from the mountains of southeastern France, assembled his flock in the town cathedral to preach a series of conferences to help them turn their thoughts away from this life's mean material affairs - and toward the next life's glorious spiritual reward. His wise and uncompromising words deepened in them the spirit of recollection that all Christians must have: the abiding conviction that heavenly aims, not temporal enthusiasms, must guide everything we think, say, and do.  

Why is God restoring apostles to his church? Because restoration of the apostolic ministry is necessary for the church to complete its mission on earth. We are now experiencing the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit the world has ever known, and we should expect to see multitudes swept into the kingdom as a result.

An entire generation of victory-minded Christians, spurred by the victorious postmillennial vision of Chalcedon, has emerged to press what the Puritan fathers called "the Crown Rights of Christ the King" in all areas of modern life. Central to that is Rousas John Rushdoony's jewel of a study, God's Plan for Victory. The founder of the Christian Reconstruction movement set forth in potent, cogent terms the older Puritan vision of the irrepressible advancement of Christ's kingdom by his faithful saints employing the entire law-word of God as the program for earthly victory.
