End Times Bible Study

03/08/2024

Join us for Spring Women’s Bible Study!

Jesus taught about it. Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Micah, Joel, Paul, James, Peter, and John, among others, were inspired by the Holy Spirit to write about it. Write about what? The prophesied last days. The end times. The Day of the Lord. Bible scholars state that at least 25% of the Bible is prophecy and half of the prophecies are still to be fulfilled. Yet often Christians don’t know what the Bible says about the end times. In fact, some Christians avoid the subject even though Jesus called John up to heaven in order to reveal what was going to happen in the last days, which he recorded in Revelation.

End Times: What You Should Know, What You Can Do is not a verse-by-verse study of Revelation nor is it a prediction of when the Lord is going to return. Only our Heavenly Father knows that. Rather, it is a Biblically based study of what the Bible tells us about the end times and how we are to live in light of them. Topics include:

  • The Reasons for End Times Prophecies
  • The Reliability of Prophecy
  • The Reality of the Rapture
  • The Revealing of End Time Events
  • The Rewards for Faithful Living
  • How to Have Assurance of Salvation

Through this study, you’ll become knowledgeable of where the end times are mentioned in the Bible, the signs of the end times, and how the Bible tells us to live in light of the end times and Christ’s return.

Accompanying videos will deepen your understanding of end time events and answer the question, “what can I do to prepare for the end times and help others prepare?”

Start the New Year Strong with 2020 Vision

01/18/2024

Friends, my monthly Faith Nugget is back! You signed up to get this monthly nugget of encouragement. I pray it blesses you. Let me know, and if it does, please share it.

“I can see better. Colors are brighter. Whites more white. I have 20/20 vision!” Can you relate to those comments? You can if you have a new eyeglass prescription or had cataract surgery. Seeing clearly is a welcomed blessing. It affects our outlook and quality of life. The same is true for spiritual vision. What is spiritual vision? How can we achieve 20/20 spiritual vision in the new year?  

Enlighten the Eyes of Your Heart

Did you know your heart has eyes, a metaphor for the eye of our mind, the faculty of knowing?  It does, and in Ephesians 1:18-19, Paul prays that the eyes of our heart be enlightened. The implication is there is more to see than we realize. More to see of “the hope of Christ’s calling; more to see of the surpassing greatness of Christ’s power.” How did Paul know? He’d been “caught up to the third heaven” where he heard things inexpressible. (2 Corinthians 12:2-4) The man once blinded by Christ’s light now clearly sees Christ’s glory and power.

The Eyes of Our Heart and Mind Communicate

In case you’re not aware, our heart functions as more than a blood pumping muscle. Dr. Caroline Leaf, a cognitive neuroscientist, along with others including the National Library of Medicine and National Institute of Health write on, “Cellular Communications in the Heart,” “cell cross talk” and “intercellular communication.” If cells communicate, affecting our physical heart condition, why would we doubt communication with God affects our spiritual heart condition? 

Verses throughout the Bible address the power of our heart to influence our thinking and therefore, lives. “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it,” Proverbs 4:23.  “As a man thinks in his heart so is he,” Proverbs 23:7. As we think in our heart?  Our heart thinks? Apparently, yes. Psalm 119:11 speaks of the power of our heart on our behavior. “I have hidden Your Words in my heart so that I would not sin against Thee.” Yes, God created our heart as a spiritual receptor that communicates with our mind and influences our emotions and behavior. Did not Christ say that rivers of living water would flow from our innermost being, referring to the Holy Spirit’s influence on us? (John 7:38)

How Are the Eyes of Our Heart Enlightened? 

People seek higher education at universities because learning is enlightening and empowering. Wise believers seek an even Higher education – the mind of Christ – so they’ll be enlightened and empowered to live for Christ. The more Bible knowledge we apply to our heart through prayer and the power of the Holy Spirit, the better our spiritual vision.

Join me! John 10 week Bible Study.   Also available online. 

Heavenly Father, thank You for enlightening the eyes of our heart as we read and apply Your truths to our hearts through prayer and the power of the Holy Spirit.

See Closed Doors Open

09/27/2022

Holding my finger to the gate opener, I edged toward the closed gate. Would it open this time, I wondered? It didn’t. Putting my car in reverse, I backed up and approached the gate a second time. Again, it failed to open. Determined, I gave it the ole “third time is the charm” approach. It worked! Have you been attempting to get through a closed door yet failing? Why not try a different approach? Psalm 145:18 tells us God is near to all who call on Him in truth. Have you called on your Heavenly Father and asked Him how to approach a closed door? Call on God. His door is always open. Then, listen to how He directs you. Act on God’s instruction. Journal God’s answers to your prayers and your praises in Prayers of My Heart, a journal designed with you in mind.

Pull Aside for Spiritual Emergencies

09/20/2022

Driving down the highway, I glanced in my rearview mirror and saw an ambulance with flashing lights speedily approaching.  Pulling over, I noticed all the other cars did the same. It’s the law to pull over for an emergency vehicle. Why is it that we set aside our time and agenda for an earthly emergency vehicle but we don’t for spiritual emergencies? People are dying and going to hell. Christ wants to move through the streets of our cities and reach the unsaved. Will you pull aside from your agenda to join Christ and reach people who are living and dying without hope? Learn how to change the course of our homes and nation by joining me for a study of Acts. Discover how Christians who are yielded to God can alter the course of families, cities, and our nation.
