The Greatest Event in Human History
Isaiah 9:6Some years ago, the United States sent a capsule to the moon, and for the first time a man—Neil Armstrong—walked on the moon. The President at that time said, "The planting of human feet upon the moon is the greatest event in human history." I mean no disrespect, but he was totally wrong. The greatest event in human history was not planting human feet upon the moon but when God came to a manger in Bethlehem and His feet were planted upon Earth. That's the greatest event. We call that the incarnation.

The Golden Key To The Book Of Revelation
World events are so disturbing, many are asking, “Could the Second Coming of Christ be close at hand?” A few who call themselves ministers are predicting the actual year and day of “the end”—in direct violation of the statements of Christ Himself! (Matthew 24:36, 25:13; Mark 13:32) The book of Revelation is often hard to understand. And many details won’t become clear until these events begin to unfold, but God is not trying to conceal; He’s is trying to reveal.
The God Of Creation
Genesis 1:1“The key to the entire Bible hangs right by the front door: “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth” (Genesis 1:1).We will never begin to exhaust the truths in this verse as we bring our teacup minds to dip into this great ocean of truth. But you need to understand at least part of it—and you must believe all of it because it is so foundational. You will never really comprehend anything else in the Bible unless you understand what this verse reveals about the God of creation.
The Gifts Of The Wise Men & Our Gifts To Jesus

The Gifts Of The Wise Men
It's that time of year again...time for gift-buying, gift-wrapping, and gift-exchanging. What are the gifts we could bring Jesus this Christmas? One way we can discover that is to look at Matthew 2:1-12, which tells of the gifts the wise men brought Him on the night when God became flesh and dwelt among us.
The Future Is Here
An in-depth study of the book of Revelation is no simple matter. But what could be timelier in these uncertain days than a verse-by-verse review of this prophetic book? Dr. Rogers reminded us often of how grateful we should be that God gave us Revelation! But I can tell you Satan is not. He hates this book, for it dispels the fog and gives believers a hope that is steadfast and sure. We would do well to look carefully at what the Bible says about “those things that will be hereafter,” for false prophets seek to profit, charlatans concoct predictions, and “ministers” promote themselves with doomsday warnings.

The Decision To Become An Atheist
Why does someone decide to become an atheist? Perhaps they’ve been raised in a home where their parents are atheists. Perhaps they started out in life believing in God, but when they prayed about a situation and didn’t get the answer they wanted—or didn’t get it quickly enough—they said, “Well, there must not be a God after all.” Or they decided the problem of why God allows evil in the world is just too great to overcome.
The Decision is Yours: Facing the Day of Judgement
Revelation 20:11-15Those who do not decide to follow Jesus will face the final judgement. Their secrets will be exposed, a verdict will be handed down, and they will experience eternity without God.
The Conquest Of Jesus Christ
Acts 4:1-20All the great religious leaders of history have one thing in common: they are dead. Only one man has risen from a grave never again to taste death. Jesus Christ rose again! God validated His Kingship and accepted His payment for our sins with one incredible stroke: He raised Jesus from the dead!
The Christian’s Response to Religious Persecution
Matthew 5:10-13In these last days, the Church will see increasing persecution; no genuine Christian is exempt. Believers will be pursued and discriminated against by those who hate Jesus. Christians must expect persecution, endure it, and use it to return good for evil. We should also rejoice because we are counted worthy to suffer for the name of Christ Jesus.
The Beauty, the Beast, and Babylon
Revelation 17As we get closer to the Second Coming of Christ and the end of the age, no Christian can afford to be ignorant of prophecy. I believe the shadows are lengthening, the sands of time are running low, and we stand on the threshold of the Rapture of the Church and the Second Coming. I believe what’s prophesied in Revelation is imminent, and a beast—the Antichrist—is lurking in the shadows, ready to take over.
