The Bible describes the 144,000 as glorious witnesses who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are virgins, and they follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These men are victorious soldiers in the battle, and they inspire us to live godly lives in view of eternity. The Bible also speaks of angels who appear in the book of Revelation, proclaiming the eternal gospel to those who dwell on earth, and executing judgment on unbelievers. The eternal gospel is the same as Jesus, the same yesterday, today, and forever, and it is the good news of God's grace and the forgiveness of sin. [... more]

The eternal state of either glory or tragedy awaits us all, with Jesus Christ as our Great Redeemer or Grim Reaper. The Bible reveals what to expect at death, with two options: Jesus comes as our Redeemer, or He comes as our Grim Reaper. The consequences of rejecting Jesus' sacrifice are dire, but those who place their faith in Him are forgiven and have nothing to fear. [... more]

The Grim Reaper is a universal metaphor for death, but its true meaning is revealed in Scripture as Jesus Christ, the Sovereign Lord. The Bible teaches that death is inevitable, but for believers, it is not something to fear, as they will be present with the Lord in heaven. The concept of the Grim Reaper is rooted in ancient mythology and the occult, but it is also a symbol of God's judgment on the world. In Revelation, Jesus Christ is described as the divine reaper, who will come in judgment to harvest the earth and separate the righteous from the wicked. [... more]

True believers are marked by their active loyalty to Christ, a daily sense of failure in keeping God's commandments, and a reliance on the Savior alone for their salvation. They are not perfect, but they are genuinely converted and will persevere to the end, relying on Christ's abounding grace and forgiveness. This is a comfort to those who believe and a warning to those who may be deceived, as it reveals the true nature of faith and obedience in the Christian life. [... more]

The Bible describes genuine connection with God as perseverance in faith, obedience to God's commandments, and a daily sense of failure in keeping those commandments. A genuine believer hungers to follow God and confesses their sins daily, demonstrating a desire to keep God's commandments and a pursuit of obedience. This perseverance is not a condition for salvation, but rather an evidence of it, and it is the perseverance of the Savior that enables believers to persevere to the end. [... more]

The Bible teaches that hell is a real and eternal place of torment, where those who reject Christ will suffer the wrath of God. This is in contrast to annihilationism, which suggests that the wicked will be destroyed, and universalism, which claims that everyone will be saved. The Bible is clear that faith in Christ is the only way to avoid hell and receive eternal life. [... more]

The Bible warns that the wrath of God is personal, terrible, and painful, and that hell is a place of eternal torment where the wicked will suffer forever. This warning is not just for the wicked, but for everyone who denies the glory of a Creator God and refuses to follow Jesus Christ. The gospel message is not just about feeling comfortable, but about confronting the truth of sin and redemption, and making a personal conversion to follow Christ. [... more]

The gospel message involves both a positive and negative result of faith in Jesus Christ, gaining heaven and avoiding hell, but many evangelicals deny the literal eternal hell, redefining Scripture and prioritizing relevance over biblical truth, leading to a watered-down gospel message that neglects the wrath of God and the importance of faith in Christ alone. [... more]

The message of God's wrath is often ignored or downplayed in modern Christianity, but it's a crucial aspect of the biblical gospel. Angels have been sent to deliver messages from God, warning of the consequences of rejecting Him and the coming judgment. The wrath of God is a personal and literal reality, not just a metaphorical concept. It's essential to understand and preach the truth about God's anger and the horrors of hell to awaken people to the reality of eternal judgment. [... more]

The Book of Revelation depicts a scene where an angel proclaims the fall of Babylon, a symbol of idolatry and the world system. The angel's message is a call to fear God and give Him glory, emphasizing the importance of creationism and the gospel of the Creator God. In contrast, the world's systems, including evolution, are presented as make-believe and counterfeit, warning listeners to be concerned about following the wrong gospel message. [... more]

The gospel is a message that has been delivered by angels throughout history, but it is often distorted or corrupted, leading to different gospels being preached. The eternal gospel, as described in Revelation, is a timeless message that emphasizes the need for atonement and the glory of God, and is tied to the concept of creationism and the Creator God. [... more]

God's power and protection over those who've been preaching for Christ, even in the midst of chaos and cruelty, is a monumental moment in redemptive history. The victory of Jesus Christ is not only his, but it is for his beloved, those he marked uniquely to represent him. No one is lost, and believers have been marked by the Spirit, sealed, and will not be lost. [... more]

The power of music in the life of the church and individual believer is explored, particularly in the context of the tribulation period. The 144,000 Jewish believers who are sealed and marked by God are examined, and their ability to survive the tribulation is discussed, highlighting God's faithfulness and promise to protect them. [... more]

The Bible talks about two times Jesus comes to earth, but for two very different purposes. The first time Jesus came, he appeared in meekness as a servant. The next time he arrives, he will come in power as a judge. Dr. Robert Jeffress takes us to Revelation chapter 14 to describe what that day of judgment will look like, and how it will be a time of God's terrible swift sword, trampling out the vintage where God's wrath is stored. [... more]

Pastor Howard McNeil shares his experiences in revitalizing a declining church, emphasizing the importance of evangelism, prayer, and being gospel-centric.

Matt Slick discusses various topics including atheism, Bible study, and the end times, while addressing questions from listeners on issues such as salvation, homosexuality, and transgenderism, emphasizing the importance of standing strong in one's faith and being prepared for the challenges ahead. [... more]

The concept of justification is a critical doctrine in Christianity, with the Bible teaching that faith is credited as righteousness, not works. The Eastern Orthodox Church's avoidance of this topic is highlighted, and the idea of limited atonement is discussed in relation to God's desire for all to be saved, but not granting repentance to everyone. The importance of studying the Word of God and believing it is emphasized to avoid deception and false teachings. [... more]

The 144,000 are described as peculiar in their ministry, preserved to accomplish God's will, and special in their song. They will be preserved during the tribulation and will praise God with their own words, reinforcing the vindication of the Lamb and the encouragement of the church. [... more]
