The Coming Tribulation

An introduction to the tribulation (part 1).

My goal for this study is to inform both Christians and non-Christians of the time period the bible says we are soon approaching. For the believer in Christ, this will serve as an informational source to sharpen your understanding of scripture, but for the unbeliever, it is a warning posed by the bible for those who will be left behind after the rapture of the church. Through this study of the…

Scientist He claimed he used gene editing technology called CRISPR to alter the genes of the 2 girls to make them resistant to HIV and AIDS. His announcement was largely met with backlash from the scientific community and many around the world for…

A Prophetic Review

A look back into some of 2018's most prophetically significant events.

As of me publishing this article, we’re now several weeks into the new year. 2018 came and gone and now we reminisce on the year as a whole. If you’ve been following this blog for any length of time now, you’re familiar with the fact that I often post on prophetically significant events as they happen or are being set up in terms of the world stage, natural disasters, society, the Middle East,…

Regardless of whether you celebrate Christmas by decorating a tree and exchanging gifts, let's remember to use this opportunity as a time to celebrate the birth and eventual death and resurrection of our Lord and Savior! To the majority of the world, this may be a holiday about santa and presents, but to us who believe in Jesus' sacrifice on the cross, we can use this as an opportunity to communicate the hope that we have in Christ. Hope everyone has a great Christmas! __ "But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons." - Galatians 4:4-5 __ "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth." - John 1:14 __ "This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief. However, for this reason I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show all longsuffering, as a pattern to those who are going to believe on Him for everlasting life. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen." - 1 Timothy 1:15-17 . . . . #himitsustudy #himitsu #gospel #gospeltruth #advent #christmas #merrychristmas #jesuschrist #jesussaves #jesuscalling #biblegram #salvationthroughchrist #salvation https://www.instagram.com/p/Br0FAFfgRam/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12hofxd7ch6j5

A Great Earthquake

In July 2018, Israel had several small earthquakes that raised an alarm for a possible “big one” and brought to question the preparedness of Israel for this event. 2 articles made an estimate as to the damage and loss that may come from a large earthquake.

The Times of Israel wrote,

“Col. Itzik Bar from the IDF’s Home Front Command, put expected casualties from a major quake at 7,000 deadan…

The Rise of AI & A Race to Digital Identities

As the world advances in human-like AI technology and strives towards universal "digital identities", we seem to be headed towards a future dominated by AI and ruled by those who hold their citizen's personal data.

Artificial Intelligence and a robot master race is a plot you’d see in the latest sci-fi movie, but are we getting closer to this reality as technology gets more advanced? An artificial intelligence program known as “AlphaZero” made headlines as it recently began showing signs of “human-like” intuition and creativity.

“The computer system amazed the world last year when it mastered the game of…

The Genesis Account: Fact or Fiction?

The Genesis Account: Fact or Fiction?

“THE BIBLE tells us God created Adam and Eve as the first people to live on Earth and that all human life that followed is descended from this single pair of original ancestors. Now, research from the University of Basel in Switzerland suggests the word of the Holy Book may be based on more scientific fact than sceptics previously thought.”

Got Love? Not the Love the world gives, but a selfless love that only comes from God. __ “Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.” ‭‭I Corinthians‬ ‭13:1-3‬ . . . . #himitsu #himitsustudy #lovequotes #love #agapelove #godislove #jesussaves #lovebibleverses #encouragement #encouragingverses https://www.instagram.com/p/BrB65OEFhqB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kw9uz1dcl19z

A Rapture Study

What is the Rapture?

Most people have heard of the word “rapture” and have a general understanding that it’s a belief Christians hold, being at one point in time, all Christians will be taken off the face of the earth before the “end of the world”. To the skeptic, this is one of many “fairy tales” the bible contains, but to the Christian, it’s our “blessed hope” (Titus 2:13).

To define it…

““No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a basket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light. The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is bad, your body also is full of darkness. Therefore take heed that the light which is in you is not darkness. If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, the whole body will be full of light, as when the bright shining of a lamp gives you light.”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭11:33-36‬ . . . . #himitsustudy #himitsu #encouragingverses #encouragement #bibleverses #jesussaves #jesuscalling #jesusculture #lightoftheworld https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq0sz7tlbIO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zjnbhb4500m4

Study of Revelation #2 - Ephesus __ At first I was going to try to condense all 7 churches into 1 post but I have a lot I want to share and doing so would leave a lot of what I found meaningful in these 7 letters. Be sure to scroll through the remaining pictures and for my full thoughts on the church of Ephesus, go to the link on my bio for the full article. __ Starting from Revelation chapter 2 John starts writing the letters to the 7 churches. The first church we'll take a look at is Ephesus - the Loveless Church __ The church of Ephesus has found partial favor in the eyes of Jesus. They hate what is evil and labor for Christ (Revelation 2:2-3). However, their one great flaw is that they’ve forgotten their first love (Revelation 2:3-4). Jesus tells them to repent and to “do the first works”. I believe he’s talking about the first commandment he gave his disciples back in Matthew 22:36-38 as well as in Mark 12:28-30, in which a Pharisee asks Jesus a question about the law, “Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment”. The problem with Ephesus is that they have their minds in the right place – wanting to serve God, having a plan and putting that plan to action but they don’t have their heart there too, which according to 1 Corinthians 13:1-3 is meaningless. __ The consequence of not repenting is Jesus will come quickly and will remove their “candlestick” from its place (Revelation 2:5). Two things stick out to me from the punishment they’ll get if they don’t repent: Jesus says he’ll “come quickly” and that their candlestick will be removed. This seems like a reference to the rapture/2nd coming as well as the judgement seat of Christ. __ “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” - Revelation 3:22 . . . . #himitsustudy #himitsu #revelation #studyofrevelation #revelationofjesuschrist #jesusculture #jesussaves #biblestudy #ephesus #biblehistory https://www.instagram.com/p/BqxKSgTlKnT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zgi98zckjew
