What does Daniel's prophecy of 70 weeks have to do with the Rapture, the Tribulation, the Antichrist, and the book of Revelation?In Part 4 of this Wednesday night End Times series, Pastor George Sawyer walks through one of the Bible's most significant prophetic passages: Daniel's 70 weeks. Daniel 9 describes 70 “sevens,” or 490 years, beginning with the decree to rebuild Jerusalem and tracing a prophetic timeline that leads to Jesus Christ. After 69 weeks, or 483 years, the prophetic timeline reaches the events surrounding Christ's triumphal entry and crucifixion, followed by the present Church Age and what Scripture calls the “time of the Gentiles.”Pastor Sawyer explains why one prophetic week remains and how this final seven-year period connects to the Tribulation, also called Jacob's trouble. The message then connects Daniel's prophecy with John's vision in Revelation, exploring the structure of Revelation, the Rapture of the Church, the throne room of God in Revelation 4–5, the 24 elders, the scroll and its seals, and the judgments that will unfold as the Tribulation progresses.This message offers a biblical framework for understanding the End Times and the prophetic timeline leading toward the return of Jesus Christ.In this message:• Daniel's 70 weeks and the 490-year prophecy• The 69 weeks and their connection to Jesus• The Church Age and the pause in Daniel's prophetic timeline• The final seven-year Tribulation• The Antichrist and the covenant described in Daniel 9• Revelation's “what you have seen, what is, and what will take place”• Revelation 4 and the Rapture of the Church• Scriptures concerning the Rapture and the coming wrath• The restrainer and the revealing of the Antichrist• Why the Church is not mentioned during the Tribulation narrative• The throne room of God in Revelation 4–5• The 24 elders and their worship around God's throne• The scroll and the opening of the seals• The prayers of the saints as incense• The prophetic timeline leading into the Tribulation• The judgments leading toward Christ's return and ArmageddonAs we study these prophetic passages, the goal is not simply to understand a timeline. It is to understand what Scripture says about Jesus, His return, and the hope we have in Him.For more messages and resources from Calvary Assembly, visit calvaryassembly.org.00:00 Daniel 70 Weeks Timeline01:48 Church Age Pause02:59 Final Week Tribulation04:04 Reading Daniel 9 Prophecy08:14 Antichrist Covenant12:18 Revelation Outline Key14:11 Revelation 4 Rapture15:17 Rapture Scriptures19:30 Heavenly Bodies Hope21:39 Escaping Coming Wrath22:50 Restrainer Before Antichrist23:33 Restrainer Removed25:09 Church Missing in Tribulation26:15 Why Judgment Matters28:38 Throne Room Vision32:19 Who Are 24 Elders?34:26 Scroll and Seals37:48 Prayers as Incense41:56 Timeline Chart Breakdown45:08 Next Week: Opening Seals45:53 Tribulation's Dark End

Send us Fan MailThis week we look at an overview of the prophecies of the churches in Asia or modern day Turkey. We look at what they represent and do a deep dive into the Church at Ephesus.

Where are we on God's end-time calendar? And if Jesus really is coming again, how should we live right now?In Part 2 of The Lord Himself Will Come, Pastor George Sawyer continues teaching through Bible prophecy and the return of Jesus Christ, reminding the Church that we are living in a significant season of God's redemptive plan. The goal is not to set dates or stir fear, but to understand what Scripture says and allow the promise of Christ's return to change the way we live today.Beginning in Acts 2 and Joel, Pastor Sawyer explains the biblical connection between Pentecost and the “last days.” When the Holy Spirit was poured out at Pentecost, Peter declared that what was happening fulfilled Joel's prophecy concerning the last days. God's Spirit was being poured out on sons and daughters, men and women, and across generations. The Church age began with an outpouring of the Holy Spirit, and Scripture points us toward the return of Christ.The message then turns to Daniel 9 and the prophecy of the 70 weeks, or 70 sevens. Pastor Sawyer walks through the decree to rebuild Jerusalem under Artaxerxes and the prophetic timeline leading to the Messiah, including the fulfillment surrounding Jesus' triumphal entry and crucifixion. After the 69th week, the prophetic timeline enters a period often described as the Church Age or the time of the Gentiles.According to the end-times framework taught in this message, the next major event is the Rapture of the Church described in 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17. The Rapture is followed by the final seven-year Tribulation period, bringing the prophetic timeline toward its climax and the eventual return of Jesus Christ.But the emphasis is not simply on understanding prophecy, it is on being ready.Jesus told His followers to watch and pray. Scripture warns that the enemy seeks to wear out the saints and pull believers away from faithfulness. We cannot afford to become spiritually exhausted, distracted, or complacent. We are called to remain strong, keep our eyes on Jesus, walk in the power of the Holy Spirit, and live with the expectation that our King is coming.The question is not just, “Where are we on the calendar?” The question is, “Are we ready?”The Bride must stay ready.The Church must stay awake.The believer must stay faithful.Jesus is coming.

God's plan for the End Times is not random, and the book of Daniel gives us a remarkable look at how God has been directing history toward His eternal purpose.In Part 3 of Pastor George Sawyer's End Times series at Calvary Assembly, we journey through Daniel 1, 2, 5, 9, and 10 to understand the prophetic timeline surrounding Israel, the nations, the coming Tribulation, and the return of Jesus Christ. Before Daniel was given insight into dreams and visions, he first had to make a decision to remain faithful to God in Babylon.Daniel refused to compromise his identity or convictions, and God rewarded that faithfulness with wisdom, understanding, and supernatural revelation. Pastor Sawyer then walks through Nebuchadnezzar's statue dream in Daniel 2, explaining the successive kingdoms represented by the statue: Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome, and the final divided kingdom represented by iron and clay. The dream ultimately points beyond earthly kingdoms to a stone not cut by human hands, representing the eternal kingdom of Christ that will overcome every human empire.The teaching then turns to one of the most significant passages in Bible prophecy: Daniel's prophecy of the 70 weeks, or 70 sevens. Pastor Sawyer explains the 490-year prophetic period concerning Israel, beginning with the decree to rebuild Jerusalem and pointing toward the coming Messiah. Daniel prophesies that the Messiah would be “cut off,” followed by the destruction of Jerusalem, before a prophetic gap leading into the present Church Age.The final prophetic week remains ahead. This seven-year period includes the rise of the Antichrist, a covenant with Israel, the breaking of that covenant, the abomination of desolation, escalating judgment, and ultimately the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Pastor Sawyer also connects Daniel's final kingdom imagery with the revived Roman Empire and the ten toes of Nebuchadnezzar's dream.As we study Daniel, we are reminded that history is not outside God's control. Kingdoms rise and fall. Nations change. Empires disappear. But God's Word remains, His purposes stand, and His kingdom will have no end.The question for us is the same one Daniel answered with his life: Will we remain faithful to God when the world around us pressures us to compromise?

Christine Darg explores the profound paradigm shift occurring in our time, according to biblical prophecy, and the significance of the Levitical festivals and their prophetic fulfillment, the role of the Church age, and the anticipated restoration of the kingdom to Israel.

The sermon establishes a theological foundation for studying biblical prophecy by asserting that God alone is deity, proven by His ability to declare the end from the beginning. It distinguishes between the prophetic program for Israel and the current mystery of the Church Age, emphasizing that believers must not conflate these two distinct groups. The speaker argues that trust in Scripture outweighs personal experience or emotion because God's word has historically remained faithful to its predictions. By examining Isaiah 46, the text highlights that false gods cannot foretell future events, whereas the true God orchestrates history according to His counsel. Ultimately, the central focus of all prophecy is identified as Jesus Christ, who is announced, rejected, returning, and reigning.

The Dance of the Trinity Speaker: Dr. Bryan Cutshall Today's message focused on the profound concept of the Trinity, not as a confusing theological puzzle, but as a "round dance" of divine love, unity, and joy—known in early church history as perichoresis. God created humanity to invite us into this ultimate fellowship, which ultimately expands into a great movement of evangelism and a future global revival. Key Takeaways: The Dance of the Trinity (Perichoresis): The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit exist in such absolute harmony and synchronized love that they appear as one entity—much like three distinct colors spinning on a top or the Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) wavelengths that combine to create pure white light. The Divine Signature of Threes: God stamped creation and His redemptive history with patterns of threes (body/soul/spirit, three levels of Noah's ark, three witnesses in heaven and earth, and the three-room structure of the Tabernacle) as a divine watermark. The Three Great Moves of God: Just as the Tabernacle featured the Outer Court (Old Testament/Law), the Inner Court (New Testament/Church Age), and the Holy of Holies (The final outpouring of God's glory), history is tracking toward a final, unprecedented third great awakening before the return of Christ. A Harvest Generation: This final move of God will not rely on human celebrities, tech, or programs, but on a sudden, sovereign invasion of God's glory that will sweep through campuses, streets, and even unexpected regions globally (such as the massive movement among youth and Muslim-majority nations like Indonesia). Highlights & Illustrations The Subatomic Signature: Citing scientific discovery regarding "quarks" at the subatomic level, Dr. Cutshall noted how matter is held together by three strands of light wrapped in a sound wave—echoing God's spoken command, "Let there be light". Live Illustration: Dr. Cutshall brought volunteers onto the platform to physically demonstrate the "round dance" of evangelism—showing how the Trinity opened the circle to include Adam and Eve, and how the church's mission is simply to pull others into the dance of God's abundant life. The Two-Thousand-Year Countdown: Highlighting the timeline of Pentecost and the Church Age, the message pointed to the imminent horizon of 2027 and the surrounding years as a profound marker for the end of the end-times, urging believers to pray bigger and expect a miraculous final harvest. Scripture References Used Genesis 1:3 — "Then God said, 'Let there be light'; and there was light." Genesis 8 — The account of Noah releasing the dove three times with the olive branch. Ezekiel 1 — The vision of the sapphire (blue) throne representing the Holy Spirit. Joel 2:28 — "And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh..." Psalm 24:7 — "Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in." 1 John 5:7 — "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one." 1 John 5:8 — "And there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one." Revelation (References to the Throne Room) — Mention of the Sardis (red) throne of the Father and the emerald (green) throne of Jesus. "Thanks for listening!

The Great White Throne Judgment is the last courtroom, the final reckoning and the ultimate point of no return for the unsaved dead. Everyone standing there has already rejected God's salvation, and no one will leave that throne justified. The books will be opened, every hidden work exposed and every excuse stripped away as sinners are judged according to their works. Death and hell will surrender their prisoners, proving that hell is not the final destination but the temporary holding place of the lost until judgment. After sentencing, they will be cast into the lake of fire, which the Bible calls the second death. There will be no advocate, no appeal, no repentance and no second chance—only the righteous judgment of a HOLY God. This will be the point of no return.“And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.” Revelation 20:11 (KJB)This terrifying reality is why we preach the gospel of the grace of God with urgency. During this present Church Age, salvation is freely offered to every sinner who will place his faith in the shed blood, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We are not attempting merely to improve society, reform human behavior or make people more religious; we are warning souls to flee from the wrath to come. Every gospel tract, street sermon, missionary journey and personal witness is an opportunity to reach someone before death closes the door forever. The Great White Throne reminds the saved that evangelism is not optional religious activity—it is an urgent rescue mission. The time to believe is now, because there will be no gospel invitation given when the books are opened.

In this message, Pastor Brandon Holthaus concludes Jesus' Mystery Kingdom parables by examining the Hidden Treasure, the Pearl of Great Price, the Dragnet, and the Householder. Discover how these final parables reveal God's ongoing plan for Israel, His calling out of believing Gentiles during the Church Age, the coming Judgment of the Nations, and the establishment of Christ's Messianic Kingdom. This study explains why the Hidden Treasure represents Israel's believing remnant, why the Pearl of Great Price pictures Gentile believers, how the Net points to the future separation of the righteous from the wicked at Christ's return, and how the Householder summarizes God's entire Kingdom program. You'll also see how these parables fit together with Romans 11, Acts 15, Micah 5, Daniel 7, Revelation 17, and Matthew 25 to reveal the prophetic roadmap leading to the Second Coming.

In this episode of Faith & Family Bible Study, Steve Wood reveals three simple steps for understanding the overall scope of biblical prophecy by connecting Matthew 12:28–29 with Revelation 20. Drawing on the wisdom of St. Augustine, Steve explains how Christ's binding of Satan during the Church Age makes sense of Revelation's difficult imagery, the success of the Great Commission, and the prophetic significance of the "little season" before Christ's Second Coming.

Scripture is clear: the gifts of the Holy Spirit continue throughout the Church Age until Jesus returns. But the Bible also strongly rebukes those who flaunt self-proclaimed titles like “Apostle,” “Prophet,” or “Archbishop.” In this video, Christine Darg examines the growing problem of grandiose, self-bestowed titles in the church—and how they often lead to control, financial exploitation, adulation and deception. Drawing from Matthew 23, Revelation 2:2, 2 Corinthians 11, and other key passages, she shows why Jesus warned against seeking honorifics and why we must test those who call themselves apostles. You'll also hear why humility is the true mark of Spirit-empowered ministry, why the foundational apostles and prophets cannot be supplemented, and how ordinary believers can still walk in genuine gifts and high ministry offices without self-promotion. Then the teaching turns to a major end-time sign: the explosive rise of anti-Zionism and antisemitism. With Israel restored as the prophetic “fig tree,” Satan is stirring global hatred against God's people—exactly as Scripture foretold. Learn why the Church must stand as true watchmen, pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and intercede for the salvation of all Israel (Romans 11:26).Most importantly, this video ends with a clear gospel invitation.

Why didn't Jesus establish the Messianic Kingdom during His first coming? Why did He suddenly begin teaching in parables? And what do the four soils reveal about the condition of our hearts, spiritual maturity, rewards, and the Church Age? In this in-depth study of Matthew 13:1–23, Pastor Brandon Holthaus explains why Israel's rejection of the Messiah marked a major turning point in God's Kingdom Program. Discover how the Mystery Kingdom unfolds between Christ's first and second comings and why the Parable of the Sower is the foundational key to understanding all of Jesus' Kingdom parables. In this message you'll learn: • Why Jesus changed His teaching from plain speech to parables • The four different heart conditions represented by the soils • Why the first soil never germinates while the other three do • The difference between shallow, worldly, and fruitful believers • How Satan attempts to snatch away God's Word • The role of persecution, worldliness, and spiritual maturity • Why receptivity—not intelligence—is the issue • What Jesus meant by "understanding" • The significance of the 30-, 60-, and 100-fold harvest • How the Mystery Kingdom relates to the Seven Churches of Revelation • Why life often doesn't go according to our plans—and how God is still accomplishing His Kingdom purposes The Parable of the Sower reminds us that the power of God's Word never fails. The determining factor is not the quality of the seed, but the condition of the soil.

What happens to the physical body after death? In this powerful message from CityRise Church, Dr. Roger Patterson unpacks 1 Corinthians 15—the greatest text on the resurrection in the New Testament. While many cultures throughout history have tried to secure their own immortality (like China's famous Terracotta Clay Army), Dr. Patterson reminds us that the empty grave of Jesus Christ is the true beginning of the rest of our story. Diving deep into biblical eschatology, this sermon outlines a clear end-times timeline—from the Church Age to the Return of Christ, the Rapture, the Tribulation, and the Millennial Kingdom. Discover the 5 core theological truths that prove Christ's resurrection guarantees your own future, and learn what your future, glorified eternal body will actually be like. If you are looking for hope in the face of grief, sickness, or uncertainty, this message will anchor your faith and remind you that your labor for the Lord is never in vain.

The Bible never presents the Christian life as a casual walk through friendly territory; it presents it as a fight, a race, a warfare and a watch. The tragedy is that many men begin with fire in their bones, a Bible in their hand, and a burden in their heart, only to quit somewhere along the way when the wounds, disappointments, temptations and weariness begin to pile up. Some are taken out by sin, some by bitterness, some by pride, some by the love of this present world, and some simply grow tired of standing alone. But Paul's testimony at the end of his life was not that he had enjoyed an easy road, but that he had stayed in the battle: “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:” That is the cry of the faithful soldier, it is yours today, Christian?"Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier." 2 Timothy 2:3,4 (KJB) The question “Who will be the last man standing?” is a searching question for every saved believer here in the closing hours of the Church Age. Will you still be faithful when others walk away? Will you still preach the Book when compromise is easier? Will you still get back up when you fall? Will you still be watching, working and waiting when the Lord Jesus Christ comes for His church? The last man standing will not be the strongest man, the loudest man, or the most gifted man; he will be the faithful man, held up by the Lord, anchored in the Book, washed in the blood, and looking for that blessed hope. The Bible says, “Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.” In a day when so many are quitting by inches, cooling off by degrees, and trading conviction for comfort, may God help us to stay in the fight, rise when we fall, and be found standing at our post when the trumpet sounds!! On this Sunday Service, we ask who will be the last man standing? TO THE FIGHT!!!

The message to the church at Thyatira, the smallest church of the ones of Revelation 2 and 3, is the longest letter from the Lord Jesus Christ to any of the seven letters of Revelation 2 and 3. It appears that the Lord viewed this church and its compromise with world paganism in Thyatira, as among, if not, one of the gravest dangers being experienced by the churches of John's day and OUR DAY. In this letter the Lord teaches them how to resist compromise with the world around them and how to counter its influences in their church, as well as in our churches. The solution is to "hold fast" using the discernment between good and evil, that they had learned. This video suggests how to learn discernment, for it is not inherent in Christians, and the need to exercise discernment in their lives according to Hebrews 5:14. The Lord's message is extremely important to we who are living near the end of the Church Age. 0:00 The City of Thyatira 7:38 The Church at Thyatira 10:42 What They did Right! 12:06 The Lord's Rebuke for What They did Wrong! 22:06 The Lord's servants at Thyatira 24:49 The Bride of Christ's Future 35:34 What Must We Do!

In session 4 of 6, “Church Age Bookends: Pentecost to Portents,” Dr. Alan Kurschner delivered this talk at the conference, The Celestial Disturbances. Dr. Kurschner examines Peter's use of Joel's prophecy in Acts 2 and explains why it matters for understanding the church age, the celestial disturbances, the Day of the Lord, and the timing of the rapture. Building on the biblical pattern from Joel, Matthew 24, Luke 21, and Acts 2, this teaching argues that the cosmic signs of the sun, moon, and heavens are not random prophetic details—they function as a major time indicator in end-time prophecy. The post Church Age Bookends – Pentecost to Portents appeared first on Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner.

The phrase “Christ is King” is absolutely true when understood in its proper biblical setting. Jesus Christ is Israel's Messiah, David's greater Son, the rightful heir to the throne, and the One who will return at the Second Advent to rule this world with a rod of iron. The kingdoms of this world will become His, Jerusalem will be the city of the great King, and the nations will one day bow before Him whether they want to or not. But for those of us who are born again, we have been put into the body of Christ who is our Saviour, Redeemer and Friend. We will stand with Him on ‘that day' when He becomes KING OF KINGS and inherits the kingdom prepared for Him from the foundation of the world.“And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.” Colossians 1:18 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the modern “Christ Is King” movement, when connected to Christian Nationalism, is not merely a group of people saying something biblically true. It is often operating from a badly mixed doctrinal framework that blends kingdom-now theology, political dominion, Roman Catholic social order, Protestant reconstructionism, and nationalist identity politics into one confused religious-political package. Rightly divided, the problem is simple. They are trying to take language that belongs to Israel's prophetic kingdom program and force it into the Church Age, then use it to sanctify earthly political power. Jesus Christ is King. No Bible believer disputes that. He is the promised King of Israel, the Son of David, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, and the One who will return to this earth to sit upon the throne of His father David. But that kingdom is not being established now through America, Rome, Washington, political movements, conservative activism, or religious nationalism. Where the ‘Christ Is King' movement goes wrong is that it often takes a true prophetic title of Christ and turns it into a present-tense political weapon. It becomes less about the gospel of the grace of God and more about asserting religious identity, reclaiming national power, confronting perceived enemies, and building a “Christian civilization.” That is not Paul's doctrine for the Body of Christ. Paul does not present Jesus Christ to the Church primarily as our political King. He presents Him as our Saviour, our Head, our Redeemer, our Life, and our Blessed Hope. Today we show you the heresy of the corrupt Christian Nationalism and Dominion Theology movements that wants an earthly kingdom now, without an heavenly King to physically rule over it. They see themselves as the king, and that's a problem.

How would you describe biblical love in the Church Age? Listen to this message on the love chapter of 1 Corinthians 13 to see that nothing else you do to exercise your spiritual gift is worthwhile unless it is done in love. See that love is a mental attitude, not an emotion and that hypothetical language is used in the first three verses. Find out that we cannot produce this love on our own, but only when we are walking by means of the Holy Spirit is it developed in our lives. Be challenged to take the focus off of yourself and consider those around you.

Revelation 15 is one of the clearest places in the Bible where the Holy Spirit deliberately connects Israel's first great national deliverance with her final deliverance in the time of Jacob's trouble. In Exodus 15, Moses and the children of Israel sang after the LORD overthrew Pharaoh and his armies in the Red sea; in Revelation 15, those who got the victory over the Beast, his image, his mark, and the number of his name sing “the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb.” That is not Church Age language, and it is not vague devotional poetry. It is Jewish, prophetic, dispensational truth.“And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.” Revelation 15:3 (KJB)On this episode of Rightly Dividing, Pharaoh was a type of Antichrist, Egypt was a type of the world system, and the Red sea deliverance was a picture of God bringing His people through judgment while destroying the enemy that sought to enslave them. What began with Moses in Exodus will be brought to its full prophetic conclusion under Jesus Christ, the Lamb, in Revelation. The victory in Revelation 15 is not measured by earthly survival, but by faithfulness to God in the face of the Beast's global worship system. These Tribulation saints refuse the mark, refuse the image, refuse the Beast's name and number, and though many of them are killed, heaven records them as victorious. That is Bible victory. The world says victory is keeping your place in the system, protecting your buying and selling, and bowing just enough to survive. God says victory is refusing the Antichrist and standing true to the Lamb. Just as Israel stood on the other side of the Red sea and sang after Pharaoh's defeat, these overcomers stand on the sea of glass mingled with fire and sing before the final vials of wrath are poured out. The same LORD who judged Egypt will judge the kingdom of the Beast, and the same God who gave Moses a song of deliverance will give Israel's final remnant a song of triumph before the coming Kingdom.

Explore the connection between Joel's Prophecy (Joel 2) and the events of Pentecost as described in Acts 2. This enlightening video delves into the significance of the Holy Spirit's outpouring, the resurrection of Christ and the Signs in the Heavens on the day of His death, and the role of the Church in the harvest of souls among the nations. Understand how Pentecost is fulfilled by the Church Age and how Peter's sermon at Pentecost serves as a foundational message for the Church Age, emphasizing the empowerment of all believers by the Holy Spirit, to share the Gospel so that all who call upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved.. Peter declared the fulfilment of Joel 2:28-32, which prophesied the outpouring of the Spirit UPON all (believing) flesh (Acts 2:12-18), in conjunction with signs: “I will (1) show WONDERS in HEAVEN above, and (2) SIGNS in the EARTH beneath: blood, fire and vapour of smoke. (1) The SUN shall be turned to DARKNESS, and the MOON to BLOOD, BEFORE the Coming of the Great and Awesome Day of the Lord (the central event)” (Acts 2:19-20). Joel 2:28: “It shall come to pass AFTERWARD (after the central event, v31), that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh.” Finally, he quoted the last line of Joel's Prophecy in Acts 2:21: “whoever calls on the Name of the Lord shall be saved.” Joel's Prophecy predicted a sequence of events: (1) SIGNS in HEAVEN and EARTH, just BEFORE (2) the Great and Awesome Day of the Lord, AFTER which (3) the Spirit will poured out UPON all flesh. The purpose of the outpouring of the Spirit UPON all believers is to empower them to prophesy (speak under the inspiration of the Spirit), which we do when we witness to Jesus, for as we speak, we trust the Spirit upon us to anoint our words, speak through us and glorify Him (Rev 19:10). The aim of our Spirit-filled witness is that people will call on His Name and be saved (Acts 2:21). Peter claimed what happened was the fulfilment of the whole of Joel's Prophecy (Acts 2:16), which he quoted in full (2:28-32), not just the bit about the outpouring of His Spirit. He declared the 3-fold sequence of events prophesied by Joel was now fulfilled: (1) The SIGNS on EARTH and in HEAVEN happened on the Day of the Cross, 2 days BEFORE (2) Christ's RESURRECTION (the Great and Awesome or Manifest Day of the Lord), the main focus of Peter's sermon. Then 50 days AFTERWARD (3) the Spirit was POURED OUT on all flesh. Thus, the promised Spirit was now made freely available to all, so if we put our faith in Christ, we too can receive the Gift of His Spirit (Acts 2:32-33, 38-39). Both SIGNS in the HEAVENS were fulfilled on the Day of the Cross: (1) the DARK SUN at noon, proclaiming Jesus as our sin offering (Luke 23:44-45), for the radiant SUN of righteousness (Mal 4:2), bore the darkness of sin on Himself, pictured by the midday sun made black, as predicted in Amos 8:9. Ancient historians recorded this strange supernatural darkness, dating it to AD 33. (2) The BLOOD MOON (Acts 2:20) = a lunar eclipse. On Passover of AD 33 (Friday, April 1st), in Jerusalem as the full moon rose above the horizon, it was a Blood Moon. So, Joel 2:30-31 was fulfilled on the Day of the Cross. Whereas the SUN = CHRIST, the SOURCE of LIGHT, the MOON = His PEOPLE, who, like the moon, shine by reflecting the SUN's light. God proclaimed in the heavens that His People were now covered by the BLOOD! Acts 2:20 also speaks of SIGNS on EARTH: (1) ‘BLOOD' = the BLOOD of CHRIST, corresponding to the BLOOD MOON. (2) ‘FIRE and VAPOUR of SMOKE', because of the great earthquake and resulting FIRES from all the oil lamps in the dark.

This podcast explores the idea of the “Church Age” and whether the Bible suggests it spans roughly 2,000 years. It examines a prophetic pattern drawn from the seven days of Creation in Genesis, where each day represents 1,000 years of human history. Using this model, the episode outlines how the first 4,000 years point to life before Christ, followed by two “days,” or 2,000 years, representing the Church Age after His death and resurrection, and culminating in the 1,000-year millennial reign. The episode also weaves in multiple scriptural patterns from both the Old and New Testaments that reflect a “two days and third day” theme, symbolizing preparation and eventual restoration. While avoiding setting a definite date, it suggests that the timeline may be nearing its fulfillment and calls believers to live with urgency, remain faithful, and actively share the message of salvation as they anticipate Christ's return.

By Jorge de Campos - The impressive significance of God's festivals linked to Christ's first coming. The Feast of Harvest (Exodus 23:16)—known in the New Testament as the Day of Pentecost—holds important significance for this "Church Age."

There is a reason why lost men mock Bible prophecy, and there is a reason why lukewarm Christians avoid preaching on the Day of the Lord. It is because the Day of the Lord strips away every refuge of lies, every fake peace plan, every apostate sermon, and every smooth-talking promise that man is going to fix this world and bring in some shining golden age. He is not. This world is not evolving upward, it is collapsing downward, and the Day of the Lord is God's appointed answer to the rebellion of men and nations.“Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.” Isaiah 13:6On this episode of Rightly Dividing, for nearly 2,000 years in the Church Age, God has been extending mercy through the preaching of the gospel of the grace of God. He has been saving sinners by the blood of Jesus Christ, building the Body of Christ, and making a way of escape for anyone willing to come to Calvary. But mercy rejected does not mean judgment canceled. It means judgment delayed. And one day that delay ends. The Day of the Lord is that day. It is the day when the proud are brought low, when the nations are shaken, when the false christ, the false prophet, and the whole satanic system that has seduced the world are dragged into the blazing light of divine justice. Men today swagger across television screens and political stages as if they own tomorrow. They do not own the next breath in their lungs. The Day of the Lord is coming, and when it comes, every king, every banker, every general, every media propagandist, every Christ-rejecting celebrity, and every religious fraud will discover that God was not bluffing. Last week, we gave you the rundown on the Day of Christ and the Pretrib Rapture, tonight we give you everything you need to know about the Day of the Lord and the time of Jacob's trouble.

The Bible doctrine of the Pretribulation Rapture of the body of Christ is an oft-ignored and much maligned subject here at the end of the falling awayThe blessed hope of every born again Bible believer living in the Church Age dispensation is the Pretribulation Rapture, or catching away, of the body of Christ. Paul says that we are to speak about it, teach it, preach it and to comfort one another with the words in the Bible showing us the rapture. But in our day, because we live in the time Paul calls the 'falling away', the doctrine of the Pretribulation Rapture is not only not taught and not preached from the pulpit, it is maligned by lukewarm Laodiceans who cannot or will not 'rightly divide' the scripture. Today my message is 'Sunday Morning Rapture', everything you should know but don't because no one taught it to you about the soon-coming catching away of the body of Christ into the clouds. "Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words." 1 Thessalonians 4:17,18 (KJB)

The nations of the world can gather their leaders, sign their agreements, proclaim billions in humanitarian aid, and even form grand bodies like Donald Trump's so-called Board of Peace — but until Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, returns to rule and reign from Jerusalem, every one of these human schemes will fall short and collapse. All of them, no exceptions.“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6 (KJB)On this episode of Rightly Dividing, the Bible shows that the Middle East — especially Jerusalem — will continue to be a source of global turmoil until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. Jesus said that Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles until that day. God's Word also prophesies that every human proposal for peace will fail because sin remains unsolved. Man can't alter God's timetable. Every agreement built on human wisdom without submission to Christ is temporary, unstable, and ultimately shattered. Tonight we take a deep dive into what your King James Bible has to say about peace in the last days of the Church Age before the Rapture. It will help you to put into perspective the current war with Iran and the Board of Peace in Gaza and how they match up with what the prophets says about peace in the last days. Tonight we turn off our news feeds and open the scripture of truth!

Why is the era of the Church seen as a pause in God's prophetic plan? Find out with Tim Moore and Nathan Jones on Christ in Prophecy Radio!

We are currently watching the incredible events unfolding in the Middle East, and they all point to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. But the larger and often overlooked picture is the instruction to wait upon the timing of the Lord, something not really talked about here in the closing moments of the Church Age.
