Paul says the last days will be full of deceivers and difficulties. But why should that be so? John Piper offers six possible reasons.
Pastor James Kaddis is in a study of the end times called, “Living in the Last Days,” based in First and Second Thessalonians. Jesus is coming again, and God will judge this earth! But if you're a believer in Christ you have nothing to fear, because you're not appointed to wrath! That wonderful truth is front and center today as we look at First Thessalonians chapter five, and verses 8-28. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1459/29

Noah, Lot, and the Last Days
When Jesus came as God's Messiah, he ushered in a new age — but not in the way so many expected. John Piper examines our place in the last days.

There's nothing else quite like a night at the ballpark, especially when the light and temperature hit just right. The air is soft, the crowd is genial. You've got a hot dog in one hand and an icy-cold drink in the other. Your only job? Sit there, take in the action, and occasionally join in a cheer or shout at the ump. Since the 1860s, baseball has been called ‘America's pastime.' During times of strife — the Civil War, the Great Depression, the World Wars — baseball provided escapism and a sense of normalcy. It's always been seen as a reflection of American attitudes and values: The game requires cooperation and self-sacrifice — and like America, baseball LOVES a maverick. Baseball is also democratic: Just about anybody can play just about anywhere if they've got an open space, a bat, and a ball. As a spectator, even if you don't know all the rules, you can still recognize the elation of a stolen base or a home run. In this episode, we take a virtual tour of some of the remarkable ballparks around the US, meet the most eccentric man in baseball, delight in players' excellent nicknames, and wax poetic about popcorn. Then we recommend great books that took us inside the stadium on the page, including a sweetly funny epistolary novel that sneaks up on you, a love letter to the unsung catcher, a 1920s mystery starring the Cincinnati Reds, a closer look at pitching, and a literary mashup of campus novel, baseball story, and rom-com. Last Days of Summer: A Novel by Steve Kluger The Cincinnati Red Stalkings by Troy Soos The Art of Fielding: A Novel by Chad Harbach K: A History of Baseball in Ten Pitches by Tyler Kepner The Tao of the Backup Catcher: Playing Baseball for the Love of the Game by Tim Brown For more on the books we recommend, plus the other cool stuff we talk about, visit show notes.

Inspiring People & Places: Architecture, Engineering, And Construction
In the infrastructure world, uncertainty is a growth killer. When projects stall, the entire industry feels the pain. Today, we're diving into this issue with a special guest, Jill Jamieson. Jill, the CEO of Illuminati Infrastructure and an amateur endurance athlete, knows a thing or two about pushing through challenges. Join their conversation as they first dive into what inspired Jill's recent 30-mile swim around Manhattan and her advice on taking those first steps to conquer physical feats. They pivot and then delve into her thoughts on how the One Big Beautiful Bill is influencing what's happening in the infrastructure world, the differences between funding and financing, how bringing in the private sector is impacting the affordability of infrastructure projects, and her insights on the greatest priority across the United States from an infrastructure perspective. Tune in to hear her advice to the engineering community on adopting technological innovation, thoughts on other infrastructure challenges, her current reading list, and more! Key Points From This Episode:• Digging into our societal comfort crisis: what inspired her 30-mile swim.• How the One Big Beautiful Bill headline is influencing what's happening in the world of infrastructure.• Where it gets really messy: two ways to pay for infrastructure projects.• Bringing in the private sector: how the affordability of infrastructure projects is responding.• Three ways to extract value from existing assets.• The nation's top infrastructure priority: getting projects done in a more timely or cost-effective manner. Quotes:“You find growth when you are outside of your comfort zone. I always say, ‘If I don't stretch myself, I never know how far I can reach.'” — Jill Jamieson “The one lesson I have learned as I get older is to let go of fear of failure. Give it a shot! What do you have to lose?” — Jill Jamieson “Everybody wants cutting edge, they don't want bleeding edge.” — Jill Jamieson Links Mentioned in Today's Episode: Jill Jamieson on LinkedInJill Jamieson on InstagramThe Comfort Crisis: Embrace Discomfort to Reclaim Your Wild, Happy, Healthy SelfHow to Change Your Mind: What the New Science of Psychedelics Teaches Us About Consciousness, Dying, Addiction, Depression, and TranscendenceThe One Big Beautiful BillJesse Welles - Horses (YouTube)Franz Ferdinand - Audacious (YouTube)Finite and Infinite GamesChasing the Scream: The First and Last Days of the War on Drugs Leadership Blueprints PodcastMCFAMCFA CareersBJ Kraemer on LinkedIn

Every day it becomes more and more obvious that we are living in the last days. The evidence is everywhere, and the effects of it are felt with every moment we live on this earth. One thing is certain: as the day of Christ's return draws closer, the enemy is working harder than ever to destroy us. Today, we'll talk about how God equips us to resist Satan's attacks and how to stand firm in these dark and dangerous times.

Endure Sound Doctrine: Walking Upstream in the Last Days | KIB 496 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description In Kingdom Intelligence Briefing #496, Dr. Michael & Mary Lou Lake call the remnant to endure sound doctrine (2 Timothy 4) and reject the avalanche of error sweeping the modern church. From hermeneutics (exegesis vs. eisegesis) to functional kingdom theology, they unpack how to live the ultimate counterculture—holy, steadfast, and free from Babylon's influence. Includes intercession, ministry updates, biblical correction done in love, and a closing prayer commissioning the remnant to walk the King's Highway. Key Scriptures: 2 Timothy 4:1–5; themes of holiness, sanctification, endurance, and returning to the full counsel of God (Genesis → Revelation). Prayer Focus & Updates: Intercede against occult activity, protection of children, healing for Justin & spouse, Troy's surgery, and continued recovery after cataract surgery. Note the overlap of Fall Equinox (Sept 22) with Feast of Trumpets—pray that the authority of Jesus neutralizes darkness. ⏱️ Chapters / Timeline 00:00 – Opening & Mission of KIB: equipping the end-times remnant 02:05 – Intercession & Prayer Requests (healing, protection of children) 05:05 – Ministry/Health Update: cataract surgery & reading challenges 07:40 – Why the Reformation “never ends”: confronting today's drift 10:15 – Exegesis vs. Eisegesis: letting Scripture speak for itself 13:20 – 2 Timothy 4: Preach, reprove, rebuke, exhort—in that order 17:10 – Counterfeit “revelation” vs. sound doctrine & holy living 21:35 – Walking upstream: being salt & light in a paganized culture 25:10 – Money, “little gods,” and character: what Jesus really forms in us 29:00 – Doctrine = how you live: Monday-through-Saturday discipleship 33:05 – Entertainment, “itching ears,” and the trap of fables 37:20 – Wolves, drift, and the need for apostolic correction 41:00 – Pagan syncretism through history; why “identify with the world” fails 45:30 – Holiness: the “absolute other” and the true counterculture 49:10 – Wounds in the body & in leaders; healing in clean waters 52:30 – Rhythms of the Kingdom: feasts, Sabbath, sanctification cycles 56:00 – Functional Kingdom Theology: practical, faithful obedience 59:20 – One Bible, Whole Counsel: OT foundations & NT fulfillment 1:03:10 – Leaving Babylon step-by-step; being led by the Holy Spirit 1:06:00 – Closing prayer: set our feet on the Pathway of Truth About KIB equips believers with intel for the last days—to stand in truth, reject deception, and live out biblical holiness by the power of the Holy Spirit. You're not alone. The remnant is growing worldwide.
If you want to know how to live, don't look to the world, but rather look to the Word. That's what we'll do today on Light on the Hill. Pastor James Kaddis is taking us through First Thessalonians right now, as part of our series, “Living in the Last Days.” And we're about to focus on chapter four. Here the apostle Paul describes the Believer's Walk. We'll learn through this study how to walk in a God-pleasing manner. We most certainly need encouragement in this area as we're bombarded with messages to go in the opposite direction in the world as we know it.

The long-awaited third film in the notorious anti-Catholic parkour LEAP trilogy follows its lo-fi predecessors LEAP (2010) and LEAP: RISE OF THE BEAST (2011), continuing to proselytize its staunch anti-Vatican message with an athletic twist. Director Christopher Tempel returns, now armed with a drone camera, and delivers a crisp, ambitious reboot to a series that clearly holds nostalgic value for him despite his open disappointment in the first two films, which he considers amateurish. Characters Blake, the handsome parkour-running college boy lead, and Liz, his hometown girlfriend who works at her grandmother's coffee shop, even watch LEAP: RISE OF THE BEAST within the movie, creating a truly meta moment. Blake remarks, “It's a little cheesy.” Liz agrees but adds, “Better than the first one… the director spent like $200,” prompting Blake's deadpan “Woof!” Ironically, the first two LEAP films feel more authentic and excited, with a scrappy auteur spirit that this reboot largely sacrifices in favor of Tempel's improved technical precision. Still, LEAP (2025) features striking special effects, including a chilling scene where blood runs from a tap until a “blessed” character touches it, suddenly turning the water clear. The “blessed” in this film are Seventh Day Adventist sabbath keepers like Blake and Liz, who resist Catholic programming that encourages Sunday worship over Saturday. Tempel doubles down on his outspoken belief that a literal reading of the Bible naturally leads to Seventh Day Adventism, portraying Christianity as having been “pranked” by the devil and his servant, the Vatican, into dishonoring God's true way—ensuring that many sincere Christians will end up in hell. It is one of the harshest, most legalistic interpretations of Protestantism, suggesting that God values paperwork over love. This uncompromising message, paired with the film's polished digital effects and fully AI-generated soundtrack, results in a cold, tedious viewing experience.

My message today is on the biblical commandment for born again believers in the end times to be LOOKING for the Lord, WAITING for the Lord, and WORKING right up to the moment when He shall, and will, appear unto us. These are not "high-level concepts of Christianity", but rather the doctrinal marching orders given to us by the apostle Paul. Live Sunday Service starts 11:00 AM in the Bookstore, come join us!“Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession; That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:” 1 Timothy 6:12-14 (KJB)
As Pastor Dion continues his teaching series, he'll be explaining how lawlessness and wicked living will increase as the love for God grows cold in the Last Days. When Jesus says, “And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold,” He is speaking of a moral decline. In the last days, there will be a decay in moral standards and values. God's holy and righteous standard for living will be spurned and forgotten by many. Instead of following God's standard, sinful humanity will follow its own way.

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 56 Gary discusses general interpretative principles about the Bible and specifically, the book of Revelation. When people become Christians due to some scary interpretation of the end times taught by a well-meaning teacher, they often jump right to the last book to begin their initial reading of the Bible. This usually causes more confusion than clarification for them.

It was a pleasure to have Gary Heseltine back on the program, a former detective turned independent UAP investigator. In 2023, after years of research, he released a book, “Non-Human”, about the 1980 Rendlesham forest incidents (RFI), one of the most spectacular and complex UAP events in history.In July of 2025, a documentary about RFI, “Capel Green”, was released (at the time of recording this video, neither Gary nor I had seen the whole film, only trailers). Gary was involved in the early stages of the production, but he decided to walk away years ago because he wanted to get the book out. He knew he was sitting on unique information.“I wanted to get the truth out there.”In the early days, the RFI was to some extent covered in the media, because of a memorandum a commander of the air force base where the incidents took place released. It described parts of what had been seen and experienced. There was also one open witness.But soon, things began to be covered up by the higher echelons. Gary unveils much of it in his book.One compelling category of evidence the new documentary goes more into than Gary did in his book is the scientific proof that something strange happened. Gary had agreed with the film team not to talk about it in the book. But now he can.“There have been background radiation checks done where people said they saw craft or lights. And yes, there's weird underground isotopic ratios that shouldn't be there.”The film should be well received in the UFO community, Gary thinks.“But there is still a lot of politics around the RFI. The narrative is being controlled.”One thing the controllers don't want to talk about is the evidence of a conspicuous second UFO landing, where beings were seen – and filmed – by several witnesses (the whereabouts of the film material is unknown).Gary's book and the “Capel Green” documentary land in a time of unprecedented UAP disclosure activity. Gary closely follows the legislative process in the US congress. He is both excited and frustrated.“We've moved forward slightly, but not enough.”The first witness hearing in 2023 (with whistleblower David Grusch) had a profound impact, but the second one in 2024 didn't. The UAP Disclosure Act has been gutted twice. Hopefully it can pass in full later this year.There are still attempts at whitewashing and downplaying the subject by the Pentagon and its loyal journalists. But at the same time, people in the know are becoming more open, and new whistleblowers emerge.“The Pentagon is hanging on by their fingernails to keep this story down.”Trump has also appointed many people in prominent positions who are surprisingly open about their wish for UAP transparency, like Intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.A pivotal documentary, “The Age of Disclosure”, premiered at a film festival in March but has so far not gotten general distribution. Gary thinks it is meant to be part of a broader, coherent disclosure event.If official disclosure continues to be stalled, Gary believes there is a risk of ‘catastrophic disclosure', meaning an incontrovertible mass sighting livestreamed by millions before the public has been prepared for it.Finally, Gary drops a bombshell piece of news: A large, week-long UAP conference with major players, including politicians, is in the works. He points out that he cannot reveal all details and that it is not entirely set in stone yet, but it is supposed to happen somewhere in the Middle East, probably in October.“This UAP conference will be the most important conference in the world”Gary's bookICER (where Gary is vice-president)

Most believers don't realize this, but God is actively shaking the nations—and He's using the marketplace, not just the pulpit, to do it. There's a prophetic mantle coming on end-time believers who are called like Zerubbabel, carrying a kingly anointing to rebuild, reform, and rule in the midst of chaos. If you've ever wondered how to walk in that authority and discern the divine separation happening around the globe, this word will wake you up and send you into your assignment with fire.
