The Bible frequently uses a particular word—one so important that if we miss its point, we neglect one of the greatest blessings God ever offered. The ramifications are enormous—”to reject it leads either to sadness or to wrath.”*

“The 1st Woe: Demons from the Abyss”
The ‘Abyss’—what is it? Where is it? And why are demons terrified of it? Even more, who frees its demons to run amok and who will—and won’t—be tormented by them? Big questions with big answers from Revelation 9.
“The Wrath Escalates”
When Jesus breaks the 7th seal, trumpets begin to blow—and with each blast God’s wrath intensifies. And it’s still just the beginning. It’s coming, and no one can stop it—so what do we do while we wait, and is there an escape-clause?
“Tribulation Saints: Death is not Defeat”
What about the people who ‘come to Jesus’ when God’s Wrath is unleashed on the world—why are they killed, how do they die, and what becomes of them in heaven? The lessons to us living today are huge…

“The Church in Smyrna: Standing for an Uncertain Future””
Jesus told the Church in Smyrna they would suffer, be slandered and dragged to the brink of death—and that He would be with them the whole time. After all, He’d already been down that road before. A great message for those questioning if standing for Jesus is really worth it…
“To the Church at Ephesus: No Love, No Church”

“Light of the Last Days” (With an important Prophecy Update)
Who are ‘the wise’ in God’s estimation? What does it mean to ‘shine like the stars’ in a dark world—and what does that look like when it happens? An important message for people living in the Last Days (that would be you…) (Daniel 12:3-4)
“Reasons for the Wrath” (Daniel 12, PART 2)

“The Great Tribulation: The Worst Days of Planet Earth” (Daniel 12, Part 1)
The Great Tribulation is coming—the most terrible days the world will ever endure are on the way. But why? And what about those destined to endure the horrors—some of them God’s very own people? What is God thinking? So glad He told Daniel…!
“Tomorrow’s News: What Moves You?”
A powerful study of Daniel’s prophecy of the Great Tribulation at the world’s end. But why did God reveal this to humanity? For us to be informed? Or is it for a much greater purpose? (Daniel 11, PART 4)
“Tomorrow’s News: The Devil’s Endgame”
God gave Daniel a glimpse of the “times of the end”, to be passed along to the Jewish people, and eventually to us. It’s among the most vivid and frightening pictures of the coming antichrist’s devastating impact on our future world—with the price of nonchalance too terrible ignore. (Daniel 11, PART 3)
“Tomorrow’s News: Israel and the Antichrist” (Daniel 11, PART 2)
Of the 135 prophesies in Daniel 11, most were precisely fulfilled over 2100 years ago. But a few remain—by far the most chilling—reserved for the end of history as we know it. Why did God revealed these events? The answer is electrifying—and a blessing. (Part 2)
“A Look Back at Tomorrow’s News” (Daniel 11, PART 1)
God revealed a 135 precise predictions to Daniel that came to pass over 2000 years ago—still, hundreds of years after Daniel’s lifetime. Certainly among the most spectacular prophecies in the Bible—and the most telling. Why God revealed these events is even more interesting—and inspiring. (Part 1)
“Spiritual War and the Fate of America” (Daniel 10, PART 2)
What’s happening in America—in the world for that matter— is far more than a culture war—it’s the symptom of a dangerous conflict between holy angels and the demons of hell fought in another dimension of reality—happening now—happening all around us. The question is, what can be done about it? This message is riveting study that unmasks perhaps the church’s greatest strength—and weakness.
“Daniel’s 70th Week: Abomination in The Tribulation Temple” (Daniel 9, PART 5)
Prophecy Update: In Bible prophecy, numbers are language—God uses them to simplify what He wants us to “know and understand”. So—what about those “70 weeks” that Gabriel told Daniel? Simple, terrifying, glorious. Much more than about the “70 weeks”—this update might leave you breathless…!
Special Audio Supplement (below): Daniel prophesied that in the Last Days the Jewish Temple would be rebuilt—but where? The Jews are intent on putting it back on the Temple Mount—which could cause another world war. Today, however, many Christians say that history got it wrong—that the original site was elsewhere and the Temple Mount was actually the Roman Antonia Fortress. Here are my thoughts on the controversy (read from Pastor Jay’s essay, The Controversy of the Jewish Temple Location, which you can also read HERE).
“The 70 Weeks of Daniel: The Supreme Victory” (Daniel 9, PART 4)

“The 70 Years of Daniel” (Daniel 9, PART 1)
What provoked God to exile His people to Babylon for 70 years? Daniel, Jeremiah and Moses knew—and it’s the key that opens the door to one of the most stunning Messianic End-Times prophecies in all of Scripture. Stay Tuned…
“Specter of the Antichrist” (Daniel 8, PART 2)
(PART 2) Before Jesus returns, the Bible says the Antichrist will ravage the world. But the Bible also tells us what he’s like in specific terms—that he’s a master deceiver and that God doesn’t want the world—or the Jewish people—to confuse this ‘Beast’ with His Son. And Daniel’s visions are the key… (Includes Afghanistan-in-Prophecy update)
“Shadow of the Antichrist” (Daniel 8, PART 1)
Before Jesus returns, the Antichrist will afflict the world—the Bible says so. But the Bible also tells us what he’s like in specific terms—that he’s a master deceiver and that God doesn’t want the world—or the Jewish people—to confuse this ‘Beast’ with His Son. And Daniel’s visions are the key…

“God and Monsters: What is The Son of Man?” PART 2

“God and Monsters: Who is the ‘Little Horn’?” PART 1
If you understand Daniel chapter 7, you’ll understand much of the Book of Revelation. Daniel saw visions of monsters—one of whom was the Antichrist—and Revelation tells us how we know. A powerful alert to the world—from the past—about our future…
