Question 1 In vs. 10 Jesus states that He will keep them from the hour of temptation which will come upon the whole world, to try them that dwell upon the Earth. My question is what is the hour of temptation? Revelation 3:10 Because you have kept the word of […]
The Timing of the Resurrection
Are you saying that Christians who die today will not be resurrected until the last day? Yes. Jesus said that everyone that the Father has given Him will be drawn to Him and raised at the ‘last day’, not sooner. Like any Jewish believer of the time, Martha’s response shows […]
The Prophetic Timeline in Hosea – [VIDEO]
Reggie discusses the prophetic framework (and yes… even timeline) upon which the mysteries of the faith do hang. Spoken at the 2017 Hosea Convocation.
