Your Prophecy Update

2011 In Review

The Year in Prophecy

We have just finished our wrap-up of last year’s world events in the light of Bible prophecy. It is a long one – 31 pages in all –  and it covers the top 10 prophetic stories of the year.  It’s free of course, and we offer it in two forms: The first is the website version with hypertext that allows you to do further research in Prophecy Central’s “World of information about Bible prophecy.” At any point you can go to one of our hundred-plus subtopics for more insight from the Bible, commentaries, and pertinent news over the course of the last decade or so.

The other version is a downloadable and printable (pdf) file.  It’s like a small book about the events of 2011.

Study Guide

We have also just released another free resource: The Study Guide for our prophecy textbook, “Connecting the Dots: A Handbook of Bible Prophecy.”

This 12-week (five-days per week) guide can be used for personal enrichment, or as a stimulus for group discussion.  Once printed, you can put this 52-page manual into your own notebook, or you may order it as a spiral-bound book at a reasonable cost.

Basic Prophecy Knowledge

It’s the beginning of a new and very interesting year! This is a good time for all of us to get up to speed on Bible prophecy. Let’s do it together. Proverbs 27:17 says, “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”

I will ask a series of basic questions about prophecy and let’s imagine we are all part of a big growth group  where we can share our answers. I will just give some of the thoughts that I have heard from people before, and then I’ll make some suggestions.

After that, you and other brave souls can write their thoughts about
that question.  Then we’ll move on to the next question.  Hopefully, after a few of these Internet sessions, we will have raised our collective knowledge.

Here’s the first question…

WHY SHOULD WE CARE ABOUT PROPHECY?

This will be the title of our next post, and you can be thinking about it ahead of time.

Food Storage and Prophecy

Saturday, July 2nd, 2011

Barbara and I have been married for 50 wonderful years. Our life has been very good because of our personal relationship with The Lord Jesus Christ.

We have also been involved in pastoral ministry for 50 years, and are just now retiring after 20 years of leading our wonderful church family, Solid Ground Church, in Alta Loma, California. However, we do not want to waste our “golden years” with meaningless activity. For many years I have had a special interest in Bible prophecy, and have written articles and spoken at conferences on the subject. For the past 14 years I have edited “Prophecy Central.” It has become very popular among Evangelical Bible students and ranks very high in a Google search for either “prophecy” or “Bible prophecy.”. A good friend and I have written a new book, “Connecting the Dots,” that serves as a handbook of Bible prophecy. I will now be available to speak at various churches and conferences on the subject.

We have considered many ways of supplementing our income during our retirement, and have decided that helping other people discover and enjoy the incredible variety of food that can be stored for use in case of an emergency would be a perfect home-based business.. The best part is that these foods from Shelf Reliance are a delicious and nutritious addition to our regular diet. Because of that, older foods can be eaten instead of discarded when it is time for them to be replaced.

For our prophecy students, let me add this: We trust in the Lord for our provision, and we do not fear the future, even though we are seeing the fulfillment of many End-Times prophecies. We don’t store food to survive through the coming hard times of the Tribulation. We believe in the Rapture of the Church before the Tribulation begins. But simple logic and wisdom require people everywhere to be prepared for the kind of natural disasters and other emergencies we are seeing all over the world. In our area it just makes sense to have adequate supplies in case of an earthquake.

Please take a look at this great new product line.
