Revelation 1:7-8 - Getting The “Second Coming” Wrong (Part 2)

“Every time we get the second coming wrong, we also get the mission of the Church wrong. Instead of advancing the Kingdom, we start waiting for the sky to open. Instead of building, we bunker. Instead of pressing the crown rights of King Jesus into every corner of the cosmos, we shrink back, scared that Armageddon might break out on a Tuesday.”

Revelation: Christ Is King!

“Jesus didn’t die to rescue us from the world. He died and rose again to reclaim the world. And He’s doing it. Not by bombs or bureaucrats, but by bread and wine, by Spirit and Word, by saints and sacraments, by households of faith, and churches who refuse to retreat.”

Introducing Revelation

“Revelation is not a book of fear. It is a book of victory. It is the conquest of Christ, the expansion of His Kingdom with His bride, the Church, and the destruction of His enemies who get crushed beneath His feet. Every chapter declares His dominion—He reigns, He conquers, and His people overcome with Him. That is what the book of Revelation is all about.”

The Rapture Is Unbiblical

"Stop worrying about a rapture that will never happen. Stop waiting for an escape that was never promised. Stop wasting your days gazing at the sky when Christ has called you to put your hands to the plow. Take responsibility. Lead your family. Build your community. Shape the culture. Take dominion."

Rethinking The Rapture

"Jesus isn't coming back to rescue a defeated church—He is returning for a victorious bride. The Church is not an intermission in Jewish history. We are the Israel of God, and we are in the main event. The gates of hell do not advance against us. We are the ones who will see them fall as we march ever onward."

The Great Trumpet Blast

"The dispensationalists can keep looking at the sky, waiting for their heavenly airlift. They can keep sitting in their bunkers, flipping through prophecy charts, waiting for a trumpet that has already blown. But the rest of us? We go to war. We march forward. We proclaim the Gospel. We conquer the nations. We tear down every wall, every stronghold, every false kingdom, every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of Christ. Because the trumpet has sounded. The Kingdom has come. The battle belongs to the Lord. And His dominion will never end."

14 Reasons The GREAT TRIBULATION Already Happened

“The antidote to defeat isn’t despair, doom, or dispensational gloomery—it’s courage, resilience, and a fighting spirit. Christ calls us to plant the flag of His kingdom in the soil of this world, not wave the white flag of surrender. Just like the book of Acts, we advance no matter what—whether they mock us, imprison us, or even kill us. Because here’s the thing: if we persevere in faithfulness, we will win, not because of us, but because the world belongs to Jesus, and His dominion is unstoppable”

12 Reasons the Abomination of Desolation ALREADY Happened!

The destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 was not a tragic accident but the divine fulfillment of Jesus' prophecy, marking the end of the Old Covenant and the triumph of Christ’s redemptive work. History, Scripture, and prophecy align to declare that the abomination of desolation has already occurred, vindicating Christ’s authority and confirming the Gospel’s victory.”

The Jewish Love Grew Cold

Jesus warned that the love of many would grow cold, and history bears witness to how this prophecy came true. Under Satan’s relentless influence, the Jewish nation spiraled into a psychopathic frenzy of hatred—toward their enemies, their brothers, and eventually, themselves.”
