PRETRIBBERS ARE ADLIBBERS The Restrainer 2nd Thessalonians 2:7 "For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way." The Last Days Church According to Pretribbers Pretribbers teach, that since the Holy Spirit indwells believers, the last days church effectively IS the restrainer that Paul spoke of in Thessalonians. Pretrib Adlib Dispensationalist C.I. Scofield taught, that the Holy Spirit's restraining ministry in the last days church, would be removed WITH the church at the rapture. Thus unleashing Satan's rule over the world. Millions have read Scofield's commentaries, and simply believed him. Arbitrarily and without question. Well... I have questions. Where does the bible describe a "Restraining Ministry" within the last days church? Scripture enumerates ministries of the Holy Spirit; such as gifts of faith and prophecy. But the gift of restraining ministry is not found. And if NOT found, how can the church actively engage in it? What exactly is a restraining ministry? Is it a call to fasting and prayer 24/7, resisting the devil's plot to rule the world? Is it prayer warriors going deep in the spirit realm, battling against the beast? The truth. "Restraining Ministry" is a demonic adlib. An unlawful intrusion into the Word of God, WITH THE INTENT TO DECEIVE. HERE'S WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS. The Last Days Church According To Scripture 2nd Timothy 4:4 "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." Fables? Greek word *MYTHOS* (G3453) It means fiction. Akin to the "Left Behind" novels. More than 80 million sold, exalting a pretribulation rapture. 2nd Thessalonians 2:3 "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, (APOSTASY) and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition" 1st Timothy 4:1 "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, (APOSTASY) giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils" Jesus said, "Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?" Brothers and sisters, never in the history of Christianity, has the church been so divided, worldly and devoid of Holy Ghost power. Our streets are filled with violence, riots, hate and racism. And the church is powerless to stop it. The trans movement with all its perverted tentacles, is running roughshod over our children, and the church is powerless to stop it. We are on the verge of another world war with cataclysmic consequences, AND THE CHURCH IS POWERLESS TO STOP IT. According to the liberal New York Times, abortions in 8 states ROSE by 60% in 2023, and the CHURCH was powerless to stop it! Yet somehow... The church has this "RESTRAINING MINISTRY", resisting the manifestation of the AntiChrist! Brothers and sisters in Christ, ABANDON the Pretrib rapture hoax. The church is not the restrainer, and never has been. Sincere believers are LEAVING the church. This is a satanic deception, to divert your attention from the Great Tribulation to an adlib, fake rapture.

The single greatest martyr of all time was a Jewish man named Jesus.

"...I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.” Psalms 122:1

THE 1000 YEAR PREMISE OF PRETERISM Circle in Square Theology 2 Peter 3:8 “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.” The bible speaks of a 1000-year period in which Jesus reigns on this earth and the nations worship the King of Kings. A literal interpretation of this 1000-year period disrupts the 70AD teachings of Preterism. They assert that God really didn't mean 1000 years, but rather an extended period of time that has already transpired. However, Preterists cannot define how long that period of time was. What exactly constitutes an extended period of years that does not exceed the Preterist framework? Did Jesus Christ reign 10 years? 50? How many? Because Preterists believe all prophecies are fulfilled, they are forced to grapple with this. Revelation 20 V2 Satan is bound for 1000 years. V3 The devil is cast into the bottomless pit for 1000 years. V4 The martyrs of tribulation rule and reign with Christ for 1000 years. V5 There's a 1000-year gap between the first and second resurrections. V6 Those who take part in the first resurrection will reign with Christ 1000 years. V7 Satan is loosed after the 1000 years expire. Six times the bible stipulates exactly 1000 years! Ironically, Preterists don't know how many years Jesus reigned after 70AD. There are no starting or ending dates. Not one person or historian, not one single nation that yearly worshipped the King, bothered to chronicle how many years they worshipped! The Preterist proof text. “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.” 2nd Peter 3:8 Preterism uses this as evidence that since God views a single day the same as a thousand years, and vice versa, this in turn makes the 1000-year period merely symbolic. And the actual timeframe unknowable. HOWEVER... Verses 3 and 4 Here Peter speaks of last days scoffers mocking the return of Christ. “And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.” IGNORANCE IS BLISS Verses 5-7 Here Peter rebukes the scoffers for their ignorance, how that even though God destroyed the world with water; God has also preserved the world for thousands of years unto destruction by fire. What is their ignorance? That because thousands of years have passed since creation, then the return of Christ is a joke. It's been delayed too long for any reasonable mind to accept. Why is this ignorance? Because God is an eternal being; God has no beginning of days nor end of days. God did not have a creator! God created time! THAT'S WHY... "one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.” But wait... there's more. 2 Peter 3:9 “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” Did you get that? First, God keeps His promises! Not as men who are slack in keeping them. Second, God is longsuffering and patient! Because He wants all to repent and not perish. THAT'S WHY... "one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.” ANALOGY OF PATIENCE In conclusion, Peter's reference to a thousand years as a day, was an analogy describing the patience of a longsuffering God. Due to this being an analogy, employing this text to redefine the meaning of a thousand years in Revelation, makes absolutely no sense. It is illogical. It's like trying to put a square in a circle! And does great harm to biblical prophecy. Without proper context, everything becomes subjective. If we allow Preterism to obscure God's 1000 year timeframe, then we must question all of God's timeframes. Will the antichrist really reign 1260 days? Does Daniel's 70 weeks really mean 490 years? Was Egypt really in bondage 400 years? Was Israel really in the wilderness 40 years? Did Adam really live 930 years? Or do we just conveniently change the prophecies of Revelation to merge with Preterism? 1 John 4:1 “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God...”

The architect of evolution was Charles Darwin. But the architect of creation was Yahweh God.

Have you ever struggled with knowing what the will of God is for your life? Here it is. 1 Thessalonians 4:3 “For this is the will of God, even your sanctification..." Because the bible says that without holiness, no man shall see the Lord. Hebrews 12:14

Philippians 1:10 “That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;” What do Christians approve of today? Upon what, do you as a Christian, place your approval? To objectively answer those questions, we need only look at the condition of churches, and the congregants who flock to them. Rock concerts for praise and worship. Approved. Pastors who commit adultery. Approved. Prophecies that never happen. Approved. Street talk from the pulpit. Approved. Speaking in tongues with no interpreter. Approved. The prosperity gospel. Approved. Youth pastors in premarital relationships. Approved. Immodest and worldly attire. Approved. Some may say church attendance does not mean approval of everything. But what did the apostle Paul say? Approve things that are EXCELLENT. Your church attendance is a tacit approval of unbiblical acts and deeds in your church, and God sees it as such. Your church attendance is a tacit approval of what you know is false doctrine. But you attend anyway. Your support of preacher personalities who have disgraced the pulpit is unacceptable to God, because God has standards for the ministry. But most don't really care about God's standards, do they? There is nothing excellent about a rock concert as a form of worship. Nothing excellent about adultery and infidelity in leadership. Nothing excellent about chaos and worldliness in church services. 1 Corinthians 14:40 “Let all things be done decently and in order.” Sincere believers in Jesus will leave these dead churches! I have concluded that those who don't, simply don't care what God thinks or says. The bible describes the condition of these types Christians in Revelation 3:16. So please allow scripture to provide instruction on excellence, from the perspective of the author of the bible, God. EXCELLENT SPEECH Approved. Proverbs 17:7 “Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.” God hates foolish talk. Ephesians 5:4. We will be judged for every idle word that proceeds from our mouths. Matthew 12:36 “But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.” How many of you have ever been hurt by liars and gossipers running their mouths in church? And the 'princes' do nothing, or are themselves complicit? Innumerable Christians have been spiritually injured by this very thing. Some have quit God altogether. This is an evil that happens every single day. If you're in a church like this, get out. CHARITY Approved. 1 Corinthians 12:31 “But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.” That excellent way is charitable. NOT arrogant. NOT vindictive. NOT hateful. NOT greedy. Do you attend a church which resonates with greed, arrogance and retribution? Whatever happened to charity? Jeremiah 23:1 “Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD.” HIS NAME! Approved. Psalms 8:9 “O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!” There is nothing excellent about the name of your church leader. Or the name of your denomination. Or the name of the televangelist you love. Or the name of the Christian personality you throw money at. “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12 HIS WORKS! Approved. Isaiah 28:29 “This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.” NOT the workings of men! NOT the wisdom of men. NOT the counsel of men. They are nothing compared to the wisdom that only God can impart to your life! HIS GREATNESS! Approved. Psalms 150:2 “Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.” Oh how the lips of Christians praise the greatness of their beloved preachers and prophets. Their lips praise them more than God! They will fall out with you in an instant should you dare say a word about them. This my friends, is wrong. “By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.” Hebrews 13:15 In conclusion, it's past time that followers of Jesus stand up, be strong and say... "I will approve what God approves. And I will denounce what God denounces."

Had God not blinded Israel, the Gentiles would still be lost today.

Luke 21:10 “Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:” This verse is often overlooked in typical end time exposition. I think partly because there have always been wars. What Jesus referred to prophetically, is a particular crisis that will arise immediately prior to His return. The word 'Nation' is derived from the Greek word "ethnos" G1484. Ethnos is a descriptive word to identify groups of ethnic peoples, races and tribes. In the early 2000's, I travelled often to the Detroit metro area. I noticed a mosque being erected, which was quite strange to me since Islam is not compatible with a nation espousing Judeo/Christian values. Today in 2026, there are approximately 4000 mosques across the USA. This country has been invaded with an ethnic people who despise our values and strive to subvert our democracy and way of life. And not just Muslims. Thanks to the Obama / Biden administrations, ethnic groups from all over the world invaded this country leading to massive, scandalous fraud and unrest in our communities. This was not accidental. It was planned. We're in the last days. Texas now has an entire Islamic city called EPIC, selling real estate exclusively to Muslims. It has an Islamic school, funeral home and college. They practice not our laws, but rather Sharia law. A literal nation within our nation. Europe is also experiencing severe civil unrest due to mass Muslim invasions of their communities. The UK is on the verge of civil war breaking out on their streets directly because of ethnic conflict and disunity. The Middle East is a tumultuous fireball ready to explode explicitly because of ethnic divisions. Jesus foretold us there would be "distress of nations." My brethren in Christ, These things are not happening by accident. They are not happening by coincidence. They are not happening by chance! They are happening because Jesus prophesied they would! ETHNIC GROUPS ARE AT WAR! We are witnessing in real time, end times prophecy coming to pass. The bible can be trusted. Once again, fulfilled bible prophecies prove that we are living in the generation that will experience the second coming of Jesus Christ. Blessings

Is drinking alcoholic beverages a sin? I've heard preachers tell their flocks that if wine touches their lips, they've practically committed the unpardonable sin. They claim that Jesus used grape juice at the last supper, not wine. Now if that's what you believe, and that's the hill you'll die on, then please read no further. This is not for you. Here are simple biblical truths for believers to abide by. WINE IS ACCEPTABLE 1 Timothy 5:23 “Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.” Here the apostle Paul instructs Timothy that wine used for health concerns was acceptable. Not to become an imbiber, but rather to use it sparingly for the express purpose of a healthier constitution. I saw an X post a few days ago from a man who claims to be a Christian, extolling his affection for bourbon. Here's his post. Yes, I have been known to drink a little fine bourbon from time to time. That makes me no less of a Christian than anyone else. Deal with it. 8:07 AM · Sep 24, 2026 5,154 Views Deal with it? Very obnoxious take. No believer in Christ should boast about their use of alcohol, especially in such an uncharitable manner. And you might say... "Uncharitable to who?" It has everything to do with a biblical principle. Paul had no problem eating meat sacrificed to an idol, inside the idol's temple, before the idol itself! 1 Corinthians 8:4 “As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.” Paul through his knowledge of God, understood that an idol worshipped by cultists, is actually nothing and there's only one God. So upon invitation would most gladly dine on a meal of fresh meat with an undefiled conscience. Because of his knowledge. BUT.... 1 Corinthians 8:10 “...if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;” then your liberty destroys your weaker brother. That would be a great sin! DEAL WITH IT? Point being, you don't enter a temple and dine with your puffed up knowledge, then tell the weaker brother to "deal with it." You don't drink alcohol with your puffed up knowledge in front of a weaker sister and say "deal with it." WHAT ARROGANCE Keep it to yourself! Can Christians lay aside their boasting long enough to consider someone besides themselves? “Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God..." Romans 14:22 KEEP IT TO YOURSELF! This is why brothers and sisters, that knowledge puffs up, ascends to arrogance and injures others. It's charity that edifies. Charity will protect the conscience of the weaker brethren. 1 Corinthians 8:13 “Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.” The bible says that whatsoever is not of faith, is of sin. If you partake of wine and your conscience is not defiled, then this is not a sin for you. 1 John 3:21 “Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.” What about strong drinks? Proverbs 31:6 “Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish..." With that said, we must not use these principles to justify smoking cigarettes and cigars, going to bars and nightclubs, and other carnal cravings that defile the temple of God. And destroys your testimony, And destroys your weaker brethren for whom Christ died. 1 Corinthians 13:13 “And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.”

Romans 8:31 “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?” Amen.

The Problematic Prophecy that Preterists Loathe Full Preterits teaches that all biblical prophecies were fulfilled in 70AD. 2000 years ago... The primary forms of communication were written and spoken words. The primary form of transportation was the horse. The primary form of cultivation was the ox. The primary form of warfare were chariots and swords. Fast forward to 2026. Forms of communication are no longer constrained to written and spoken words. Modern transportation no longer utilizes the horse. Modern agriculture no longer depends on the ox. Modern warfare no longer relies on the sword. The prophecy? “But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” Daniel 12:4 I am thankful Preterism is false. Otherwise we'd all be on horseback.

It's unfortunate that many good and Godly women are disillusioned about their marriages, lives and futures. It is not their fault. At fault are men... husbands and fathers, who refuse to lead. Refuse to train up their children. Refuse to love their wives as Christ loved the church. Refuse to find a church to take their family. Refuse to discipline their children. Refuse to hold down a full time job. Refuse to seek God. Refuse to be the high priest of their home. Fathers, husbands... your wives look to you for leadership, protection and affirmation. Your sons think you're the smartest, strongest man alive and want to grow up to be just like you. Your daughters think you're the handsomest guy they've ever known and want to marry someone just like you. Get off the computer. Get off the video games. Get off the conference calls. Get off the couch. RISE UP IN JESUS AND BE THE MAN OF YOUR HOME. A true Christian husband and father is the man who humbles himself before God.

IRREFUTABLE PROOF THAT THE 'TRIBULATION SAINTS' TEACHING IS FALSE Revelation 13:8 “And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” Do you believe God's word? This single verse tells us two things. First If your name is not written in the book of life, you will worship the beast. It will be too late to get your name written, too late to find Jesus and get saved. You will worship the antichrist and take the mark of the beast. Sealing your fate forever. Second If your name is found written in the book of life, you will be protected from that deception of the antichrist. Praise God! Think about this. If the church is gone, there will be no preachers. No teachers. No evangelists or missionaries. No gifts of the Spirit, no singing and praise in the empty churches. If a pretrib rapture is true then immediately afterwards, the world will not have even a semblance of holy and righteous, God-fearing men and women upon it. If the Holy Spirit departs with the church, then the world will most certainly be devoid of the Holy Spirit. Right? Yet somehow, there will be a mass revival of life! Without the Holy Spirit! THE TWO WITNESSES / A REVIVAL OF DEATH Revelation 11 They will slay the two witnesses and rejoice! Two men sent by God to prophesy will be hated! Nations and people of earth will send gifts to each other joyfully praising the beast for killing them, creating a revival of death throughout the world! Their dead bodies will be left on the streets for the dogs. Their message was rejected. Their prophetic warnings were refused. No revival of the Gospel and salvation. NO REPENTANCE Revelation 16:9 “And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.” They knew God had power of the plagues but instead of repenting, they grit their teeth and blasphemed! No mention of people finding God and getting saved, becoming the so called 'Tribulation Saints'. On the contrary. The world will see mass unprecedented deception. The Mark of the Beast. Fire from heaven. Miracles. A man who claims to be God in the temple. And the strong delusion sent by God himself, upon those who rejected the love of the truth. Revelation 13:14 “And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast..." Because of this, I contend that the saints persecuted by the beast are living saints who enter the great tribulation, as opposed to a Holy Ghost revival creating the 'Tribulation Saints'. Blessings

If a pretrib rapture happens at the sounding of the last trump, why do seven more trumpets sound afterwards?

The first coming of Jesus Christ did not happen in phases. Neither will his second.

The single greatest self destructive truth about Preterism, is that you are still in your carnal body.

HALLOWEEN and Christianity The devil is greatly pleased, when every year on All Hallows Eve, men women and children don costumes as witches, vampires and Freddy. 1 Thessalonians 5:22 “Abstain from all appearance of evil.”

HALLOWEEN The devil is greatly pleased, when every year on All Hallows Eve, men, women and children roam the streets and pretend to be something they're not.
