A Thief in the Night - Renewed Look at End Times

A Thief in the Night - Renewed Look at End Times, by Jim Schneider of Crosstalk America

Recommended sermon:

666, by James Hamilton, The Street Preacher

The text for this sermon is Revelation 13:16-18

"And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six." 

And a closely related text is Revelation 14:9-11 

"And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name."

Olivet Prophecy and the Rapture, by Pastor Mike Hoggard (Video)

Excerpt from this broadcast:

"...a bunch of shysters selling trinkets to the tourists. That's what a lot of these prophecy people are."

I don't believe the Bible teaches a "Pre-tribulation Rapture." But there is enough truth in the first 2 Left Behind movies that I like to recommend them (Don't bother with the new Left Behind movie staring Nicholas Cage. Somehow the Gospel got Left Behind in that movie!)
