The main purpose of this text is to explain how this world has become an apostate world during the past one hundred years and how the local church is now becoming the apostate church. There are four parts to show how all of this has been happening. Part I starts with Satan's rebellion against the Lord in heaven. It follows his path to the Garden of Eden with Adam and Eve. It shows his demonic activity with Cain, the wicked generation that led to the Great Flood, the Tower of Babel, and the cross at Calvary. After that, it shows how he tried to destroy the local church from without by ...

The Bible knows nothing of an end of time. Men have invented the concept and moved much of the Bible’s teaching on eschatology down to that point. Although the Bible knows nothing of an end to time itself, the Catechism of the Roman Catholic Church bandies the term around quite a bit, applying it to the coming of Christ, the judgment, the destruction of the universe, the resurrection, and eternal conscious torment in hell, all at the end of time. Of course, if the Bible knows nothing of an end of time, it can’t possibly teach a coming of Christ, a destruction of our planet and stars, a ...

This book is based on the letter Jesus sent to the seven churches in Asia Minor, as depicted in Revelation Chapters 2 and 3. It is a book that can be read independently or it can be read alongside the companion book 'What's Wrong With My Church?' Some commentators have suggested that the letter to the churches in Asia Minor represents the church throughout the ages, through until present day. Because I cannot find any evidence in scripture for this viewpoint, I have simply applied what Jesus said in the Book of Revelation to all churches and Christians within the Kingdom of God. This book ...

We just need to know the steps to make it happen. In his book Mission Possible, Tim Tebow introduces the tools you need to set your priorities and align your choices with God’s call on your life. Now, in the insightful and practical Mission Possible Bible Study, he provides a clear plan for applying those principles and lessons.

Since the beginning of the earth, all of the Lord's prophets have looked with longing toward the end times, when the many promises of the Lord would be fulfilled and the Kingdom of God would finally be established upon the earth. With a larger canon than most religions, members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have access to a great many doctrines regarding this topic. Yet the words of Isaiah, which were so plain and simple to Nephi, tend to mystify the Latter-day Saints. The words of Ezekiel go largely unread. The dire warnings in 3rd Nephi are casually skimmed over. Why?...

The story of the ancient Church is one of a people who were finding their way over many years by the light that God shined forth for them. Today, we are looking back over the centuries with many more years of understanding but we stand on the shoulders of those who braved persecution, death, debate, and mystery on behalf of generations to come.

You’ve got a big responsibility. Seriously. God has entrusted His creation and everything in it to us. It’s an awesome responsibility. And it’s an awesome opportunity. Have you thought about how this stewardship applies at the local church level? Have you thought of all the ways God has given you so much for which you and your congregation are responsible? Think about, for example, your church facilities. You likely have a church building or multiple buildings that represent the generosity of many members in the past and present. What are you doing to be the best steward possible of ...

In this follow-up audiobook, after deconstructing four counterfeit ways, Jersak explores seven facets of the Jesus Way. Christ's radical revelation of true humanity beckons us, "Would you be human? Take up your cross and follow me."
