The Rapture is for saints, not sinners Or, the Tribulation is for sinners, not saints! The purpose for the Tribulation cannot be ignored. It was always intended to be a time of judgement, a time of cleansing for the whole earth, particularly for God’s people Israel. The end-times will usher in Israel’s time of Jacob’s […]

My call from God to Christian schools (Part 6) The govt VRQA were so opposed to anything biblical that it was hard to see how River City Christian College (RCCC), Echuca, was going to get out of the no-creation dilemma. One thing is clear: if the previous principal had been still running the school, it […]
My call from God to Christian schools (Part 5) In 2006 we spent 6 months travelling around the outback of Australia, including a risky trip across remote desert areas from 80 Mile Beach to Alice Springs, around 1600km of extremely remote tracks where a breakdown could mean disaster, especially on your own as I was, […]
My call from God to Christian schools (Part 4) I almost lasted a full three years teaching a difficult class at Yirara College, Alice Springs. We were able to do a lot of outback travel while there, being already in the outback to start with. Alice Springs had 1-week school holidays after 1st and 3rd […]
My call from God to Christian schools (Part 3) After leaving Benalla Christian School, I taught Yr 6 at Heathdale Christian College (Werribee). At first I received a lot of necessary support from a caring administration after being effectively sacked from the previous school, sacked (along with the other teacher) because I (with the other […]
My call from God to Christian schools (Part 2) I wasn’t overly deterred by the negative effects of my foray into turning my teaching into a ministry at a Christian school. I admit that I’d had rosy-tinged views of how enjoyable it would be if I could actually use my teaching as a Christian ministry. […]
My call from God to Christian schools (Part 1) I started teaching back in 1974 after completing a 3-year tertiary qualification in Education (majoring in Maths and Educational Psychology), followed by a 3-year BA degree at Melbourne University (majoring in both Pure Maths and Statistical Inference, plus Psychology and Music added on as submajors). Much […]
If your church teaches heresy, then don’t stay; get out (even if it loses friends) Today God’s Church is under attack, and not all from without, either. There is mutiny developing within church ranks as the day approaches when the Church is gathered and taken home to heaven, in that event known as the Rapture. […]
God is using satan’s useful idiots to win His battles Satan’s useful idiots are those non-thinking people whom satan has taken control of via their use of his sinful pleasures. Maybe once upon a time they were able to think for themselves, but were progressively dumbed down by satan who demands control as the price […]
The signs that the biblical end-times are now Matthew 24 tells us a lot about the end-times of this world, culminating in Armageddon and the return of Christ the Messiah. And that we are meant to recognize its approach. When we see certain things happening today, we should recognize that the end is near. For […]
260716 Middle-east post 18 So what does this talk of prophecy all mean to you? If it is reasonably true (and current events certainly do seem to be lining up with much end-times prophecy), then you should assess what it means to you. If these are the end-times, then Israel is being prepared by God […]
260713 Middle-east post 17 So if these are the end-times (and it does appear almost impossible that the world could pull back from the brink now), then certain prophetical facts must be noted. 1/. While it does appear that satan and evil are overwhelming the world today, the opposite is the reality. God is in […]
260713 Middle-east post 16 We might look at world leaders today and wonder just how did they ever get to be elected? So many seem to be incompetent or evil, or even both incompetent and evil. Godlessness (aka political correctness in most cases) seems to be a prerequisite to getting votes in many nations. In […]
260713 Middle-east post 15 Satan has spent many centuries gaining de facto title to the world via his servants. This is what happened before Noah’s flood and satan has been building his title portfolio again ever since, by the continued selling of his illicit wares. Once he holds property or title of any sort, he […]
260712 Middle-east post 14 It must be noted carefully that the God of the Bible (and of His Church, and of His people Israel) is not the God of any other religion that claims his name as their God. In particular, the God of Islam is not the God of the Bible. Regardless of what […]
260712 Middle-east post 13 Keeping in mind Joel’s picture of the end-times “day of the Lord”, we can see that much world decision-making will not be of man but according to God’s sovereign will. Add to this Ezekiel’s prophecy (Ch.38) that in the end-times war that triggers WW3 culminating in Armageddon, Israel’s enemies will be […]
260712 Middle-east post 12 Joel gives us an interesting biblical aspect of these end-times. He uses the term “day of the Lord” 5 times in just 3 chapters (Joel 1:15; 2:1; 2:11; 2:31; 3:14). The term always applies to times when God overrules man’s dominion in order to establish His sovereign will. It often refers […]
260712 Middle-east post 11 If these are the end-times of the world as we know it, then they started on 7th Oct 2023 when Gaza terrorists invaded Israel, killing, maiming, torturing, raping around 1200 people, most of whom were unarmed civilians, including many children and even beheading babies. Today we have before 7th Oct and […]
Middle-east post 10 Israel, of course, when facing total destruction from their enemies (as listed in Ezekiel 38), would quickly agree to a mutual defence treaty if it were seen as absolutely the only option that might save their nation from annihilation. After all, Israel’s current reliance upon US to assist them is not from […]
260710 Middle-east post 09 Why would the antichrist want to save Israel, especially if he is empowered by satan? Wouldn’t satan actually hate Israel as his enemy? The simple answer is Yes! However, we have to look at what satan really wants above all. Yes, satan wants dominion over the earth, but even more than […]
260710 Middle-east post 08 Why would Europe be declaring war on the armies that invade Israel? In recent years most of Europe has been opposed (often obsessively so) to Israel’s efforts to defend itself against the terrorist rabbles that are working hard to destroy Israel. Yet prophecy says that it will be a European who […]
