On Thursday, May 8th, 2008, Debbie (the webmaster) passed away, bringing to a close her 4+ year fight with cancer. As per her wishes, this site will remain online indefinitely.

2 Peter 3:1-9 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: 2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour: 3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 4 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. 5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. 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. 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.

Two thousand years ago the apostle Peter wrote that at the time of the end there would be scoffers asking, "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." Sure enough, people will say, "There have always been storms," or, "There have always been earthquakes," or, "I've heard all my life that Jesus is coming." These statements are true, these things have always been present, Christians have been watching for Jesus for almost two thousand years. But things are different today. The most significant sign of the Promise of His Coming is the fact that Jewish people live in and rule Israel as was prophesied in the Old Testament. From the time of the Babylonian captivity in about 606 B.C. until May 14, 1948, the Jewish people had lived in the land of Israel from time to time, but it was not under their governmental control. Today it is, and this is the most significant sign of the endtimes: the sign that indicates it is long past time to start looking up.

I believe that world conditions indicate that we are in the closing days of history as we know it. The sea and the waves are roaring; nations, particularly Israel, are taking their places as prophesied; the weather is out of sync; the forerunner to the mark of the beast is being used in medical applications in our country; terrorism is occurring worldwide leading to distress of nations with perplexity; the Roman Empire is being revived; all eyes are turning to the middle east watching the culmination of the ancient dispute between Isaac and Ishmael. The list goes on and on. All things are definitely NOT continuing as they have been from the beginning of creation.
