  • REVIVAL


    Revival is happening to shine light in the darkness of truth-rejecting society. Oh yes, the evil forces are doing their best to block the light, but they cannot succeed. God is moving in a powerful way. People are being awakened and born again to abundant spiritual life in Jesus. Many followers of Christ are aware that we are on the verge of a great awakening. And the more we testify of this awareness, the more the revival spreads. Read my books that show from the Bible that the kingdom of God is now, in this age, conquering the kingdom of the world.

    My book shows that Revelation is not just about future events, but to give meaning to the persecution and blessings God’s people can expect in every generation. Check out my book at amazon.com/dp/B0FN8KV8D1

  • Identifying the two Witnesses of Revelation 11

    My book, REVELATION UNROLLED, at amazon.com/dp/B0FN8KV8D1, shows the theme of Revelation to be [conquering through the word of God and the testimony of Jesus]. All seven churches are challenged to conquer, and the Lamb is found worthy to open the scroll because he has conquered. Recognizing this theme helps us identify the two witnesses of chapter 11 as personifications of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus enjoying spiritual conquest.

    Hopefully, reading this book will help you to see that God’s kingdom is presently, in this age, conquering the kingdom of the world. And in this awareness may God help us believe for a worldwide awakening. We can conquer through the faith that the Word gives us and testifying for Jesus.

    My study of the Bible for ministry in the last fifty years of pastoring inspired me to write four books. So I now, in my retirement, I want to encourage people through my books to apply the Word to their lives.

    My books are built on the idea that the triad of faith, hope, and love is the underlying spiritual fabric of all scripture. So the more we get into the Word, the more the Holy Spirit pours out his love in our hearts along with faith and hope. This give us the “joy of the Lord which is our strength” (Nehemiah 8:10).

  • The Bible as One Story: Seeing God’s Plan from Beginning to End

    Have you ever wondered how the stories of the Bible connect together?

    At first glance, the Scriptures can feel like a collection of separate books, events, and teachings. But when you step back, you begin to see a single, sweeping story — God’s plan to redeem His people. Jesus Himself explained this when He told His disciples, “These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you: everything written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms must be fulfilled” (Luke 24:44).The Bible is not random. From Genesis to Revelation, it is one unfolding drama of creation, fall, redemption, and restoration. Abraham’s faith, Joseph’s trials, Israel’s exodus, David’s kingdom, the prophets’ warnings — all of these threads point forward to Christ. When we read the Old Testament with the end in mind, we see God weaving the story toward the cross. And when we read the New Testament, we see the fulfillment of promises that began long ago.When believers grasp this, it changes how we read Scripture. Instead of isolated verses, we begin to see God’s consistent character and His unshakable plan. This brings confidence: the God who was faithful in the past is the same God who is faithful today. The Bible’s big story is meant to strengthen our faith. We can trust that our lives, too, are part of His unfolding plan.

The Bible Shows us How to Be Born Again into a New Life, One that Satisfies the Longing of Our Hearts

The salvation we need is more than an idea—it is a living experience of God’s grace. Every person is invited to turn from sin, trust in Christ, and receive the new birth that only the Spirit can give. To be born again is to have your heart awakened by God’s love, to know forgiveness through the blood of Jesus, and to begin walking in the power of the Holy Spirit. This is not reserved for the few, but offered freely to all who will come. You do not need to clean yourself up first—come just as you are. By grace you are saved through faith, and this faith works by love, producing holiness of heart and life. Today is the day of salvation. Open your heart to the Savior who died for you and rose again. Let Him make you new. “The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.” —Romans 8:16.

Friend, I want you to know that God’s love reaches out to you right now. No matter where you’ve been or what you’ve done, His grace is greater. This grace goes before us, drawing us to Christ, and it meets us the moment we open our hearts to Him. To be born again is to let Jesus make you new. It’s experiencing forgiveness, peace, and the Spirit’s power changing your heart from the inside out. This is a “new birth,” and it’s a gift that God freely offers to everyone. You don’t have to wait until you feel ready or worthy. You can come just as you are. When you trust in Jesus—who died for you and rose again—you’ll find a hope that never fails and a love that will give you peace. Why not open your heart to Him today? He’s waiting for you. “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” —2 Corinthians 5:17

You can pray to God saying something like this to have a new birth in Christ,

“I know that I have sinned and need Your mercy. Thank You for loving me and dying on the cross for my sins. I turn away from sin and put my trust in You alone. Come into my heart by Your Spirit, forgive me, and make me new. I receive the gift of salvation and the joy of being born again. Help me to love You with all my heart and to follow You all my days. Amen.”If you prayed a prayer like this in faith, know this: God has heard you. His Word promises, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Romans 10:13). Trust God for you guilt of sin to be forgiven, and for the love of Christ to be poured into your heart. You can walk each day with the assurance that His grace is enough and His Spirit will guide you. “The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.” —Romans 8:16
