Happening Now With Don Stewart - Eschatology Video

IN OUR RECENT BIBLE STUDIES at International Bible Baptist Church of Riverside we have been looking at an overview of End Times Prophecies.  And I have made available to you via eNewsletter, blog, and on Facebook the YouTube videos and PowerPoint Presentations used in those Bible studies. 

Now I would like to go a step further and share with you a very good video from "Happening Now With Don Stewart."   In this video, Pastor Jack Hibbs and Don Stewart examine God’s prophetic Word in light of world events.  This session is on eschatology viewed in the light of current world events - and it is very relevant.

"Happening Now” is a ministry of Pastor Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills.  The web site "RealLifeWithJackHibbs (dot) org/bible-prophecy-perspective/" has this intro: 

"The study of Bible prophecy has often been misrepresented leading to widespread confusion.  Join us as we examine God’s prophetic Word in light of world events.  During this live broadcast we will consider current events through the lens of Scripture that supports a safe and well-grounded understanding of God’s Word in these seemingly unstable times.  There will also be a time of Questions & Answers."

Jack Hibbs is the Founder and Senior Pastor of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills located in Southern California.  Jack’s teachings are heard on many international radio stations throughout Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Australia, and throughout the Hawaiian Islands.  He is best known for his passionate, expositional teachings.

Don Stewart is an internationally recognized Christian apologist and speaker.  He graduated cum laude from Talbot Theological Seminary and the International Seminar in Theology and Law in Strasbourg, France, as well as from Biola University.  Don is the author/co-author of over seventy books.  His various writings have been translated into over thirty different languages and have sold over a million copies.  Don has traveled around the world proclaiming and staunchly defending the Christian faith.  He currently hosts Pastor’s Perspective on KWVE 107.9 FM Radio.

On a personal note, after being saved in 1987, for many years I have been listening to the Christian Talk Show "Pastor's Perspective" on KWVE Christian Radio.  For most of those years Don Stewart has been the host of the show, with Pastor Chuck Smith and various other Calvary Chapel pastors as cohosts. 

And I can say that, even though I have not always agreed 100% with the answers given on the show - I have learned a lot from listening to the discussions and that has helped me grow more mature in my knowledge of God's Word.  It is kind of like a discussion style Bible study - except that being on the radio I cannot raise my hand and ask a question.

What happened when I did not agree with an answer on the show?  Glad you asked.  I would do as the apostle Paul teaches us in Acts 17:11 - go to Scripture, testing the teaching and the teacher - against Scripture.  That, in my opinion, should be a major goal of all Bible studies, Sunday School classes, and Bible discussions - to encourage, motivate, and at times, push all of us toward digging deeper into God's Word for greater knowledge.

With that said, let me share with you this very thought provoking video:

Let us all be ready when He comes unexpectedly, imminently, to take all believers home to be with Him (John 14:1-3) where we will be protected as the world experiences seven years of Tribulation, Refiner's Fire, as God closes the final chapter of what He began in Genesis 1.

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

Bill
