Gary answers email questions that he has received recently about Romans 11 and what “all Israel” being saved means. During the sixteenth century, in the Reformation and immediate post-Reformation period, several theologians addressed the question of Israel’s place in God’s plans for the future. Theodore Beza, John Calvin’s successor in Geneva, taught, according to Eng [...]
“I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty…. You will think me transported with Enthusiasm, but I am not. — I am well aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it will cost Us to maintain this Declaration, and support and defend [...]
Gary answers a listener question about the parenthetical statement in the Gospels about “letting the reader understand.” Earlier in Israel’s history, God threatened desolation because the Jews had defiled the temple with detestable things and abominations. “‘So as I live,’ declares the Lord God, ‘surely, because you have defiled My sanctuary with all your detestable idols and with all [...]
Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 46 Gary discusses how to read and understand the book of Revelation.

How can we avoid their mistakes? The following prophetic keys will help any interpreter unlock the do [...]
STEPHEN WHITSETT, M.Div. Th.M. Ph.D., is a Professor at Southern Region LIFE Bible College. I have not been able to find anything about this college. It does not matter because going to college and having academic credentials carry little weight with me. He wrote some comments about my response to Jason Bradfield on mellō. (see my articles on Americanvision.org) Whitsett is a published author. He [...]
Gary discusses a few “things in the news” and gives his unique spin on them. Atheist philosopher Bertrand Russell captures the essence of the materialistic ethic: “Brief and powerless is man’s life; on him and all his race the slow, sure doom falls pitiless and dark. Blind to good and evil, reckless of destruction, omnipotent matter rolls on its relentless way.” Even those who deny mor [...]
I received the following from a listener to one of my podcasts: I started to listen to the podcasts of Mr. DeMar. In the one regarding will the 3rd Temple be rebuilt, he states there is nothing in the New Testament mentioning one will be rebuilt. That, I believe, is not true. He mentions Daniel’s 70 weeks, 2 Thessalonians 2, and Revelation 11:1. He then states, “To me this is very clear that a 3rd [...]
Gary discusses Islam, the Gospel, and the recent interview of Ted Cruz by Tucker Carlson. Zionism is secular. Compare the return of Jews in 1948 to what is now called “Palestine,” where many Jews were living when Jews migrated before and after 1948, to the return of the Jews from the Babylonian captivity: Then Nehemiah, who was the governor, and Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taug [...]
Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 45 Gary answers a very often-asked question these days about Israel’s role in the biblical “end times.” Does Isaiah 11:11-12 refer to a distant return of Israel back to their land, or did it have a past fulfillment in view? No Jew reading Isaiah 11 in Isaiah’s day, during the time of the exile, and the return under the decree of Cyrus ( [...]

You knew it was going to happen. Like clockwork, the prophecy pundits are finding Bible prophecy being fulfilled “right before our eyes.” I expect the usual suspects like John Hagee, Joel Richardson, Joel Rosenberg, and many more who are going to rev up the prophecy market. This is from John “Blood Moon” Hagee in 2024: Prophetically we are on the verge of the Gog-Magog War that Ezekiel described i [...]
