Episode 60: Amir Tsarfati and the Purpose of Israel

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 60 Gary continues his response to Amir Tsarfati, who tried to take Kirk Cameron to task for comments he made about Israel. The restoration of Israel involved a transformation or change in the form that Israel was to take under the coming New Covenant order. In Episode 7, we looked at passages like Isaiah 49:5-6, Acts 15:16-17, and Romans 15:8-13 where th [...]

Answering Questions Leads to More Questions

Gary is interviewed by Rick Welch about the 3Q Controversy and how his podcast played a role in it. I’m not ashamed to admit that most of my work is “borrowed” from what many people have researched and published over the centuries. What follows will show that not everyone agrees with the interpretation that Matthew 16:27 refers to a future physical coming of Jesus. To prove this point, I suggest y [...]

Gary discusses celebrities like Rosie O’Donnell, Robin Wright, and Ryan Gosling who have decided to move away from the United States for political reasons. Jesus told His early disciples that they would be “brought before governors and kings for His sake” (Matt. 10:18), and they were as the book of Acts makes clear.

Episode 59: Responding to Amir Tsarfati's Response to Kirk Cameron

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 59 Gary responds to a recent video by Amir Tsarfati in response to something posted by Kirk Cameron. It’s obvious from the Bible that God is not going to restore every “physical seed of Abraham.” If God were going to do that, then why bother with the gospel? Paul does not mean by “in this way all Israel will be saved” (Rom. 11:26) that every Jew without [...]

Gary discusses recent news stories and responses to the Charlie Kirk assassination.

Gary addresses the current lack of call to order coming from American pulpits. America could be reduced to a burned out cinder, yet God’s Church will still go on. Even world-wide disasters (plagues and world wars) did not mark “the end.” As history shows, there have been many who have been premature in writing the obituary of the Church and Christian civilization. The doctrine of the Church is big [...]

Episode 58: The Last Days and the Murder of Charlie Kirk

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 58 Many Christians are claiming that the assassination of Charlie Kirk is yet another sign that the “last days” are upon us. We have heard all of this before. In fact, in 1988, we were assured that the rapture would occur sometime in a three-day period in September of that year. “But by sunset Tuesday [September 13, 1988], the end of the 48-h [...]

Gary discusses pastors and politics and answers a Facebook commenter named “Missionary Larry.” Some have abused Jesus’ name and deeds in their attempts to bring about a “better society.” Jesus has been portrayed as a social revolutionary, the purveyor of a “liberation theology” which is little more than Karl Marx dressed in religious garb. Because of the way Christ’s redemptive message [...]
