Heresy Hunting as a Theological Blood Sport

Heresy Hunting as a Theological Blood Sport

P. Andrew Sandlin posted the following on Facebook: “Greg Bahnsen’s name has been invoked in the defense of the hyper-preterist heresy.” He doesn’t say who. For those of you who do not know, Greg Bahnsen was a professor at Reformed Theological Seminary in the 1970s when I was a student there. He taught apologetics, ethics, and a course on eschatology. His article “The Prima Facie Acceptability of [...]

The Birth of America

The Birth of America

Gary discusses the early history of the colonies, and how they founded their laws and constitutions on the Bible. A misconception is held by many that the drafting and signing of the Declaration of Independence was the beginning of our nation. Abraham’s Lincoln’s “Gettysburg Address” (Nov. 19, 1863) contributes to the confusion with the opening line: “Four score and seven years ago our fathers bro [...]

Why I Support the “No Kings” Movement

Why I Support the “No Kings” Movement

Those who sponsored the “No Kings” marches across the United States on October 19, 2025, stated, “Because this country does not belong to kings, dictators, or tyrants. It belongs to We the People—the people who care, who show up, and who fight for dignity, a life we can afford, and real opportunity. No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.” Are we to assume that only they care, fight for dignity, and stri [...]

On Platforms and Rattlesnakes

On Platforms and Rattlesnakes

Gary discusses the upcoming event with Doug Wilson as well as some of the critics voicing their opposition to it. My first foray into the topic of eschatology was not a directed attempt to answer dispensationalism. When I was hired by American Vision in 1981, I concentrated on worldview issues with the first volume of God and Government that was published in 1982. I would often lecture on the subj [...]

Episode 62: Gary DeMar is a Worldview Guy

Episode 62: Gary DeMar is a Worldview Guy

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 62 Gary explains why he spends so much time writing and talking about Bible prophecy—it’s a worldview issue. Soon after graduating college in 1973, I began to delve into the complexities of Bible prophecy once again. By this time I was no longer the biblically ignorant convert. Bible study had become a daily affair. While I was certainly far from b [...]

John Hagee “Takes a Licking but Keeps on Ticking”

John Hagee “Takes a Licking but Keeps on Ticking”

The advertising phrase “Takes a Licking but Keeps on Ticking” can be traced back to the 1950s when Timex Corporation introduced its famous watch commercial featuring John Cameron Swayze. In the commercial, Swayze subjected the watch to various tests, such as being dropped from heights or submerged in water. Despite these challenges, the watch continued to work. Check out these magazine ads. “Unusu [...]

Hopscotching Through the Bible

Hopscotching Through the Bible

Gary discusses Rep. Rosa DeLauro, who is now trying to teach how the Bible applies to everyday life, especially economics. Money is the most marketable commodity. It is the central economic institution. It is the result of the division of labor, and it has become central to the division of labor. It is the source of price signals. The price system is the greatest source of information in history. [...]

Do Dispensationalists Follow the LGH Interpretive Model?

Do Dispensationalists Follow the LGH Interpretive Model?

Someone on Facebook wrote, “Why a Literal Historical-Grammatical Interpretation of Scripture Matters. When it comes to understanding the Bible, a literal historical-grammatical approach—taking the text at its plain meaning within its historical and literary context—is crucial.” I agree. I find it ironic that many who advocate the LGH model are selective in how it’s applied. The following is from d [...]

Peace in the Middle East

Peace in the Middle East

Gary talks about the recent brokered peace deal by Trump between Israel and Hamas. The opening line of the Marines’ Hymn “From the Halls of Montezuma” refers to the Battle of Chapultepec, the engagement between Mexican and American armies during the Mexican-American War in 1847. “When that battle ended, the United States had won a decisive military victory over General Santa Anna’s Mexican army th [...]

Episode 61: Will All Israel Be Saved?

Episode 61: Will All Israel Be Saved?

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 61 Gary concludes his response to Amir Tsarfati about Israel being saved and God’s promises to them. Amir Tsarfati responded to a short video that Kirk Cameron created in response to Ted Cruz’s comments about our nation’s obligation to Israel in an interview Sen. Ted Cruz had with Tucker Carlson. To say the least, it was contentious. That’s OK. Let [...]

Asteroids, Wormwood, and Prophetic Stagnation

Asteroids, Wormwood, and Prophetic Stagnation

While cleaning up my office, I came across a cassette tape of a sermon preached by Chuck Smith of Calvary Chapel on December 31, 1979. He told his very accepting audience that the rapture would take place in 1981. Russia was about to invade Israel. The former Soviet Republic had gone into Afghanistan. Smith said that it was the prelude to a full-force invasion of the Middle East. Russia is now bog [...]

The Prophesied Slaughter of Israel

The Prophesied Slaughter of Israel

Gary points out how much disagreement and confusion exists in popular media and Christian pastors about the future of Israel. The whole nation of Israel never was and never will be elected. It’s only the remnant that will be saved: “Isaiah cries out concerning Israel, ‘THOUGH THE NUMBER OF THE SONS OF ISRAEL BE LIKE THE SAND OF THE SEA, IT IS THE REMNANT THAT WILL BE SAVED’” (Rom. 9:27). [...]

North Korean Women and “Capitalist” Breast Implants

North Korean Women and “Capitalist” Breast Implants

Don’t ever say, “It will never happen here.” As bizarre as the following is, the rudiments of this new law are already operating in principle in the United States: North Korea has initiated a harsh crackdown on women suspected of having “capitalist” breast implants, labelling such cosmetic procedures as “un-socialist” and “bourgeois”, The Telegraph reported. The country’s security services are con [...]

Christian, Islamic, or Secular Nationalism?

Christian, Islamic, or Secular Nationalism?

Gary points out that the mainstream media’s obsession with the boogeyman of Christian Nationalism is a willful ignorance of Islamic Nationalism. Whoever claims sovereignty expects his subjects to govern his realm in terms of his law and name. Sovereignty, therefore, brings with it the inevitability of dominion, the power of governing and controlling all things. Noah Webster, in his American [...]

Episode 60: Amir Tsarfati and the Purpose of Israel

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 [...]

“Bubble Boy” Prophecy Speculation on YouTube

“Bubble Boy” Prophecy Speculation on YouTube

Facebook and YouTube are filled with amateur prophecy pundits who are out of touch with failed prophecy claims going back many centuries. It worsened with the advent of dispensational premillennialism and its various incarnations. Even so, it’s hard for many Christians to reason outside the dispensational bubble. It’s all they’ve heard or known. The dispensational bubble is their protective home. [...]

Answering Questions Leads to More Questions

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 [...]

The Ultimate Source for Morality and Everything Else

The Ultimate Source for Morality and Everything Else

The following is my response to someone from Australia on the topic of “free speech.” I pointed out that Australia does not have a provision in its Constitution for “freedom of speech.” SB: We have more freedom than the US. Look it up kid. Also, the Bible isn’t Western. It is an adopted Eastern religion. Hypocrites. GD: The Bible not being “western” is irrelevant. In addition, I’m not a “kid.” [...]

You Can't Outrun the Problems

You Can't Outrun the Problems

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. The apostle Paul declared, “Woe is me if I do not preach the gospel” (1 Cor. [...]

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

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 [...]
