William P. Young, the author of the best-selling novel “The Shack,” which was made into a major motion picture and decried by some as containing blasphemous and false doctrine, outlined in a recent interview that he believes people are still given chances to receive Christ’s sacrifice after death, remarking, “I don’t think the story is over just because you die.”

Hacking the Church
As most of you have noticed for quite a few years now, many old-fashioned, traditional, conservative churches have changed many things in order to conform to a changing world. You might say that they’ve been hacked by demonic programmers.
The End Game
By 2018, there are number of disturbing trends sweeping across the western world that seem to only be building momentum:

- Growing intolerance of Biblical Christianity

- Marked rejection of objective truth for subjective reasoning
- Marked increase of violence and anger
- Marked increase of apathy

Armageddon: Who’s Who in the Lineup
This is a very important piece of real estate situated in Israel, also referred to as the Valley of Jehoshaphat, otherwise known as Armageddon. Perhaps you have heard of this place, even if you did not attend Sunday school or graduate with first-class honors. It is located in Jezreel, just to the east of Megiddo in northern Israel. The word Armageddon actually means “Mount of Megiddo.”
Armageddon is both a battle and a place. So, in the context of today’s article, I will be referring to this as the very last war described in the Bible, within its location bearing the same name.
Evangelists, Private Jets, Generosity, and Stewardship
As followers of Jesus, how should we react to the news that Jesse Duplantis claims that God told him to buy a $54 million jet for his ministry?
Should we condemn him for taking the prosperity message to its logical extreme?
Should we say, “That’s between him and God?”
Or should we say, “How do I help the man of God travel in style? Where do I give?”
