Bible Prophecy Is More than Just About the Future
People are rarely indifferent about their future
The future influences people more than they realize. Stockbrokers purchase shares believing in a financial gain. Homeowners invest in a home and hope to retire on its appreciation. Commuters are often seen reading the astrology section of the daily newspaper. We listen to the weather before leaving to decide if we are bring an umbrella or not and discerning parents carefully guide their children`s plan for the future. But many have distorted reasoning concerning Bible prophecy. It is one of the most fascinating teachings of the Bible and God and it concerns everyone including you.
Prophecy—what it isn’t
When people think of prophecy, they think of fanatics predicting gloom and doom, endless and erroneous date-setting by cults, controversial speculation by the “so-called” experts, gurus who supposedly received a vision but no one can prove then abuse others, people out of touch with reality, or some superficial uttering that people take as God inspired but is not, agains writings with twisted symbolism like Nostradamus that could apply to anything, everything, and nothing. That is not Bible prophecy but fake news and false prophets that have cost people their lives. Compare the richness of Bible prophecy, is enriching, enlightening, But you must find out for yourself.
What does prophecy encompass?
Many think of prophecy in terms of the future only and is used to flatter ourselves and impress othere, but prophecy involves much more. The following is just the tip of the iceberg of the dimensions of prophecy. It k us:
Some characteristics of the spiritual thinkers are those who:
What we do, what we don`t do
We don't speculate, but teach facts and principles. Why? We take seriously what the Bible exhorts: not to go further than the Scriptures allow (1 Cor 4:6); wait for God’s plan to unfold (Ps. 106:13); and not to tamper with God’s Word (2 Cor 4:2). Speculation causes divisions, arguments, and controversy. Here are two examples of the nonsense of speculation.
If you ask prophecy experts who is Babylon the Great, you will hear a plethora of answers such as the United States, Catholic Church, restored Roman Empire, false religion, the Pope, and more. The speculators’ books contain hundreds of could be’s, maybe’s, we believe’s, many think, the consensus is, apparently, probably, and quite possible’s. You can`t build faith on speculation. Here`s another example.
In Rev. 6, for some, the rider on the white horse (unnamed) is the antichrist (a non-existent word in Revelation), but for others, it is Jesus. Completely the opposite! How controversial is it to teach the principle that when that rider leaves the gate, life as we knew it will be forever changed, regardless of its interpretation, and even if we are not presently aware of the when and who? Someone is lying.
Imagine the speculations when we compare the harlot, 666, 144,000, beasts, 2 witnesses, 7 heads, 10 horns, Gog of Magog, King of the North and South, the numbers of Daniel, and the woman! By speculating, we deprive the world of one of God’s most powerful teachings, we hide Truth, and open the way for imposters, manipulators, and exploiters. Truth builds faith, speculation compromises and sometimes destroys it.
We are not a church or a religion
We are not a church, or a religion, and you won’t be asked to join one, leave one, or give us your 10%. The teaching is complimentary to what is already dispensed. We are a non-denominational prophecy teaching organization who believe that everyone who has ever lived will be affected by prophecy. However, God doesn”t want or need parrots and puppets. He wants you to prove it to yourselves. Few are teaching it intensively or without speculation.
If (…)
(…) you think the world needs hope and truth, not illusions, want to deepen your faith, find out if there is a God, warn others about deadly false prophets, understand that the battle is invisible and not against flesh and blood, see yourself as one of the spiritual thinkers, want to learn all sides of a belief, are curious know what best selling book in history has to say without a collection plate being passed, take prophecy to a suffering, anxious world, protect yourself and family from abuse by contemporary gurus who promise a better world but cannot deliver, or simply are curious, then join us for a new subject every week and a weekly discussion as the material was written with you in mind.
Most of the 43 lessons (and more to come) have an easy-to-use, one-page, fingertip guide with general questions, that can be used for home churches, breakfast groups, homeschooling, friendly discussions, personal study, handouts, or in your ministry. Listen to the course online for free. If you wanted to follow along with the the material, download it for a $20 donation. We offer anyone four, free private lessons on any subject they choose by Zoom, Teams, or telephone. No one regrets studying prophecy, and prophecy never disappoints believer or not. If you are looking for honest answers, then we welcome your questions.

What does prophecy encompass?
Many think of prophecy in terms of the future only and is used to flatter ourselves and impress othere, but prophecy involves much more. The following is just the tip of the iceberg of the dimensions of prophecy. It k us:
- why and when God intervenes in human history
- describes society and human nature at a certain period in history
- highlights what the true spiritual battle is, which more than `saving souls`
- divulges things that only God would know
- conveys messages, doctrines, and behaviour of cults and false prophets
- rebuilds faith of those who have been abused or disappointed by religion
- allows atheists to believe in God
- cuts through spiritual deception, religious lies, and imposters
- drives home the truth about doctrines
- touches every pertinent aspect about God, Christ, and the Bible
- is not about a church or a religion
- can be verified and compared
- differentiates itself in depth and dimension compared to the superficiality of false prophets, cults
- started because of fake news and false prophets
- underscores the true spiritual battle missed by many
- links to God’s justice, love, values, and goals
- warns us false prophets and cults are deadly business and come to steal, kill, and destroy
- has an incomparable track record of 1000s of years and 1000s of prophecies
- makes Christ the 10157 (see download)
- is multidimensional, something false prophets cannot copy
- ties together the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation,
- promises freedom, and more
Some characteristics of the spiritual thinkers are those who:
- would like to understand the Bible in-depth from Genesis to Revelation without a hidden agenda
- conclude there must be something more to life than eat, drink, work, sleep, but are not sure what
- wake up one morning realizing their church is not teaching the Christ of the Bible and don't know where to go
- are tired of legalistic, dogmatic churches who don’t realize Christ wants mercy, not sacrifice
- are atheists or agnostics but have never had an honest Bible prophecy discussion without pressure to join a group, hidden agenda, or being preached to by the self-righteous
- bristle at the prosperity Gospel that prospers only the pastor
- want to expose the plethora of death-dealing false prophets, their message, and behaviour
- are not sure if they are in a cult, want to find out, but distrust organized religion
- worship God already and would like to make prophecy their ministry
