Peter, always bold, claimed a lot for his generation: “Yes, and all the prophets, from Samuel and those who follow, as many as have spoken, have also foretold these days” (Acts 3:24). All of them? Really? Perhaps he had talked to the two disciples who walked in defeat to Emmaus…

If we want our preaching to be primitive—like the original preaching of Jesus and the apostles—we must preach about prophecy and how it relates to events in Jesus’ generation. I’m emphasizing this point through Peter’s claim: “All the prophets, from Samuel and those who follow, as many as have spoken,…

We’re used to Peter speaking before he thinks. “Far be it from You, Lord; this shall not happen to You!” (Matt 16:22), he said, earning a stern rebuke from the Lord. Of course, that was before his encounter with the Lord after His resurrection. When we hear him preaching…

A person who has read my book, Inmillennialism: Redefining the Last Days, made the following request: This may be a big ask, but I was hoping that you could give me a fairly comprehensive list of prophetic passages that deal with the end of the Messianic Age. I’m having trouble…
